The American Heritage Dictionary defines hypocrisy as follows: The professing of beliefs or virtues that one does not possess. In a similar vein, a hypocrite is one who is best defined as an “actor.” Enter stage door right, Michele Bachmann (R-Minn), the three term congresswoman who has done nothing but accuse our President of being [...]

2 comments | Folks, you will have to forgive me in advance for having a de ja vu’ moment here, but CBS has confirmed that the Governor of Texas, Rick Perry (Slick Scary) is going to make his presidential bid official on Saturday. It seems to be happening all over again as yet, another Texas governor attempts to [...] Posted by Mark Bear on August 12, 2011 | Tags: idealogues, xenophobic behavior | Category: Activism, Announcements, Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Deficit, Education, Election 2010, Election 2012, Endorsements, Entertainment, Equality, Family, Humor, Hypocrisy, Idiocy/Lunacy, Insanity, Irony, National Politics, News, Religion, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy, Those Kooky Conservatives! |
One comment | Okay, I have to confess that when I heard S & P downgraded our credit rating last Friday from AAA to AA+, I was quite concerned as evidenced by my previous article. That is, until I researched the matter further shedding some light on the subject. Before I explain what I am getting at here, [...] Posted by Mark Bear on August 10, 2011 | Tags: Credit Downgrade, Credit Rating Agencies, debt | Category: Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Deficit, Election 2010, Election 2012, Equality, Family, Government Waste, History, Humor, Hypocrisy, Idiocy/Lunacy, Insanity, Jobs, National Politics, Social Justice, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy, Those Kooky Conservatives! |
15 comments | While it is not unheard of for the opposing party attempting to gain the White House to place economic woes at the incumbent’s feet, as one surveys the political landscape he or she quickly finds things a bit different this election cycle. At least on previous occasions, the opposing party utilized facts in order to make [...] Posted by Mark Bear on August 7, 2011 | Category: Activism, Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Deficit, Election 2012, Equality, Family, Government Waste, History, Hypocrisy, Insanity, Irony, Jobs, National Politics, News, Original Reporting, Racism, Social Justice, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy, The Environment, Those Kooky Conservatives! |
31 comments | Okay, I will be the first one to admit my utter disillusionment with the final brokered deal by our President. Yet, despite this, I can tell you with some level of certainty, that the Progressive base must exercise caution as they decide how to react to this deal. Last night, while driving on the interstate, [...] Posted by Mark Bear on August 4, 2011 | Category: Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Election 2012, Equality, Featured Posts, Hypocrisy, Idiocy/Lunacy, Insanity, Jobs, Mainstream Media, National Politics, News, Racism, Taxes, Tea Party |
25 comments | Ever since the President, Speaker Boehner, and Majority Leader Reid, reached their “grand compromise,” Americans are weighing in on their feelings regarding the deal struck by the fearsome three ending the debt-ceiling debate, while also averting our Country from defaulting on Her obligations for the first time in history. And I have a bit of sad [...] Posted by Mark Bear on August 3, 2011 | Category: Activism, Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Deficit, Election 2010, Election 2012, Equality, Family, Flip-Flops, Government Waste, History, Hypocrisy, Jobs, Mainstream Media, National Politics, News, Social Justice, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy |
2 comments | It all began with an innocent tenor when the President requested something that was not out of the ordinary, something former President Ronald Regan did seventeen times while in office; raise the debt-ceiling with a clean bill. Of course, that is easier said than done when you are dealing with nearly 70 Freshman Congressmen and [...] Posted by Mark Bear on August 1, 2011 | Category: Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Deficit, Election 2010, Election 2012, Equality, Flip-Flops, Insanity, Jobs, National Politics, News, Social Justice, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy, Those Kooky Conservatives! |
9 comments | The interdependence of people’s goals, and the structure of the situation in which they are going to negotiate, strongly shapes negotiation processes and outcomes. I ought to know since I have spent the majority of my career engaged in negotiations! When the goals of two or more people are interconnected so that only one can [...] Posted by Mark Bear on July 20, 2011 | Category: Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Deficit, Education, Election 2010, Election 2012, Endorsements, Equality, Flip-Flops, Government Waste, Health Care, History, Hypocrisy, Jobs, Mainstream Media, National Politics, News, Polls, Quotes, Social Justice, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy, The Environment, Those Kooky Conservatives! |
3 comments | During the night of the mid-term election, I specifically remember Lawrence O’Donnell from MSNBC, discussing the difficulties the newly elected Speaker of the House, John Boehner, would face regarding passage of a debt-ceiling increase. I imagine not one person, including myself truly understood the significance of what O’Donnell was talking about that night. Perhaps, this was due [...] Posted by Mark Bear on July 15, 2011 | Category: Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Deficit, Education, Election 2010, Election 2012, Equality, Flip-Flops, History, Hypocrisy, Idiocy/Lunacy, Insanity, Irony, Jobs, Mainstream Media, National Politics, News, Polls, Quotes, Social Justice, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy, Those Kooky Conservatives! |
One comment | Last week, you will recall, I provided the following advice to our President: “In other words, Mr. President, divorce yourself from trying to gain the approval of the GOP because the reality is you will never obtain it.” Today, I provide the President with the reason for his divorce: Irreconcilable differences! Let me explain. As preparations for [...] Posted by Mark Bear on July 10, 2011 | Category: Big Government, Broken Promises, Class Warfare, Climate Change, Deficit, Education, Election 2010, Election 2012, Environment, Equality, Insanity, Iraq war, Jobs, National Politics, Polls, Social Justice, Taxes, Tea Party, The Economy, The Environment, Those Kooky Conservatives! |
