Reagan's Economic Recovery Worked

February 7, 2009

I've grown weary of President Obama referring to the GOP's "failed theories." It's time for a history lesson from the one actual Conservative to inhabit the White House in my lifetime, Ronald Reagan. (FYI: 'Republican' does not equal "Conservative." Not in my book. For example, I considered Dubya to be an economic liberal. Party designation [...]

Hopey McChangerson Wins The Democratic Nomination !!!

June 4, 2008

Congratulations to Barack Hussein Obama (D-IL) for capturing the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination. He deserves it, since he did get the second most votes among all the Democratic contenders, and also due to his vast governmental, economic, management, leadership, and military experience and knowledge [assuming "vast" means "imaginary"]. During last night's inspirational victory speech, Obama [...]

The First Principle Of Conservatism

June 1, 2008

There's been a lot of debate among those on the Right about where Conservatism went wrong (even though it's pretty obvious). I'm going to abdicate my soapbox today in order to print something from Ed Morrissey of hotair.com.
