William F. Buckley, Jr. Nov.24-1925/Feb. 27-2008 It is hard for anyone who takes seriously their writing to begin what amounts to an epitaph article for Bill Buckley. Yet, failing to rise up enough to meet the challenge that demands your courage is not acceptable, either. So, I instead face my own inner-critics and undertake the [...] Read more »
As predicted (on this blog) the first of two spoilers is now in the race. Ralph Nader has tossed his pinhead shaped hat into the ring, thus potentially hurting the Democrats, and helping McCain. There is no question that Nader pulls more voters from the ranks of liberals, and this has to be very very [...] Read more »
Anyone who knows the left leaning Democrat Party should not be surprised to hear the following- they are tossing about the idea of changing the rules of a system in midstream, again. And, in order to prove that they are not just mean spirited children in adult bodies, this time they are even willing to [...] Read more »
Listening to the likes of Dobson and Coulter lately, as well as many other of the more far right conservative talking heads is like listening to children making threats. I remember when I was a child thinking “Oh yeah???!! Well, I will just kill myself, and THEN you will be sorry!” (I am not sure [...] Read more »
It is hard to believe our society can produce people who would honestly find that someone like Al Franken should ever be considered a serious political candidate. But considering he is attempting to run for Senator (Federal level) in the same State that elected Jesse Ventura Governor, the next words should be “Go Figure…” (Ed: [...] Read more »
“It all depends on what the definition of the word “is” is.” We’ve been there before, and here it comes again. Damage control, ‘Clinton-style’ Last week, when Hillary tried to steal Barack (“I am not a Muslim!”) Obama’s “Martin Luther King” mystique by implying that King did not do the work of the Civil Rights [...] Read more »
A recent Fox News Poll of Democrats has exposed some interesting insight into the fiber of the left. Much like those who have been mothers can stomach the worst of the worst from the bodily functions of their own offspring, but get the gag reflex when they have to deal with the same “ick” from [...] Read more »
Even though he is not even really in the running, I knew there was a reason why months ago I cheered for Thompson to get in the game. His “Cowboy” non-conformist, simple southern stubborn style was what I liked about him, and he showed some of it in the most recent debate. The moderator said [...] Read more »
Latest report? “Billary” Clinton’s campaign is dropping another ‘hint’. Remember about a month ago (was it even that long?) that Hillary Clinton’s campaign leaked that it had some dirt on Osama, I mean, Obama? It did not take but a day for Obama to speak out at a High School about his past drug [...] Read more »
It is amazing to me, the direction that the current campaign is taking us. The more traditional, respectable methods of campaigning and debating are giving way to hype and “rockstar” publicity tactics. Of course, I am talking about two of the Democrat candidates, Obama and Clinton. So what does an “I” for an “I”, and [...] Read more »
And, theeeeeerrrrre OFF and coming out of the gate is “You’re not a real Christian” followed closely by “You supported illegal immigration” and “This is your third wife you cheating bastard” and coming up on their heels is “You sold out the party for campaign finance reform” chased by “How did you like my position [...] Read more »
Americas Mayor, King of the flooded buses, is apparently leading by example when it comes to hypocrisy. While waxing political recently concerning how poor the voting frequency is of his constituents, Nagin said in a TV interview “It was kind of offensive to me, because here I am busting my butt everyday and all [...] Read more »
