Boy oh boy do the Obama camp and their press/media lapdogs have creativity. Today Obama spoke on patriotism seeming to want to define it to his own purposes. Also, resisting imaginary attacks on his own patriotism. Patriotism can be "the last refuge of scoundrels" but real patriotism ...

I'm voting for Bob Barr, but I know that either Sen. Obama or Sen. McCain will win. In that vein, my thoughts on his running mate:
Obama will put Virginia in play. Northern Va. is almost a Yankee state-within-a-state, with ever-expanding federal government jobs luring people there. The presence of Sen. ...

It's hard to believe in 'natural selection' when the product of 10 generations of American jurisprudence is a Chief Justice of the Supreme Court who quotes Bob Dylan in a Court opinion. Granted, it's better than Breyer citing South African law as precedent, and Roberts is miles ahead of ...

No, in my opinion. Why? Seven of nine Supremes are Republican appointees. They range from the generally reliable Scalia to his rubber stamp Thomas to the worthless Souter. Granted, the Dems haven't had a good pick since at least Whizzer White in 1961. But a McCain Administration, facing 55+ Democrats ...

Tonight Bill O'Statist outdid himself with his media-hyping "outrage" about the price of gasoline. His ranting in his "Talking Points" demonstrates willful ignorance of economics and capitalism. If not his ignorance, worse, a considered use of the ignorance of some audience members to fan artificial outrage and waste ...

A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country.
Well, there's a very simple answer.
Nobody bothered to check the oil.
We just didn't know we were getting low.
The reason for that is purely geographical.
Our OIL is located in

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Obama and his bid to be our President.
The old rancher ...

It doesn't matter what Obama was or how he was raised. Only the ignorant and narrow would think so.
