What Did We Learn?

Posted on November 5, 2008. Filed under: Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

Obama beat McCain handily, 349 to 163 electoral votes. What we should have learned, I don’t know that we did. What we should have learned is that we have principles and ideals and we should stick to them. Ronald Reagan knew it, and we gave him victories. The 1994 Republican House knew that, and we [...]

The Loss of Conservatism

Posted on November 4, 2008. Filed under: News, Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

Image by Getty Images via Daylife If the major news media has succeeded today in discouraging conservatives from voting, the trifecta will be complete – Legislative, Executive, and Media. The blame for such a loss can be spread to many people. Let’s start at the top. I like President Bush, and I threw my entire [...]

Rob from the Rich, Stiff the Poor, Too

Posted on October 16, 2008. Filed under: Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

I stared writing about “Joe the Plumber” yesterday based on a story at the New York Post. Little did I know how huge the story was about to become. John McCain launched Joe the Plumber into the national spotlight during last night’s debate. My post was going to be about how Obama’s strategy results in [...]

Targeting Religious Voters

Posted on August 14, 2008. Filed under: Faith, Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , , |

I must be a target, then. U.S. presidential rivals Barack Obama and John McCain target religious voters on Saturday when as guests of one of America’s foremost evangelists they discuss faith in public life, AIDS, the environment and other issues. Neither of the candidates appeal to me from a spiritual conviction. McCain can be downright [...]

Presidential "Foot in Mouth" Contest

Posted on April 20, 2007. Filed under: Politics | Tags: , , |

I’m undecided on which Presidential candidate has placed more of their foot in their mouth than any other candidate. I thought John Edwards was winning – the man that described “Two Americas” getting a $400 haircut and showing which America he lives in. But now I think John McCain has swallowed his foot all the [...]

A Liberal Media

Posted on July 15, 2005. Filed under: Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , |

I have trouble sympathizing with Bill Clinton. WASHINGTON (AP) – Former President Clinton, defending his senator-wife’s statements on abortion, said Wednesday that Democrats are held to a double standard. The comment came during remarks to Campus Progress, a left-leaning student group. He said young people in his party should speak directly to conservative voters. He [...]

Anger at McCain over Judges

Posted on May 25, 2005. Filed under: Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , |

First off, let’s be clear about what happened yesterday. There was no “compromise.” The Republicans gave in, the Democrats won. Judicial nominees, by US Constitution, are nominimated by the President and the Senate is supposed to “advise and consent.” In other words, vote. The “compromise” lets the Republicans vote on 3 judges, Priscilla Owen, Janice [...]

Democrat Suicide Watch

Posted on June 18, 2004. Filed under: General | Tags: , , , , , , , , , |

Found this at “Blogs for Bush”, but actually penned at “The Common Virtue”. Imagine, for a moment if you will, that you are a liberal Democrat. Then imagine what it must have been like for them to wake up this morning and find every reason for their arguments against President Bush absolutely obliterated. The article [...]
