Ending the year with good karma…
Go GOP in 2008!!!
With a solid message, a great messenger, and a positive attitude we can keep the White House, take the House and hold things in the Senate. It’s going to be tough, but I’d pick an elephant over a donkey in any fight!
Soon we’ll be divulging our picks for [...]

My final post of 2007 concerns an article in the UK’s Independent article by Bruce Anderson, a man who apparently owns the same crystal ball I do (not that it’s a particularly good crystal ball, but it has been known to work on occasion). Anderson’s prediction, identical to mine, for the 2008 Presidential [...]

If you sneak a post in at 12:02 am, make it a good one this time! Happy New Year!

Another reason why I don’t like Huckabee: he plays the holy card, tries to seem above the fray by attacking those who point out his record to the public, calls a presser to say that he’s pulling an ad to remain above that fray, then shows it to the press!
They laughed at this obvious and [...]

TIME.com has an alphabetical list of people in the public eye who have left us this past year. I actually forgot how many celebrities/figures we lost this year– it was a pretty rough year.
Here’s the edited list (I added two, which have links):
Historical Figures
Benazir Bhutto (1953-2007) Pakistani socialist democrat (little “d”).
Lady Bird Johnson (1912-2007) former first lady to [...]

Patti Davis has written in piece in Newsweek asking candidates to stop invoking her father’s name on the campaign trail. She is especially critical of Mitt Romney, at one point slamming him for delivering a speech about faith. According to Davis (thank God she chose not to invoke her father’s name), her father [...]

Until now it’s never been done in NFL regular season history, but it became a reality Saturday night as the New England Patriots defeated the New York Giants 38-35 in probably the most exciting “meaningless” game I’ve ever seen. Both teams had their playoff seeds locked up, but they both played their starters for the [...]

Every four years, Peggy Noonan implores the parties holding Presidential primaries to simply nominate a normal person. Her quadrennial plea is often amusing, and usually close to right. Like most normal informed Americans, Noonan prefers a Republican President, but she does have some kind words about some Democrats with whom she disagrees.
I don’t agree with [...]

Wow! It only took about 36 hours for someone in the MSM to try to blame Bush’s policies for the death of Benazir Bhutto. I know that none of you saw this because it appeared on MSDLC’s “Morning Joe” program, but the good people at NewsBusters were kind enough to dig it up. Info-babe Mika Brzezinski [...]

Pakistani democratic activist and former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was killed by a suicide bomber today after a rally in Rawalpindi, just south of Islamabad. She was shot twice before the bomber blew himself up. About twenty others were killed along with her in this attack, which was the second such attempt on her life since [...]

The Drudge headline is currently touting an ARG poll which shows She Who Must Not Be Named leading Barack Obama by 15 points. As someone who still thinks the Democrat primary will be nothing but the witch’s coronation, I can say that we should not believe this for one second. Call the last [...]

The Union Leader has an interesting piece on why Mitt Romney has been losing ground to John McCain in New Hampshire. According to the UL, Romney “lacks something John McCain has in spades: conviction.” I think that’s only half right.
If voters were to judge the candidates solely by what they’ve said during the campaign, [...]

The constant liberal media and Democrat attacks on President Bush over the last few years have done permanent damage to how we, as Americans, view our 43rd President. Most people I know don’t even know why they hate Bush, they just do. Bush’s persistent problem has always been his poor articulation of vision and lacking the [...]

A very Merry Christmas to you and your family from all of us here at Axis of Right! May you have good times, good cheer, see people you love and get every gift you were looking for!

Great Barrington, Massachusetts, was recently the target of Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly because of the town’s decision to turn off the Christmas lights at 10pm to cut global warming emissions. Every year the battle resumes: making Christmas a Christian holiday rather than a secular one. One can’t blame Christians for this reaction: it is their [...]

I was waiting until the Patriots actually achieved the 16-0 regular season record before writing a post on this season’s achievements (knock on wood, the 14-0 Pats still have to beat the 1-13 Dolphins and the 9-5 Giants). Since the infamous “Spygate” incident in Week 1, all but a few reporters and Jets fans have seemed to [...]

