Newt Gingrich probably is as surprized as anyone to find himself the victor in the South Carolina Republican primary. The coastal pundits are tearing their hair out to undermine his win over the well-primed Mitt Romney: Democrats, because Newt undermines their master campaign plan (a.k.a. Occupy Wall Street/class warfare); establishment Republicans because Newt challenges the conventional wisdom...

Chicago Public Schools still fight for the bottom of the heap - aided and abetted, as always, by the teachers’ unions. While Mayor Emanuel appears to be taking the high road by challenging the established bureaucracies running the (failing) city public schools, the forces for the entrenched unions always seem to find new ways to put students last. Two years ago, a movement began to unionize...

G8/NATO/OccupyChicago: who will pay and how much?
Lots to wonder about in the upcoming media and Democrat-base circus - also know as the G8/NATO meetings - this May in Chicago. How will the OccupyChicago moochers fit into the campaign to destroy the Axelrod-annointed GOP candidate, Mitt Romney? Well, it’s pretty obvious who will be paying for all that extra (no longer temporary) police power attached to Mayor Rahmulus: the crony capitalist...

New Trier Township, located on Chicago’s North Shore, might be characterized as a microcosm of the political realm that is reasonable, careful, moderate - and about two decades out of date. The township’s regular Republican organization met today (1.14.12) to endorse candidates in contested elections for the March 21st primary; about 24 people (out of six-plus villages) showed up to...

Check out the video below that gives the rationale for this expression of American free market economic growth. Looks like conservatives are looking more towards Rick Santorum’s candidacy lately. Today, Chicago author Brad Thor endorsed him for president. Thor, who counts William Wallace and Rick Santelli among his own heroes, writes the kind of novels that shine a bright light on...
