I have watched many presidential campaigns since I was born. The first one was Ike vs Adlai in 1952. I was seven and I remember Stevenson’s hole-in-shoe picture and the “I Like Ike” buttons, and that my mother was for Adlai Stevenson, and my father, Ike. Perhaps it was this internal and constant examination of issues from two opposite sides that contributed to making me think as I do today. My father and mother drove to the polls every four years and always voted for opposite candidates. They never came to an agreement.
Now 60 years later I have spent most of my adult life studying this kind of confrontation. Continue Reading »
The volatility of our national election process – all the reins of which are in the hand of God – was on display once again at Thursday night’s CNN Debate. Newt Gingrich, before any other candidate had a chance to speak, won South Carolina in the first 48 seconds of that debate, by excoriating left-wing CNN propagandist John King about his use of the ABC hit-piece interview with Newt’s former (2nd) wife, broadcast earlier the same day.
By Friday, he had surpassed Romney’s formerly strong lead. Saturday he won a 13 point plurality. It was testimony to a spectacularly well-graven image.
Ironically, Newt has just done to the South Carolina voters what he had previously done to Jackie Battley and Marianne Ginther and Callista Bisek. And now, will the Republican Party be Newt’s fourth wife?

Mark Twain once remarked, “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure, that just ain’t so.”
Twain’s comment speaks eloquently to the prevailing understanding of the Constitution, especially (and surprisingly), among the ranks of the self-proclaimed “small government” Tea Party Republicans.
When asked what section of the Constitution authorized Obamacare, Continue Reading »
On January 10th, Project Veritas reporters walked into New Hampshire Polling Locations during the Presidential Primaries, saying dead people’s names. We stated the name of a dead person we got from the NH obituaries. The names of the deceased were both Registered Republican and Democrats And in almost every case, saying a dead person’s name, we were handed a ballot to cast a vote. We used no misrepresentation and no false pretenses. in fact, in almost every case, we insisted we show ID and they insisted that we vote without showing ID.
Yesterday the Republican Contest for the 2012 Presidential nomination kicked off with the first official event. The Iowa Caucuses ended in a three-way tie.
But what other foreign policy expert agrees with you?
Ron Paul:
The American people… and they’re experts and they have to pay for it and they have to die for it. 75% of the American people are saying ‘Come home, come home’.
The following was brought to my attention by real estate broker, market analyst, one-time State Legislative candidate and Campaign for Liberty Executive Director, Alex Rion.
One of the greatest disappointements of the 21st Century, so far, has been the demise of Fox News as an objective major news network. Fox emerged as the first major network that was not blatantly Far-Left in outlook and coverage in the ’90s, and became the top rated TV news network by 2004.
Simply being somewhat neutral aroused charges on the left that they were “conservative.” Not hardly. Continue Reading »
Nicola Riley, the Utah doctor accused of botching an abortion in Maryland in 2010, has been charged with murder.
A Maryland circuit court indicted her and another doctor this week after… investigation by the Elkton Police Department at the American Women’s Services clinic found a chest freezer with dozens of late-term fetuses and fetal parts. Clinic documents show fetuses at the clinic were aborted at 28, 33, 35 and 36 weeks of gestation, by multiple doctors, including Riley.
I was at the corner grocery store buying some early potatoes… I noticed a small boy, delicate of bone and feature, ragged but clean, hungrily appraising a basket of freshly picked green peas.
I paid for my potatoes but was also drawn to the display of fresh green peas. I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes.
Pondering the peas, I couldn’t help overhearing the conversation between Mr. Miller (the store owner) and the ragged boy next to me.

Your Presidential campaign has drawn the enthusiastic support of an imposing collection of Neo-Nazis, White Supremacists, Holocaust Deniers, 9/11 “Truthers” and other paranoid and discredited conspiracists.”
The terror gripping the Republican Party bosses at this moment has been described many times by The Reagan Wing. National publications are beginning to discuss those bosses’ worst nightmare.
. . .The notion that the Grand Old Party might actually base its politics on values, as opposd [sic] to pay-to-play deal-making, unsettles the Republican leaders who back only contenders who have been pre-approved by the Wall Street speculators, banksters and corporate CEOs who pay the party’s tab—and kindly pick up some of the bills for the Democrats, as well.
Republican Party bureaucrats are petrified of this man:
