Glenn Beck Says This Form of Taxation Is Absolutely ‘Criminal’ | Video | TheBlaze.com

Glenn Beck Says This Form of Taxation Is Absolutely ‘Criminal’ | Video | TheBlaze.com:

"Glenn Beck on Friday condemned the estate tax as absolutely “criminal” in a heated rant on his radio program. Also known as the “death tax,” the IRS describes the estate tax as a tax on “everything you own or have certain interests in at the date of death.”

“That’s criminal!” Beck said heatedly. “I’ve already paid taxes on this! Now you’re going to take [part of] everything that I’ve earned? Everything that I’ve done so I can leave my children in a better situation?”

Finally, some passion from a republican!----Carly Fiorina Was Asked About Pamela Geller. Her Response? "What About The Freaking Terrorists?"

Carly Fiorina Was Asked About Pamela Geller. Her Response? "What About The Freaking Terrorists?" - Chicks on the Right
"I haven't heard a lot of presidential candidates address the foiled terrorist attacks surrounding the Muhammad cartoon contest. 
Either they just haven't spoken up about it or they haven't been asked about it. 
But this answer from Carly Fiorina is 100% on the money. 
Especially since the interviewer tried to corner her into condemning Pamela Geller for hosting the event (which - WHAT? Still?)
Watch. 
And be ready to cheer -
I love how she's all "Pamela Geller? Seriously? You're worried about what she's doing? Free speech takes care of her. But aren't we going to talk about how this was an ATTEMPTED TERRORIST ATTACK? On American soil? Isn't that worth talking about? Just a little?"

Brad Thor in Defense of Pamela Geller: Islam Needs More Direct Challenges, Not Less

Brad Thor in Defense of Pamela Geller: Islam Needs More Direct Challenges, Not Less | TheBlaze.com:
"But despite a litany of barbarism, the West refuses to intellectually confront the ideology fueling Islamic supremacy and its attendant acts of horror.
Worse still, the West has carved out a protected space in the public square that indemnifies the Islamic faith from having to answer for the barbarism committed daily in its name.
We have been so hobbled by political correctness, that even face-to-face with the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks we were more concerned with not offending peaceful Muslims than in calling out their passive complicity in their co-religionists’ actions.
This must end.
It must end before there is another Garland, another Fort Hood, another July 7, 2005 or another Sept. 11, 2001.
We must challenge the Islamic faith and Muslims worldwide to be worthy of their standing in the 21st century.
If yours is truly a religion of peace, then prove it. Reform the Muslim faith so that those who would do violence in the name of Islam are the ones who no longer have any leg to stand on."


No. We do NOT have ‘Unfettered Capitalism’.---175,000 Pages of Federal Regulations

‘Unfettered Capitalism’? 175,000 Pages of Federal Regulations | PJ Tatler
Whenever a liberal like Paul Krugman talks about the American system of “unfettered capitalism” I break out laughing. 
There are currently about 175,000 pages of federal regulations governing anything and everything about American business.
In truth, many regulations have become necessary over the decades. 
Worker safety has benefitted enormously and death and injury rates on the job have plummeted in the last 50 years. 
Our air and water are cleaner, consumer products are safer, and predatory capitalists have largely been sidelined.
But it goes without saying that agencies like the EPA are out of control, that the IRS has become even more overbearing, and that the dizzying array of federal compliance rules make it possible to violate the law without even knowing it.
AEI scholar Charles Murray has a book coming out next week titled By the People: Rebuilding Liberty Without Permission
In this extended excerpt in the Wall Street Journal, he offers a novel solution for dealing with many of these regulations: ignore them.
