Ezra Grant — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 23:59:07 +0000

This little missed piece of nugget came after the Washington Post contacted the school asking for information on The Brat.

Ezra Grant — Thu, 29 Aug 2013 01:57:45 +0000

Dr. Martin Luther King is known worldwide, and it would have been appropriate on this day, fifty years after King’s I Have A Dream Speech when thousands traveled to Washington to remember and celebrate… it would have been fitting to have the political leaders from both sides put away their partisan ideologies and come together […]

Who You Callin’ A Republican?

Blu — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 00:03:10 +0000

Realizing that they are collapsing under the weight of their own foolishness, the Republican Party has begun to sound more and more like “bleeding-heart liberals” than Conservatives. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor was on Meet the Press Sunday afternoon, rattling on about poor and unemployed “Joe Smoe”, who along with his family, suffers silently under this terrible […]

Eric Cantor and the leaders in the Republican party are on a massive outreach program, trying to get the votes of people they’ve actively tried to disenfranchised over the last few elections.

I Think Eric Cantor Stole President Obama’s Speech – Video

Ezra Grant — Wed, 06 Feb 2013 07:00:49 +0000

If you followed politics especially after President Obama won election in 2008, you will recall that the path Republicans decided to take for the first four years of his presidency was to deny Mr. Obama a second term by saying no to everything he tried to do. Needless to say the Republicans Block Party didn’t […]

Ezra Grant — Thu, 23 Aug 2012 15:41:30 +0000

The Republicans would love for you to believe that what Todd Akin said was just something that happened in his brief moment of insanity. That Todd had a moment, a very bad and unfortunate moment. But a quick check of the Congressional voting record of other Republicans found that Mr. Legitimate Rape’s comment was not […]

Ezra Grant — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 17:35:22 +0000

The world watches, as Eric Cantor and Republicans do everything they legally can to defeat this president. They especially fight against things that economists from both sides of the political fence agree will benefit the economy, simply because allowing the economy to flourish means President Obama’s presidency will be a bigger success than what it […]

Eric Cantor Is A Major Hypocrite – The Teaparty vs The Occupiers

Ezra Grant — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:29:27 +0000

This is beginning to become redundant – pointing out the many ways Republicans have proven that they are the party of hypocrites. I can dedicate the entire site to this purpose, and still be able to write multiple blogs a day showing different examples of the party’s deception. “What is infuriating to me is we have elected […]

Ezra Grant — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 22:42:21 +0000

Cantor Prefers Debate Instead Of Helping American Citizens

Ezra Grant — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 22:42:26 +0000

In A Ron Paul Administration, Disaster Victims Are On Their Own

Ezra Grant — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 23:58:11 +0000

Ron Paul is running for President on the Republican ticket. Let’s just say for argument’s sake, that Ron Paul wins his party’s nomination and goes on to win the Presidency in 2012. I know, it’s far-fetched, but let’s just say… If Ron Paul becomes president, his government will not help out when there are natural disasters. […]
