Obama Gives His Favorite Ethnic Group a Slogan

Last update January 14, 2018

Politicians love slogans. Slogans are great for assigning import to things we have heard before, or for making something unpopular seem like a good idea. Not content with simple, catchy phrases like “Winning the Future,” President Obama’s staff has elevated sloganeering to an art.

Georgia’s HB 59 is the Immigration Bill Taxpayers Deserve

Last update November 24, 2017

The Republican takeover of the House was necessary to get the ball rolling. Now smoldering taxpayer anger over Washington’s acceptance of illegal immigration has led states to consider enforcement measures like Georgia’s HB 59.
