We Win, They Lose
3 May 2007Nancy Pelosi and the dems have left the troops hanging so far and they’ve done so purely for political gain. Make a difference. Sign the petition.
Giuliani on Judges
5 April 2007Rudy Giuliani has given conservatives more ammunition. In an interview on CNN Giuliani expressed his view of “strict constructionist” judges. As you can see, Giuliani’s idea of strict constructionist doesn’t exactly match up with most conservatives. In his view, as with so many others on the court today, stare decisis trumps the Constitution! So bad [...]
Can a Republican Win in ’08?
2 April 2007I was reading a short piece about Fred Thompson on Slate.com today with the interesting title, The GOP’s Therapy Candidate: The Trouble With Fred Thompson. Starting with the claim that Thompson’s chief qualification is that he makes Republicans feel good, author John Dickerson makes the same mistakes Republicans in Congress have been making for some [...]
Dobson Damages Conservative Hopes
29 March 2007There was a time when I was a great supporter of James Dobson and Focus on the Family. He and his organization have done enormous good in the world and many people have been lead to Christ through their ministries. I still think Focus on the Family does some wonderful work but I’m starting to [...]
GOP Bloggers Straw Poll
27 March 2007The latest GOP Bloggers straw poll is out and you can vote. Currently, Fred Thompson has a commanding lead in the poll. Clearly, conservatives and Republicans are dissatisfied with the slate of candidates being offered. If Thompson runs, he can win. Vote in the poll and let your voice be heard.
A Glimmer of Hope
26 March 2007The midterm elections in November left many conservatives disappointed. The reaction of Republicans still in office turned disappointment into disillusionment for many of us. Now, with the current slate of Republican presidential candidates, we have been downright depressed. There hasn’t been a single candidate I could get excited about and most I couldn’t even hold [...]
Lindsey Graham Supports John McCain
19 March 2007Regular readers of this blog know that I am committed to the defeat of Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. After working for his election in 2000, I have been repeatedly disappointed in Graham. He campaigned as a conservative but he has shown himself to be anything but. I’ve come to believe that he has [...]
Conservative John McCain?
3 March 2007It’s been a little while since I wrote a purely political post and now it is time. I received an email today from Bobby Harrell, Speaker of the House in the South Carolina Legislature. He was enthusiastic over John McCain’s win in the Spartanburg straw poll on Thursday. It seems that as of Thursday even [...]
A Perfectly Dreadful Christian Dilemma
12 February 2007Neal Boortz went on a rant this morning about a woman in Charleston, SC. Brenda Kelly has six kids (four living with her) with three different fathers, works a $6.00/hour job, gets food stamps and Medicaid and complains that life is stacked against her. Read all the details in the Charleston Post and Courier. The [...]
The New Religious Right?
6 February 2007Opinion Journal today has a piece with the unappealing title Tithe and Spend Republicans. The ostensible subject of the piece is Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee who is a Baptist Pastor and self proclaimed conservative. Huckabee, however, seems to believe that the state should be the vehicle for carrying out Christian charity. From the article: So [...]
