Progressive Policies at Walt Disney Risk Damage to its Brand Image, says Free Enterprise Project

Shareholders Urged to Challenge CEO Bob Iger at Disney’s Annual Meeting

Washington, D.C.: On occasion of the Disney annual shareholder meeting today, the Free Enterprise Project is warning Disney shareholders that CEO Robert Iger’s progressive political bias puts investors at risk.

The Free Enterprise Project is a program of the National Center for Public Policy Research, a Disney shareholder.

“Iger’s rejection of several offers to sell the distribution rights of the ABC-TV docudrama The Path to 9/11 is a sign that his personal political views are affecting business decisions,” said Free Enterprise Project director Dr. Tom Borelli, who has raised the issue personally with Iger at past shareholder meetings. “In addition, Disney’s close ties to progressive Democrats, including President Obama, may have resulted in ABC News’ special access to cover the president’s health care policy in a day-long media blitz last year.” Read more

Buy Global Warming Insurance – Open Air w/Tom Remington

*Editor’s Note:* Within minutes of recording this show, the construction crews moved in outside my office hammering and drilling. I apologize if there are distracting noises.

The Heritage Foundation is warning people, particularly corporations to not buy global warming insurance. Even as a member I have to disagree. I think everyone should buy it and I’ll tell you how we can use the money and time of the insurance companies to do away with the nonsense of man-made climate change fear mongering.

Elliot Spitzer Attack on U.S. Chamber of Commerce is Left-Wing Politics at its Worst

Statement of Free Enterprise Project Director Tom Borelli

Washington D.C.: This statement was issued today by Tom Borelli, Ph.D., director of the Free Enterprise Project:

“Elliot Spitzer’s commentary in Slate (“Chamber of Horrors“) calling for state pension funds to pressure corporations to leave the U.S. Chamber of Commerce reminds us of his past efforts to climb the political ladder on the backs of business executives. Read more

What Is Government Hiding About Obamacare Costs?

I certainly don’t pretend that I can understand all of what’s in any and all proposed health care bills that have been proposed on Capital Hill. What should alarm us all is that nobody on the Hill seems too willing to reveal what their bills will mean for each of us as individuals and families. Why is that? Do they have something to hide? I would suspect so.

The first thing we need to realize is that we should consider only what comes out of the mouths of politicians as nothing but lies. The second thing is whatever we are being told is being presented as a bill is not – far from it. For example, the Finance Committee led by Chairman Max Baucus of Montana sent a proposed health care bill to the Congressional Budget Office for analysis. Whether we can believe anybody or not remains to be seen but we have been told by the House Minority Leader, John Boehner, that from the time that the proposal was sent to the CBO and the analysis came back, over 70 amendments were added to the proposal. We have also been told that many of those amendments came from members of that committee and the amendments were exemptions for their constituencies. Read more

Sarah Palin Questions Financing Brazilian Oil

Yesterday, I asked readers if they shouldn’t be questioning the idea that Barack Obama seemed willing to ship $2 billion of your money off to Brazil to finance the state-run oil business Petrobras. Did that happen?……I mean the questioning.

I’m not the only one who’s questioning the move. So is former Alaska Governor, Sarah Palin.

These environmentalists are putting our nation in peril and forcing us to rely on unstable and hostile foreign countries. Mr. Obama can stop the extreme tactics and exert proper government authority to encourage resource development and create jobs and health benefits in the U.S.; instead, he chooses to use American dollars in Brazil that will help to pay the salaries and benefits for Brazilians to drill for resources when the need and desire is great in America.

Move To Washington, D.C. – Money Grows On Trees And Other Stuff

Have you heard? The great “Cash for Clunkers” program was such a success, the House voted to put another $2 billion of your tax money into the coffers to give rebates back to anyone interested in buying a different car.

I am considering a move to Washington, D.C. because evidently money grows on trees down there. My biggest fear though is that there is something in the water that makes you incredibly stupid.

Call it a scam, call it a shell game, call it what you wish. Some would even say it is unconstitutional, at least that’s what the courts said when FDR tried slaughtering pigs and burning cotton. Read more

American capitalism gone with a whimper

Note: In case you missed this when it first came out.

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American descent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists. Read more

African-Americans Favor Delay on Climate Change Legislation

38% Believe Resulting Job Losses Would Fall Heaviest on Blacks

56% Say Congress Fails to Adequately Take Into Account Their “Economic and Quality of Life” Concerns

Democrats risk alienating one of their most important constituencies by advancing the Waxman-Markey climate change bill this week or any time before an economic recovery is underway, according to the non-partisan National Center for Public Policy Research.

The National Center for Public Policy Research bases this conclusion on the results of a nationwide poll it commissioned of African-Americans. The poll, released today, suggests anxiety in the black community over Waxman-Markey-style regulations. Read more
