So America is the Bad Guy and the Bully?

I have had it with liberals who can only think of America as the bad guy, the bully, and so forth. From Madonna to Michael Moore (now there's a contrast for you!), liberals love to insult this country. I have a challenge for these people. It is very simple.

The President’s Duty is to Take Care of Us and Our Families – Shrillary

Shrillary thinks she knows what the President is supposed to do. I don’t have hard documentation for this, so I have to rely on the sound bite I hurriedly scribbled down when it played on the news this afternoon: “You don’t hire a president to make speeches. You hire a president to take care of you... Sign in to see full entry.

Supreme Court Upholds Voter Identification Law

Oh, the liberals are fit to be tied. They are furious, they are livid. Tuesday, the Supreme Court upheld Indiana state law requiring voters to submit photo identification to combat that the Court’s opinion called “in-person voter impersonation at polling places.” The hue and cry has gone on ever...

Democrats: The Party of Lawyers

A friend sent this gem to me. Unfortunately, I don't have a citation for it. The Democrat Party has become the Lawyers' Party. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are lawyers. Bill Clinton and Michelle Obama are lawyers. John Edwards, the other former Democrat candidate for president, is a lawyer, and... Sign in to see full entry.

Are Bush Energy Policies Irrelevant?

President Bush today blasted Congress for its inaction on the energy policy proposals that he has submitted to it, and called anew for drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Predictably, Senator Chuck Schumer (D-New York) immediately looked for a microphone into which he could vent his... Sign in to see full entry.

Is OPEC Getting Your Tax Rebate?

Yes, claims Senator Chuck Schumer (D-New York). From a story at http://apnews.myway.com//article/20080425/D9091DOO0.html: It's galling to think that taxpayers' stimulus checks will be lining the pockets of OPEC.

McCain Creates Furor in Blasting Ads Linking Obama with Racist Pastor

Republican presidential wannabe John McCain has his heart set on a positive, issues-oriented campaign. So much so that he is trying (the key word is trying) to order Republicans in North Carolina to stop running a new ad that challenges Obama over his pastor’s virulent hate speech. Check out this...
