Update: Obama says they attended in spurts: The MSM is reporting on Obama’s STRONG condemnation of his pastor’s controversial, racist, American hating remarks. Sister Toldjah finds the defense laughable. Despite the holes in Obama’s repudiation, such as the fact that he was a member of Wright’s church for twenty years and apparantly never heard one […]

I was just talking to my wife last night about how McCain just might be real change vs Obama’s rhetorical change. McCain has a history of reaching across the aisle and has paid a price for it. I’m trying to think of when Obama actually reached across the aisle and nothing is coming to mind. […]

Update: Obama Wins Wyoming! The Obama campaign are outraged over the true words spoken by Steve King. (Video here). They want McCain to apologize for Congressman Steve King saying that Al Qaeda would celebrate if Obama won the presidency. I sure hope McCain doesn’t feel that he needs to apologize for the truth. Barack Obama’s […]

As the left freak out on this, keep in mind that the technique the media painted to be evil, waterboarding, has been used on three terrorists, all of whom had vital information on attacks in the planning stages. They also revealed that information after being subjected to this technique. Now a Democrat sponsored bill has […]

There has been plenty of debate over whether military detainees should be put through civilan courts in the U.S. The ACLU think so and even want the detainees in Gitmo to be dragged through American courts. The AP throws all objectivity out the window and picks a side of the debate. Unsurprisingly, they choose the […]

There is a rumor floating around thats got the hard left upset. To break an impasse over legislation overhauling the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, House Democratic leaders are considering the option of taking up a Senate-passed FISA bill in stages, congressional sources said today. Under the plan, the House would vote separately on the first […]

Update: From Is Obama the Messiah? Blog we find a disturbing quote from Barack himself: .. a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come down upon you, you will experience an epiphany … and you will suddenly realize that you must go to the polls and vote for Obama” – […]

…because, we all know they are for amnesty on illegal immigrants, but when it comes to patriotic American companies…well… The House failed to pass legislation extending the Protect America Act, and they are adjourning which will let the current legislation expire. It isn’t a reason to panic, because they still have a certain amount of […]

I ask the question because it isn’t out of the question. They are good friends with a history. It would be a smart move on the Maverick’s part to stilt up his lacking on conservative credentials. Could Thompson serve as the conservative concience? The ideological gravitas? Even…power behind the throne? How would the conservative base/blogosphere […]

I’m a pretty fair and open minded person. It is a blessing and a curse. It is a blessing because it allows me to understand, empathize, and deeply consider where different points of view are coming from….even if they are completely opposite of my own. Of course, it is a curse because in many cases […]

If you don’t know who Lynne Stewart is, allow me to briefly educate you. She is a disbarred terrorist sympathizing lawyer that thinks the Blind Sheik was a remarkable man. She faced up to 30 years for conspiring with a terrorist and got a slap on the wrist of 28 months in October of last […]

Update:Michelle has a petition for you to sign. Fox News gives us some details of Senator Jim DeMint’s (R, S.C.) efforts to revoke Federal funding that flows into the town of Berkeley, California over their recent decision to throw out military recruiters from within the confines of the city. U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., says […]

McCain wins South Carolina. Update: Michelle thinks this is the end for Huckabee. I hope so. Jeff Quinton has an excellent post on the Confederate flag factor. With 82% of precincts reporting, most everyone is calling it for McCain. The good news is that Lobo lost his bet to me. I won’t be buying a […]

A lot of people are talking about the latest ARG poll showing a last minute surge for Fred Thompson. It puts him at 21% beating Romney for the third slot by nine. Rainy weather is dampening the turn-out of voters, and who knows which candidate that will favor. I would think that issue voters would […]

Update: (Audio) Rick Santorum makes his own case against McCain I’m swiping the bullet points of this from Mark Levin: All I can say is that McCain is basically a Democrat on every issue except foreign policy and the war. I’ll also add that he should have went through with his attempt to change parties. […]

Jonathan Adler mentions the rumors fueled by the anti-Fred Politico on the eve of the Iowa primary that he would quit and endorse McCain if he showed poorly there. Fred supporters doubted and fought the rumors and Fred officials denied it. Robert Novak reports the rumors have been traced to the Romney camp. Published reports […]

The Ron Paulians must have whined and protested loudly! The Manchester Union Leader reports: UnionLeader.com has learned that the New Hampshire Republican Party has quit as a co-sponsor of tomorrow night’s nationally televised GOP forum on FOX News. The event had become controversial when FOX refused to include Ron Paul. In a press release, state […]

Isn’t it time for us to go back to small government? The video below is a great companion piece to my friend Gribbit’s post: Fred Thompson – Conservative, Strict Constructionist, Federalist “Before anything else, folks in Washington ought to be asking first and foremost, “Should government be doing this? And if so, then at what […]

Well, don’t get me wrong…he’s had many, many potential ones. He has had to come back and correct his mis-statements with the media too many times. Why is this one the major one? It is the one that the MSM is actually picking up on. I heard ol’ Carl Cameron on FOX news just say […]

Want to see the above ad played in Iowa? Fred would too, but needs your help. Rick Moran is leading the way for bloggers to help Fred Thompson in Iowa. Dear Friends, I am writing to ask for your help. All of us know the long odds faced by Fred Thompson in his efforts to […]

It wins the holiday messages from candidates hands down! He completely keeps overt politics out of it, and doesn’t even appear in it! Very classy, and doesn’t even plug his website. The subject matter is right on. This gave me chills. He could have went the overtly political route like Huckabee and Hillary, but he […]

Jay from Stop The ACLU here. First off, I just want to thank John for allowing me the honor of posting here. For my first post here, I’m gonna go retro and reach back to 2005 for one of my classics. Its an interview with former ACLU lawyer, Rees Lloyd. “For God And Country Forever […]
