…ssivism, which would include military adventurism, expensive and exhaustive nation-building, and expanded, unaffordable and ineffective social programs ranging from No Child Left Behind to S-CHIP to Medicare prescription drug benefits, coupled with additional weighty regulations like Sarbanes-Oxley. On the whole, his administration skewed toward the worst excesses of TR and FDR and could hardly be called conservative, despite tax reform and an un…

…ns of the internet we are quick to scream about “human rights” violations yet right now in our own backyard our representatives are preparing to do the same thing under the guise of security. I know I’ve used this quote from Ben Franklin before but we seem to have the need to constantly be reminded of this. “Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” A few years ago a leg…

…ss conference. The Democrats showed to the country and the world the worst part of American politics and the really sad part is they are happy with this display. Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut and conservative Democrat Ben Nelson of Nebraska should be the most embarrassed for allowing themselves to be swayed by this back door diplomacy. But it’s not just Nelson’s and Lieberman that won concessions in closed-door negotiations, Louisiana Dem…

… debated in front of the American public. But, will it be a true debate at all? Or, will it just be a front in which enough pork will be put into the bill to get the votes of Joe Lieberman, Mary Landrieu, Blanche Lincoln, and Ben Nelson; the four Democrats who must be swayed into Harry Reid’s pack of wolves. The same pack of wolves whose intent is ruining America under the guise of health care reform. Each of these four has told Mr. Reid, in no u…

… of these circumstances, the use of the word hero is trivialized. A deeper problem is that ides of myth, legend and story hold a society’s culture together. The concept of the hero is central to these. By misapplying the hero label and refraining from using it when needed takes our culture in the wrong direction. I hope we can recover the sense of propriety about who we call a hero and what they did to be considered brave before it’s too late. A …

Republicanism is not lost but it is certainly a candidate for a “Progressive Lite” label….or what as “Congress is Useless” all about? http://www.hollywoodrepublican.net/2011/11/congress-is-useless/ And all that is supported in academia today is under the myth of “academic freedom”.

You may remember the hundred million dollar “cornhusker kickback” which was a bribe to buy Sen. Ben Nelson’s vote. Nebraska will no longer be favored.

“We must, indeed, all hang together, or most assuredly we shall all hang separately.” Ben Franklin 1776 Welcome to 2010 everyone, the year of the second American Revolution. This will be the year “we the people” take our country back. Sounds good doesn’t it. Sounding “good” is one thing, making it happen is another?
