Governor of Ohio		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate John Kasich
John Kasich
The sitting Governor of Ohio has enjoyed stunning political success over his life, and he’s hoping to ride it all the way to the White House in 2016. His incomplete rejection of Obamacare has put him on the outs with the Tea Party, but other Republicans are likely to back his strong conservative policies.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Attorney and Certified Public Accountant		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Brooks Cullison
Brooks Cullison
A man of faith for whom addressing the threat of radical Islam is Job One, but Brooks Cullison also worries about the abused and destitute in the US and the high volume of illegal immigrant traffic crossing the border with Mexico. Support for education is another issue on which he feels strongly.

Businesswoman and Former CEO of Hewlett-Packard		 Declared Republican Presidential Candidate Carly Fiorina
Carly Fiorina
The only well-known woman running for the Republican nomination in 2016, Carly Fiorina is a unique political figure. Her business experience and conservative principles make her attractive to the right, but past difficulties and failures could haunt her moving forward.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Author		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Andy Martin
Andy Martin
On the surface, Andy Martin is a pretty straightforward conservative with little standing out about him. He’s got a colorful past, though, filled with vexatious litigation and accusations of being an anti-semite. He has sued the State of Hawaii for the release of Barack Obama’s birth certificate.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Entrepreneur		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Esteban Oliverez
Esteban Oliverez
Esteban Oliverez seeks to emulate what he considers the wiser aspects of both Republican and Democratic doctrine while discarding the nonsense, but he generally comes down on the political left. Nevertheless, many centrists may feel an attraction to his policies, which avoid straying far to either side of the spectrum.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Creative Dreamer		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Michael Bickelmeyer
Michael Bickelmeyer
An eccentric fellow who enjoys coming up with some very creative inventions, Bickelmeyer is running for the GOP nomination in 2016. He has a very dim view of terrorists and drug traffickers – in fact, he wants to deploy weapons to fry them from orbit.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Business-owner and Veterans Advocate		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Jim Hayden
Jim Hayden
Not content to sit idly by while the nation slips further away from our founding documents, Jim Hayden has announced his candidacy for President. This self-described “constitutional conservative” is making his second run for the presidency following an unsuccessful bid in 2012.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Former Governor of Florida		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Jeb Bush
Jeb Bush
Florida’s only Republican two-term Governor, Jeb Bush is a heavyweight political contender who comes from a family of presidents. His left-leaning ideologies make him too liberal for the taste of some in his party, however, and his lineage could be hindrance rather than help.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Water Treatment Operator (Retired)		 Declared Republican Presidential Candidate James C. Mitchell, Jr.
James C. Mitchell, Jr.
Jim Mitchell, Jr is a pro-life, pro-gun rights conservative from Illinois. He’s got a bone to pick with crime, and his methods are as novel as they are aggressive: mandatory military service for young people to starve off gang recruitment, and free government-distributed narcotics to collapse the illegal drug trade.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Woman of Faith		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Shawna Sterling
Shawna Sterling
Shawna Sterling has opinions all her own, even on matters which might not generally be considered up for debate.

Otherwise, she is generally conservative, with a strong faith and strict opposition to abortion.

Physician, Author and Citizen Politician		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Dr. Ben Carson

Rand Paul

Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Businessman and veteran		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Michael Petyo
Michael Petyo
A “business first” fiscal conservative with a very optimistic view of the role played by corporations in generating wealth, Michael Petyo is himself a business owner who feels the United States has lost its way economically and that relaxed regulation on the private sector is the solution.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
U.S. Senator from Florida		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Marco Rubio
Marco Rubio
Marco Rubio is definitely on the short list of names for Republican frontrunner. Being himself of Cuban heritage, he enjoys strong support among the important Latino demographic, in addition to holding solid conservative principles that make him eminently likeable to the Republican constituency.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Veteran and volunteer spokesperson with Americans For Fair Taxation (AFFT)		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Kerry Bowers
Kerry Bowers

Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Pastor		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate George Bailey
George Bailey
George Bailey has spent much of his life preaching the gospel, but he’s had a rich and successful career outside the ministry as well. He’s a solid conservative pretty much across the board. Bailey is unfortunately saddled with a number of health problems, but he doesn’t let them keep him down.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Army child and business owner		 Declared Republican Presidential Candidate Skip Andrews
Skip Andrews
“Skip” Andrews is a diverse candidate who probably has at least one opinion to please anyone. Few politicians are able to satisfy both a pro-legalization marijuana advocate and a staunch pro-lifer. Of course, this also means most would object to a majority of his platform.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Veteran and Pastor		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate K. Ross Newland
K. Ross Newland
It’s hard to disagree with what K. Ross Newland wants to do as President – there’s so darn little of it. He believes in limited government that leads by influence rather than mandate, while his strong Christian faith brings him to call for generous tithing that would allow churches to practice large-scale charity.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
American Progressive		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Eric Cavanagh
Eric Cavanagh
With a platform that generally aims to the left, Eric Cavanagh nevertheless has a number of right-leaning ideas, including a 100% porn tax. He also favors “mandatory expungement”: Six months after being convicted of a serious crime, your record is wiped clean. Even minor offenses would be forgotten after 3 months.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Former Governor of Virginia		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Jim Gilmore
Jim Gilmore
Jim Gilmore has ruffled conservative feathers with his abortion positions, but there is no doubting his right-wing tendencies on a number of other issues. He has also achieved the closest analogue to filling the Oval Office – governing a state – giving him the resume to back up his potential aspirations.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
U.S. Senator from South Carolina		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Lindsey Graham
Lindsey Graham
The former Colonel with the USAF JAG unit has been one of the most recognized Republican faces in the post-2012 election era. However, his reputation as a compromise broker in Congress has taken a hit over his recent conversion into a foreign policy hawk.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Former combat pilot and current airline captain		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Chris Hill
Chris Hill
Chris Hill is a combat veteran who served as a pilot during Desert Storm. Although he is running on the Republican ticket, some of his leanings are at odds with those of the GOP, including his “Living Wage” plan and his support for labor unions and recognition of gay marriages.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Governor of New Jersey		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Chris Christie
Chris Christie
Chris Christie tells it like it is and doesn’t care whom he offends – even when he gets in trouble for being nice. More than a few people on all sides have surely used his portrait as a dartboard, but he’s earned a lot of respect for his fearless tongue, and Republicans appreciate his conservative ideology.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Businessman		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Bartholomew James Lower
Bartholomew James Lower
With a passion for the installation of a widespread solar power infrastructure and hydroponic farming, Bartholomew Lower isn’t losing friends on the left. He’s a Republican, however, with harsh views on illicit drug use to match, potentially winning him friends among conservatives as well.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Governor of Wisconsin		 Declared Republican Presidential Candidate Scott Walker
Scott Walker
Gov. Walker’s proposed Wisconsin Act 10 triggered a wave of controversy that forced a recall election in his second year in office. However, Gov. Walker prevailed and achieved the distinction of becoming the country’s first governor to survive a recall election.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Former Governor of Texas and 2012 presidential candidate		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Rick Perry
Rick Perry
After his ultimately underwhelming presidential bid in 2012, Gov. Perry, the longest serving Texas governor in history, announced a 2016 presidential bid at an event hosted by his political action committee, RickPAC, on June 4, 2015.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Common-Sense Leader		 Declared Republican Presidential Candidate Jefferson Sherman
Jefferson Sherman
He’d rather talk about America’s problems and their solutions than talk about himself, but he’s got a lot to say. Jefferson Sherman has three “core goals” for his administration, should it come to pass, focusing on job creation, honorable foreign policy, and reduced government.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Entrepreneur, innovator, limited government advocate		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Brian Russell
Brian Russell
Brian Russell is a successful entrepreneur who believes that implementing sound economic policy should be the government’s top priority. He also supports a strong military and foreign policy that presents the USA as the true leader in the free world.

A wealthy business tycoon and well-known American personality, Donald Trump brings a dour attitude that never fails to entertain. He has channeled his notoriety into a number of outlets, now including a 2016 presidential run.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Businessman and former IRS Commissioner		 Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate Mark Everson
Mark Everson
A strong conservative with an extremely dim view of large banks, Mark Everson calls the integrity of mainstream politicians into question and accuses them of catering to monied special interests. He strongly believes a President should serve only a single term.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Former Governor of New York		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate George Pataki
George Pataki
A three-term Governor of New York State with an impressive political career besides, George Pataki is a red Republican who has found success in blue country. His fiscal policies are pleasing enough to the GOP base, but his stance on social issues may leave something to be desired.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
U.S. Senator from Texas		 Declared Republican Presidential Candidate Ted Cruz
Ted Cruz
The Harvard and Princeton-educated attorney once served as the Domestic Policy Advisor to former president George W. Bush. Noted for his formidable oratory skill, Senator Cruz is viewed by some as one of the intellectual leaders of the tea party movement.
Declared 2016 Republican Presidential Candidate
Engineer and perennial candidate		 Declared Republican 2016 Candidate Jack Fellure
Jack Fellure
A stubborn refusal to say “die” is one of the hallmarks of Jack Fellure, who’s been running for President every four years since 1988. He’s a dauntlessly religious man and a rock-solid conservative, advocating alcohol prohibition and the criminalization of homosexuality, among other right-wing positions.

