Back in the YSU Football heyday of the 1990s, there was talk of expanding Stambaugh Stadium into a first class facility at the I-AA ranks. Well YSU did expand in the late 90s, but nothing like they ‘may’ have planned by judging at the rendering below. Just imagine how nice [...]
Some are calling the current economic situation the “Great Recession,” but I am here to tell you that “you’ve ain’t seen nothing yet.” Who would have thought this 1974 song by Bachman Turner Overdrive would forewarn of a potentially greater economic crisis than we are currently experiencing. This incoming crisis [...]
All Americans should be asking themselves that question after receiving the news the US Government forced General Motors CEO Rick Wagoner to resign.

This guy makes a ton of sense. I’d vote for him for President in a heartbeat. He is the author of “Common Sense.” I present Thomas Paine:
[...]Larry Sabato, who accurately predicted the 2008 election, calls this past week for the Obama Administration their worst week yet. The Administration was in damage control mode today after Obama made a immature remark comparing his bowling score to the Special Olympics. I would never have brought this up, but [...]

As I have do every morning before I go off to school, I watch the first ten minutes of the Today’s Show on the National Barack Channel, NBC. Ever since George W. Bush was elected to a second term in 2004, I have noticed the liberal bias start to show [...]

The Socialist Party candidate for President of the US, Norman Thomas, said this in a 1944 speech:

For the past three decades the Mahoning Valley has become one of the most pessimistic areas in the entire State of Ohio, let alone in this great nation. In that time frame we have had tens of thousands of jobs leave our area, corrupt politician after corrupt [...]
In my short time at Youngstown State I’ve seen and heard some ridiculous things from the far-left professors which flood the entire campus. One of the things I continually here is how ‘Global Warming’ is a grave threat to the Earth and that if we don’t do something quick, life [...]
I had another post set to publish this evening, but it will be put on hold for at least a day. I am outraged at the news that Barack Obama has made the decision to move the US Census from the Dept. of Commerce to the White House where things [...]

There are a number of reasons I am against the proposed Stimulus Package before Congress, but the biggest reason is the price tag attached to it. The proposed Stimulus will cost the American Taxpayers $1,200,000,000,000, that is $1.2 trillion dollars for those of you who trying to [...]

Recently saw one of the best action flicks in a while. “Taken” starring Liam Nesson as a father busting skulls searching for his kidnapped daughter before she is sold into the sex slave trade. This movie has a “Bourne Identy” feel, but is much quicker and fast paced. Slick spy [...]
