• Gingrich Backs Health Care Mandate
  Well, no sooner does Newt jump into the race than he basically shoots himself in the foot. Pushed into a corner by David Gregory on Sunday’s Meet the Press, Gingrich said that he supports a sliding scale system that requires everyone to participate and contribute to the health care system. This is not in contradiction [...]
  
  
• LEAD, Barry… By Example…
  It is becoming increasingly difficult, frustrating, and disappointing to watch Barack Obama blunder his way like Mr. Magoo through the perils that this nation is facing during his presidency. It is my hope that the declines in his favorable/unfavorable ratings amongst the electorate are indicators that perhaps others are seeing his ineptness and becoming increasingly [...]
  
  
• “Bold Move” or “No Other Choice”?
  My initial reaction upon hearing that Osama bin Laden had been killed was one of shock coupled with a pleasant relief that we finally got the bastard. The ensuing days were flooded with fanfare from media, much of it lauding Obama for his bold, risky, “take command” approach to the situation. Initially I tended to [...]
  
  
• Barry Still Can’t See The Fault Belongs To His Lack Of Leadership
  Well, Barry came out after his emergency meeting with Reid and Boehner, and what he said really actually told me a lot about this not ready for prime time community organizer. Let’s take a look at what he said about the meeting, and his perspectives on the situation. Oh, yes, accompanied by commentary from me [...]
  
  
• Budget Battle Blues
  Let’s look at some ideas on the current budget battle. 1. You can’t say, whether you are the President, or Harry Reid, or Nancy Pelosi, or anyone else, that you have met the Republicans halfway. Why? Because if the GOP goal of $100 Billion is to be believed, then you can’t as a liberal dipstick [...]
  
  
• Reaction To Qur’an Burning Should Tell Us Much
  The reaction to the burning of the Qur’an by Rev. Terry Jones of Dove Outreach Center in Gainesville, Florida should be very revealing to those apologists who constantly try to deny that there is a radical element in the muslim world that is a “problem”. And that radical element is not small enough to poo-poo [...]
  
  
• Dem’s Setting Up Republicans- But Not How the Media is Telling You
  Regarding the current budget discussions on Capitol Hill, many in the media are trying to tell you that the left is trying to set up the republicans by showing that the tea party element that was elected last November is going to be the reason that the government will shut down, if indeed it does. [...]
  
  
• Kinetic Military Action
  Wow. Word parsing at a totally new level. Over the last few decades, our nation (and indeed the world) has seen an effort to soften the blows of words and titles, names, etc., in order to try to make things seem not as they are, or, to at least try to make some terms or [...]
  
  
• Obama Abandons His Responsibility
  With two judges ruling against Obamacare and two judges ruling for, and the lawsuit of 26 states suing to have the law overturned awaiting its journey up the judicial ladder of the courts, it is apparent that what hangs in the balance is the economic health of the state’s economies, as well as our national [...]
  
  
• Goodbye, Geraldine
  Wow. A little depressing to get the news today that Geraldine Ferraro passed at the age of 75 due to complications (pneumonia) developing from blood cancer. Obviously, I am a conservative, but I think a lot of us are really going to miss her. Unlike so many of the partisan hack punks we have today [...]
