The real loser in this presidential election wasn’t Hillary Clinton but the entire Western Mainstream media. Just in case anyone hasn’t noticed they aren’t letting up on their criticism of our president elect although I hear they took a good dressing down at Trumps meeting with them. They’re claiming everything from chaos in the transition […]
The promotion by Glenn Beck and others pushing Evan McMullin as an independent candidate is about as unrealistic as you can get. Beck is still upset with Trump for not acknowledging him and appearing on his program. When you look at things in perspective, isn’t Trump a default third party candidate? He is only recently […]
We had an opportunity to interview Senator Mike Crapo this week to find out the reason why he withdrew his support for Donald Trump and then reversed himself and said he would vote for Mr. Trump. Mike has been a supporter of conservative values for as long as we have known him and was even […]
Ladies and Gentlemen, children of all ages before your very eyes is the “Greatest Show on Earth”. In ring number 1 we have the jackasses. In ring number 2 the Elephants and in the center ring we have our candidates and the Ring Master for our show Donald J. Trump. Mr. Trump is a master […]
Just a few words on Glenn Beck’s comments on the Charlie Rose Show. We all know Glenn Beck is a Cruz guy and is also upset because Trump wouldn’t come on his show. I don’t think it goes any further then a sour grapes attitude as a reason to beat up Trump. On this order […]
We just received Brad Little’s latest piece of propaganda in the mail today, and it reminded me that we hadn’t written part II of our 3 part series on Brad Lite for Governor. So with no further ado, let’s get down to it. Brad starts his letter off by telling us how he is going […]
The Mountain Home students are only copying what is happening with sports figures, Hollywood stars and overpaid recording Divas who couldn’t recite the 1st amendment if you put it in front of them. The superintendent of this school should be exercising control at the school and redirecting the students’ energy to understanding what they are […]
Monday, August 29th, I spent an hour at the special committee meeting on Medicaid Expansion and listened to Dr. Jim Brook speak about how he has run a family practice in Idaho Falls for thirteen years where many of his patients fall into the Medicaid Gap. Dr. Brook has run his family practice without accepting […]
Being born in the 1940’s I have had the advantage of seeing quite a bit in my life in terms of change. One of those is the slow but sure change in church attendance, and the slow but sure change in moral and ethical values. Some call it the decline of religiosity. If you look […]
We will be the first to admit that we have had our druthers about some of the past votes that Congressman Labrador has made, but he appears to have retrieved his conservative pants from the cleaners and has shown a rather solid streak of proper conservative voting in the past year. It is unfortunate that […]
Many of our readers have probably been wondering why we have not gotten on the bandwagon of the alleged sordid affair between Senator Jim Guthrie of District 28 and Representative Christy Perry of District 11 which has been the subject of several internet stories. Or maybe you just don’t know about it because it hasn’t […]
The reason for so much controversy over Free Trade Agreements like TPP and Trade Deficits is that economists, and for that matter legislators and their advisors, have lost perspective since the many changes that have taken place since the 2001 recession. Explaining the trade deficit: When trade deficits occur during periods when we are below […]
