This student in Duncanville High School got tired of his “teacher” merely handing out packets, and decided to speak out.

You may not be able to do much about a $16 trillion debt at the national level but you can do quite a bit about a potential $1 billion debt in your own backyard. Read more about Voters Beware!
The Congressional Committee hearings on Benghazi yesterday were some of the most riveting since the Reagan era. There was testimony from personnel intimate with the details—who knew those who were killed on a first name basis – who had been in or were in Libya during the attacks—and who came to tell the truth.

During the Carter era and stagflation of the 70’s, our economy may have sucked, but at least the entrepreneurs were busy starting news business. Apple and Microsoft began in the 70’s before they exploded in 80’s under the Reagan era. Reagan's economic policy liberated the entrepreneurs and as they say, the rest is history as the United States experienced a quarter of a century of economic growth.
