For most Americans the question isn’t whether or not Herman Cain would make a good president but is, rather, “who the heck is Herman Cain?” Well, let this serve as your introduction to the businessman, turned radio talk-show host, turned 2012 GOP hopeful.
Cain has been a Tea Party mainstay since the early days of the movement and can give a heck of a rally speech. He’s able to easily invoke good business sense, low taxes, Tea Party principles, and highly patriotic themes in speeches that always brings conservatives to their feet in applause. But outside the Tea Party circuit he’s not as well known.
Cain is a little beter known in Atlanta, Georgia, at least by 300,000 listeners of WSB radio where he hosted a radio show for several years (until Feb. of 2011). From this platform Cain got involved as a Tea Party speaker.

Illinois’ Democrat Governor Pat Quinn has signed the so-called Mainstreet Fairness Bill brought to him by the Illinois General Assembly. The bill
Illinois Congressman Peter Roskam (R, 6th District) has really climbed the ladder of leadership since the 2010 elections. He went from Congressman in the minority party in DC to the Chief Deputy Whip of the majority Republican Party riding the GOP wave that overtook the Hill last November.
Last night we reported that the Wisconsin State Senate separated from the budget bill the curbs on government unions that Governor Scott Walker campaigned on achieving and passed it out of committee for a vote by the full Senate. Today, in a smashing success for Wisconsin Republicans, the senate
You know that an American administration has proven useless and ineffective for supporting liberty and freedom in oppressed countries when even France… France… takes the lead in recognizing a struggling, independent liberty movement.

At least the GOP has been civil during this whole debate. This is not something that the wild-eyed, hatemongers on the left of the union thugs can say. Well, here are some elected GOP officials in Indiana trying to lighten the mood a bit with a spoof on the old John Denver song “Take Me Home, County Road.”

Journolister and Washington Post writer Ezra Klein is another one of those liberals in the elite Old Media trying to pretend that there is no Islam in terrorism these days. He’s also another one of those who, in the face of reality, hyperbolically say that Christians are somehow just as prone to terrorism as Muslims. If only he could find any of that terrorism, he might have some veracity on the issue.
As of yesterday’s debut of 
You can only serve one master and Democrats have chosen unions over the people. Proof of this is once again seen in the