Global warming is taking place. It’s slow, unsteady, and unpredictable, but it is measurable.
However, what impact have humans have on this warming?
That’s the zillion dollar question. A recent US Senate Report sponsored by the GOP lists and references 400 scientists that tell of a story that is quite different than the Leftist “consensus” that industrial nations, SUVs, and [...]

Adding more fuel to the fire this week is this from Michelle Malkin’s blog as well as Annie C’s new column regarding the political missteps that Mike Huckabee has made in the last week. Even Condi handed Huckabee a scathing retort on one of Huckabee’s recent misinformed, liberal-sounding foreign policy pieces.
My advice to Huckabee: start acting like a [...]

Reading George Will’s latest column, which actually discusses the details concerning She Who Must Not Be Named’s limited experience, makes it obvious that candidate has not learned anything from her past mistakes. The real issue next year (or in a couple of weeks), whether we’re discussing SWMNBN’s experience in selecting a competent Attorney General [...]

Representative Tom Tancredo, realizing that he can’t win, has bowed out of the race for the Republican Presidential nomination and has thrown his support to Mitt Romney. Tancredo was, unfortunately, a one-trick pony: illegal immigration was his mantra and basic Republican ideals were squeezed in to deal with every other issue. Though he will be [...]

A Lakota Indian delegation, part of the Greater Sioux Nation of Indians, has formally withdrawn from all 33 of its treaties with the United States Government and wants to speak with the embassies of Bolivia, Venezuela, Chile and South Africa. They are citing the US Constitution as justification for their actions based on a 1980 treaty Congress approved (there’s the [...]

Vladimir Putin. Tsar Commissar General Secretary Vladimir Putin the Great/Terrible, Man of the Year. Seems to work for this power-hungry new version of an old Russian habit: autocratic rule through violence, intimidation, political assassinations, and saber-rattling. I’m disappointed. I honestly thought that Time would have chosen Algore for his global warming farce and anti-American rants at international [...]

The Clinton’s are so obnoxious it stops being funny on occasion. While campaigning for She Who Must Not Be Named, BJ recently said:
“Well, the first thing she intends to do, because you can do this without passing a bill, the first thing she intends to do is to send me and former President Bush and [...]

If a candidate has to use valuable campaign time to convince people that they are “likable,” then they have a real problem. She Who Must Not Be Named has sent her husband (I use the term loosely) and others to campaign, not on the issues and the campaign’s message, but rather that she is a likable [...]

Elizabeth Edwards, the picture of charm itself, has admitted that she’s actually afraid of Republicans. This really isn’t surprising when you remember that she’s also afraid of being decent to her neighbors, backing up asinine statements with something that at least resembles a fact, Holy Water, and letting her husband fight his own battles.
This latest [...]

Former Democrat Vice Presidential nominee Joe Lieberman will endorse John McCain for President tomorrow. Under normal circumstances, winning praise from such a prominent Democrat is nothing to brag about, but these are interesting times we’re living in. With the nation at war and most national Democrats actually trying to undermine our efforts, Lieberman’s support for [...]

In today’s Culture Wars battlefield, even speaking the common language is a concept under assault by the Left and foes of the kind of assimilation that for over 200 years has aided new Americans in achieving the American Dream.
I’ve driven by, but have never been to, Geno’s Steaks in Philadelphia. In the window is a [...]

I think I’ll break up this string of anti-Huck posts.
Gordon Brown signed the renamed EU Constitution the other day, and he is rightfully taking a lot of heat for it. The thing is, in the 2005 election, the Labour Party manifesto promised to hold a referendum before the UK would adopt the EU Constitution. The [...]

I have absolutely no use for Mike Huckabee anymore. His new foreign policy article to appear in an upcoming issue of Foreign Affairs really does reinforce Huckabee’s own farce of his foreign policy experience: “I may not be the expert as some people on foreign policy, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express [...]
