The skies are filled with the brooding thickness of a stormy morning. Rain is pounding the steel roof of my office, blurring the image of the world through the window’s glass pane. The vicious flooding on the streets brings with it a renewal of much needed life-nourishing water. The growth of indigenous weeds are rising alongside green blades of new grass through the soaked lawn out front that was browning from the thirst of a drought only days before.

With the needed rain comes a destructive force, as well. Hillsides stripped of ground-cover from last season’s fires are sliding downward, pouring mud onto the neighborhoods below. Creeks are flooding over, and storm drains can’t seem to eliminate the water fast enough from major intersections flooded with impatient traffic carrying bodies that are desperately trying to get to work. Trees have fallen, and automobile accidents have dotted the highways. But perhaps the most destructive part of the storms is the least explored consequence of all.

Disturbing news regarding the power grab; this time by the EPA that’s buried in the Cap & Trade Bill.

After reading yesterday’s headline about Obama’s martial law, I didn’t think there could be anything more outrageous, but here it is: Navy Seals trial moved to Iraq-at the American Thinker.

I was about to write a little while ago about Dick Durbin’s ridiculous call in the email that he sent out- to help out the brain-dead moonbat who is running for Ted Kennedy’s seat in Massachusetts. Durbin’s propaganda machine spewing out emails for the Pelosi crime syndicate in D.C. is fully engaged:
Dear XXXXXX,

The excuse used by the federal government for restrictions on gun ownership, the disallowance of health insurance being sold across state lines, or the restrictions placed by the feds on anything else that crosses state lines is in the U.S. Constitution. Article I, Section 8, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution, also known as the [...]

It’s the naked truth now:  Congress will spend your money to get votes from anyone else, even if it means you and yours will suffer at the hands of a person elected in another state, just so the party in power will be able to claim some victory, while [...]
