Her Democrat Debate Flip-flop

October 31, 2007

First off, I totally agree with Mike’s take on last night’s Democrat Debate.  She Who Must Not Be Named did a horrible job, but still looked more competent than the other lot.  All of them scared me with their defeatism and socialism.  True “Mischief Night” to borrow a phrase from Michelle Malkin’s live-blogging link in [...]

She Who Must Not Be Named Wins Democrat Debate

October 30, 2007

I have this Democrat debate on in the background and I’d like to let you all know that you’re not missing much. The donkeys still lack the seriousness needed in a Commander in Chief. John Edwards already sounds like a high school dropout who thinks he’s intelligent because he saw a Michael Moore [...]

Democrats Poor Record

October 30, 2007

This Politico article quote regarding the “revised” SCHIP bill says it:
“They spent $1.5 million through their various shill outreach groups attacking me and a handful of my colleagues,” Rep. Ric Keller (R-Fla.) said before the Hoyer meeting, “but they did not spend five minutes to approach me to ask for my vote.”
People are noticing.  Despite the [...]

Romney’s Amusing Blunder

October 29, 2007

Executive experience is an important asset for a Presidential candidate and rightly so. After all, the Presidency is the most important executive position in the world. The President is the Commander in Chief of the U.S. Armed Forces, the supervisor of the Cabinet-level department heads, the person who nominates Supreme Court Justices, and [...]

Grade the Parents? Yes!

October 29, 2007

I couldn’t help but laugh when I heard about Manchester, Connecticut’s Board of Education member, Republican Steve Edwards, suggesting that parents be graded on whether or not their children have had a good breakfast and are otherwise appropriately prepared for school!
Sweet Jesus would I love to do that for a change!  But only for shallow reasons.  Teachers [...]

Vote Democrat for Higher Taxes

October 29, 2007

When I was six, I remember my parents following the 1984 Presidential Election.  My mother had gotten two bumper stickers, one red one that just had the words “Reagan” on it, and a blue one that said, “Vote Mondale for Higher Taxes.”  Even at six, I instinctively knew that higher taxes were a bad thing.   The bumper sticker above should be [...]

Michael Gerson Tells us to Learn the Right Lessons from Iraq

October 28, 2007

In an upcoming Newsweek book spotlight, former Bush speechwriter, Michael Gerson asks the American people to learn the right lessons from Iraq.  He argues in his book, Heroic Conservatism, that Iraq was an important war in the history of the Mideast.  Democracy will take hold in the Middle East and, in his view, is the only way [...]

Big Brother 8: CBS Loses Even More Credibility

October 27, 2007

From the cut and paste editing of E.D. Donato, to the Diary Room influencing the votes, to changing the rules in the middle of the game, the hit CBS show Big Brother 8 was one of the most rigged television game shows since the old version of 21.  Until now, people had to rely on [...]

Iran Rips America, Israel

October 27, 2007

Not being ambiguous on how they feel about America and Israel, the Iranian military had an inspection march for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei where Zulfiqar (the Sword of Ali) rips through a Star of David and an American flag!  Of course, taking a cue from the leftist moonbat sentiment here in America, the American flag is [...]

Peter Paul Sours a Birthday

October 26, 2007

She Who Must Not Be Named turned 60 today.  It’s big milestone since much of that time she had to endure a loveless marriage of political convenience, smiling through moments when we could tell she wanted to stab Bill.  But, she made the choice to stay so I don’t want to hear it. 
But, I digress.
There’s [...]

Burning Bridges with the Politics of SCHIP

October 25, 2007

The Democrats love it.  They get to keep this SCHIP bill out there banging the President’s head against the wall over and over and over again just to make their twisted point:  Republicans want your child to be sick.  But, like Iraq and amnesty, the Democrats seem to be overplaying their hand here too. 
They’ve just scheduled the next [...]

Bush’s “Great Society”

October 24, 2007

The Ownership Society was supposed to have been a series of initiatives that President was looking to push in his second Administration.  It sounded good:  the more Americans own, the more they’ll care about their property and communities.  Instead of an Ownership Society, recent spending analysis shows that Bush beats Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” in [...]

Obama Gaffes

October 24, 2007

The darling candidate of the media is in a freefall.  Barak Obama does not run a politically-smart campaign.  First, he declares that he refues to wear flag lapel pins as a sign of his patriotism, and that he stopped wearing them after 9/11.  Now, in his latest gaffe, at a steak fry event for Sen. Tom [...]

California Continues to Burn

October 23, 2007

The big story on all the networks and the Internet over the past two days has been the swiftly spreading wild fires that are ravaging Southern California.  About 518,000 people have already been evacuated form their homes, 1300 known structures have been ruined, 45 people have been injured including 16 firefighters who were hurt battling the blaze, hotels [...]