The slaughter of Christians at the hands of the Islamic State just reached a pinnacle today as a video has emerged which purportedly shows the militant group beheading 21 kidnapped Egyptian Christians in Libya.

MASS Beheading Of 21 Christians At Once, ISIS Declares Bold

The Christian men dressed in the signature orange jumpsuits, which have become synonymous with impending death, are seen kneeling on a beach before being forced down and beheaded. NBC News reported that an earlier caption in the original video indicated the location of the slaughter was “Wilayat Tarabulus by the Mediterranean Sea,” which means it could have been filmed near Tripoli.

Bowe Berghdal gives his first message to the media, he has something to say to Obama

 News & Politics

Bowe Berghdahl hasn’t had any interactions with the media since he was traded for 5 of the most dangerous terrorist in the world.

He has now sent a message through his new lawyer, Eugene Fidell, who told  The Daily Beast that “Sergeant Bergdahl is deeply grateful to President Obama for saving his life.”

His life doesn’t look like it was in much danger to me…

Screen Shot 2014-07-14 at 4.31.53 PM

Meanwhile, Bergdahl is now a “normal soldier” again.

Several of Bergdahl’s platoon mates, including Army Sgt. Matt Vierkant, one of Bergdahl’s former platoon mates, responded:

“We know that he deserted.  So I don’t really see with all the evidence against him . . . how they can just send him back to active duty like nothing’s gone on and give him a desk job, like they said, and just let him walk around in the public after he deserted and left us, left his brothers-in-arms.”

The cover-up is in full effect, ladies and gentlemen. The Left’s totally incompetent and unqualified dear leader Barack Obama cannot, I repeat, CANNOT look bad on this terrible, politically-drive trade-off.

 

Cop Reaches into a Moving Vehicle to Try and Grab This Guy’s Camera

July 9, 2014

A video that was just posted to youtube, shows a Massachusetts State Trooper assaulting a man for filming a roadside car accident.

The passenger in the vehicle is merely filming the side of the road with his phone as they drive by.

Then, out of nowhere, this state trooper reaches into the car and tries to grab his camera!

 

What would the cop have done if he would have gotten the camera? Why would he think trying to grab the camera was justified?

Just what the heck was this cop thinking? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

We don't negotiate with Terrorists

After agreeing to release 5 Taliban terrorists from Guantanamo Bay, we find out the Obama Administration has been holding talks with the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas. The US should NOT negotiate with terrorists!

U.S. soil

This soldier in Iraq asked his wife to send him dirt (U.S. soil), fertilizer, and some grass seed so that he can have the sweet aroma, and feel the grass grow beneath his feet. When the men of the squadron have a mission that they are going on, they take turns walking through the grass and the American soil — to bring them good luck. Of all the things he could have asked his wife to send to him from home…he asked for American soil. Thank you to the men and women of the United States Armed Forces for volunteering to protect us from those that wish harm upon us. Please feel free to share with others.

Judge Tells Attorney “I’ll Beat Your Ass

June 3, 2014 8:15 PM / Leave a comment


A war of words between a judge and attorney in Florida ended after the judge allegedly punched the attorney in the head.

Judge John Murphy of Brevard County, Florida, challenged veteran public defenderAndrew Weinstock to a fight on Monday, and it was all caught on tape and obtained by WFTV.

The station reports that Murphy pressured Weinstock during court proceedings to make his client waive his right to a speedy trial.

“I’m not waiving,” Weinstock can be heard telling the judge.

The two men, seemingly frustrated with one another, start to get heated.

“You know, if I had a rock, I would throw it at you right now,” Murphy shoots back. “Stop pissing me off!”

Murphy tells Weinstock to sit down.

“I have a right to be here,” Weinstock says to the demand.

“If you wanna fight, let’s just go out back and I’ll beat your ass!” Murphy can be heard saying. Weinstock then walks away from the camera.

In the hallway and out of view from the courtroom cameras, Murphy allegedly grabbed Weinstock by the collar and punched him in the head, according to WGHP.

“You want to f**k with me?” one of the men is heard shouting during the brawl.

Two deputies broke up the altercation. Murphy then returned to the courtroom to applause, saying, “I will catch my breath eventually. Man, I’m an old man.”

Public Defender Blaise Trettis told Florida Today that Weinstock did not return to the courtroom, and that criminal charges won’t be pursued.

Weinstock was reassigned to another area so he and Murphy wouldn’t interact with one another.

The public defender’s office told WFTV that the incident will be reported to the Florida Bar.
