Beware low bridge ahead…Constitutional views from the left

Today Mark Levin scared us all with a reading from Time magazine’s Managing Editor. I felt required to make sure this article was posted with the necessary and obvious rebutles. I was happy to see that a equally angered Conservative (@AaronWorthing) was faster at the keyboard than I and had already done the bulk of [...]

Turning Budget Battle Lemons into Lemonade

The budget battle has shown weakness in the GOP leadership.  It has shown they cannot negotiate under the barrage from the left and the mainstream media.  They won elections stating they would get control of the budget.  That they would start by cutting 100 billion from the 2001 budget.   Then it turned into a [...]

UK a harbinger of US future?

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 [...]

Haiti and Scott Brown

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 [...]

NY-23 Gingrich could not be more wrong

“If you seek to be a perfect minority, you’ll remain a minority,” Gingrich said in a written statement. “That’s not how Reagan built his revolution or how we won back the House in 1994.”

Why is Newt trying to rewrite history, including his own?  Does he believe sucking up to the Liberal Republicans will ensure [...]

Understanding the lefts view of health care reform

It is often difficult to connect on these complex issues.   In many cases we start with different viewpoints and a belief that we are diametrically opposed.   In many cases these divisions are driven by the news media and politicians to make their points.    A friend posted a video he found compelling arguing for socialized [...]

Obama speaks to your children

There has been a lot of hype about President Obama’s planned speech to public school students.   Over the long weekend that fervor hit our social network.   The simple question was, “what is the big deal?”

The simple answer (the one the left could not hear) was not the fact that he wanted to speak but [...]

Parade: Honesty about Hollywood Liberalism

I seldom read Parade magazine in the Sunday paper but these weeks caught my eye.   The lead story was about Shia LaBeouf of Transformer, Indiana Jones IV and Holes fame.  But that was not what caught my eye.  What caught me was the “In Over His Head?”   Interesting…what was up?

I was surprised [...]

This is what “news” has come to?

For Obama, hipness is what it is

This would not be so bad if this was Entertainment Tonight or even the Today Show, which are “almost- news agencies” already. But this was Politico. They spend about three written pages showcasing his “accomplishments” in being hip. Sighting authors of hip culture. I thought they we somewhat [...]
