Washington, DC —What is past is prologue. It won’t be any different this time around but government has more effective weapons to use on its own population. Both Bush and Obama gave the crooks running Wall Street, banks and some Michigan automakers bailouts. They handed out loads golden parachutes to politically connected criminals that have gotten invested in off-shore bank accounts, gold, diamonds and better vacation properties. American taxpayers on the other hand hemorrhage their jobs, homes, retirement and insurance policies because of extortionate taxation that has destroyed their businesses. We have only one way to revive our economy. We must quickly force government to roll back its growth to 1980 levels. Then, government should be slowly reduced to 1960 levels. Our national defense and foreign aid budget should be reallocated to deporting illegal aliens that have bankrupted our schools and medical providers. We could suspend all employer taxes for those businesses that...

Washington, DC —Before Janet Napolitano left Arizona as Governor she entered into a massive corrupt contract with a company called Redflex for robot speed cameras on the highways. Redflex had great lobbyists that knew how to grease the political wheels to fleece Arizona’s drivers out of millions of dollars. Thankfully, Napolitano is gone and now so are her cameras. Left behind are the sordid campaign contributions and junkets at five-star hotels for Arizona’s politicians. For the robot camera system to work, longstanding rules barring hearsay evidence were sidestepped to allow this so-called evidence to be used in courtrooms. This was and is a violation of the Fifth and Sixth Amendments of our Constitution. Politicians thrive on the power of money under their control. Few politicians avoid special perks and corruption when it comes to government contracts. Politicians and their bureaucrats love making government grow because of simple corruption too. They can abuse the patronage syst...

Washington, DC —Anyone who ever thought that Barack Obama was going to improve freedom and liberty in America was horribly mistaken. Many Liberals think that those Ultra-Left-Wingers are somehow the guardians of our Civil Liberties and they are and were gravely mistaken. The Patriot Act was the product of the Liberal George Bush Administration, not Conservatives. Real Conservatives loathed Bush for his Mideast war adventures, his creation of Homeland Security and of course the Patriot Act. Many people voted for Obama thinking he'd undo some of the Bush damage to freedom, liberty and of course the national debt. I also have to say that that pretend Republican John McCain was a pathetic offering by the GOP for a Presidential candidate. Americans would lose the 2008 election no matter who won. As for any hope of undoing any damage to America brought on by Bush, Obama has made things substantially worse. Obama kept nearly every rotten Bush policy in place and he has broadened an...

Mexico, City, Mexico —Mexico is run by a corrupt and pathetic group of criminals. Government whores thrive financially with the drug trade and the obscene profits as they conspire with the criminals. Caught up are some police and drug rivals into a violent world of mass murder. The guns involved are often of German and American manufacture. They are supplied to the gangsters, not by American gun dealers but Mexican government officials. The guns are either sold or stolen in raids on government installations. Most of the weapons are fully automatic rather than the semi-automatic variety available at American gun dealers. The Mexican government is whining about the guns that fall in the hand of “unapproved” drug cartels. They claim that is the result of American gun freedom. If Mexico does not like American freedom they are free to erect along their border. Of course the gun rights haters living in the United States want to use Mexico’s mess as a reason to take freedom from America...

Joliet, IL —Behind bars is an American citizen whose been there for nearly one and one-half years. He is innocent having never been convicted of so much as littering in his life. With paper thin evidence, bail for this man has been set at $20 million. Honorably retired Bolingbrook police sergeant Drew Peterson stands accused having been indicted for murder on mere hearsay evidence. This is the very kind of evidence that the Fifth and Sixth Amendment to our sacred Bill of Rights has precluded from trials for 234 years. Illinois politicians have created a new law to lower the bar of justice to mirror The People’s Court of Germany in 1943 . Peterson has by all accounts been a great father to his children and at the same time a lousy husband throughout four marriages. Being a lousy husband does not make a killer. One estranged wife died apparently in the safety her, locked home in her own bathtub. That death was investigated and determined to be an accident by the coroner and police. Th...

We all know too many out of work folks now for sure. Especially hard hit are those at or approaching middle age. These are the very same people that just in the last few years had promising jobs and put their savings into beautiful homes that they have lost or are losing. Americans can’t afford to keep their children in college or spend money their neighborhood businesses need to keep their doors open. Resumes are everywhere but jobs have dried up. Lots of foolish People with jobs are still spending with the blind faith that somehow things will be better soon. They can’t or won’t face the inevitable reality of the financial collapse of the free world. Law firms everywhere are seeing their clients retainers evaporate and but for debtor’s lawyers the legal industry is getting to the breaking point. Criminal law is slowing down because financial resources are drying up and cases are quietly not being prosecuted. People are getting desperate as their worlds and businesses are crashing...

Phoenix, AZ —After leaving Chicago to open my detective agency in Phoenix I learned that over-reporting crime was all the rage in this city. This sent me into a police culture shock. I had spent my prior years learning that as a policeman my job was to kill crime with my pencil rather than a gun. The City of Chicago wanted to create an illusion of low crime and at the same time show our uncanny ability to solve the more serious crimes at a much higher rate than the national average. Crime reporting nationwide by police is done through the Uniform Crime Reports made to the FBI . There are the more serious Part One Crimes and then there are the lesser Part Two crimes. The whole thing becomes complicated with those abused, wasted and mismanaged federal funds created and maintained during 50 years of political progressives controlling Congress. The most common examples for Chicago cops are as follows. 1. You respond to a call of a burglary and find no suspects or viable leads to solve ...
