" With that in mind, Beretta released a statement appeared on their blog yesterday.
The message of the statement is clear:
“The idea now of investing additional funds in Maryland and thus rewarding a Government that has insulted our customers and our products is offensive to us so we will take steps to evaluate such investments in other States. "

Benghazi and IRS Targeting: Politics by Other Means
Benghazi and IRS Targeting: Politics by Other Means | RealClearPolitics:
"What do the Benghazi cover-up and the IRS scandal have in common?
They were both about winning elections, under false pretenses.
Winning elections, after all, is something Barack Obama is good at.
He obviously loves campaigning and delivering grand orations to enormous adoring crowds.
He loves it so much that he flew off to Las Vegas to campaign the day after the first murder of a U.S. ambassador in 33 years."

President Asterisk: Why the Obama IRS scandal may be worse than “a cancer .........

President Asterisk: Why the Obama IRS scandal may be worse than “a cancer on the presidency.”
“No one can deny that Lance Armstrong and Mark McGwire were highly skilled athletes.
But their accomplishments are forever tainted by their use of banned performance-enhancing drugs.
The use of the Internal Revenue Service’s coercive power to suppress dissent against Obama is the political equivalent of steroids.
The history books should record Obama’s re-election with an asterisk to indicate that it was achieved with the help of illicit means. . . .
One thing we have learned from the IRS scandal is that sports journalists are morally superior to political journalists.
Whereas the former understand that cheating is an assault on the basic integrity of the sport, the latter all too often treat it as if it were just part of the game.”

Don't Cry For Me, America: Comparing Argentina And The United States
Don't Cry For Me, America: Comparing Argentina And The United States - Forbes:
"There are similarities beyond the economic realm. Unlike other populist leaders, such as Hitler and Mussolini, Perón did not have belligerent imperialist ambitions. The same can be said about President Obama. His conservative critics argue that he wants to reduce U.S. influence around the world. Moreover, Perón shunned the Argentine founding fathers who favored the free society. Likewise, President Obama is not prone to quoting Madison, Washington, or Jefferson."

$16 Trillion in Debt and Counting...How Did We Get Here?
$16 Trillion in Debt and Counting...How Did We Get Here? - By Andrea Blachford | Michigan Campaign for Liberty:
"So, if you are like me and wonder how in the world we are $16 Trillion in debt and counting, you might want to start looking at spending habits closer to home. We need to admit we have a borrowing problem and then elect representatives who would govern within our county's financial means, demanding less of our federal government.
This kind of spending surely affects our national security. If our economy collapses because of the prevailing “if we don't get them, someone else will” thinking, pathway projects and mini-marinas will be the last things on our minds as families scramble to keep up with soaring food and fuel prices."

"Actually, a larger percentage of Asian attorneys (7 out of approximately 42,336) appeared before SCOTUS last term than that of any other race; but that wasn’t the headline.
The fact that people are trying to turn this number into an illustration of institutional racism is both troubling, and sad.
But if the left really wants to take it up with someone, they should start with the current administration, seeing as how a large chunk of the attorneys who appeared before our Supreme Court were with the office of the Solicitor General – and not one was Black."
