Ryan… The Real Deal.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | August 21st at 08:40 AM |
Paul Ryan scares the living daylights out of the DeMarxists. With good reason. He was the perfect choice for Mitt Romney, whom many conservatives considered to be too vanilla, too privileged, too rich and out of touch with ‘the common man’. More importantly, he was viewed as another inside-the-beltway Republican selection. Conservatives, deeply mistrustful of what we have come to recognize as the Republicrat establishment | Read More »
“Absurd”… “Internally Contradictory”.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | July 1st at 10:12 AM |
It’s a tax… it’s a penalty… no, wait…it’s a tax. Chief Justice John Roberts turned the Constitution and the Supreme Court on its head with a not-quite-coherent opinion in which he managed a tortured interpretation of the Obamacare Act, which was clearly intended to save the most detested piece of legislation since prohibition. The temptation to jump on my keyboard as soon as I heard | Read More »
Ricochet Romance.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | September 30th at 02:20 PM |
In again, out again… the will-o’-the wisp of American politics is/is not harboring heretofore unthinkable aspirations for the presidency. Chris Christie is the elixir du jour of the northeast Rockefeller Republicans. Why are these money rich establishment Republicans so anxious to lure Christie into running? Answer that question for yourselves and you’ll know everything you need to know about Governor Christie. Christie is not a | Read More »
Tempered In Adversity.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | June 12th at 04:54 AM |
It’s something deeply embedded in the American psyche. There’s an innate stubbornness Americans have in the face of adversity. These last three years have forged a new breed of American… much tougher and much, much more skeptical. America has watched as its own sworn leadership has turned upon us, leaving economic chaos and destruction in its wake. Policy after policy, specifically designed to kill jobs | Read More »
Oh Say, Can You See?

Some of the emotion that must have consumed Francis Scott Key, the night that he penned what was to become the sacred anthem of our country, has rubbed off on me. I can imagine what it must have looked like. Anybody who has ever been in the infantry knows about night time illumination and pyrotechnics. I’ve always thought it would make quite a show if | Read More »
Watching Us, Watching Them.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | December 13th at 12:43 PM |
It’s a shame that we have to spend at least as much time watching ‘our side’ as we do the DeMarxists and the White House cabal. Yes, it is a shame, but if we think that a little thing like a historic power shift changes anything for some of these folks, we’d better guess again. Unfortunately, as we’ve shown, vacuuming up pork is not a | Read More »
Delusion.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | November 18th at 06:26 AM |
It must go down in history as one of the most delusional celebrations in history, ranking up there with the White Star Line directors hailing the maiden voyage of RMS Titanic as a success, or Napoleon claiming that Waterloo was his finest hour. How Nancy Pelosi could celebrate the achievements of the 111th Congress, while keeping a straight face, is a total mystery to me. | Read More »
