If you were unfortunate enough to live through the 1960s, you experienced firsthand the ‘hippies’. And for those too young, it was an unbearable era with the ultimate narcissists of all time – gullible, pleasure-seeking, greedy, stupid, materialistic and shallow people – controlling much of the public discourse. It was an awful time for anyone with half a brain and half a heart. Take | Read More »
There are two very telling statistics for the coming November 2 elections: *In Delaware the “unelectable” Tea Party US Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell trails Democrat Chris Coons by only 53-42, according to Rasmussen. After the media trashing of O’Donnell – who is the new Sarah Palin as far as media ire is concerned – and the media insistence that Delaware is all Democrat | Read More »
(This is the second of a three-part series about a 2010 campaign in Massachusetts.) I have been working with Mike Case, who is running for state representative as a Republican in the Massachusetts 2nd district. He is a veteran of Vietnam, Bosnia and Iraq and is a retired police officer. He has a masters degree in public administration and worked on Capitol Hill in | Read More »
Lisa Murkowski, the Republican US senator from Alaska who lost her primary race to Tea Party pick and Palin favorite Joe Miller, is causing much concern in her party. Murkowski now is running a write-in candidacy for the November 2 general election. And she is like another Republican, Florida governor Charlie Crist who lost his primary bid for the US Senate to conservative Marco | Read More »
The media are alarmed at the most recent report on poverty, and should be. The Washington Post reports that one in seven Americans now is poor, saying, ‘Last year was the third consecutive year that the poverty rate climbed, in part because of the recession, rising from 13.2 percent in 2008 to 14.3 percent, or 43.6 million people, last year. ‘…”These numbers should be | Read More »
Today, Friday September 17 is Constitution Day. Two hundred twenty-three years ago, on September 17, 1787, the US Constitution was signed by attendees at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia and sent to the states. On June 21, 1788, its ratification was complete and our Constitution became the guiding document for the freest nation ever in history. It is telling that suddenly in 2010 there | Read More »
(The editorial below was written after it was erroneously reported that the National Republican Senatorial Committee stated that it would not support conservative Delaware US Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell for the November election. The editorial shall remain unedited here as a warning to the Republican party about its questionable treatment of some conservatives.) America needs a new political party, the Liberty Party. It will | Read More »
With the victory in Delaware of Sarah Palin-backed conservative Christine O’Donnell over Establishment Republican Mike Castle in the state’s US Senate primary, we have yet another example of a growing split in the GOP. In New York state, Tea Party favorite Carl Paladino posted a huge upset over Establishment Republican Rick Lazio in the governor’s race and plans to run on a platform of | Read More »
Feisal Abdul Rauf, the imam behind the Ground Zero mosque, was interviewed by Soledad O’Brien September 8 on CNN. Here are excerpts from the interview with my comment after each: O’BRIEN: You’re just back from the Middle East. You’ve been gone for about two months. And you’ve been pretty quiet about the controversy that has been raging about the proposed structure right near Ground | Read More »
Here are excerpts from president Obama’s September 10 press conference with my comment after each: Obama’s opening statement: As I said in Cleveland on Wednesday, I ran for President because I believed the policies of the previous decade had left our economy weaker and our middle class struggling. Comment: Well, nothing has changed – he’s blaming Bush right at the start in the first | Read More »
The plan by a Christian pastor in Florida to burn hundreds of Muslim holy books apparently has been called off, although others are talking about taking up the charge. The plan was causing a worldwide backlash by radical Islamists. Protests already have taken place overseas. General David Petraeus even warned that the burning is going to cause an upsurge in attacks on US troops in | Read More »
“We do not differentiate between those dressed in military uniforms and civilians,” Osama bin Laden once said. This chilling statement reminds us that the War on Terror is a different type of war that requires a different strategy. It is more of an intelligence-based war than anything else and indeed is based in “terror”, and is a cowardly way of operating. But it | Read More »
President Obama is making a last-ditch effort to save the Democrat party in the November election. He is proposing $50 billion more in government spending in order to stimulate the economy and create jobs. Yes, more spending like the $787 billion ‘stimulus’ which did not work as we capitalists knew it would not. And if he thinks this new plan somehow will create a | Read More »
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is tagging the Tea Party movement as racist. This was to be expected. NAACP, along with the entire Democrat power structure, knows that the Tea Party is a potent political force and must be stopped with insult, defamation, slander and lies. The main reason that the Tea Parties are so threatening to liberals is that | Read More »
It’s election season again, and things are looking bright for conservatives and Republicans. You can always tell when Democrats are getting desperate. As David Limbaugh’s conservative book Crimes Against Liberty: An Indictment of President Barack Obama went to #1 on the New York Times best-seller list and Fox News continues to trounce MSNBC and CNN in ratings, lefty Follywood actor John Cusack went on | Read More »
If you are distressed about the drift of America and want to get away, take a drive and go to a real country fair. It will give you a day of joy. No, not an amusement park or a flea market or a town fair but a genuine country fair, the kind that are popular in rural areas at this time of year as | Read More »
Since the November 2008 election, a chasm has been widening in America – that between We the People and the ruling leftist elites in politics, the universities and the Ancient Media. This would be expected. Because with Obama in the White House, the differences between the power elite and the public has been set in high relief. With Bush in the presidency, that difference | Read More »
The most expensive public high school in American history recently opened in Los Angeles. It cost $578 million. This represents more infrastructure insanity. Because by investing huge amounts of money in extravagant projects such as this, we are adding to the money that is being wrongly spent while increasing the public debt. Because when large amounts of money go to such spending, it is | Read More »
For decades now, we have heard from the media and the university elite that liberals are oh-so smart and that conservatives are just dumb rednecks looking for their next 6-pack and stock-car race. If only it were so. In fact conservatives are much smarter than liberals. Here’s why: Liberals today live in a media/university environment in which truth is no longer germane. They | Read More »
Glenn Beck is a curious character. He is a Mormon from Washington state, a former alcoholic, and a very thorough and sensible conservative TV and radio commentator who has emerged only in the last few years. Yet he held a massive ‘Restoring Honor’ rally at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC on Saturday, August 28 that looked like one called by a long-entrenched and long-revered | Read More »
