Why Social Issues Matter

    Over and over, we conservatives are reminded by some of our so-called Republican party leaders that social, moral and religious issues do not matter. Indiana governor Mitch Daniels was the latest to express this sentiment.   We are told that such issues are divisive and that we should discuss only the core issues of Republicanism which are limited government, low taxes and individual liberty and | Read More »

    Sexualized Culture Threatens Us All

    The recent scandal about Democrat congressman Anthony Weiner shows us how a sexualized culture threatens us every day. Just imagine, before the scandal broke, that some person had got hold of Weiner’s web chats and threatened to expose him. He might suddenly be advocating legislation to help that person, i.e., he could be blackmailed. He may have been blackmailed. Who knows…   Last winter, an | Read More »

    The Incredible Shrinking President

    Barack Obama looks more and more like The Incredible Shrinking President.   Suddenly, just in the past few weeks, there has been a cascade of bad economic news that he cannot escape while at the same time it appears that more and more Republicans want to take a shot at him in 2012. Even mild-mannered Mitt Romney is talking trash. Good.   Sarah Palin is | Read More »

    2012 US Senate Races Look Great for GOP

    Every once in a while, an election cycle looms that looks particularly good for one party or the other. 2006 looked bright for the Democrats to re-take the House after 12 years out of the majority, and they did. 1980 was a year for Ronald Reagan and American conservatism to take the reins. And in 1994, the Republicans swept back into congressional power big-time, as | Read More »

    Ludicrous $40B for ‘Arab Spring’ Nations

        The Group of Eight industrialized nations (G-8) has pledged to provide up to $40 billion in development funding to “newly democratic nations” in North Africa and the Middle East, according to an article in the Wall Street Journal.   Woah…. What “newly democratic nations”? We have no idea where these nations are heading. Egypt is very likely to become dominated by radical Islamists | Read More »

    Al Gore Just Keeps Lying

    A group of psychiatrists is advocating that the anti-depression drug lithium be added to world water supplies to reduce depression and suicide.   In a related story, Al Gore addressed a graduating class of college students and said that the ‘climate crisis’ is the most significant calamity facing mankind.   So how are the two stories linked?   Answer: End-of-the-world environmentalism, propounded by people like | Read More »

    Conservative/Christian Alliance with Hispanics, Muslims

    Conservative and Christian Americans should start to build an alliance with moderate Muslims and hispanics. We all have many things in common.   The Democrat party is claiming hispanics and Muslims as their constituents. And we conservatives have been at times ceding these two groups to the left.   We should not. For instance the hispanic population in America today is the hardest-working group in | Read More »

    Palin Running? Wow…

    Who would have imagined it six months ago – Sarah Palin seems to be making gestures toward joining the 2012 Republican presidential field. She started a bus tour in Washington on Memorial Day weekend. The tour goes to… New Hampshire.   And the media will not miss a single opportunity to trash Palin at every turn. Because the Democrats are genuinely afraid of her. They | Read More »

    On Monday, Honor the Fallen

    Here is the text of a plaque located near the war memorial in my hometown in Massachusetts:   Roman Walter Sadlowski, US Navy, Born June 15, 1920, Died December 7, 1941 Who Gave His Life at Pearl Harbor in Defense of His Country. His Example Will Always Remain An Inspiration of Faithful Performance of Duty. Dedicated May 17, 1942   Who is Roman Walter Sadlowski? | Read More »

    Dems Finally Win an Election, but Hardly

    Since Barack Obama won only a modest victory for president in 2008 – and even then only with 100% media complicity and an utterly lackluster campaign by John McCain – the electoral record of the Democrat party has been abysmal.   In November 2009, Republicans won key governors’ races in Virginia and New Jersey. In January 2010, Republican Scott Brown won ‘Ted Kennedy’s Democrat’ US | Read More »

    About That ‘Reagan Debt’

    If you listened closely to president Obama’s April 13 budget speech, you may have heard him say this: “…as far back as the 1980s, America started amassing debt at more alarming levels, and our leaders began to realize that a larger challenge was on the horizon.”   Notice that he started talking about debt in “the 1980s”. That was to pin the old canard on | Read More »

    IMF Needs Real Reform

    With a sexual assault scandal surrounding him, Frenchman Dominique Strauss-Kahn has stepped down as chief of the International Monetary Fund. And now a woman may be preparing to step into the post. She is French finance minister Christine Lagarde. And one of her most noted public statements is one that she made in January when she publicly lectured a top international banker at the World | Read More »

    US Must Stand by Israel

     That the very existence of one tiny nation like Israel has caused the international left, Arabs and mad-dog Muslims to go into fits of rage for decades shows precisely how sad this world has become.   And now president Obama has joined the anti-Israel chorus, calling for a peace accord that takes Israel back to its pre-1967 borders which places large Jewish population centers in | Read More »

    End Govt. Funding for Awful ‘Art’

     A new Defense Department building just outside Washington, DC has become controversial after it was announced that a $600,000 sculpture – of a gurgling frog with a 10-foot-tall fairy girl on its back – would be installed at the building. The sculpture would be paid for with federal taxpayer dollars.   The decision to install the sculpture was rushed through after it was supposed to | Read More »

    More Bad News for New York State

    A recent Marist College poll said that a whopping 36% of people under 30 are planning to leave New York state, primarily because of its faltering economy.   Just think. New York! The wonderful home of New York City, the most awesome metropolis in the world! Broadway! Times Square!  Where young people flock for the opportunity to be part of the rarefied life there! “If | Read More »

    GOP Should Rally Around One Candidate Now

    The Republican party needs to take back the White House in 2012. The situation is dire. The nation cannot take another four years of Obama. The GOP should proceed like this:   The major presidential contenders and other party leaders should get together to decide on a candidate this coming August. Yes, August 2011. And allow all state party figures to get involved as well | Read More »

    Trump Quits, Newt Trips

    Nikitas3.com had predicted that Donald Trump would be the next president of the United States, but it will never be. Trump has bowed out of a possible 2012 White House run.   That truly is unfortunate. In radio interviews, Trump was the bold, opinionated businessman with real ideas for bringing the nation back from the economic abyss. He spoke forcefully about  the “monster” of China | Read More »

    Michelle the Barbarian

    First lady Michelle Obama touts her educational credentials from Princeton and Harvard. But her recent invitation for a black rapper to recite his “poetry” at the White House is yet another manifestation of how most of today’s liberals – including the most educated ones – are really unsophisticated people who despise high culture and substitute low culture and street culture in its stead.   This | Read More »

    30 Years Ago Today, the Papal Shooting

    Today, Friday, May 13, 2011, is the 30th anniversary of the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II on May 13, 1981 just six weeks after the attempt on the life of president Ronald Reagan on March 30, 1981.   Both men survived. It truly was the year that freedom itself lived.   The stories of these attempts appear unrelated but in a strange way | Read More »

    More Muslim Provocation at Airports

    Two Muslim imams (preachers) were asked to leave an airliner in Memphis recently because the pilot feared them. They were clothed in traditional garb – long dress-like garments.   “It’s racism and bias because of our religion and appearance and because of misinformation about our religion,” said Masudur Rahman one of the imams. “If they understood Islam, they wouldn’t do this.”   Yes, indeed, sir, | Read More »
