Thoughts of Mitt, the Romneyphobes and the Clinton Assault Weapons Ban
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | July 15th at 03:44 AM |
All of the drama over Mitt as the imperfect candidate has taken me back to the early days of the Bush presidency. When he was silent on the AWB, except to have said if it reached his desk he would sign it. People threw a fit. They wanted him to come out swinging on the issue and that he would go so far as to | Read More »
What is with these people???
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | November 29th at 07:22 PM |
Seriously, is it just me or is everyone else appalled at the complete lack of quality of what gets foisted upon us for national office? These people can’t debate. They can’t offer reasonable plans. They can’t take a stand and stick to it. They can’t keep their pants on. They can’t avoid putting their feet in their mouths up to the knee. Granted, one or | Read More »
This is What ( Not A Republic) Democracy Looks Like….
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | October 13th at 12:59 AM |
October 11, 2011 | Author Retro | The Occupy protests are being equated by the always-biased liberal media as analogous to the Tea Party protests. This argument is being used to obfuscate their extreme negative features with the old tried and true “he did it too” routine. Every parent and schoolteacher in the world is familiar with this juvenile tactic and to pull it out | Read More »
I don’t like Ron Paul, but…
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | September 27th at 02:22 AM |
I don’t like Ron Paul, but I do like his message. Dr Paul may or may not be a nice enough guy. No question he’s been a consistent supporter of our Constitution for his entire political career. I don’t dislike him on a personal level because I don’t know the man. But as a presidential candidate he’s lacking. He’s weak in debates and he’s weak | Read More »
Nominate a conservative, dammit!
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | September 25th at 02:12 AM |
Nominate a conservative, dammit! The time has passed for appeasement. The time has passed to “just get elected”. The time has passed to worry more about putting an (R) in front of the name than putting Respect for the Constitution in front of all else. This is not the time for “Anybody but Obama”. This is the time to be ideologically rigid. It is the | Read More »

Community Organizing, Texas Style
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | September 14th at 07:09 PM |
Author Retro Some “community organizing” seems to consist of paid organizers coming into a community, “never wasting a crisis” by trying to create pressure groups to gouge resources out of businesses, pushing for union demands, and demanding government create more and bigger and more generous largesse to redistribute wealth from the private sector to an ever-increasing entitlement class. Class warfare slogans abound, angry rhetoric, and | Read More »
An Open Letter to Mr Biden, by Retro
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | August 3rd at 12:24 AM |
Dear Mr. Vice-President: I am a 68-year old grandmother and small business owner who identifies strongly with the values of the tea party. I am in favor of smaller government, lower taxes and the federal government getting its debt under control and spending no more than it takes in. I have spent my life working hard for the money you and the rest of the | Read More »
The Milkshake Baseline, by Randall Mead
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | July 30th at 03:47 PM |
I love chocolate milkshakes. Like spending is to the national government, chocolate milkshakes are to me: my reason for being. The thicker the better, throw in some malt or fudge and I’m in heaven. I consumed them wherever and whenever possible. And since a good thing can only be made better by having more and more of it, my selfish pleasure demanded I consume more | Read More »
The Weakling Standard by Randall Mead
By: Scott Conklin (Diary) | July 28th at 02:35 AM |
The Weakling Standard Having backed the President of the United States into a corner, resulting in his near-hysterical rant on national television and having changed the entire tone of the current national debate from tax increases to spending cuts, the leadership of the House of Representatives now seems bent upon snatching humiliating defeat from the jaws of victory. Sadly, this is business as usual for | Read More »
