REFLECTIONS

Gov. Romney has flat out said the Palestinians do not want peace.   Since every “peace” agreement has led to more slaughter by the Palestinians you would think this would be an obvious statement.  But even the Republicans in DC have been running from this basic bit of truth for decades. http://www.jpost.com/USPresidentialrace/Article.aspx?id=285410 It took a [...]

The mess that Obama is always whining about is as to nothing compared to the mess Romney will inherit, if we are lucky enough to get rid of Obama. Reagan came with a reputation.  A reputation based mostly on the media’s lies and spins.  Ironically the media’s fabrication of the trigger happy cowboy worked in [...]

I have ranted and raved against the “fiscal conservative, social liberal” model many, many times in this blog already.  But the point of that model is that everyone in the country claims to be fiscal conservatives.  And as I have explained again and again, that’s not true.  Everyone wants to claim to be responsible with [...]

Powerline has an excellent look at Gov. Romney’s tour through Isreal and his speech there.  http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2012/07/our-enduring-alliance.php   If there is anything purely about principle in American politics today it is Republican support of Israel.  Now I am both a Republican and Jewish; so I can tell you it is a very lonely description. No Republican [...]

It is probably pointless to imagine the California voters will wake up and defeat Feinstein this November.  But the point of this blog is to support conservatives whever we find them, even the wasteland of  Greece-West known as California. Elizabeh Emken is conservative, committed to ending the waste in DC.  She is running for Senate, [...]

As much as I was in 1988 for Vice-President Bush when he achieved the presumptive Republican nomination. Of course, his being President Reagan’s v-p was a great help; Bush’s election was assumed Reagan’s third term. In this year of 2012, the presumptive nominee could have been any Republican since the President Obama is as competent [...]

Libertarians are such stinking hypocrites.  They talk endlessly about the evils of big government, but when it comes down to elections they will fling themselves on the biggest government they can find, as long as it promises to protect them from the big, bad, social conservative.  Roger Simon over at PJ Media http://pjmedia.com/rogerlsimon/2012/02/09/the-santorum-surprise/2/  joins in the [...]

It isn’t half time, it’s the free skate.  Unfortunately in the short program of President Obama, the US fell on all three jump passes and a spin.  We are dead last going into the free skate. Which would be fine if we had a GOP nominee with a quad.  Gov. Perry’s job creation in the [...]

Over at National Review Online they printed up George Will’s comments on Herman Cain George Will on Cain: ‘He’s Sort of Strolling for President’ By NRO Staff Posted on October 16, 2011 6:41 P “We’re having a kind of Andy Warhol primary where everyone is leader for 15 minutes. And it’s Cain’s turn today. But it’s [...]

I hate people telling us that we must vote for the one who is the most “electable” candidate.  Because, when it comes to Republicans, “electable” is code for “most like a Democrat”.  They think that only a democrat, or one who is like a democrat can get elected.  I am TIRED of  actual conservative candidates being tossed [...]

So now it is Governor Chris Christie who is going to save us?    A bad temper does not a conservative make.   Indeed a true conservative is always a gentleman, as President Reagan demonstrated.  If Christie is in the race I am going to have start campaigning for Romney or anyone else who looks [...]

Surely you didn’t think I could pass up a pun like that. http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/278268/cain-wins-florida-straw-poll-katrina-trinko Herman Cain has won the Florida Straw Poll? It’s terrible to tease me like that. Hermain Cain has consistently been the most committed to conservative principles in the GOP Debates. I haven’t mentioned him because I have always assumed the GOP establishment [...]

Gov. Perry’s support of in-state tuition for illegal aliens is a mistake. But no one mistake will keep me from voting for someone. No what makes Gov. Perry unacceptable is his defense. He gave his reasons for his position and that was all he needed to do. But he had to add that anyone who [...]

  Perry is blowing these debates so badly he is handing the nomination to Romney.  Perry is doing so badly in these debates I don’t mind if Romney is the nominee; and I loathe the originator of ORomneycare.  NEXT!!!!!  Please please please please NEXT!!! You know who is a genius?  You know who is winning [...]

Liberals have to keep calling Gov. Palin stupid, because her brilliance is beyond them. She is a genius at telling middle America exactly what they want to hear. She hits every note perfectly to appeal to  ordinary working class America. This ad that has gone viral throughout the internet is the most brilliant bit of political [...]

43 Senate Republicans Oppose Reid Plan; Lacks Votes To Clear … – Zero Hedge After the Senate promptly voted down Boehner’s congressional plan, now it is the GOP’s turn to return the favor after a House vote on Reid’s bill is imminent at around 2:30 pm EDT, and will result in a… View or comment [...]

“The Republicans will end medicare as we know it” is the battle cry and from President Obama to the Union thugs at Townhalls we hear this every day.  This is not new, this is not different.  Medicare was passed in the first place to turn citizens into subjects dependent on government, same as that great [...]
