Phil Hilton wrote a new post, I Guess I Hate Veterans, Too November 11, 2011 10:27 am

Republican Congressman Jeff Miller (Florida) has an opinion piece on FoxNews.com congratulating himself and the rest of Congress for passing the VOW to Hire Heroes Act. The act provides incentives for employers […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, Ron Paul’s Iowa Victories Mean Power November 1, 2011 6:37 am

I like Ron Paul but his views on national security are what keeps me from supporting him. It is naive to think that our enemies would simply leave us alone if we were to take a more isolationist approach. While […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, U.S. Moving Toward Adopting an Official Religion October 27, 2011 10:13 am

Despite the protections in the Constitution and the work of numerous interest groups to enforce the separation of church and state it would appear that the U.S. Government is on the verge of adopting and enforcing […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, Perry’s “Heighth of Hypocrisy” October 25, 2011 12:01 pm

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 […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, You Just Can’t Argue Against Communism October 25, 2011 7:56 am

LOL…communism doesn’t exist and will never truly exist in reality as it does on paper because it runs counter to basic human nature.

Phil Hilton commented on the post, One Term Too Many October 21, 2011 8:58 am

Excellent post. What makes me scream at my television whenever there is left-wing commentator talking about saving the jobs of teachers, police officers and first-responders is the lunacy of the choices offered. […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, Time to Go October 20, 2011 6:06 pm

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 […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, Leave My “Entitlements” Alone October 19, 2011 2:01 pm

I am a conservative and I do have a problem with entitlements. I do not, however, have a problem with anything you said. I do not view your husband’s veterans benefit as an entitlement so much as it is a […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, Cain’s Big Break October 19, 2011 10:46 am

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, […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, I Am the 99.99983 Percent! October 17, 2011 11:38 pm

The Occupy Wall Street crowd likes to claim that they are “the 99%,” making reference to those pesky millionaires and billionaires that have what they want. Well, I am not in the top 1% of earners in this […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, President Obama: Campaigning is Job 1 October 16, 2011 1:20 pm

Fred, what is amazing is that since the August earthquake the area has also dealt with a hurricane, multiple (some quite heavy) aftershocks, extremely bad storms, and a tornado touched down there the other day as […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, President Obama: Campaigning is Job 1 October 16, 2011 10:47 am

Anyone who follows my posts knows that I am a small government advocate. As such, I do not believe in FEMA as it exists today. This is not to say that I do not see a role for the Federal Government in disaster […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, Want Fiscal Conservatism? Vote Liberal October 15, 2011 4:16 pm

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. Keep trying Gabriel, eventually you’ll come up with something that might stick.

BTW, most of us conservatives would not choose […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, Rick Santorum’s Fatal Economic Flaw October 13, 2011 5:51 pm

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 […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, Christie’s Endorsement Disappointing Though Not Unexpected October 11, 2011 11:41 am

Chris Christie’s upcoming endorsement of Mitt Romney is not unexpected. As I stated in a previous post about Governor Christie his appeal was based on his authenticity and plainspoken manner. It was never based […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, Forget Carter: Obama is the New Teddy Roosevelt October 11, 2011 6:13 am

Keep dreaming Gabriel. I know you are trying to defend him as best you can so I will give you a pass, but there are no comparisons better than Jimmy Carter. Setting aside my different viewpoints on particular […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, Cain Isn’t Black Enough For Sharpton October 11, 2011 6:03 am

Great article. Personally, I believe that the Sharpton’s and Jackson’s in this country are racist against their own people as much as they are against white people. If I walked around discussing […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, Democrats Reveal Their True Colors October 11, 2011 5:52 am

Gabriel, I have seen the signs similar to those you discuss and I agree that there are probably large numbers of people with relevant arguments amongst the crowd but those people are a minority in what I have […]

Phil Hilton commented on the post, Liberalism: The Unachievable Utopia October 10, 2011 7:07 pm

It is a fundamental flaw and unfortunately the former Soviet Union is not an example that the younger generation can recall. Of course, this argument could go much deeper as well. Regardless of what any leftist […]

Phil Hilton wrote a new post, Democrats Reveal Their True Colors October 10, 2011 2:06 pm

Anyone who follows politics realizes that the Democratic Party has been suborned by the socialists on their extreme left. Little by little they have been showing their true colors: the deep disdain they have for […]
