America Does A Big Gutcheck
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | October 1st at 12:20 PM |
… and didn’t like what it found. Conservative writers, myself included, are enamored with the emerging Conservative majority in the country. We observe closely, in awe of seeing a free people exercising their fundamental right to remove from office those they have strongly come to oppose. We are truly witnessing a shift in the fabric of American politics. Rick Santelli Rick Santelli of CNBC financial | Read More »
‘Tis The Season.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 30th at 09:38 AM |
Jim DeMint rightly sounded off, calling out Congressional Democrats for leaving Washington without addressing the Bush tax cut extensions, despite the fact that more than thirty Democrats also voted to remain and take up the issue. Jim DeMint It should be noted that at least some of these good folks are probably in real hot water in their districts and are desperate to be seen | Read More »
The Insipid Mr Obama.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 29th at 01:28 PM |
What has happened to Barack Hussein Obama will go down as the most spectacular rise and fall in US political history. Barack Obama hasn’t a clue what goes on in the minds and hearts of Americans. I saw a clip of Ann Coulter, where she states that Obama is not a Muslim… he’s an atheist. Ann, I’m not so sure. I don’t believe he’s a | Read More »
The Incredible Vanishing Congress.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 28th at 02:26 PM |
Congress might have been able to clear Washington faster in the face of something like the bubonic plague, but not by much. Washington is political poison for Democrats. They chose to leave town without addressing the extension of the Bush tax cuts. Not that their reception will be that much better out in their districts. People, many people who have never before participated in the | Read More »
The Clown College Meets Scaramouche.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 27th at 12:44 PM |
It came off like the Keystone Kops meet the Three Stooges. It was supposed to be funny… I think? It wasn’t. It was ugly, demeaning, and a very poor attempt to draw attention to issues… having a white comedian championing illegal (my word) alien field workers, and illegals in this country generally.

A Remarkable Story.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 26th at 06:02 AM |
From a journalistic standpoint, the meteoric rise and even more startling fall of the giant Democratic socio-Marxist monster combined with the massive uprising of the American people, is being on the front row giving witness to truly historic events. From a political standpoint, it’s the continual efforts in favor of the goal of winning our country back. The greater the estimates I hear regarding the | Read More »
Grasping At Fictional Straws.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 25th at 04:59 PM |
Why should anything be different during election time than during the normal day-to-day machinations of government? Well, my reply to that question would be that the re-election hopefuls would try to show themselves in the best possible light. Polish the halo a little, carefully apply some make-up to cover the unsightly blemishes and, although perhaps difficult and not true to character, at least appear genuine | Read More »
Jim DeMint in 2012?
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 24th at 01:16 PM |
As far as I’m concerned, 2012 is much too far away for prognostication, for all the noise about Sarah Palin’s visit to Iowa. Jim certainly hasn’t outwardly indicated that he intends a run, by word or deed. Still, it’s a fascinating scenario to imagine. Jim DeMint is a solid Conservative guy with down-to-earth values, and a willingness to stand tall despite the odds. He has | Read More »
Hoo-Rah, General James Amos USMC, Semper Fidelis, Sir!
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 23rd at 03:09 PM |
General James Amos, USMC, has given the spirits of his men a great boost by sounding off on the ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ issue. Amos is next in line to be chosen as Commandant of the Marine Corps, on the upcoming retirement of now Commandant General James Conway. General James Amos. General Amos is a Marine aviator, a jet pilot by trade… not a hard-nosed | Read More »
Power To The People.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 22nd at 02:07 PM |
It seems that I heard this so much during the 60s that it became like white noise… the rise of the counter-revolutionary left, backed and controlled by well-funded, disciplined communist party members. This was not so much the American people seeking power, as it was a variegated group of disparate splinter leftists and anarchists, orchestrated by people whose goal is the destruction of the United | Read More »
