    Messiahs don’t get grace periods

    Published February 17th, 2009

    At least, not when the messiah is named President Barack Obama. Repeatedly I have posted here that Obama is not the liberal political messiah, he is simply another politician. The “devoted” leftists might label me a hater, but that is not the case - I voted for Obama in the primaries, I voted for Obama […]

    Good but not good enough

    Published January 23rd, 2009

    I posted recently on how excited I was to hear President Obama refer positively to non-believers in his Inaugural Address. And it’s true, that one comment was worth a great deal to me. However, that does not negate the overwhelming presence of religion and god worship in general during the Inauguration. And there really was […]

    I Count!

    Published January 21st, 2009

    I love American Political Speeches. I do believe it’s difficult to judge them right away though - most of the great ones are great because of what followed. Of late, many political speeches have become exercises in eloquently saying nothing at all, which is unfortunate. Barack Obama’s Inaugural Address was not one of those, but […]

    President Barack Obama’s Inaugural Address

    Published January 20th, 2009

    My fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors.  I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.
    Forty-four Americans have now taken the […]

    Happy Inauguration Day

    Published January 19th, 2009

    Enjoy everyone. Our long national nightmare is over. And for once, I mean it.

    Warrin’ over Warren

    Published December 19th, 2008

    So Barack Obama has chosen Saddleback Church pastor Rick Warren to deliver the Inaugural Invocation. Almost immediately cries of protest went up among some of Obama’s most fervent suporters in some of the most Pro-Obama areas of the country. I’ve been saying this all along - Obama is not a radical political messiah, he’s just […]

    Hope, Change - or More of the Same

    Published November 26th, 2008

    Barack Obama has one and millions of lefties seem to think that its the second coming, that Big O is going to lead us all into a future Democrat utopia. OK, maybe not that bad - but close. Much of the progressive wing of the Dem party (and I consider myself to be pretty much […]

    Liberal Mandate Follow-up

    Published November 7th, 2008

    Sometimes you come across something that is far better thought out and better researched than your own opinions. I came across an article like that today in The New Republic. In it, John B. Judis argues that the current Democratic shift in America has been happening for some time and was simply interrupted by 9/11. […]

    Not My President

    Published October 29th, 2008

    For the past 8 years I have lived in a country led by a man I often vehemently disagreed with. I have insulted him in many ways, called him unintelligent, wondered if he was even paying attention to what was happening to this country. The more things he said and did, the less I liked […]

    Palin - Good Choice?

    Published August 29th, 2008

    Let’s look at it this way. Who is this quote from?
    “The age issue, I think, was more significant in my career than the [MINORITY] issue; your resume isn’t as fat as your opponent’s, that kind of thing,” [CANDIDATE X] told TIME last month. “I don’t have 30 years of political experience under my belt but […]
