REFLECTIONS

All and all then it is difficult to believe that Sen Obama did not and does not still – regardless of what he now claims in his speeches - share at least some of the views expressed by  his mentor in those sermons now in question.  Read Full Article

B. Obama gave a speech today. I shall touch on only one line. A line which speaks volumes of his misunderstandings of America. We heard that a “segregation was the law of the land” at one time. When? Mr. Obama, have you read Robert Caro’s ‘Master of the Senate?’ It is about L.B. Johnson’s attempt [...]

Heh, heh… This afternoon, I experienced a real-life “Obama defense” episode.  Thought I would share. We were at the lunch table.  The topic turned towards the esteemed “Reverend” Jeremiah Wright.  Two of us went bonkers trying to explain the whole issue to another as-yet-uniformed individual.  Then, from the other end of the table, a liberal [...]

If Florida and Michigan get to re-do their presidential primaries then why shouldn’t all the States do the same whenever selected groups object to voters’ choice? It is chaos this year among the Democrats. Their chaos is fuel for change wearing the mask of reform. Will primary-chaos lead for a call of a national primary?

One of my favorite blogs, Little Green Footballs, tells me of the latest bald faced lies going on over at Daily Kos.  http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=29277&only&rss    There the only defense for the Reverend Jeremiah Wright is that everybody does it, including this leading question: “Have we not heard what Rabbis routinely say about Palestinians across the US? “ [...]

On WLW 700 out of Cincinnati, Ohio this morning (XM 173) it was heard: Gary Jeff Walker saying why he can’t support Obama, “he’s a socialist bordering on communist.”

A North Dakota soldier receives a medal for stopping a gunman in Las Vegas.  How many times do we have to demonstrate the best defense against the lone gunman is the well armed citizenry?    http://www.kqcd.com/News_Stories.asp?news=16643

Well another of my predictions has failed.  Dommina and Shabalin are not going to win the World Championship in Ice Dance; they have withdrawn due to injury.  Even the Russians haven’t figured out a way to cheat a victory in a contest they don’t enter.  This makes the US team the favorites to win.  The [...]

Victor Davis Hanson is always must read internet.  But his article on Gaza is even more brilliant and penetrating than his usual insight.  From Hanson that is saying a lot.  I particularly loved this comment: And what a world it is that enables Gaza! The Russians have fought a dirty war against Muslim separatists in Chechnya. [...]

Geraldine Ferrraro has said that Obama is only where he is because he is black.  Half the country agrees with her and the other half of the country is afraid of being called racist if they admit they agree with her.  But she is wrong.  Obama is a US Senator with only three years in [...]

Five Conservatives of the Dane County Town Hall converse through various Internet related communications last night. Although there were some problems their first attempt had shown it was possible to hold meetings off-site. The Five used a combination of text-messaging, instant messaging (aim, msn, gmail, and yahoo), and their private Yahoo! Group called ‘Madison Townhall’ [...]

Republicans in the New York legislature will impeach their Governor (fondly know as Client Number 9) if he doesn’t resign soon. Will Democrats ask Sen. J. McCain to call off his party in New York because ‘hounding’ a Democrat from public office for purely a private matter isn’t the politics McCain allows fellow Republicans to [...]

Wasn’t the Governor of New York State just padding his political-resume so that Mrs. Bill Clinton would take him as her running mate and friend to the first ‘gentleman?’

The BBC tells the story of a British soldier under fire rescuing a fallen comrade.  Like all the heroes whose story I have read, he denies he is one:  I don’t see myself as a hero. I was just saving my mate – doing him a favour – nothing special in my eyes. Nothing special in [...]

Arnold Schwarzenegger proves there is one conservative bone left in his body and denounces the anti-homeschool ruling.   He has for the last few years acted as if he never heard of Milton Friedman so I was quite surprised to see him remember his libertarian roots.  Mr. THPrincess figures that Maria Shriver must be out of town.   “This outrageous [...]

Christopher Hitchens also plays Nostradamus and I am quite afraid his reasoning, in this one case, is far better than mine.  The ruthless, undiminished ambition of Hilary Clinton is something to never underestimate, never turn your back on and for God’s sake never to be laughed at.  Are you listening Limbaugh?  This is Hitchens on [...]

Liberals are irony proof.  We all know that we sleep safe in our beds because US Marines are ready to kill in our defense.  Liberals denounce this very concept, until they are endangered.  That’s when liberals decide that Marines are exactly what they need; as in the case of these Code Pink demonstrators who knew [...]
