Pelosi: Dean doing a great job broadening Democratic party base?

That's what Nancy Pelosi is claiming. When asked about Screamin' Howard's latest oratorical outrage, she replied: "I don't think that the statement that the governor made was a helpful statement, but I do think that he's doing a great job in broadening the base of those who are involved in the...

Don't count on Screamin' Howard for meaningful ideas

Screamin' Howard's speech to the Campaign for America's Future rally last week followed the standard hate speech template of the far left, with one radical exception. He actually offered serious ideas for what his party would do if they were in charge. This is a radical departure from the dreary... Sign in to see full entry.

Screamin' Howard isn't doing his job!

Screamin' Howard Dean is making news with his mouth. Nothing pleases him more than spouting the most ridiculous diatribes against Republicans. Okay, so he can say something besides "YEEEEEEAAWWWWHHH!" (although his ranting is just as meaningless as that inarticulate shriek that revealed to the world... Sign in to see full entry.

Is W. Mark Felt (a. k. a. Deep Throat) a hero, or not?

Felt, newly confessed and confirmed as the Deep Throat of Watergate fame, is being lauded as a hero. The praise goes to ridiculous lengths, even to claiming that his actions saved the country. But is he a hero, or not? Evidently it depends on how one defines heroism, and the qualities one associates... Sign in to see full entry.

Amnesty International proves itself to be hopelessly foolish

Irene Khan, Secretary General of Amnesty International, made news this weekend by delcaring Guantanamo Bay to be "the gulag of our time." With that statement in mind, read this story from the New York Times: May 30, 2005 In Rising Numbers, Lawyers Head for Guantánamo Bay By NEIL A. LEWIS WASHINGTON,... Sign in to see full entry.

Refuting a masterpiece of liberal spin: Had Kerry been elected . . .

I have been accused of spinning facts to suit my arguments. But anyone who wants to study fact-spinning needs to read this letter, published in the May 29 th edition of the Toledo Blade: “It's unfortunate The Blade didn't get into this Noe thing before the last presidential election. Likely we would... Sign in to see full entry.

Robert W. Service's poem for Memorial Day

Memorial Day - Just Another Day

JUST ANOTHER DAY Memorial Day, 2002 Just another spring day for barbeques and picnics, sports, travel, mowing the grass, doing the laundry, sales and shopping, taking off work lamenting how busy we’ve become, taking our liberty for granted and, if we happen to think of it, for flying our flag, for...

The Writer of Light has been blinkered!

(Thanks to reader damon leigh for that term for bamboozled, hoodwinked, fooled, decieved, etc.) A long ways down the pike in this blog, way back on April 4, under the title "Ohio state rep doesn't grasp idea of businesses profiting by selling goods?" I went off rather seriously on the attacks made... Sign in to see full entry.

I am ashamed to have voted for these two idiots!

Life is not good for Ohio Republicans. It's bad enough to have had several years of the ongoing ineptitude of our governor, Bob Taft. Now we have the antics of our two esteemed senators, Mike DeWine and George "Short Stuff" Voinovich. DeWine was one of the seven Republicans who decided to sell out... 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.
