Can Conservatives Work Together to ‘Kill the Wolf’?

October 27th, 2009 · 1 Comment

I’m often asked how conservatives attracted to the Tea Party Movement and to anti-socialism rallies can work together to take back control of the country from the liberals now in charge.  I respond by recounting much of what I explained 18 days ago in my post, Think Twice Before Backing Third-Party Candidates.  In short, I [...]

October 4th, 2009 · 5 Comments

[Editor's Note: In a post published Oct. 24, 2008, I described what Halloween 2009 would be like for American children if Barack Obama became the nation's 44th president.  In light of the fact that the community organizer from Illinois went on to win the election, I've decided to republish an updated version of that post [...]
