The mainstream media disconnect has created a vacuum where real Americans are left thirsting for straightforward and honest commentary about the real America they see every day.
To be off the grid is to be disconnected from most of America's infrastructure without having to cross any border.
Perhaps, after all, America never has been discovered. I myself would say that it had merely been detected.
The American people elected us here to cut spending so we can create an environment for jobs in America. The House has acted. We have demonstrated that we want to see spending, discretionary spending, brought down to levels of 2008. We've seen no counteraction. We have seen no position that has been expressed by the other side at all.
In colleges throughout America, students are taught to have disdain for the white race. I know this sounds incredible, or at least exaggerated. It is neither.
Where Reagan channeled disenchantment with overweening government, Obama symbolized America's transformation into a multiracial country.

What Republicans have done in my view is that they are systematically dismantling a sense of community in America.
The voters are going to decide in November who is going to fix their personal family dismay over not having jobs in America. They are going to pick Mitt Romney.
Across the Atlantic, in the scattered, far-flung, rural settlements of colonial America, hospitality had become a central concern, and hostesses, like peacocks displaying their iridescent plumage, tried to outdo one another with their creative food displays.
In America, the problems of poverty and low income, particularly for minorities, are disproportionately focused in the inner cities. Shining a spotlight on the businesses growing in these communities is proof that any community has the potential for entrepreneurship.
For an Italian peasant a telegram from anywhere is a wondrous thing; and a cable from the terrestrial paradise of America is not lightly to be disregarded.
Discussion in America means dissent.
We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it.
America is the spirit of human exploration distilled.
