Year: 2012

If you want to shut up an entire room full of anti-war left-wingers, just ask them what to do about the global terrorist network, or more specifically, Iraq. Actually, this SHOULD shut them up. But instead you’ll be treated to long, nonsensical diatribes about how this is about oil, imperialism, hegemony, why we should give […]

Rather than write an editorial this week, I decided to state my position on a lot of the major issues of the day along with a brief explanation so people can see where at least one Conservative stands on the issues. For ——– ANWR:: A huge source of oil on American soil that’s in the middle […]

Inexplicably, Al Gore has decided not to run again in 2004. That is probably going to force the Democrats to pin their hopes for 2004 on either John “The Boy Trial Lawyer” Edwards, Howard “Tax and Spend” Dean, John “The Hair” Kerry, or Joe “2nd Banana On A Losing Ticket” Lieberman. Having bad candidates is […]

I’m not going to try to snow you and pretend that the primary reason I favor an invasion of Iraq is because I want to see the Iraqi people liberated. To the contrary, the principal reason I want to see us remove Saddam is because I believe that is one of things we have to […]

If you picked up a paper in the last week or so, you probably got the impression that George Bush spent a year demanding an Iraqi invasion based on claims that Saddam had reconstituted nuclear weapons with uranium bought in Niger. But now that the war is over, we’ve found out that it was all […]

As a party, the GOP does a lousy job of reaching out to black voters. Maybe we run a few commercials here & there or the President gives a speech at the National Urban League and we go, “See? We made the effort. 90% of the black vote is going to go to the Democrats […]

With all the talk about “disparities” in innumerable contexts, there is one very important disparity that gets remarkably little attention — disparities in the ability to create wealth. People who are preoccupied, or even obsessed, with disparities in income are seldom interested much, or at all, in the disparities in the ability to create wealth, […]

In my previous two columns, I outlined the 10 questions we need to ask to find our next president. I believe them wholeheartedly, but I have one last question that is almost as important as all of them combined. And it is for all the GOP candidates. During former House Speaker Newt Gingrich’s November trip […]

Mark Levin’s hard work in researching, organizing and writing his new book, “Ameritopia,” will be a blessing for all who read it. Countless books chronicle the forward march of the liberal agenda and attempt to deconstruct the fallacies in modern leftist thinking. Many critique the statist policies the left has imposed on us the past […]

While most attention is focused on the presidential race and Republican hopes to oust President Obama from office, some significant steps were taken last week on issues dear to the hearts of conservatives. In Texas, a federal appeals court upheld the state’s sonogram law, which requires that women seeking abortions view a picture of their […]

I generally prefer to stay away from the fuzzy “Social Conservative” issues because they’re often so subjective & personal to most people that it’s difficult to change minds. Moreover, I’d probably qualify as a “tweener” when it comes to Social Conservatism. I’m more Socially Conservative than the average person, but I’m not in the same […]

Some people are annoyed by crying babies in a movie theater, people driving under the speed limit in the passing lane, any movie with Pauly Shore in it — you know, normal stuff. While all those things irritate me too, I get more perturbed with some of the things the mainstream media does on a […]

There are a lot of people in America, mainly on the left, who have a great love of international institutions, coalitions, and who crave approval from the rest of the world for every action our nation takes. Now don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with cooperating with other nations or taking help from countries […]

Here are few generalities about American politics that I believe to be the case. They’re not always true, but they’re good rules of thumb to keep in mind. — Don’t ever expect a conservative to get an even break from the mainstream media. — To the mainstream media and the left, every war is Vietnam. […]

Of course President Obama is not concentrating on campaigning, White House press spokesmen assured us — as the president headed off to Chicago for three fundraisers and a drop-in at his campaign headquarters, two days after a high-roller fundraising choked off traffic five blocks from the White House, with the assistance of a score of […]
