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 […]
This new flap about gun owner’s support for Trump is about as low as you can go. They know they can’t attack the principles that Trump stands for so they attack him personally. Hillary’s policies will be four more years of Obama’s policies which means we will never dig ourselves out of the hole they […]
Brad Little recently filed to run for Governor of Idaho, in 2018. In a recent interview with Little Nathan Brown @ magicvalley.com wrote an article titled “Little talks Trump, governing philosophy”. After reading the article which was evidently a self-serving piece to promote his bid for Governor, we didn’t find much of anything that would […]
We would like to revisit a subject that we think is important to the taxpayers of Idaho. The Department of Commerce Tax Reimbursement Incentive program became effective on July 1, 2014. The State offered a tax credit of up to 30% on income, payroll and sales taxes for up to 15 years. The requirements are: […]
Tea Party Bob’s Comments on the Thursday morning Kevin Miller Show 580KIDO I have enormous respect for Senator Cruz, and it is unfortunate that he did not endorse Donald Trump after making a pledge to do so before the primary. As you know, I had thought all along that Cruz would have made a great […]
The U.S. is at the bottom of the list when it comes to food quality and safety. Our food supply is constantly being tainted with pesticides and herbicides which leave residues not just on the plants but in the ground they grow in. Roundup is one of those dastardly chemicals sprayed by the millions of […]
What is it about Trump that he always seems to hit the proverbial nail on the head? Our lame duck president took another trip to Europe for a visit with the NATO Alliance only to tell them what Donald Trump has been saying since April of this year. The President chided the many members of […]
