View Article  Who Ordered the Conservative "Hit" on Lindsey?
SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE
Quin Hillyer wrote one of the nastiest hit pieces I’ve seen to date against Lindsey.    Naturally he is channeling Michelle Malkin who has this pathological hatred of Lindsey.  I think it’s because she dislikes anything Hispanic and Lindsey is not exactly a bigot, and sorta implied that she and her precious little friends are.   I guess since she is promoting Buddy Witherspoon, we all know who is handling her leash – the John Tanton crowed.  She’s also part of what I call the Dump Lindsey Movement.  It’s all part of certain non-Republican ...   more »
View Article  Dear Barack Obama: The World Does Not Revolve Around You!
OBAMA IN ORBIT!

“…I understand when you're running for office
you sometimes think the world revolves around you --
that is not always true and it is not true in this case….’
Dana Parino

I keep promising myself I am going to leave it alone.  I try to keep from writing about Barack Obama.  I really do.  I swear.  Durn, what does the little twitty Obamassiah do but go and give me more you know what to write about. Dang blast it all!  

I’ve tried to detail the Battle at the Kennesit as best I can.  As a historian ...   more »
View Article  Mark Levin Betrays the GOP
CONSERVATIVE NOT REPUBLICAN
For months I've been telling you that there are certain conservatives who are no more Republican than Barack Obama is.  Mark Levin just proved me correct.  This is the WORST piece of you know what I've ever heard.  This needs to end - now.  Right now I am absolutely furious.  I don't know when I have been so angry.  We are dealing with people who are so warped that they do not comprehend they have destroyed the "brand" they once embraced.  Maybe Mark Levin needs to go back and read the Contract with America.  Not once in ...   more »

CONGRATS TO JOHN STEPHENSON OF STOP THE ACLU!
 Reagan Dailene Stephenson was born on May 12, 2008. She weighed 8 lbs and 4 ounces. She is 21 inches long.

There will be no Thursday Thirteen this week.  I’m heading to Las Cruces with the parents tomorrow.  My mother has two different appointments. With luck we can do something about her toes.  When she was given a shot to help revive her after hear heart failure, it damaged the nerves in one leg.  She has a miserable time with the toes on her right foot curling. It ...   more »
View Article  John McCain's "Evil" Sell-Out on Global Warming?
 IS HE JUST PLAIN SMART?
(or)
ARE CONSERVATIVES BETRAYING MCCAIN?

John McCain betrayed conservatives yesterday when he caved to the dastardly theology of "Global Warming".  Or did he?  He addressed the problems of global climate change, which even the most conservative of thinkers acknowledges is occurring.    Anyone who follows science news knows something is happening out there.  Frankly, I go with the theory that humans aren't important enough in the great scheme of things to completely disrupt the planet unless they blow it up with a bunch of nukes.  I don't see a Death Star anywhere, so until the Grand ...   more »
View Article  Mexico's Drug Wars Threaten US Border
IT'S THE DRUGS NOT THE ILLEGALS

The Juarez style "narco-crimes" are now invading Tucson in the "narco" community. This is going to become more and more the norm all along the border as Mexico's narco-war invades the US.  It makes a person wonder why the House Democrats want to cut anti-drug aid to Mexico just when the nation needs it the most!  Fortunately, we have a GOP Presidential nominee who "Gets it".
"...Until now, Republicans and Democrats had tried to make as little noise as possible about the Bush administration's Mérida Initiative, a request for $500 million to help Mexico ...   more »
View Article  How “Conservatives” Are Destroying the GOP – Part: Whatever
THE CONSERVATIVE CANARD
“…"Forty to fifty percent of the conservative leaders that I talk to at the national and state level either want the Republican to lose in November, or are ambivalent about it." Since the beginning of the movement, "We took the long range view. We didn't put all our eggs in any one election. We said that this isn't a sprint, it's a marathon." Viguerie said that he's telling his conservative friends not "to fear defeat." After all, GOP loses in 1964, 1974, 1976 and 1992 "cleaned out a lot of dead wood" from the Republican Party. ...   more »

SATURDAY, MAY 10

Twenty-three years ago last night I was in Atlanta slobbering over Sherrill Milnes as he did Simon Boccanegra with the Met.  They ended their annual tours a few years later, but I sure did hear some great music while they were in town.  My mother and I would stay at the Colony Square Hotel, get a suite.  My aunt would fly up from Palm Beach and my mother's best friend would also drive in for the week.  We would do 6 nights of intensive opera, good stuff, too. The thing I remember about that specific week was ...   more »
View Article  A Weekend Obama-O-Rama Reader

