Before the Dawn

Bruce Walker

America has the most Left of center president in its history, and Democrats have overwhelming majorities in both houses of Congress.  People have openly talked about whether the Republican Party can even survive. Its standard bearer in the last presidential election was profoundly uninspiring.  The energy shortage threatens our economic and national security well-being.  The economy, in general, is in a shamble and all the president promises America is a hard road ahead. Our enemies, particularly in Afghanistan, seem to be winning.  Europe is sullenly indifferent to America.  Yes, there was a brief tax revolt, and this did shake the Left up a bit, but it lasted all of one day.  Is there hope in this picture?

Politicians and Cows - They All Smell The Same

Thomas D. Segel

Harlingen, Texas, May 3, 2009: A Harris Poll that reports 77% of the population does not trust our politicians or political parties.  55% of the people don’t trust government and 62% of the folks don’t trust the reporting of the mainstream media.

'Bankrupt Who's Bankrupt?'

Robert R. Owens

Last year with tongue securely in cheek when I wrote about the Fed buying Treasury Bonds I tried using the absurd to make a point.  I explained this would be like issuing your own credit card, buying everything you want, paying for the credit card with your checking account, and filling the checking account with cash advances from the credit card.  I was just kidding.  I never thought this would actually happen.  It has.  When I wrote about the nationalization of GM and the financial system I was again trying to use absurdity to make a point.  It’s getting hard to be absurd in America today.

'Obama's First 100 Days Just Flu By, Didn't They?'

Jayme Evans

Barack Obama’s first 100 days just flu by, didn’t they? About the only thing to pass over the heads of Americans faster than the first three months of Obama’s first (and hopefully only) term was that Top-Secret, but apparently “routine” photo-op flight, where Air Force One, shadowed by F-16s, flew nearly nap-of-the-Earth and buzzed the tourists and office buildings in lower Manhattan.

The Pap Coming From AP Is Becoming Comical

Malcolm T. Hedges

The “journalists” at AP are perfect examples of our failed edukshun system.  Grammar and spelling are atrocious?  If AP has “editors” they are ignorant or skating.

The Right Needs to Play as Dirty as the Left

OffSite

It’s time to give them a taste of their own medicine - When I was in college, I studied Southern Long Fist Kung Fu for more than a year and my teacher told me something that I never forgot. He said that when you’re being attacked, the aggressor sets the rules and if you want to survive, you have to play by those rules. In other words, if your opponent is trying to cut your head off with a sword while you’re trying not to hurt him, chances are that you’re going to end up dead. This is a lesson that conservatives can and should apply to politics.

Obama Wants to Control the Banks

OffSite

I must be naive. I really thought the administration would welcome the return of bank bailout money. Some $340 million in TARP cash flowed back this week from four small banks in Louisiana, New York, Indiana and California. This isn’t much when we routinely talk in trillions, but clearly that money has not been wasted or otherwise sunk down Wall Street’s black hole. So why no cheering as the cash comes back?

A Congress Devoid of Leadership

Guest: Thomas D. Segel

Harlingen, Texas, March 6, 2009:  To even the casual observer, it is easy to see the United States Congress has a leadership void of vast proportions.  It has become a body of elected officials where the unseeing are leading the blind and good decision-making or acceptance of responsibility is unknown.  This is a very sick body of people who are really in need of some serious help.

Old Myths Die Hard - Especially Overpopulation

Kevin Roeten

Many still believe in myths. The myth of overpopulation is popular, but many look at the final numbers without looking at the trends. Many refuse to look at the falling birthrates and fertility rates. Birth control, abortion, sterilization, and various contraception techniques have all dictated a declining population within a short period of time.
