So you believe in AGW?
By: wennejunk (Diary) | July 31st at 03:12 PM |
So you believe in Anthropogenic Global Warming? The theory that man’s activities are the primary and dominant driver for any increase in global temperature and that this increase is a bad thing? Is that correct? OK. You also believe that if only we – as a human population – would greatly reduce the production and release of so-called greenhouse gases, we could then stop and | Read More »
Seeing the candidate we want in the candidate we choose
By: wennejunk (Diary) | July 23rd at 08:56 AM |
On Jeff Ward’s radio show yesterday in Austin (KLBJ), a caller commented on the differences between Rick Perry, Ron Paul and Herman Cain and also why the former has a shot at the nomination and Presidency, but the latter two do not. In essence, he said that Paul and Cain both spoke directly and clearly on where they stood and how they believed, whereas Perry | Read More »
Pawlenty Now Officially Running for VP
By: wennejunk (Diary) | July 11th at 02:43 PM |
(or “Tim Pawlenty doubles-down on wimpy”) That’s my take on his attack on Michelle Bachmann: I actually agree with much of his criticism in terms of her experience and I value his executive experience. However, instead of attacking #2 Bachmann, he should be aggressively attacking #1 Romney and our current disaster-in-training: Obama. This nation needs a rock-solid, no-apologies, take-no-prisoners, Conservative leader as POTUS. If Pawlenty | Read More »
Rangel on Debt: “What would Jesus do?”
By: wennejunk (Diary) | July 9th at 10:14 AM |
(via Drudge) http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/07/08/religion-rangel-and-debt-ceiling “Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., called out for his fellow lawmakers and all Americans to do “the Lord’s work” as a solution to fixing the debt ceiling.” <snip> “These are not political questions,” Rangel asserted. “These are moral questions.” <snip> Rangel continues to ask, “what would Jesus do?” *** Really? Like most Liberals who claim the a la carte religious mantel, he focuses | Read More »
Al Gore-Please run again. It’s your turn.
By: wennejunk (Diary) | June 22nd at 03:07 PM |
Al Gore has opened the door for lefty criticism of President Obama on his environmental stewardship, specifically regarding Climate Change/Global Warming: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0611/57537.html As Politico says “his open attack on Obama from the man who was once the next president of the United States makes it safe for others to follow.” [italics added- they just can't let go can they?] This can only hurt Obama’s chances….so | Read More »
I don’t care if you are re-elected
By: wennejunk (Diary) | March 16th at 09:42 AM |
GOP Senator. Congressman. Congresswoman. Governor. State Legislator. Elected official: I don’t care about your polling. I don’t care if you want to be re-elected. I don’t care if you are defeated and have to rejoin the civilian world. All I care about is that you fight the fight. Work your a** off to decrease the size, scope, cost and intrusiveness of government. Help restore our | Read More »
Thank You, Senator Shelby
By: wennejunk (Diary) | May 4th at 08:44 PM |
I had an interesting experience this past Sunday. I was traveling from Austin to Houston to catch a connecting flight. After having my boarding pass scanned I walked down the jet way and ended up behind a fellow who was a couple inches taller than I, probably 6’4″. We did not speak and boarded the aircraft, yet I recall there being something distinctive about the | Read More »
Irony, thy name is ‘Uncle’
By: wennejunk (Diary) | May 31st at 09:30 AM |
The quote is innocuous enough: “I am puzzled by intelligent people who stand by and allow their country to be taken over and run by extreme radical types,” Payne said. “I’m still somewhat puzzled by that. And I am fully aware that it could happen and has almost happened in this country. You know, I lived through the McCarthy era in the 1950s, when it | Read More »
From My Pastor
By: wennejunk (Diary) | October 19th at 08:25 AM |
Below is the body of a recent letter from my Pastor. This year we have the privilege of shaping our government through the exercise of our right to vote. We respect the separation of church and state. Both have their rightful autonomy as they pursue their distinct functions. The mission of the Church is the salvation of souls and the Kingdom of God. The mission | Read More »
For All You Depressed, Defeatist Poll Addicts:
By: wennejunk (Diary) | October 18th at 07:00 AM |
The last few days were stomach churning for me as multiple diaries began echoing the doom and gloom meme and ‘all is lost, run for the hills’. One even front paged our guaranteed defeat. Without going through all the “it aint over ’til it’s over” pap, let me just say: Keep your chin up and read this: The Left’s Big Blunder all the way through | Read More »
Ending the Separation of Church and State
By: wennejunk (Diary) | September 8th at 09:02 PM |
From Drudge, I picked up this article: Ban on Political Endorsements Targeted This is significant in that the Alliance Defense Fund(ADF – think of them as the ‘Anti-ACLU’) believes that current law is unconstitutional and in that they are willing to provoke a Court Battle over it. Firstly, ADF does not take on a case unless they feel they are absolutely in the right. If | Read More »
On Kay Bailey Hutchinson
By: wennejunk (Diary) | August 27th at 09:24 AM |
Erick’s Red Hot said No, John, Kay is not Acceptable. As a Texas voter, I agree. I think she’s a good (not great) Senator and may/may not be an improvement in the Governor’s mansion over Rick Perry, but her selection as VP will hurt the McCain campaign: She is Pro-choice. That will deflate the buzz in the social conservative ranks. We (many, not all) are | Read More »
An Update on Global Warming
By: wennejunk (Diary) | August 18th at 08:45 PM |
Given the non-stop barrage of Obama/McCain leading into the conventions the topic of Anthropogenic Global Warming has slipped off the radar screen for pretty much everyone. This is certainly true for the MSM; caught in the throes of a leg tingling big “O”, they can barely stop their panting long enough to remind the public that we are all going to die –soon- from man | Read More »