The RNC has created a new site designed to for people who want to ask Barack Obama a question.  It is a great idea. There are a heck of a lot of questions I would like to ask, such as:  When did you last use illegal substances?  But I am behaving myself. The Dems have a problem here.  Barack Obama is not a good candidate.  Roger Simon has put it so succinctly – Obama is not the man for our times. I think this puts Barack Obama into perspective. Should a person who cannot take criticism be ...   more »
View Article  Are There Any Decent Baritones in the World Today?
FRIDAY, MAY 9

NOTE:  I am having problems with Blog Harbor and posting.  I’ve been trying for about 2 hours to get something to “take”.

I’m listening to the Met (Live) do MacBeth, one of my favorites. Carlos Alverez, doing MacBeth sucks. He’s okay, but he’s no Sherrill Milnes.   Jimmy is incredible though.  I saw a performance there, years ago, where I was sitting front row, two seats to the right of Jimmy.  During the ghosts of Scotland past scene, they both became ‘tickled’.  It was so much fun watching them keep from smiling.  Something amusing happened with one of ...   more »
View Article  Exciting Development: The US Now Has 57 States!
DO THEY HAVE SUPER-DELEGATES
I think this is a job for the new RNC site Can We Ask! 

My father has made the connection between Barack Obama’s statement that there are 57 ( maybe 58) states and has tracked it back to the John Kerry Campaign of 2004.  He thinks Obama picked it up from Heinz 57!

I want to know when we added 7 new states. 
Where are they? 
What are their names? 
Have they had their primaries yet?
Did Barack Obama win their popular vote?
Did he pick up their Super-Delegates?
Is Barack Obama Dumber Than Dirt?

THE POWER OF PRAYER

You need to catch Carl Cameron’s interview with “Bud” Day.  Day was John McCain’s roommate while both were imprisoned during those horrible days in of the Vietnam War.  The interview leaves you in tears.

Day told Cameron:
“…“I took one look at him and my brain instantly said they dropped this guy off on me to claim that we let him die. He was just emaciated, very, very skinny, in this awful body cast.”

The colonel and John McCain were cell-mates in that tiny cell for two of their more than 5 yrs of torture ...   more »
View Article  Proving Hard Core Conservatives Wrong on Hispanics
THE HISPANIC REPUBLICAN VOTE
Rubin Navarrette has a PJ Media piece about the Mexican flag.  There is a double standard.  Anything Mexican is bad – evil, evidently.
“…The point is, a lot of Americans look at anyone who waves a Mexican flag as secretly planning to take over the Southwest and hand it to Mexico. But they don’t suggest that anyone waving the Israeli flag - or the Irish flag, or the Italian flag or whatever - has something similar up his sleeve. In those cases, most people are likely to think that the display is harmless and that all ...   more »

WEDNESDAY, MAY 7

Big Mac is taking Manhattan tonight to raise $7 million!  I HOPE! If he did not have my vote, he would with this!

Nothing is more annoying than either a paper cut or a head cold.  I have the latter.  I had no sleep at all last night.  I know one thing, I've proven that Air-Bourn really works.  I quit using it about a month ago.  This is the first cold /flu I've had in at least 2 years.  I've been using the product religiously during that time.

Sally Vee is pinch hitting tonight with a ...   more »
View Article  Is Your Anti-Hispanic Racism Showing?
THIS IS BIASED - THIS IS RACISM
I want to tell you about a story I heard today.  I am not telling who told it to me.  The man is Hispanic.  His family has been in New Mexico since the Conquistadors.  THEY ARE REPUBLICAN.  They have served in the military.  They vote.  They go to church, have jobs, and contribute to society.  Unfortunately, my friend’s sister cannot find her birth certificate.  She has lost her baptismal certificate.  The state of New Mexico declares she was never born.  She has a Social Security # and is receiving it.  She has her ...   more »

MICHELLE HATES MCCAIN
(or is it anything Hispanic)

Does this offend you?  If it does, I suggest you join your little friends at Stormfront, or go flush some of your hard earned money down the coffers of any one of the minutemen groups.  I also suggest you sit back, and breathe.  There....in, out.  Now sneeze. (wait, that's me).  Think back on all the tales you remember - of Ronald Reagan's campaign.  Think about all the GOP POTUS campaigns since then - and you might discover (if yo are willing to look) that EVERY Republican nominee for President of the ...   more »
View Article  Conservatives & Ron Paul Bot Cost GOP House Seat In LA Last Night
WAS JENKINS IMMIGRATION POSITION A LOSER?