Spanish Judge Misjudges His Own Authority

October 22, 2007

The United States does not have a monopoly on out-of-control judges.  Take Spain for example.  A Spanish judge recently ordered the Catholic Church to cancel a Valencia man’s baptism certificate.  The Curt Jester rightly questions the court’s jurisdiction and suggests that the man seek out “John the Debaptizer” instead.  Heh.
In all seriousness though, I wonder [...]

Bill Maher Experiences the Raw Left

October 22, 2007

Bill Maher is a leftist and has said some pretty inflammatory things that have irked the Right and the mainstream, but even Maher can be in the crosshairs of the loony, moonbat Lefties!  This video from Friday night demonstrates how even Bill Maher can be a target of the Left-wing nut jobs, especially those 9/11 conspiracy [...]

Chavez’s Religious Emergency

October 22, 2007

Hugo Chavez is creating a socialist paradise kingdom of his own.  We know he controls the media, we know he’s nationalized industry, we know he’s working with America’s enemies like Iran and Cuba, but now he’s setting his sights on the Catholic Church!  He doesn’t yet have control over the bishops, which came out recently [...]

Fox News Republican Debate

October 21, 2007

The following is this undecided conservative’s take on tonight’s Republican debate.
There were two winners tonight: Rudy Giuliani and Fred Thompson.
Tonight’s Winners:
Rudy Giuliani was one of tonight’s two winners. Once again, he demonstrated that he understands the dangers of the world in which we live. This was especially clear in his answer on the [...]

Republican Victory Strategy

October 21, 2007

In what is supposed to be bad times for Republicans, there are a few bright spots.  In Louisiana this week, Rep. Bobby Jindal (R) defeated 11 other candidates and won the Governorship with 53% of the vote.  Louisiana requires that candidates for office receive a majority in an open election;  if a majority is not [...]

Romney Wins Values Voters Straw Poll

October 21, 2007

Even before the voting began, most outlets reported with surprise the fact that Mitt Romney was well received at the recent Values Voters Summit. This surprise was compounded when Romney won the straw poll held by the largely evangelical Christian group. Unfortunately, the media’s bewilderment over Romney’s success stems from a bigoted conventional [...]

PKK, Turkey Ready for War

October 21, 2007

The separatist Kurdish Workers Party (PKK) have wanted an independent Kurdistan and special rights for Kurds in neighboring Turkey for quite a long time.  However, cross-border raids into Turkey, killing Turkish soldiers and civilians is a great way to get yourself into a war you can’t win. 
That’s just what may be happening. 
So, where does the US [...]

Albus Dumbledore is Gay!

October 20, 2007

JK Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, told a crowd at Carnegie Hall yesterday that the reason why the super-wizard and beloved Headmaster of Hogwarts Albus Dumbledore never found a true love was that he was gay!  Secretly smitten by the dark wizard and contemporary, Gellert Grindelwald, Albus never found joy in the comfort of women.  Some fans [...]

Forty-one Senators signed a letter designed to scold radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh for his alleged “phony soldiers” comment that has been discussed thoroughly on AOR.  So, when Rush was given the copy of the letter, which was sent to CEO Mark Mays of Clear Channel Communications Inc., he decided to have a little fun [...]

Kevin Stuck in a Rudd?

October 18, 2007

The UK Spectator’s Coffee House has collected some articles showing that after just one week of campaigning in Australia’s General Election, Prime Minister John Howard’s government is gaining on the opposition Labor Party. One poll even shows Howard gaining nine points on the issue of which coalition leader would make a better Prime Minister.
Now [...]

Sam Brownback Drops Out

October 18, 2007

Sam Brownback will drop out of the Republican race for President tomorrow.   Although he should applauded for his efforts to protect the rights of the unborn, Brownback’s departure is welcome.  The absence of Brownback will mean more time for the serious contenders, which will help our party make a more informed decision.  If only Ron [...]

Terror in Pakistan

October 18, 2007

Former Pakistani Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto returned from exile today in front of a crowd in Karachi of roughly150,000 supporters.  There was a massive security contingent for the procession, but that did not stop terrorists from setting off a small, then a large, bomb killing 30 (at this point) and wounding 100.  Bhutto was unhurt in the [...]

SCHIP Gets Flushed

October 18, 2007

Not exactly.  It’s still an exisiting government program that’s designed to help extend the scope of socialized health care and all that, but the really poor Democrat bill that President Bush vetoed went down today 273-156, or about 14 votes shy of an override.  So ends this phase of the Democrat’s demagoguery of a bad, irresponsible bill that offered [...]

Giuliani Gives Obama a History Lesson

October 17, 2007

Democrats often cite Ronald Reagan when trying to defend their inexplicable desire to negotiate with America’s irrational enemies like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. According to them, if Reagan negotiated with the USSR, then we can negotiate with a leader who spends his free time threatening to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. [...]

Dalai Does Washington

October 17, 2007

Emerging from his undisclosed location when no one is watching except those home-stricken few or college types just waking up, surfing down the channels on their way to Maury or Jerry, flipping around in between technical school commercials.  But, anyway.  Bush hit on a lot of good topics , each worthy of their own post: like [...]
