Dennis, I heard the same a few minutes ago on Fox News Channel. If Ryan actually enters the race, I suspect it is a play for a VP slot. Ryan could bring geographical diversity to a Perry nomination.

Certainly, military pensions are the very last place I would look to make cuts. Just got off the phone with my son whom I asked about military pay while stationed in Afghanistan. He estimated the average unmarried Marine draws about $3500 monthly while deployed to a combat zone and about $1600...

The Obama admin would like to reduce outlays for military pensions. Given the choice of privatizing soldiers' pensions or privatizing Social Security pensions, the Democrats prefer soldiers take the hit. Under the current military pension structure, soldiers draw half their pay after 20...

Ann Coulter has come out of the closet as a supporter of homosexual marriage and other items on the gay agenda. Her stock among the conservative movement is declining rapidly. Christie is a social liberal as is Ann Coulter. I am beginning to think folks in the Northeast and Great Lakes region...

An unarmed people, whether they know it or not, are already subjugated.

Leo, I agree. Perry's vision for America is lightyears ahead of Obama's legacy of failure. There are no perfect candidates. Being the governor of a large border state, Perry had to find a pragmatic middleground that reflects reality, not rhetoric. Our nation will continue to struggle with...

The major news outlets, this morning, are saying the three major contenders for the Republican nomination are Bachmann, Perry and Romney. I fully agree. Pawlenty dropped and others will soon follow suit. Occasionally, NJ Governor Chris Christie gets a brief mention as a possible late...

An honest answer is always best.

OVM... have you studied the practice of McCarthyism? Are you familiar with its historical roots? In other words, do you have a clue what you're talking about? Why would you deflect attention away from a transgressor, even to the point of making excuses?

Two wrongs don't make a right. Really bad call.

Here is a blatant form of McCarthyism worthy of Old Joe, himself. This line of questioning was shamed out of public discourse more than 50 years ago. No EO member is required to prove his or her loyalty to anyone for any reason. This highly objectionable bullying tactic is used to silence...

Military.com is reporting a Kentucky man, Dakota Meyer, will be awarded the Medal of Honor in September for his heroics in battle as a US Marine while stationed in Afghanistan. Living recipients are rare. The full story can be found at Military.com Mobile | Headline News.

Greg, I assume the state of Michigan taught basic American civics at the junior and senior high school level. It would be absurd to have a President of one party and a Vice-President of the opposing party serving together. They stopped this silliness long ago, and for good reason. Conflicts...

Please refain from personal taunts. Surely, you have learned this lesson by now.

In Barack Hussein Obama, we have a Socialist running as a Democrat. With Ron Paul, we have a Libertarian running as a Republican. If either man ran under his true colors neither of them would have ever gotten elected at all. Libertarianism cannot get serious traction in the USA. Ron...

So, Ron Paul as part of the Establishment is fighting the Establishment from within the Establishment. Seems very Ron Paulish and futile.

Ron Paul is a very nice man. He comes across as totally sincere and thoughtful. Yet, Ron Paul is clearly not a threat to any major candidate, let alone the Republican Establishment. Ron Paul has served in Congress for 30 years. By definition, he is The Establishment. Someone who hasn't been...

This leaves me puzzled. Don't you partake exclusively of government healthcare at the VA?

Why would Rick Perry pretend to have Libertarian views? Perry is not a Libertarian. He couldn't get to first base portraying himself in that light. Insofar as I can discern, Perry has matured over a period of time to become a strong conservative voice. His entry into the presidential race...

If world currencies fail and we arrive at a point in time where gold is the medium of exchange, Mad Max will be looked upon as a prescient forerunner to reality TV. Except, as I recall, gasoline was their coveted item.
