Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan - That’s Supposed to be Good?

February 27th, 2008 at 8:43 pm » Comments (0)

On September 11, 2001 radical Islamic terrorists hijacked 4 airplanes and crashed them into 3 buildings (WTC counting as 2) and a field in Pennsylvania thanks to some brave passengers. You can’t get much more radical than Louis Farrakhan who is the leader of the largest US Islamic organization. He is severely anti-semitic and says [...]



Ombudsman Agrees, McCain Article Out of Line

February 24th, 2008 at 5:13 am » Comments (1)

The Ombudsman for the New York Times has come out critical of the Times insinuation that Senator John McCain had an inappropriate relationship with a female lobbyist last week.

Cartoonist - Gary Varvel

“The newspaper found itself in the uncomfortable position of being the story as much as publishing the story, in large [...]



Is Mexico Admitting Being an Avenue for Terrorists?

February 22nd, 2008 at 2:56 pm » Comments (0)

The headline reads, “Iraqi pair nabbed in Mexico,
headed to U.S. with fake IDs: Mexico suspects European ring of selling counterfeit Bulgarian passports for $10K”. Interesting. Hasn’t the right been saying that Mexico is an avenue of entry for Islamic terrorists for years? Seems like it if it hasn’t been.
From WND:
Two more Iraqis with false Bulgarian [...]

John McCain has been attacked by the New York Times for helping a friend who represented a cable company who had a pending action with the FCC. The Senator sent a letter in an attempt to get the FCC to look into the matter and now he’s accused of corruption.
The issue is the transfer of [...]

NYT Slimes McCain In Twisted Game of Political Truth or Dare

February 21st, 2008 at 9:46 am » Comments (0)

Anyone who has ever read my stuff knows that I am not McCain fan. There are two things that I’d never say about John McCain. The first being that he isn’t brave. The other being that he’s a liar because he’s neither. I do believe that sometimes his political loyalties get misplaced and because of [...]



Barack, Shady Foreign Businessman, Campaign Finances

February 20th, 2008 at 4:54 am » Comments (4)

I stated yesterday that the only way I see myself voting for Juan MexiCain is to prevent Barack Obama from pushing this nation into a depression from which I’m not sure we’d ever recover. Obama’s socialist plans, dirty deals, and shady past are starting to come to light and it may signal the death nail [...]



Hillary Acknowledges Fox More Fair, Chelsea Claims Hillary “Fiscally Conservative”

February 11th, 2008 at 11:23 pm » Comments (0)

In all of the squabble over the MSNoBodyCares David Shuster “pimped out” comment, Democrat Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton acknowledged to Politico Reporter John Harris on Washington’s ABC News affiliate WJLA that Fox News’ coverage of her campaign has been the most fair. Shocker! A liberal Democrat acknowledging that Fox News Channel is the most fair. [...]



Mr. MexiCain Takes Washington, Barely

February 11th, 2008 at 3:32 am » Comments (1)

Well to say that he won Washington is a bit premature. ABC News is calling it for MexiCain in spite of the minuscule difference in the vote count suggesting that the powers that be in the Washington GOP may have a bias.
The Washington state GOP ceased counting ballots with 87.2% of the precincts reporting according [...]



Just As I Thought, Climate Change Linked to Sun Activity

February 8th, 2008 at 3:52 pm » Comments (6)

I have been saying here and elsewhere for over a year that global climate change is a cyclic phenomenon closely linked to the activities of the sun. The naysayers have in the past attempted to challenge my assertions but to this point haven’t been able to produce any proof that isn’t tainted. But today, I [...]



TownHall Columnist Has It Backwards

February 8th, 2008 at 1:32 am » Comments (3)

TownHall.com columnist Janice Shaw Crouse claims in her latest article that Mitt Romney was forced out as a revolt by the people against online pundits, bloggers, and the Romney campaign pushing Mitt to the detriment of poor little Mike The Huckster and Juan MexiCain. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Mitt Romney was forced out [...]



Liberals: Slick Billy Bob Bubba, SHUT UP!

January 29th, 2008 at 3:15 pm » Comments (9)

The news reports are abuzz of liberals trying to convince Slick Billy Bob Bubba to take a step back from his campaigning efforts. Major Democrat leaders are abandoning Hillary in favor of Barack Obama solely based on the former Philanderer-in-Chief’s recent statements confronting Barack Obama.

Cartoonist Ken Catalino
FoxNews is reporting…
Like lovers scorned, Bill Clinton’s longtime liberal [...]



The “Bush Lied Men Died” Bamboozle Debunked

January 28th, 2008 at 8:14 pm » Comments (4)

With President George W. Bush’s final State of the Union Address coming tonight, it would be prudent to pay a little attention to a common misconception dominant in the minds of the politically apathetic American lemming*, namely “Bush lied about Iraq’s WMD’s”. There is no evidence that President George W. Bush lied about anything. Did [...]

In Mitt’s Defense and the Truth About Rudy

One of my allies in the war on liberalism sent me a comment that was rather disturbing. She said in response to my post Florida Could Be Key to Nomination After-All…
You’re wrong about Mitt, and I can prove it. I’ll send you an email, because it would take up too much room. He is a [...]



Emotion - Democrats Secret Weapon and Hold on the Weak Minded

January 23rd, 2008 at 12:31 am » Comments (10)

At the heart of the hold that Democrats have on the politically apathetic is emotion. They have the ability to tug at the heart strings of otherwise rational thinking individuals and make them forget to use their own minds and believe whatever they wish you to believe. This is the kind of hold that evil [...]



New Hampshire - A Lesson About Polling & Declaring Inevitability

January 9th, 2008 at 10:12 am » Comments (8)

You all know that I’m no fan of the main stream media, that goes without saying. In their zeal to be first to get the story sometimes they actually miss the story. The struggle to be first to know who will win certain political races sometimes backfires. Remember the 2000 elections? ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, [...]