Once again sore-headed LOOSER conservatives have triumphed.  Last night, in Louisiana, Republican turned Independent, Ashley Casey, cost the Republicans yet another house seat.  If her votes had gone to GOP candidate, Woody Jenkins, Jenkins would have had 50,459 votes to Democrat default winner, "Don" Cazayoux, who had an unofficial 49,702.  I don't know if the 757 vote difference would have been enough to avoid a run-off, but it is enough to determine these outcast conservatives can do serious damage to the GOP.

There's more: Randall T. Hayes, who received 402 votes is ...   more »
View Article  Stealth Conservatives, Not Republican, Against the GOP
THEY BETRAY THEIR “CONSERVATIVE” IDEALS
I think there is this false perception that I do not like conservatives, and have something against them.  In a way that is true.  I am conservative.  The only change I’ve been through in about 20 years of political evolution is the fact that I am now against the death penalty simply because I am so staunchly pro-life.  It is rather ludicrous to be against abortion, but yet want to put criminals to death.  It just doesn’t work.  Other than that, I am as conservative (maybe a little more) as I was when Reagan was ...   more »

THE 'TRUE' CONSERVATIVE AGENDA
From Border Fire Report (for what it’s worth)

I keep telling you there are many conservatives who are not Republican.  These are the individuals who have been doing all the agitating – and we’re not talking Ron Paul Bots.  There is a division in the conservative ranks between libertarians, Constitution, and the new conservative party.  The problem is these are the yahoos who basically cost the GOP the majority in the House and Senate in 2006.  If we aren't careful and marginalize them, this will happen, once again, and could cost John McCain the election.  They ...   more »

HOW BAD ARE THINGS?
Once again the voices of doom are declaring the GOP dead and buried.  According to the most recent WSJ poll, evidently the GOP isn’t well favored by voters this year – or are they?    The eternals are here.  This is a poll for Registered Voters and not Likely Voters.

Cindy McCain is not being treated decently by the liberal media, I think.  So what if she is rich.  John Kerry’s wife was worth a fortune and the liberal press ignored it. This woman, worthy of being a First Lady, is being treated horribly by liberal ...   more »

I’m not a fan of Judicial Watch.  I think it is a crock.  As if to prove my point, that my theory that certain conservatives are going to do all they can to ruin the man, Judicial Watch  pops up and files a FEC Complaint against John McCain.
“…“Recent news reports suggest that Sen. John McCain and John McCain for President may have accepted an in-kind contribution from foreign nationals Lord Rothschild OM GBE and the Hon. Nathaniel Rothschild of Great Britain in contravention of federal election laws,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton wrote ...   more »

MALKIN’S HATRED OF JOHN MCCAIN

When Aristotle defined hubris, he may have been thinking of Michelle Malkin.
"...Aristotle defined hubris as follows: to cause shame to the victim, not in order that anything may happen to you, nor because anything has happened to you, but merely for your own gratification. Hubris is not the requital of past injuries; this is revenge. As for the pleasure in hubris, its cause is this: men think that by ill-treating others they make their own superiority the greater...."

Why does Michelle Malkin hate John McCain so much?  We know she supports his military ...   more »

NARCISSISTS AREN’T JUST DEM OR GOP
One of the great third party narcissists, Chuck Baldwin, pulled off something of a coup this weekend and is now the Constitution Party’s nominee for POTUS. This is excellent news for John McCain because it is the very worst thing that could happen to Bob Barr’s proposed Libertarian Ego Fest. This could be the best of all possible solutions to the whole "Third Party" threat of any of these yahoos.  These twerps are going to cancel one another's votes. They are vying for the same voter - the chip-on-the-shoulder, sore-head, dis-functional, hate-everything-different voter.  ...   more »

SUNDAY, APRIL 27

There are days when I can find nothing to write about.  This is not one of those days.  I emailed Sally Vee a little while ago and mentioned I just did not know where to start.  I thought about doing another Obama-O-Rama, but I realize I have one more day to go in my self-enforced Obama boycott.  Race 42008 has picked upon the fact that he may do the federal financing for the general election – you read it here a week ago!  But, I’m still on the Obama-O-Rama Wagon.  But, not to worry, we have (drum-roll ...   more »
