Democracy Now!: The Tsangarai and Mugabe Report

This gives me some positive hope. I'm glad to see that progress is being made in Zimbabwe on this front but I wonder what pushed the two sides to come together in this way? Historical lessons tell me that, most likely, some outside force exerted said force in the proper way on Mugabe. Whatever the...

It's time for some campaigning!

ESTÚPIDO SAVANNAH - Tuesday, July 08, 2008 9:32:52 AM

I'm being very lazy this week. I'm just not getting into the whole election thing and, hey... SUMMER! I do, however, encourage voting and along those lines I encourage you to read Savannah Red's latest missive. It is all about two candidates who want to lead the Mutants and R-tards that run the...

Obama the Puppet

If America sits back and allows this man to be elected President, I don't want to hear any whining and bitching when the extremists start instituting all the marxist programs they want. I've been getting emails from folks who are talking third party candidates and staying away from the polls. Do...

The Attack-Dog Pol who taught a lesson

You most likely won't know the name, unless you hail from New York (upstate NY in particular). But you will recognize the makeup of the man. He's the CEO who tries to corner the market, the weekend softball player who slides into second with his spikes up, the political operative who views a victory...

Barack Obama’s Record of Poor Judgment

Once again, the folks at Family Security Matters have nailed it. As an extreme liberal, Mr. Obama's priority is to weaken national security, not strengthen it. He wants face-to-face meetings with America's enemies but won't meet with Chris Wallace on the Fox News Network. He has pledged to withdraw...

A Message From Our Friends at Vets For Freedom

H/T Blackfive Ben Hayden Iowa State Captain, VFF As America moves closer to November, we need to be informed on the issues. One issue that is very misunderstood is the war in Iraq. A number of Americans are basing their decision in the 08’ elections on this topic, which makes it extremely...

Mr. Mugabe Wins

The subtitle of this Washington Post editorial is “His campaign of terror will keep him in power, barring an international intervention.” The UN (ergo international intervention) allows Iran to acquire nuclear power. Iran is a psycho-Islamist regime. The UN allows genocide Darfur, Sudan. The UN...

This Is Just Wrong

H/T to my good friend Chris at Modern Conservative. Barack Obama made it clear yesterday that he is not running for president, he is running to be our great National Leader. When the Obama logo and presidential seal collide The seal includes the same bald eagle as the actual presidential seal...

2008

With all the jeering, nasty factions, and millions being expended, sometimes I fear that this election is just a phony display of spatial images. Where's the horse-blood in a bucket? This is why the U.S. loses credibility. Sigh.

Conservatives MUST Act

From American Thinker H/T to my good friend Coby from GOE If Barack Obama wins in 2008, by 2010 or 2012 the voters might realize what a dismal mistake they've made. But that might be too late. It gives the radical Left between two and eight years of unrestrained power, plus two or three Supreme...

My Post Primary Media Gripe

With the race for the White House now finally set between John McCain and Barack Obama much of the media’s previously scripted blubbering, and the faux-partisan howling so freely used during the late lamented primary season has now given way to the news biz just dully focusing their commentary on...

From Col Riley USA Ret

TO: John McCain and the RNC, Your latest solicitation for our money has a lot of "I want…" statements in it. Merely saying "I want…" does NOT impress me and won't get the job done! I would like to hear some "I WILL…" AND MEAN IT ! If you want our money, and our vote, then "WE WANT" some ACTION...

Regular Wednesday post: This one focuses on changing our Presidential election process. I don't claim to know a lot about the process, so this is just my wish list of things. 1.

Black Dudes Don't Surf – Ch. I (con't)

The irony is that Barack Obama won the nomination because he is not perceived as being "black" by the people whose votes count: white Americans. If Obama were to be perceived as "acting black" like say, Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson, Hillary would have won easily. Whites accept Obama precisely...
