In mid March, the RNC announced that it would hire a high-profile Silicon Valley CTO by May 1st: “The RNC will significantly restructure our digital strategy, moving to center the RNC around digital and data, and fully integrate within the entire organization,” RNC spokeswoman Kirsten Kukowski announced Tuesday. May 1st has come and gone, and it appears that this deadline was missed, but, there have | Read More »
The Obama and Democrat plan for America’s debt is that there should be no debt ceiling and that they should be able to spend as much of your money as they want. Republican talking points say that they would like to use the debt ceiling as a mechanism to force spending cuts, specifically $1 in cuts for every $1 in debt ceiling increase. The problem | Read More »
Hillary Clinton has done a horrible job running the State Department. The majority of her failings comport with her ideological leanings, but, they are also supported and encouraged by Obama. The “reset” with Russia is based on projecting US weakness. The lack of support for the Green Movement in Iran reflects a desire to avoid being seen as interfering with the internal workings of another | Read More »
I believe that Bobby Jindal should be and will be Mitt Romney’s choice for VP. Jindal brings the following positives: Two-Term Governor of Louisiana with a high approval rating. Has faced crises in Hurricane Gustav (extensive evacuations) and the BP Oil Spill, and was widely seen as handling them competently. Puts New Jersey in play (in 2004, John Kerry only won by 241K votes), because | Read More »
The current (as of yesterday) Welfare requirements specify that a recipient must be working, or must be enrolled in some alternative activity, like training or in a program to look for a job. If somebody is looking for a job, then they are counted among the unemployed, whereas if they are not looking for a job, they aren’t. Is it possible that the timing of | Read More »
The G-8 leaders have framed the discussion of reviving the world economy in terms of making the choice between austerity and growth. Most of the leaders are banking on their electorate choosing to support growth, but, what is cleverly hidden is the fact that what the leaders are really proposing is growth of government, not economic growth. This type of growth will result in an | Read More »
As sure as many of us would like to see the debt limit not increased, I believe this to be highly impractical, given the enormous size of the Federal Government. Obviously, the debt limit and the size of the Federal Government go hand-in-hand, but, by taking the approach of forcing the government to scramble to avoid a default, there will be many unintended consequences. On | Read More »
I was excited to be going to see Atlas Shrugged, Part 1. I had just read the book for the first time last year, and it became one of my top favorite books. I shrugged off the ultra-low rating at RottenTomatoes, expecting the film critics to just be reflecting their bias, and I went with my family and friends to see the movie. Unfortunately, I found | Read More »
President Obama believes that anyone in the world should be able to walk into America and take a job away from an American citizen. President Obama believes that American citizens should be responsible for paying for the education of the people who violate the country’s immigration laws. President Obama believes that his Wall Street friends are entitled to their big salaries because they work hard for their | Read More »
The most prominent attribute of a successful presidential candidate, in my opinion, is his or her desire to win. As we saw in the last election, very qualified and popular candidates in the primary fissled out quickly. I’m specifically thinking about Fred Thompson and Rudy Giuliani. I think that most conservatives would have been thrilled to get behind a Fred Thompson campaign, but it was | Read More »
