The short answer as with many large policy issues is “Absolutely and to the core of their policy direction.” I am not talking about GOP arguments against Obamacare, their promises to repeal it or any new plans. I am talking about passed (past) legislation that can be reviewed in practice. I am talking about [...] I wanted to give a few anecdotes from our days in DC. Not a review (you can find that here) of the rally but rather a set of events that give the weekend a greater context and flavor. I hope you find them educational, if not entertaining. 8/27. 1. Liberals really are rude…and easy to [...] “Thousands gather as Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin lead controversial Washington rally” and “Sharpten Rally fills football field” that is how CNN was covering it by the time I reached the airport. Since the reflecting pool is about 2000 feet long (5.5 football fields). We could estimate the Restoring honor crowd at about [...] When it gets too hard to dig through all of the spin on both sides, I tend to take a step back, read the actual bill and act on common sense. This alone proved to me that the Democrats and the President were not being truthful. They continue to try and shoot down the [...] I was listening to Atlas Shrugged (audio book) yesterday when I had an unexpected and profound response. Maybe is was the timing, after a long commute, a long work day and the night of the State of the Union. But an element of the first conversation between Dagney Taggart and the newsstand owner caused me to physically tighten my [...] Like many I am impressed at the delivery of the speech, the words and inflection delivered with precision.

Legislative inaction The first was when the President scolded [...] I did not expect to get too much out of Glenn Beck’s documentary. A rehash of Hitler’s rise to power and communist murders. I know they are bad and progressives are leaving those details out of history. I appreciate his attempts to right history and fight back. That alone warranted viewing. But there was an [...] This is an email from last year that was held privately for a while. I have received enough follow-up that I believed it needed to be posted. As you know [or maybe not] I have just come back from England and the Labor Government is just as shameful as our Democratic one. The [...] An odd combination but they have something remarkable in common… The American People. Both have served to show, that when it comes down to it; Democrats, Republicans and Independents, there is a lot we share as Americans. The media, in pursuit of the every important rating point (dollars but the Liberals don’t like to admit [...] Much has been made about Harry Reid’s attempt to link opposition to heath care to opposition to slavery, woman’s rights and civil rights. “You think you’ve heard these same excuses before, you’re right. When this country belatedly recognized the wrongs of slavery, there were those who dug in their heels and said, slow down, it’s [...] |
