    The Messiah selling us out

    It's hard to believe the Republican Party isn't playing this clip every day in TV ads all over the country. This speech says everything we need to know about Barack Hussein Obama. If someone this weak and naive gets elected president, we'll be at war with Iran within his first year in office...

    Illegal Immigrants & Crime

    Here's yet another story of crimes being committed by illegal immigrants in sanctuary cities. This one involves an illegal from El Salvador with a rap sheet a mile long whose life of crime was tolerated and evidently welcomed by - where else - San Francisco. In spite of being a known criminal...

    My complaint is that the Congress should spend less, not tax more. The other point is that we're about to get to the limit of taxation the rich and semi-rich (middle class) will tolerate. The people in this country that make $108,904 (the top 10%) and over pay 71% of all income taxes at today's...

    Here's some more food for thought directed at the "soak the rich" crowd, based on 2006 figures from the IRS: The top 1% of income earners (over $388,808) paid 40% of all US income taxes. The top 10% of income earners paid 71% of all US income taxes. The top 50% of income earners paid...

    For those wanting to do a little light reading, the link below will take you to a matrix at the Tax Policy Center's website which compares the two candidates' tax plans. The Tax Policy Center is part of the Brookings Institute, so this info should be fairly objective. Notice the wordiness of the...

    New yorker cover

    By George, you're right! There it is on Google - another rumor dispelled. I always thought his campaign was too astute to overlook a minor detail like confirmable American citizenship.

    New yorker cover

    It's fairly well established that in spite of his muslim name and upbringing in his early youth, it can not be proved that Barack Hussein Obama is a true muslim. It's my understanding that he still hasn't produced his birth certificate to confirm his citizenship. We've all heard the stories that...

    Impeach harry reik

    Talking about a lack of energy policy, it certainly goes back longer than 8 years. Over ten years ago, Bill Clinton vetoed the bill to allow drilling in ANWR; that act alone, if passed, could have alleviated a lot of the oil supply problems and the resultant pricing we are dealing with today...

    CHENEY the DICK from HELL

    I find it amusing that Kucinich isn't even taken seriously by his peers. It will be such a waste of taxpayers' money to fund his retirement, which he will probably spend in New Mexico scanning the skies for UFOs.

    CHENEY the DICK from HELL

    Ratwell quote: "Are you that ignorant? I mean reading your post I learn nothing. It is all based on a pro-war mindset. Geez. If you want we can send you over there to replace one of our soldiers." Read the post again, more slowly this time. Then answer the basic question that was asked -...

    California is SICK

    There are some pretty strong arguments in the scientific world that support the notion that homosexuality is caused by genetics. It just makes common sense that a natural function like sexual preference is not a decision that one makes at some point in his or her development. In 1973 the...

    Racist observation

    Greg - great comparison of N.O. with Charleston. Our family has vacationed almost every summer on Wild Dunes and my wife's uncle has a house on the beach there. We had a first hand look after the hurricaine, and the devastation from Hugo was incredible. However, Charleston came back good as new...

    California is SICK

    Actually, the title of the book is "Slavery by Another Name" - author Douglas Blackmon. Google yields several good excerpts, and it seems to deal with forced labor camps in the Deep South from the late 1800's to the early 1900's. Although just out in March 2008, it doesn't seem to have attracted...

    Obamma is Ahead in the Polls by a land slide

    Thanks for posting this prime example of BHO's platitudes and empty rhetoric.

    Obamma is Ahead in the Polls by a land slide

    That Obama beat Hillary is just evidence of what a weak candidate she was - everyone knew going in that she was one of the most disliked politicians in the country. Regarding the idea that a vote for McCain is a vote for war: in case some you haven't noticed, we're already in a war. The...

    Jewish Supremascism

    It's beginning to look like the threads started by this individual are just "drive-by postings" that are thrown out here to "push the buttons" of the conservatives and moderates that attempt to engage in reasonable discussions of relevant issues on this website. He never makes any coherent...

    Obamma is Ahead in the Polls by a land slide

    Forget Obama's race, Muslim heritage, the eloquent speeches somebody writes for him, and other such factors; evaluate his career and what he has ACCOMPLISHED since he got out of college that would qualify him to be president. Consider not what he says he will do, but what he has DONE in the...

    Countrywide Sweetheart deals

    Actually, this story has leaked out on a few news networks without much fanfare. As we should expect, congress has refused to look into this mess because they are afraid of what they will discover. However, just like the House Banking scandal the truth about this loan deal will bubble up to the...
