…IME recently ran a column which attempted to answer the question, What does a Conservative believe? In a tectonic shift of TIME editorial practices, they decided to ask a Conservative to answer the question, rather than tap a Liberal from their staff to write a hit piece. What follows are a few of the points Peter Wehner makes in his column followed by my application of those points to The Super Bowl. “[Conservatives] believe in equality of oppor…
Two nights ago, I was lying in bed reading the “New Yorker.” I know it is a very liberal periodical, but usually I like to learn both sides of issues. I, not like many people in the political spectrum, listen to both sides equally and make my opinion based upon a fair sampling of the material. It is one of the reasons I started this column. I want to give both sides a place to voice their opinions. There is one weekly column in the “New Yorker” …
… industrious and the opportunistic, between the productive and the litigious, between the larger-than-life and the petty. The racial and regional stereotypes that lurk in the background, and in the backs of the minds of every liberal hoping to undermine both Cain and Perry, are nowhere near as significant as the every widening divide between citizens who believe in self-reliance, thrift and hard-work, and those parasites in search of a lottery-st…
…hose conservative moral values? We need to know this before we can proceed. Most of the conservatives I’ve talked to are not shy about what they believe in. To list them all would take too long so a link to Conservative vs. Liberal values can be found at the end of this article. Most of those issues have been “hot topics” for quite some time and a large section of this country does not subscribe to all of those beliefs. Americans are indeed ang…
…of dollars in additional economic stimulus packages in order to solve this deepening economic crisis. Of course, while he was doing this, he was apologizing to the world for being an American and for American “arrogance”. The liberals in this country seem to think that apologizing is more effective than other types of foreign policy. Of course, none of this kowtowing succeeded and Obama came out of the G20 summit with nothing at all. In fact, oth…
…g up the crew of the Stockdale showed extreme patriotism and made me proud to be an American. These young men and women will do anything; even give their lives for love of country. And, they do it under the scrutiny of the liberal media and liberal extremists that basically do not even want the military to exist. I must say that during the centuries old ceremony, I was almost brought to tears a few times. This is especially true when I think …
…of the Obama Coalition”, Thomas Edsall, by pushing “takers” into a non-working, entitlement, nanny state, socialistic philosophical ideology. 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”. Collectivism and totalit…
… 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 …
…the doors to a demeaning level of exploitation which, back in college they told me, feminism was supposed to cure. Sandra Fluke and the burdensome cost of contraceptives…for an army Georgetown University law student and liberal activist Sandra Fluke testifies on why religious institutions should pay for women's contraceptives. So far Ms. Fluke’s presentation has just been bizarre, but when we start to crunch the numbers, her testimony …
…d stagnation known as Occupy Wall Street look for something to hail as a rekindling of former Leftist movements, which, though they too failed, had “an energy” about them, rational witnesses see the direct fruits of corrosive Liberal policies long poisoning the American body politic. Present among the unwashed and infrequently toileted denizens of the mob is the spoiled whining born of decades of entitlements, the dense illogic produced by a fail…
