November 5th, 2008 · 4 Comments

In my ‘Tuesday Evening Quarterback’ post yesterday, I shared my belief that American conservatives, perhaps, would have preferred someone more like Ronald Reagan to be their team’s starting quarterback (i.e., presidential nominee) and mentioned Sen.

Thanks for Flushing Obama!

November 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment

Help spread the word!  The 2008 presidential election takes place Tuesday, Nov. 4.  Americans who love freedom and still believe in The American Dream must vote for John McCain.  The alternative?  Well, it’s equivalent to flushing more than two centuries of greatness down the toilet.

October 28th, 2008 · 5 Comments

October 25th, 2008 · No Comments

Just before noon today, Fred Thompson called to invite my wife to participate in the so-called “Million-Woman Townhall Meeting,” the largest tele-townhall meeting ever held.  Since my wife wasn’t home, I opted — despite being of the opposite gender — to listen in and heard several important topics discussed.
