Rule of Law » White Air Force Vet Prohibited from Registering to Vote Because of Race: "Believe it or not, there is a place where the American flag flies that citizens of particular races are excluded from voting. Citizens not of the chosen race are not allowed to vote in an important election. White and Asian citizens of the United States there are even prohibited from registering to vote for the election. As implausible as it sounds, such is the law on the island of Guam, a territory where the American flag flies and the Voting Rights Act applies, along with the 15th Amendment to the Constitution."

» President Obama: ‘I’ve Made All the Right Choices’ - Big Government: "In his interview Tuesday evening with ABC’s Jake Tapper, President Obama was asked to reflect on the economy and his overall performance as president.

This targeted tax credit of up to $2,500 per year was meant to help cover college expenses for the dependents of those with a maximum adjusted gross income of $80,000, a higher income level that comparable previous programs allowed. Smaller credits are available for those who earn up to $90,000 per year. The new credit is also good for the first four years of college, instead of just the first two."
