What a dilemma we all face. Do we support the new regime in Washington DC and these crazy taxes they’re trying to force down our throats or do we continue standing up for what is right and go down kicking and screaming?
What motivation is there for honest, hard working folks to stay financially responsible? And by financially responsible, I mean paying our bills, mortgages and taxes on time and in full. Why should we bother? When people can get appointed to Cabinet posts having not payed their taxes, does that mean it’s then optional for the rest of us as well? Oh we’ve got change all right.

I was asked this past Thursday morning on Fox News about the impact of President Obama spending the day in New Jersey campaigning for the immensely unpopular sitting governor Jon Corzine. I was asked if it was a good use of the President's time. I was asked if there were bigger things he should be focused on. I was asked if it might not even backfire against Corzine or other candidates in the immediate electoral future. Obama dedicated not just a speech, but the entire day to the Corzine cause.

My response is simple, "It's what he has to do."...
