Michael Moore, the New York Times and the Greatness of America

What a great country we live in. For all its warts, flaws and challenges, for all its detractors and critics – both within and without – the United States is truly a great nation.

New York Times Compromises Cheney and Rumsfeld’s Personal Safety

Oooo, the people at the New York Times thinks they’re so tough. They think they’re so smart. They think they’re so mean. And they’re acting just like the typical playground bullies who make such pompous claims about themselves. There’s a better analogy for their behavior. Infantile. They are...

About this Blog

In the classic Star Trek episode, The Omega Glory, a primitive people called the Yangs is at war with the ruling government. As the episode progresses, the Yang war drums are heard in increasing volume in the distance until the Yangs finally invade the government city and defeat their oppressors. Their victory won, the Yang chieftain utters a resounding phrase, “That which was ours is ours again!” This blog is now a war drum. I add it to the growing chorus of drums beating in the hills around the city of Washington DC. I do not advocate a revolution of violence and war. But I am joining others in beating our war drums for a peaceful and sweeping revolution at the polls starting in November 2010. This revolution will restore conservatives to power, and that which was ours – liberty, prosperity, restrained government, the rule of law, and personal responsibility - shall be ours again.
