I call this Day 17 because the Fiscal Cliff Deal was signed on January 1st and we still have seen no coherent vision, goals, or plan from our GOP leadership. I will give them a small pass since they are having their Retreat but I expect something next week. Here is a Press Release from Republican leadership I would like to see. It may not | Read More »
We are all angry about this week’s events and the performance of our Republican leadership. They did nothing to further conservatism or enhance the Republican Party’s image with the general public which is important for maintaining control of the House in 2014. However I do have a cause which I think can help America and conservatism.Let me start with a story. While in college the | Read More »
The first hopeful thing is that hard core conservatives are now broadening their thinking. In my terminology we conservatives may be getting smarter because we are now thinking. Many now understand that a simple pledge of “no new taxes” is not a strategic plan for smaller good government. Before the “fiscal cliff” crisis many conservatives were more concerned with caving to the liberal’s demands than | Read More »

That’s an audacious thing for someone like me | Read More »

We don’t have a federal “government of the people, by the people, for the people”. For decades we | Read More »
The Titanic hit an iceberg; The USA hit the economic crisis. The Titanic’s Capitain decided to proceed as if everything was OK at the urging of the ship owner; Obama has deciced to proceed as if we have money at the urging of his party. The Titanic sank with few surviors. I see no other possibility for the USA but to sink also if Obama | Read More »
I am tired of being a dumb conservative. I call myself dumb because I could be smart when it comes to conservatism but I haven’t been in the past. Neither has our leadership. Recently I decided to get smarter and to pinpoint 3 main issues with the current state of conservatism and then offer solutions. In my opinion if we improve in the following 3 | Read More »
