Bravo!
Monday, September 29th, 2008
Nancy Pelosi, who is Tracy Flick without boundaries, intellect or shame, had a deal to bailout the Freddie & Fannie mess until she decided to blame Republicans. Republicans were never going to vote in large numbers for a government blank check (unless, of course, you view six of the last eight years of history... »

Before the Bailout
Friday, September 26th, 2008
Chris Dodd and Barney Frank need to resign in disgrace for their reality-blind protection of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the root cause of the current financial crisis. The fact that these two sub morons are allowed to walk free is a textbook definition of abuse of the public trust. As recently as two... »

Everything Dems Don’t Know About Gramm Leach Bliley
Friday, September 19th, 2008
The recent market turmoil has produced an astonishingly predictable wave of populism. Even McCain and Palin are blaming corporate greed and abuse of the public trust. (To be fair, corporations cannot fairly abuse the public trust as they are formed for the benefit of their own shareholders, not the public. Somewhere, Ayn Rand is... »

Voter Dynamics – Part II (Pro Choice/Pro Life)
Wednesday, September 17th, 2008
Apologies for the delay. I know I promised a post on why Pro Choice voters can vote for a Pro Life candidate, but other events have kept me busy. As I mentioned in my earlier post, there are really nine types of voters. As some people have noted, this is a spectrum, not a... »

Let’s Roll
Thursday, September 11th, 2008
Seven years ago this morning, America was awakened from its complacency by 19 little men on four planes armed with little more than small knives and a determination to kill innocent people. Through the heroism of a small band of heroes, only three of those planes met their targets. The names Todd Beamer, Mark... »

Lipstick on a Pig
Tuesday, September 9th, 2008
Senator Barack Obama raised eyebrows today when he said that the McCain-Palin campaign’s attempt to “reinvent themselves” as mavericks was “You know, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig.“ Many feel the freshman Senator was making a thinly veiled reference to Senator McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin. The McCain... »

Biden and Stem Cells
Tuesday, September 9th, 2008
There is, of course, an abundance of data to support the assertion that Joe Biden is an idiotic windbag. Today, there is more evidence in about what a shallow, manipulative politician he actually is. Today Joe Biden attacked “Republicans” for claiming to be advocates for those with special needs while not supporting stem cell... »

The Obama That Could Have Been
Sunday, September 7th, 2008
The Obama campaign, facing a slight and diminishing lead in the polls and an immensely popular Republican Vice Presidential nominee, has announced a list of things Obama “once considered” doing. The list follows Senator Obama’s assertion to George Stephanapoulous that he (Obama) had considered joining the military. Indeed, Senator Obama even went so far... »

Voter Dynamics – Part I
Thursday, September 4th, 2008
Until recently, an amazing statistic regarding presidential elections had held through almost 100 years: the tallest man (almost) always won. (The two recent exceptions were in the 70′s, both when Nixon defeated McGovern and Carter defeated Ford.) The chain was broken in the internet age of free-flowing ideas and the 24-hour media cycle when... »
