Moe has it right here. I agree with him. for all the reasons there are. Historical, economic, individualist. Whatever. There is nothing, in my opinion, that communism has to show for itself, except pain and grief. And dedicated fans in the prosperous West, who don’t or won’t recognize that they can’t have what they have now if they get the regime they want. Moe and | Read More »
Got the embed figured out, thanks izoneguy. Chris Christie for President! I’m not kidding. Did you see the look on the people’s faces? Even those who you KNOW would normally disagree? This guy has an ability to connect at a visceral level, and speak truths that no one can deny, no matter their political persuasion. I don’t care if he’s fat. He gets the job | Read More »
No kidding, they’re wringing their hands about tea partyers signing up to be committeemen. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/15/us/politics/15party.html?ref=politics&pagewanted=all Even if they didn’t reference your work here (or did they?) to encourage fellow Redstaters to get directly involved, we know you are an important part of this endeavor. Bravo Zulu, Martin. You’re making a difference. The opposition (in and out of the party) is nervous. And we are poised | Read More »
We have a Fifth Amendment, and it comes in quite handy. Tiger Woods, as we all, has the “right not to incriminate himself” and NOT talk to the police. He followed that simple directive and received this: Tiger Woods will be cited for careless driving in a car crash outside his Orlando-area mansion, but will not face criminal charges, the Florida Highway Patrol said Tuesday. | Read More »
Toby Harden, in his “give her a talk show” article hits what I think is an essential truth and problem about a possible Palin candidacy: This is not snooty elitism – it’s based on the perception that Mrs Palin’s track record is thin and that while she has real star quality her political prescriptions are vague. Sound familiar? That may have worked for Barack Obama | Read More »
And here is why I like Mark Steyn, even if he is a Canuck. Half a decade or so back, I wrote: “It’s a good basic axiom that if you take a quart of ice-cream and a quart of dog feces and mix ’em together the result will taste more like the latter than the former. That’s the problem with the U.N.” I think he’s | Read More »
It’s about numbers – not only bringing money in, but people into the organization’s orbit. “Organize the unorganized” as it says at the end of their Core Principles. They can use these names and numbers to grow their base. I’m sure they are paid by their sponsoring groups and various government agencies based upon how many contracts they write. No contracts, no money. Based upon | Read More »
Big, heavy brass ones. Those annoying parts of male anatomy you see dangling off of the back of pickup trucks? They cast the mold from this guy’s stuff. Here’s what I have noticed from your coverage: You brought in the damage control crowd to FRAME the story. Before even airing our damning Baltimore video. You know your audience would turn on ACORN if you showed | Read More »
15 minutes? What the? Does he think the rest of us work on HIS schedule? We have a saying in the Navy, “If you’re on time, you’re late.” We also know there are events that conspire to stymie the best plans of mice and men. We accommodate with the “five minute rule” – We’ll wait five minutes, out of respect and understanding. After that, it’s | Read More »
This is probably a little bit stale as the news cycle goes – but it’s still IMPORTANT, and worth effort forward. All you Republican party professionals whining about how she’s messing up and ruining the Republican brand. I’m talking to you. MAN UP! Your party needs you. yes, YOU. You’re professional party, right? You know what’s needed to keep Palin from “embarrassing” herself and the | Read More »
Jaw dropping, but true NEW YORK – Jon Stewart hammered Jim Cramer and his network, CNBC, in their anticipated face-off on “The Daily Show.”In an interview taped Thursday afternoon that went far beyond its allotted time, Stewart repeatedly chastised the “Mad Money” host and CNBC for putting entertainment above journalism. He also accused the financial news network of wilfully ignoring corporate dishonesty. The mind boggles, | Read More »
I want common-sense conservatism. I want a Republican who understands that cutting federal spending and not raising taxes is key – like McCain. Earmarks as they are should be a thing of the past – if a Senator or Representative wants a project for his state or district, then it should be its own legislation, let it succeed or fail on its merits. I want | Read More »
Barack Obama has been elected as the next President of the United States. I wish him well, his road will not be easy. It is now our job to help him execute his duties for the betterment of the American People. Personally, I oppose many of his established positions, and I am suspect of what is to come. However, he will be my President and | Read More »

The title says it all. He’s a US Senator. He spoke glowingly of her in one of his books. She was at one of his “taking office” ceremonies. But he didn’t lift a finger to help her despite being in an ideal place to do so, and now she’s on a deportation order. He’s a member of the same government that wants to kick her | Read More »
He didn’t have to say that. But he did. Chief Petty Officers are the career enlisted professionals of the Navy since 1893. Their job is to get the job done, train their Sailors, and grow the junior officer assigned to them. Generally, they don’t have a college degree, but they have learned through experience how to deal with the people in their charge, and those | Read More »
Here’s my response to “Jeff” at the Pajamas Media post “Obama, Palin, and the Meaning of ‘Change’” My response below doesn’t seem to post, so I’ll put it here, it was too much work to lose I’m going to take this one head-on. Jeff, take a look in places other than left-wing blogs or even the MSM. (Jeff the commenter is in bold) What most | Read More »
“Jesus was a community organizer, Pontius Pilate was a Governor” That’s the latest from the Left and their attempt to reduce the election to slogans. Susan Sarandon used it just yesterday. If she were as learned as she purports to be, she wouldn’t have said this. It sounds good on it’s face, and makes a great bumper-sticker slogan, and sounds true to those who are | Read More »
“Jesus was a community organizer, Pontius Pilate was a Governor” It sounds good on it’s face, and makes a great bumper-sticker slogan, and sounds true to those who are only passingly familiar anymore with Catholic and Christian doctrine. Jesus was NOT a community organizer, he was the leader of a movement. The largest and most far-reaching of movements the world has ever seen. It has | Read More »
