    one lesson of the Ohio kidnapping / hostage case

    the horrible story is no less horrible even though it has a happy ending of reunion and the family. But i see one thing in this, notice that the girls were made pregnant by the captors, and one gave birth and has a daughter now.

    proud to be a RINO

    I just realized that “Republican in Name Only” is actually something a conservative should embrace. Far better to be a RINO than a CINO. (Conservative in name only).   Now I have defended the need for conservatives like me to stay in the GOP because if we do not then we lose the only vehicle we have for promoting our value to the public in | Read More »

    I’ve been following a few people on twitter at CPAC and they haven’t really mentioned social issues yet. Is there anyone covering it for RedState or on Twitter I should follow?

A lot of young people like me buying insurance from medicare would be premium dollars that would help support the program without much expense since I don’t go to the doctor very often at all. Thats | Read More »

    Wisconsin works

    Great op-ed by Gov. Walker on the economic outlook for Wisconsin, compared to nationally: After years of tax increases and budget tricks, Wisconsin faced one of the largest budget deficits in the country — $3.6 billion. Our state government was hemorrhaging money due to fiscally liberal policies which catered to special interest groups and government union bosses.

    calling all gamers on Redstate

    I am quite disturbed to see so much anger and misunderstanding directed at video games in several comment thread. I had hoped that other gamers might join me in vouching for the value and innocence of our hobby. I enjoy video games as much as I enjoy my real gun ownership and I find that these are perhaps the most honorable and beautiful examples of | Read More »
