(Originally posted at http://danielalders.com/) In case you hadn’t heard following our country’s recent affirmation of Barack Obama’s presidency, there’s been a bit of infighting among the right-leaning politicos. In fact, it’s gotten rather ugly. Allow me to offer you a few choice headlines to refresh your memory: A More Diverse GOP Republicans descend into civil war Jindal: GOP Should ‘Stop Being The Stupid Party’ Republican Reckoning Begins After | Read More »
(Originally posted on my personal blog - http://nsagraduate.wordpress.com/) I’ve been relatively “mum” on the hot topic of secession over the last week for a variety of reasons. First, I knew it would blow over before long. The hotheaded types who latch on to the idea would eventually quiet down. Second, I was interested in seeing how the media would react. Third, there’s just not a lot | Read More »
(Originally posted on my personal blog - http://nsagraduate.wordpress.com/) Two brief thoughts: 1. I believe in American Exceptionalism. What made America “exceptional” in the past was her willingness to stand for the principles of liberty and free enterprise while acknowledging that it is the God of the Bible who gives us all good things. For these reasons we sing “God Bless America”, say “In God We Trust” | Read More »
(Originally posted on my personal blog - http://nsagraduate.wordpress.com.) I woke up this morning to find that last night’s results remained the same. Well actually, that’s not true – this morning it was worse.

You know who you are. You didn’t vote for Mitt Romney in the primary – he’s a moderate, was governor of a liberal state, isn’t consistently pro-life, etc. He’s not your guy. You’re a Conservative – down to your bones. You believe in free markets, liberty, as small a federal government as possible, less taxes, less government spending, less focus on foreign interests and more focus | Read More »

One of the common reactions to having Mitt Romney as the Republican nominee for President has been to complain about the uselessness of political pragmatism on the part of conservative Christians. Many are complaining that those who would vote for Romney over Obama are merely looking for “a chance to right the ship,” and suggest that the time for | Read More »
There’s been a bit of confusion as to the American Dream lately. And by lately, I mean “over the last several decades.” Through the years, both parties have drifted towards the idea of a democracy, and with that shift they have increasingly catered to the majority. After all, if you want a democracy to succeed, that’s how you do business: via majority. There’s a problem | Read More »
I’m done with all the hopey-changey talk coming from the left. Not that I was ever a fan, but the pick-me-ups and inspirational talks always make an American feel like he’s got the situation under control. Like there’s hope for tomorrow. Like he’ll soon see a brighter day. Oh wait, now I’m doing it, too… The empty rhetoric and promises of a brighter future need | Read More »
