Is Articulate Rhetoric A Presidential Qualification?

August 12th, 2008 at 11:06 am » Comments (4)

That seems to be the question of the season.
Many on the left (and right for that matter) use George W. Bush’s problems with vernacular as a measure of his intelligence and attempt to equate his problematic use of language (rhetoric) to his ability or qualification to lead. This is a false assumption. Many can speak [...]



Energy Independence - Where’s the ‘Hope’ and ‘Change’ Man and His Party?

August 7th, 2008 at 3:51 pm » Comments (2)

I’ll tell you where they are… ON VACATION!
I’m taking time out from caring for my premature special needs newborn daughter because I am furious over the actions of Congressional Democrats and the ignorant rhetoric from Barack Hussein Obama.
Mr. Obama had the audacity to call anyone who points out the stupidity of his insistence that Americans [...]



Obama Entourage Includes Big 3 Alphabet Anchors

July 19th, 2008 at 2:12 pm » Comments (1)

Media outlets have been plush with stories in the past couple of days touting Barack Hussein Obama’s rock-star sized entourage as he makes his media event tour of the Middle East and Europe. But what one must remember when reading about Mr. Obama’s inflated entourage of cheerleaders is the fact that the anchors of the [...]

McCain Closes Gap According to AP/Ipsos Poll

April 10th, 2008 at 3:14 pm » Comments (0)

Regular readers of this blog will understand that I only watch one poll. I only rely on data collected and reported by Rasmussen Reports.
That said, however, new Associated Press/Ipsos polling indicates that John McCain has closed the more than 10 point gap between he and Illinois Senator Barack Hussein Obama.
From Breitbart.com:
Republican Sen. John McCain [...]



RINO War May Lead to Liberal Victory

April 10th, 2008 at 7:37 am » Comments (5)

The RINO tag may lead to a defeat in November for the Republican nominee. There are plenty of my compatriots out there who cannot bring themselves to vote for John McCain because of McCain-Kennedy or McCain-Feingold or even the proposed McCain-Lieberman bills. I understand their position and I must say that I agree with their [...]

Can Obama Be Any More Stupid?

April 8th, 2008 at 6:41 pm » Comments (2)

Barack Hussein Obama wants to have open talks with a nation which took 52 United States citizens hostage and held them for 444 days. He wants to have talks with a man who has been suspected of being one of the “students” who took those 52 people hostage. What a numbskull.
Forgive me for being a [...]



Oops She Told Another Tall One

April 7th, 2008 at 12:11 am » Comments (1)

Hillary Clinton must have a major detachment from the truth and reality.
She’s been using a story out of Athens, Ohio where supposedly a woman died after being refused treatment by a hospital because she didn’t have $100 to pay up front. First off, anyone with half a functioning brain cell knows that a hospital cannot [...]



Don’t Tell Harry Reid, New Report Shows Progress in Iraq

April 4th, 2008 at 3:30 pm » Comments (2)

Or for that matter, Barack Hussein Obama or Hillary Clinton because that would just burst their little bubbles.
Both Presidential candidates and Harry “the Human Sleeping Pill” Reid have been out there down-playing any talk of progress in Iraq credited to “The Surge”. But perhaps they all need to read USA Today.
A new classified intelligence assessment [...]



Gallagher: A Radical in the White House

April 4th, 2008 at 1:55 am » Comments (0)

As an insomniac I’m up late every night and have the opportunity to read the newest postings on TownHall. Today Mike Gallagher has an excellent post dealing with Barack Hussein Obama’s radical beliefs and voting record on abortion.
A Radical In The White House
In the article Gallagher points to Obama’s support of the gruesome practice [...]



Chairman Dean Beginning to Feel the Heat

April 3rd, 2008 at 11:34 pm » Comments (2)

Life as the DNC Chairman isn’t all beer and skittles for Chairman Dean these days. He’s got to take time out of his BDS driven psychopathic rampages in order to make an attempt at unifying his own party before the rifts being created by Obama and Clinton don’t become permanent fractures within the Party.
From FoxNews.com:
Democratic [...]



Clinton Says Obama Can’t Win; I Agree But Neither Can She

April 3rd, 2008 at 3:00 pm » Comments (0)

It is being reported, that while courting Bill Richardson (no relation) Hillary Clinton told Richardson, “He cannot win, Bill. He cannot win.” I couldn’t agree more. But she and liberal America put stock in polls like Quinnipiac. They change which polls they pay attention to depending on which puts them in the best light.
I however [...]

Fellow Conservative Blogger Pulls a Fast One on Daily Kooks

April 2nd, 2008 at 12:01 am » Comments (3)

Yesterday was April Fool’s Day and fellow Conservative Blogger John Bambenek (Part-Time Pundit) sent our “friends” over at the Daily KOS a little joke. He wrote a diary entry saying that he had converted to Obamamania.
And let’s be clear, it was a joke. I’ve been in contact with John and he’s rolling at the response [...]

Obama Goes Bowling for Voters - Doesn’t Do Well

March 31st, 2008 at 3:00 pm » Comments (3)

Sen. Barack Hussein Obama (D IL) has had his tank riding moment. He went bowling with Sen. Bob Casey (D PA) and housewife Roxanne Hart Saturday night.
Now before I pick on Barack Hussein’s pitiful performance on the ally, I must remind anyone who may have forgotten that bowling is a huge thing in the Keystone [...]



Another State Shifts From Dem to Toss-Up

March 31st, 2008 at 12:16 pm » Comments (0)

New Hampshire shifts from the “Leans Democrat” category to “Toss-Up” according to the latest from the Rasmussen Reports “Election 2008: Electoral College Update“.
From Rasmussen Reports:
Democrats continue to lead in states with 190 Electoral College Votes while Republicans are favored in states with 189 Votes. State with 104 Votes are “leaners,” and states with 55 Votes [...]



Dem In-Fighting WILL Lead To McCain Victory in November

March 31st, 2008 at 11:56 am » Comments (1)

John McCain is taking the high road of politics for the time being as the two remaining Democrat contenders beat each other to figurative bloody pulps. This may be the key to victory as McCain can claim that he did not go negative as the two were weakened. McCain can deliver a true positive message [...]
