State of the Union a Real Bell-Ringer as Liberals Prove Rove Right

The New Republic ran a fascinating story today. As you may recall, Karl Rove recently claimed that, “At the core, we are dealing with two parties that have fundamentally different views on national security... Republicans have a post-9/11 worldview and many Democrats have a pre-9/11 worldview.” New... Sign in to see full entry.

FISA Eavesdropping Hearings a Farce from the Start

Thanks to Senator Patrick Flakey Lahey for ensuring that the Senate hearings into the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act monitoring of telecommunications to known terrorist phone numbers beyond our borders will continue the proud tradition of the Alito hearings – specifically, a total and...

Fitzgerald Refuses to Turn Over Evidence of Plame Name Crime

Over at National Review Online, Byron York has raised a fascinating possibility. Patrick Fitzgerald, who was lauded by the Democrats as a top-notch, go-get-‘em, bring-‘em-back-alive prosecutor who would get to the bottom of the heinous crimes committed when Valerie Plame’s name was leaked to the...

Are Republicans Comparable to Nazis?

Yes, says NAACP chairman Julian Bond, in a speech at Fayetteville, North Carolina State University this past week. Gee, thanks, Julian. Nice to know that Republican efforts on behalf of civil rights in the 1960s, without which the great civil rights legislation would not have passed, are so fondly... Sign in to see full entry.

Bush Tricked Liberals Into Appearing to Oppose National Security?

There seems to be a new spin on how the President exposed liberals in Congress for what they are in his State of the Union Address (see Wednesday night’s post). To recap, he exposed their lack of commitment to national security, winning the war on terror, tax cuts, social security reform and other... Sign in to see full entry.

Should Conservative Christians Get Out of Politics?

Yes, says a very interesting essay by Peter Slevin at the Washington Post’s website. The author bases his case on the thinking of Episcopal priest and former Senator John Danforth (R-Missouri), who sees conservative Christians as being divisive and as the root cause of Danforth raises a number of...

Bush Didn’t Reach Out to Democrats, He Checkmated Them!

By the time the State of the Union Address was over last night, another 12-hour day of contributing to the booming economy had caught up with me and I was beat. I only had time for the four pithy observations in yesterday’s post before conking for the night. Not so today. After reflecting on the... Sign in to see full entry.

Alito Confirmed, Liberal Democrats Embarrassed Again

Two major humiliations for the liberal Democrats in 24 hours. First, Kennedy and Kerry lost their filibuster attempt by a whopping 72-25 cloiture vote. Then, their nemesis Samuel Alito is confirmed to the Supreme Court by a vote of 54 to 38. Life is sweet. It is also funny, thanks to the liberals’... Sign in to see full entry.

So Bob Woodruff’s Injury Makes the War Real to the Lamestreamers?

Honestly, that’s what was said by ABC president David Westin! The unfortunate injuries to recently appointed ABC anchorman Bob Woodruff and his cameraman “make the war real” to the lamestream news media. A serious injury to a news anchorman and a cameraman makes the war real to them? After three... Sign in to see full entry.

What Was the Real Problem with Democrats’ Conduct of the Alito Hearings?

As we all know, the attempt by Democrats on the Senate Judicial Committee to derail the nomination of Judge Samuel Alito was unsuccessful. No matter how they tried to distort the man’s character, no matter how obtuse they proved themselves to be concerning law and judicial ethics, no matter how... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

In the classic Star Trek episode, The Omega Glory, a primitive people called the Yangs is at war with the ruling government. As the episode progresses, the Yang war drums are heard in increasing volume in the distance until the Yangs finally invade the government city and defeat their oppressors. Their victory won, the Yang chieftain utters a resounding phrase, “That which was ours is ours again!” This blog is now a war drum. I add it to the growing chorus of drums beating in the hills around the city of Washington DC. I do not advocate a revolution of violence and war. But I am joining others in beating our war drums for a peaceful and sweeping revolution at the polls starting in November 2010. This revolution will restore conservatives to power, and that which was ours – liberty, prosperity, restrained government, the rule of law, and personal responsibility - shall be ours again.
