Perry’s “Heighth of Hypocrisy”

Texas Governor Rick Perry recently attacked Herman Cain’s comments on abortion. Cain has shown that he has does have difficulties with articulating his view at times. There is a positive reason for this – he is not a typical politician that has a canned answer to any question based on focus groups and polling; however, it does create fodder for political rivals who generally believe in little more than winn Read More [...]

Time to Go

With a dozen more debates looming on the horizon it is time to narrow the field of potentials in the GOP primary. I will not lie. There are eight candidates that I would like to see drop out tomorrow, but I think a more realistic number is three: Michelle Bachmann. I started out as a fan of Congresswoman Bachmann. She has been an outspoken critic of Obamacare, Dodd-Frank, and other left-wing boondoggles. Read More [...]

Cain’s Big Break

Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 plan has come under attack from various directions. Many, including myself, appreciate the boldness of the plan and basic premise that good will come from discarding the current, complicated, and bought and paid for tax code. A simple plan will save money for individuals and companies since resources will not be wasted in complying with the plan and it will save money for the government be Read More [...]

Rick Santorum’s Fatal Economic Flaw

Rick Santorum’s economic plan seems to be centered on getting manufacturing jobs back from overseas by making us more competitive. This is a fatal flaw in his economic plan and the primary reason why I do not support him. It shows one of two things, either Mr. Santorum does not understand the realities of economics or he will be willing to further manipulate the markets to bring those jobs back. Manipulating Read More [...]

The Poor Little Rich Boys of the GOP

I’m hoping that the title alone doesn’t give away too much of how I feel about two of the seventy-five GOP contenders currently in the 2012 Presidential race. Ok, so seventy-five is an exaggeration. At last count I think there are but nine or ten. Of those my least two favorite are Huntsman and Romney. Once-removed third cousins, the billionaire politicians are just a little bit too pretty boy for my liking. Wh Read More [...]

The Case for Herman Cain

Herman Cain is surging in the polls despite the best efforts of media pundits and the Republican establishment to dismiss his chances to become the Republican nominee. Even Bill O’Reilly, who is arguably successful at managing some objectivity despite his largely conservative view of the world, still dismisses Cain primarily on the basis of Cain’s inexperience. Unfortunately, these pundits and even Mr. O’ Read More [...]

Sarah Palin took a conscious decision to stay out of the elections!

The fateful day Barrack Obama won the presidential elections, defeating rival John McCain, it was speculated by the critics as well as voters that Sarah Palin will be competing Obama in the 2012 general elections. The reason was mainly because of her active participation in the McCain campaign. She had been instrumental in giving a new momentum to the entire Republican Party. Palin was one such Conservative who Read More [...]

Perry hits $17 million mark in raising funds

Rick Perry has strengthened his position as the Presidential candidate by raising funds worthily $17 million in the third quarter. The Governor of Texas has crossed all his rivals in collecting funds in a period of just 49 days, since he entered the race in August. The Perry Campaign, reported on Drudge Report on Wednesday, propagated to have collected $15 million before 30th September. He received his donations f Read More [...]

An Open Letter to Mr. Freeman & Mr. Jackson

Dear sirs, Before I begin, I would like to say that I truly love your work. Both of you are among my favorite actors. I am confident whenever I see either of your names on a film that there is a strong possibility that I will enjoy the movie. Please keep up the great work! That being said, I am immensely disappointed at the recent comments that both of you have made regarding the Tea Party. In my view, thes Read More [...]

The Appeal of Chris Christie: Authenticity

I have spent months screaming at the TV as media pundits and other blowhards have tried to fathom the appeal of Chris Christie. Many ascribe it to the entertainment value of his “bluntness” or his courage in taking on the teacher’s union. While there is certainly some truth in that, Christie’s appeal stems from something far more basic: when he says something, we believe that he actually believes wha Read More [...]
