From the Rush album 2112.   Listening again…to the political message in this album.
“Something For Nothing”
Waiting for the winds of change
To sweep the clouds away
Waiting for the rainbow’s end
To cast its gold your way
Countless ways
You pass the days
Waiting for someone to call
And turn your world around
Looking for an answer
To the question you have found
Looking for
An open [...]

I watched Tuesday and Wednesday’s (3/9-3/10) shows and the work at the chalkboard.  I have to admit that I had a light bulb/AH HA moment. I do not believe that my “discovery” was your intent and may already be obvious to you and your audience. To me it was that dot that connected a few [...]

I have been thinking a lot about deep conservative values lately.  Not just big government is bad and debt will kill us.  That reaches across the isle (at least part way across a wide isle).   But more deeply about (to use Mark Levine’s terms) Liberty and Tyranny.   About how and what our founders were thinking.

As most have reported the Health Care summit was a bit of a show, with both sides trying to push their agendas and no real bi-partisanship.    This, being the Republicans first time with a national spotlight on their plans, allowed them to stand out.  Even David Gergen recognized this.
In the end, there was one back [...]

You may have heard about the Canadian Premier that decided he wanted a more advanced surgery then his home country was willing to let him have.  He decided to pick the best doctor from the best hospital which happened to be (no shock) in the United States.  ”My Heart, My Health, My Choice”  does not sound anti-freedom Canadian Socialist… it sounds almost [...]

Radigan postulated in relation to Bank bonuses on the Today show that, no one is special!! It is just about access to your money by those who run banks.

Does he really believe this???  [Insert robotic monotone here.]   WE ARE ALL EQUAL.  WE ARE ALL THE SAME.   NOONE IS SPECIAL.   VICTIMS OF LIFE’S LOTTERY [End [...]

I was excited to watch the re-birth of V, a mini-series from my childhood.   It has been updated to modern times.   Definitely had the feel of Heroes and/or Fringe.  But what was most stunning was the wording of the Visitors…Hope, Change, Universal Health care.
I stuck me as very anti-government, anti-big brother.   I was unaware of [...]

Some Positive Reactions From The Right
Thank you Dennis for your optimism. I agree mostly with point 1 and whole-heartedly with point two. However, you are far more optimistic then I on the rest.

Point 3: Liberals are in the process of creating a plurality of Americans that pay no income tax. Race is not [...]

I guess the basic difference in plans is that Democrats believe that there is a specific amount of money in the system and you must move it around and setup controls to make sure the system is fair. Republicans believe that there is never a limit to the growth potential of the US economy [...]

I heard it yet again twice today. This time clearly state don Lou Dobbs Tonight and eluded to on Hannity and Colmes. It is the seemingly honest statement that the Bush tax cuts are the cause of the current deficits. The problem is that this common opinion is absolutely false. [...]
