Conservatives: Don’t Let the Obama Crisis Go to Waste

Demolishing the Shining City on a Hill

One of President Reagan’s most famous quotations was his repeated reference to America as a “shining city on a hill,” an allusion to the bright light of liberty that set it part from the rest of the world. Ever since the Democrats won control of Congress in 2006, the statists among them have been... Sign in to see full entry.

Is this a time for fear?

I’ve heard conservatives say that they are afraid for the future of the country. I say this is not the time for fear. I’ve wasted much of my life’s energy giving in to fear, and I am through being afraid of what needs to be changed. Does this mean I’m going to start daring gravity from high places?...

Obama Stands Down from Forcing Veterans to Pay for Combat Wounds

Earlier this week, I vented my outrage over President Obama's eagerness to force wounded combat veterans to pay for their own medical care as a cost-cutting measure. I am pleased to report that he has relented. From an article posted at http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0309/20190.html: President... Sign in to see full entry.

Was the AIG Bonus Scandal a Setup to Enforce Obama Policy?

Given the Democrats’ hell-bent determination to strangle the freedom and prosperity out of this country, I have to wonder.

Congress Passes Unconstitutional Tax Law

I do not buy for an instant the feigned outrage the Democrats (and the Republicans who want to win cheap popularity) over the AIG bonuses. Not for one second.

Senators Fail to Read Porkulus, Damn AIG for Acting on What They Passed!

When the Democrats rammed the Porkulus bill through Congress, it was obvious that many if not most of them didn’t have the slightest idea what they were voting on. Most of them simply toed the party line and voted for it. So now every one of those Democrats is up in arms because of the AIG bonuses.... Sign in to see full entry.
