There’s a general theme running through the Republican ranks that we will vote for whomever the nominee is because it will be better than Obama. How many of you have waffled between one candidate and another over the last months as the playing field slowly thins? Are we victims of political elite maneuvering to maintain status quo by supporting a candidate that both parties are | Read More »
Is it just me or does anyone else around here believe that sending U.S. troops to Africa is insane? While debate about the move hasn’t hit mainstream, it struck me that there should be an outcry against this decision so loud as to silence the protests on Wall Street and bring the Super Committee out of it’s back-room trading. I was one of the military | Read More »
It’s unfortunate that Perry wasn’t credible about his opinions on Global Warming.. ah.. excuse me Climate Change… It’s such an important issue directly connected with the discussion on jobs and economic prosperity that a candidate who is going make a statement that they believe man made global warming is not a scientific fact, needs to bring out the guns and state why he believes such | Read More »
I rather like the Hobbits. They were creatures processed with an important quality unlike any other. The strength to overcome a powerful evil for the good of all others. It is not an insult to be compared to Hobbits. And, shows the ignorance, arrogance and condescension of anyone using such an analogy. Just a note for those feeling defensive…
Who wins if the will of the American people is ignored? Bankers? Wall Street? Unions? Special Interests? No one wins! This is a significant time in history. A time easily compared to the days of King George when the aristocracy snubbed a small group of people in a land far away. We are fully aware that there are sacrifices to be made in the coming | Read More »
After reading an AP article by Chris Tomlinson that Rick Perry continues to imply he is going to join the race. The article itself excited feelings of hope in me as it outlined Perry’s apparent core values. In the last month or so, I’ve been holding out contributing to any candidate’s campaign though strongly tempted to help MB. If Perry enters the race, he will | Read More »
I realize it’s just too reliable a source of unfiltered conservative thought to disregard all together and thus, I’ve decided not to participate in any exchanges or provide my response to others comments or diaries. Since I have “no point”, there is none in continued engagement. I’m not going away mad, just disgusted… The recent exchanges between myself and long time contributors here isn’t worth | Read More »
The first diary I see when I logged on this morning was about extreme couponing (apparently banned as spam). And I thought to myself “what a coincidence”. I had dinner with family friends last night who had recently started extreme couponing. They proudly displayed their stuffed pantry purchased for $4.18. I was shocked to find that it was a growing trend and took notes. If | Read More »
Recently I read an article by Victor Hanson Davis (a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution) on the National Review On-line Website entitled “The World Turned Upside Down, Again”. A well written and relevant piece correlating today’s international affairs to history. I highly recommend its reading to anyone interested in a capsulated history lesson communicated with wit and humor. The article holds particular relevance to | Read More »
I was asked to post this rant which was a response to Hunter’s post concerning not having sufficient clout to be aggresive in the telegraphing to our leaders that they are being watched. The Diary of that discussion is “Republican Austarity” for those interested. I don’t have the time to go back and clean it up so I apologize if you don’t get the reason | Read More »
While this may not have a specific relevancy to current and important political events, I believe it’s relevant simply because it is symptomatic of a broader physiological vacuum that exist in the minds of our society as a whole and manifest in a very tangible way recently for me. Because of my activities with the Tea Party and other conservative activist groups, my tendency to | Read More »
Brady Dennis wrote a piece in the Washington Post yesterday that I forced myself to read. I felt like I was back in grade school being reeducated on how to run my business. In watching the video clips the Post selected to accompany the article I was provided a road map of basic rules to follow with my instructions to meet my responsibilities to America. | Read More »
Before I posted this I had to ask myself if this was a petty subject. You can decide. When Christina Aguilera sang the national anthem on national television yesterday she flubbed the lyrics to the national anthem. It struck me that she had the unfortunate distinction of representing why this country continues it’s increasing economic and social decline. These are highly paid professionals and the Superbowl is a high | Read More »
The Democrats political move to imply newly empowered Republicans actions on the first day of the 112th Congress were all bluster with little substance telegraphs their lack of understanding about the grassroots movement that swept them out of power. It will continue to dilute the socialist agenda as more Americans educate themselves on the substance that has embroiled this country in an idealogical war of attrition with socialism | Read More »
Strong work ethic and fundamental economic practices were no match for the kind of economic decline I was experiencing. The realization that mismanagement and poor decisions as a private business owner were not solely to blame for my declining economic standing, (I have questioned every decision made in the last 30 years to come to that opinion). I found myself working 75% harder for 75% | Read More »
