We’ve previously pointed out that the teacher strikes in East Multnomah County have been coordinated behind the scenes with Occupy Portland and the International Socialists Organization: Oregon Save Our Schools – Affiliated With Socialists And Occupy? At first, it appeared that the OEA wanted at least to maintain some separation …

By now you’ve all seen the videos of the melee that took place in downtown Seattle last week. But how did this all come to pass? I attended the Seattle May Day for one major reason; Mayor Mike McGinn warned of violence, stating that he and the police had advanced …
But I repeat myself. This was found on my building at work. Too bad spraypaint doesn’t come with an eraser.

Evidently not content with simply alienating Jews, the Obama administration has moved against Catholics as well, stating flatly that there are no “constitutional rights issues” associated with their requirement that all health-care plans in the United States to cover sterilizations and all FDA-approved contraceptives, including those that induce abortions. That this fiat amounts to …
So-called Occuturds were littering downtown Portland again last night; ostensibly in support of Freedom in Egypt. You have to love their deep understanding of local, national, and international events. About four of them were arrested during their celebration of freedom in Egypt, and it’s clear that the country over there pays …
Dateline Portland Oregon, January 18, 2011 - Lock up the kids honey, Occupy Portland is on the move again. I have been doing Citizen Journalism for about a year and a half now. File this one under whatever the heck you want: I have officially seen it all. In a bizarre creepy …
Dateline January, 7 2012 Portland OR – Flash. KATU News is reporting that “The Elk,” an art icon which was situated within the illegal Occupy camp, was quite possibly damaged by the Occupiers! On November 12, 2011; fetid protestors were forcibly evicted from Chapman and Lownsdale Public Squares by the Portland Police Department. …
Dateline Portland Oregon – January 6, 2012: On a weekend marked by “Little Christmas” I had a recollection of one of the more positive moments from the stinking cesspool that was Occupy Portland. It was a video that I wanted to put up but never found the time. On October …
April 15, 2011 I took my two kids to our fourth Oregon Tea Party event. We love Tea Party events. They are family-friendly, fun, lots of creative signs, embracing freedom, and celebrating the founding principles our country was built on. That all changed on this day. We arrived. It was …
If you talk to some of the young idealists who have jumped on the “Occupy Wall Street” bandwagon, you may be tempted to think that they aren’t so different from the Tea Party, after all. I can sympathize with compassionate conservatives who want to reach out to these disillusioned kids and try and …
The day before Thanksgiving I was the target of a hit piece by Portland Mercury’s News Editor Denis C. Theriault that included half-truths, innuendo and outright lies. Nice timing Denis. When someone sent me the link I was about to leave for the Oregon coast to spend the holiday with …
During our law-abiding Tea Party rally last April, Leftist radicals came to harass and fling racist, homophobic and vulgar epithets at us and our children. One of them was a profane protester named Richard Hernandez, seen here flipping the bird at a videographer at the 2:06 mark (warning: foul language): View on YouTube …
Or is it “still”? Those nutballs are always getting their panties in a twist over one supposed “outrage” or another. They’ve gone on for so long that all they amount to these days is background chatter. Their latest excuse for soiling themselves comes from a little place in North Carolina, going by …
Leave it to TIME to make “The Protester” the “Person of the Year”, idolizing violent Occupiers and Islamic Radicals while minimizing peaceful Tea Partiers. Gotta love how they especially glorify the cowards who cover their faces so that they can’t be identified while starting fires, destroying property and attacking police. …
Hey, who knew there was a Wall Street in Harrisburg, Oregon? You know who is ruining the world for the little guy? Grass seed farmers! Let’s get ‘em!
