LARRY'S WIRE<><>Opinions on politics, government and our culture<><> A Blog for Our Times!: Burton's Wall
http://larryswire.blogspot.com/2011/01/burtons-wall.html
Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Tuesday, January 25, 2011. Indiana Congressman Dan Burton is continuing his 25-year battle to have a glass safety wall constructed in the House Chamber to separate the visitor gallery from the floor of the House. First and foremost, we live in dangerous times. When the Capitol was built, the potential danger to legislators was single shot weapons of dubious accuracy. Hand explosives were possible, but not likely. A congre...Since the...

LARRY'S WIRE<><>Opinions on politics, government and our culture<><> A Blog for Our Times!: Labor Blew a Billion
http://larryswire.blogspot.com/2010/11/labor-blew-billion.html
Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Monday, November 08, 2010. Labor Blew a Billion. While the Democrats whine, and the press reports, about excessive corporate expenditures and secret funding, it is the spreading around of big bucks by big labor that should be of concern. This year, it is said that the major unions spent more than one billion dollars in this election cycle. Certainly the amount of money is noteworthy, but it is the source that is most troubling. Virtu...

LARRY'S WIRE<><>Opinions on politics, government and our culture<><> A Blog for Our Times!: Things look better already. A GOP Victory Dividend?

Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Monday, November 08, 2010. Things look better already. A GOP Victory Dividend? One of the immediate economic benefits of the Republican resurgence is the shift from pessimism to optimism –- or at least less pessimism. Consumer and business optimism is, to some extent, a self-fulfilling prophesy. Purchasing, investing, hiring, producing are all risk-based decisions – relying heavily on the perception of the future. Right now, the game...

LARRY'S WIRE<><>Opinions on politics, government and our culture<><> A Blog for Our Times!: Politicization of a Tragedy
http://larryswire.blogspot.com/2011/01/politicization-of-tragedy.html
Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Saturday, January 22, 2011. Politicization of a Tragedy. One could expect the strident left to politicize the tragic shooting in Arizona in shameless effort to demonize the conservative majority in America. I am, however, greatly bothered by the general media’s propensity to serve as spokesperson for the radical left. No matter how nonsensical the left’s accusations were, the media gave them credibility by trumpeting the “...

http://larryswire.blogspot.com/2011/01/no-more-post-speech-autographs.html
Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Thursday, January 27, 2011. No more post-speech autographs, puleeeeeez! I am not sure when it started, but I am sure it should be ended. I am referring the President of the United States signing autographs on the floor of the Congress as he exits the chamber. It defines the word “tacky.”. Even worse, though, is the gaggle of legislators begging for his signature on their souvenir programs. These are supposed to be serious minded ...

LARRY'S WIRE<><>Opinions on politics, government and our culture<><> A Blog for Our Times!: April 2010
http://larryswire.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Monday, April 19, 2010. Of human bondage . liberal style. I was pondering our current economic and political situation and for some reason the term "slaves of the state" popped into my mind. The key to any slavery is that the benefits of your labor are confiscated for the benefit of the slave master, first and foremost - and subsequently doled out to those who support the system. In most cases, you, the peasant, receive only the ...

Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Tuesday, November 09, 2010. White House Press Secretary Now Creating (bad) News. In what can only be described as supreme arrogance and hubris, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs got into a very heated, and somewhat physical, altercation with Indian security officials during President Obama’s state visit. This threw Gibbs into a highly public rage. Gibbs angrily inquired, “You gonna break my foot, now? Rather than call his bluf...

Opinions on politics, government and our culture. A Blog for Our Times! Monday, November 08, 2010. Speaker Pelosi – Arrogant or Stupid? When I suggest that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi might be stupid in the headline, I do not mean a lack of common intelligence – maybe more a lack of common sense. I am referring to the kind of stupidity which results in very intelligent people not seeming to see reality very. There are two moments that define the obscenity of this woman. The first is when she marched t...
