Are Bailed Out Companies Turning Into Spoiled Children
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 10th at 08:04 AM |
This morning there is an interesting story about the latest round of bail out begging from AIG. ABC News obtained a copy of a draft presentation for the Treasury Department about their need for more bail out money. The original story can be found here at the ABC News page. I have also downloaded a copy of the presentation to try to avoid the link | Read More »
Too Big Too Fail Is Too Big To Fix – A Solution To The Problem
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 9th at 09:15 AM |
Decades of bad decisions seem to be coming together in an incredible, perfect storm of trouble. Now we are bailing out large companies left and right because they are “Too big to fail.” If you or I have a small to medium business going under, tough luck. Looking at what is happening, throwing money at the problem is not fixing anything. We are just dragging | Read More »
President Obama Is Not Breaking Promises, Just Redefining Them
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 8th at 10:22 AM |
There is a lot of talk already about the Administration breaking promises. Since all of those on the left keep saying Conservatives are just being negative, I wanted to try to be upbeat. The President has not broken any of his promises, he is merely redefining what they mean. It is not his fault that we misunderstood. Here are some examples and their current translation. | Read More »
Giethner’s Staffing Dilemma Explained
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 7th at 08:42 AM |
If anybody knows Tim Giethner, feel free to send him a copy of this. In one of the flashes of Jeffersonian brilliance, I think I have it figured out why he is having a hard time staffing up Treasury. We all agree that the economy is in dire straits right now. Just stabilizing the problem, more or less turning it around, is going to | Read More »
Too Big to Fail – Why the Rush Ploy is Failing For Democrats
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 6th at 12:34 PM |
It appears from stories that the Democrat focus on Rush Limbaugh was a very carefully planned strategy. With no one person to demonize as they had George W. Bush, they needed somebody on the right to single out and attack. It looks like this strategy is just as bad of a move as TARP, the Stimulus, and everything else coming out of the White House. | Read More »
Politics of Personal Destruction Hitting New Level
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 6th at 06:35 AM |
I could have SWORN that Candidate Obama preached against the politics of personal destruction during the long and tedious campaign season. That is what has me so confused now. It appears that personal destruction is no longer limited to members of the political arena, as long as you are a convenient target. Despite attempts to say otherwise Rush Limbaugh is not a politician, elected | Read More »
Principles and Objectives for Conservative Leadership
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 5th at 09:15 AM |
By federalistblogs Sure all the media attention over the feud between President Obama and Rush is entertaining. It brings great ratings ( and page views ) too. However, for the long term success of the Conservative movement we need strong leaders who are following a clear set of Principle to live by and Objectives to be accomplished. I have already done two entries here | Read More »
Rush Pulls the “Leader” Card to Force Dems Hand
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 4th at 01:27 PM |
I was wondering when and if Rush Limbaugh would come up with a strategy to deal with the increasing push against him from the left. Today he did, and what a great approach he came up with! They call him the leader of the Republicans. They call him brash. They call him arrogant. Today his strategy takes all those accusations and wraps them up in | Read More »
Nobody Wants America to Fail – Just Bad Ideas About What to Do With America
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 4th at 09:11 AM |
I thought I would way in on the big topic of the week which is Rush Limbaugh’s comments about wanting the President to fail. That is what Rush said, but at the same time it isn’t. Technically what was said is more along the lines that he feels that what the President wants to do is a bad idea, and he wants him to fail | Read More »
An Idea For Saving Conservatism
By: federalistblogs (Diary) | March 3rd at 01:06 PM |
Recent scuffles between “Republicans” and “Conservatives” has put me to thinking. I have noticed a lot of non-elected Conservatives calling themselves Conservatives as opposed to Republicans. Obviously the Republican party is the primary home these days for Conservatives, but many feel they have slipped and may still be sliding. So if you want to save Conservatism but are not sure if the RNC is ready | Read More »
