Year: 2012

In the vice presidential debate, the two candidates, both Roman Catholics, were asked about their religious beliefs, how they impact the candidates’ political positions and specifically about abortion. This was the response of Vice President Joe Biden: “My religion defines who I am. And I’ve been a practicing Catholic my whole life. And it has […]

Do Americans want to make Barack Obama a one-term president so that they can replace him with a one-term governor? My biggest beef with Mitt Romney is that he won his way into the statehouse in Boston in 2002 only to use it as a perch to run for the White House in 2008. He […]

Had Vice President Joe Biden behaved toward Sarah Palin in their 2008 debate the way he behaved toward Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan in their debate last Thursday, he might have been denounced as a patronizing misogynist. In his debate with Ryan, the vice president was merely a jerk. Interrupting while someone is trying […]

Journalists, politicians and economists all seem to agree that the biggest economic issue currently worrying voters is unemployment. It follows then that most believe that the deciding factor in the presidential race will be the ability of each candidate to convince the public that his policies will create jobs. It seems that everyone got this […]

Forget about the debt, the economy, jobs, Obamacare, Fast and Furious, Libya, gas prices, and the middle class because the Left is obviously looking to center the remainder of the campaign around the single most crucial issue in America:: borrowing almost half a billion dollars a year from China so we can funnel it to a […]

The: CEO of Westgate Resorts made news last week: by telling his employees the truth – that he may have to fire them if Obama is re-elected. If liberals understood that corporations are in business to make money, not to act as government piggy banks, that wouldn’t have shocked them at all. Of course, if fish had […]

There is something worse than bringing a knife to a gunfight. That would be: bringing a rock to a gunfight. The fatal shooting of a teenager suspected of throwing rocks at U.S. Border Patrol agents has prompted strong condemnations from Mexican officials and human rights groups amid a sharp increase in agent-involved killings along the U.S.-Mexico […]

It’s like we’re in a time warp back to the 1970’s. Not the muscle cars and wild times of Studio 54, just the bad parts — turmoil in the Middle East, high unemployment, food and gas prices through the roof and an occupant of the White House with no clue how to deal with any […]

“When a wise man has a controversy with a foolish man, the foolish man either rages or laughs, and there is no rest.” –Proverbs 29:9 I was going to title this column, “How Not to Be a Smarmy, Bellicose, Horse-Toothed Dork Like Biden.” However, upon deeper contemplation I thought I’d direct it toward parents as […]

Vice president Joe Biden showed last night that he is not qualified to be a heartbeat away from the presidency. There was no dignity, circumspection, courtesy, civility or presidentiality in his performance in the debate with the GOP contender, Congressman Paul Ryan Biden came across as a windbag and a demagogue with his constant interruptions […]

Over the next few days, news media and Republicans will share video snippets of Thursday night’s vice presidential debate. Voters will get an extra helping of Vice President Joe Biden chuckling, interrupting, laughing, mugging, smirking and otherwise behaving completely inappropriately. What Team Obama described as “just Joe being Joe” steadily devolved into Joe just being […]

The United Nations was founded to provide a forum for the world’s nations to negotiate differences and avoid armed conflict. Its administrative role was restricted to policing peace agreements after they were concluded and providing humanitarian assistance. But now, the U.N. is trying to become the world’s government, superseding national sovereignty and making of the […]
