It’s February 29. Wow. Only happens once every four years. Wow.
Okay, maybe not WOW - but Wow. It’s an extra day buried between March and February and resurrected every four years for the sole purpose of making our calendars neater because our years are longer than 365 days. Leap Year occurs every four years, except […]

There’s are a number of articles up at National Review Online. I don’t believe comments are open there right now but perhaps they will open up a post at some point for comments.

Yup.
It’s orange - in memory of the poor afflicted souls of Guantanamo….
This year’s Oscar ceremonies were the lowest rated in the history of that measurement. Hollywood hates America so much that it gave the best acting awards to foreign actors. (There’s a wonderful tongue-in-cheek joke in there somewhere.)
Hollywood wonders where its audience has gone. Perhaps […]

From the NY Times:
CINCINNATI, Ohio—A conservative radio talk show host who helped introduce Senator John McCain before a rally here Tuesday used Senator Barack Obama’s middle name, Hussein, three times, while disparaging him, prompting Mr. McCain to apologize and repudiate the comments afterward.
Bill Cunningham, who hosts “The Big Show” with Bill Cunningham, a local […]

Rasmussen polling indicates a continued trend toward republican recovery in head to head generic democrat vs. generic republican contests. Just two months ago democrats held a ten point lead, but that lead has diminished to four points, as republicans continue the trend to close the gap.
One of the reasons Republicans can be viewed as the […]

#10. You can trade an old 44 for a new 22.
#9. You can keep one gun at home and have another for when you’re on the road.
#8. If you admire a friend’s gun and tell him so, he will probably let you try it out a few times.
#7. Your […]

The Washington Post has an interesting Op-Ed by Robert Novak asking Who Will Tell Hillary?
Even before Sen. Barack Obama won his ninth straight contest against Sen. Hillary Clinton, in Wisconsin last Tuesday, wise old heads in the Democratic Party were asking this question: Who will tell her that it’s over, […]

We are self-reliant. We do not look to the government to cure our ills. Instead, we fix them ourselves. We respect the rule of law but don’t need the law to know how to act properly toward our fellow humans.
Because we are self-reliant we can deal with change, even if the changes create hardship. We […]

Those in the market for angry this week had a veritable Persian bazaar of choices. Feelings ranged from reeled-in-rage to replete disgust to the rankling of continued irritations.
In booth number one we had the silliest of bruhahas - in politics it is the silly season - when Michelle Obama revealed her disatisfaction with the […]

Much ado is being made over Obama’s recounting of a story told him by an unnamed Army Captain. It was a story of a platoon being sent to Afghanistan without being properly equipped and manned. Here is the key statement made in the story:
And as a consequence, they didn’t have enough ammunition; they didn’t have […]

If you ever wondered what the GOP thinks of conservatives and conservatism, this pretty much sums it up. Emphases mine:
GOP to Conservatives: Drop Dead
As with small children, many of the entrenched, beholden, or power-hungry hierarchy of the Republican party, simply wish conservatives could be seen, but never heard.
In a very telling headline, The Washington Times recently […]

Posted by Kathy on February 21st, 2008 in Patriotism
Patriotism? Can it really be defined two different ways - liberal and conservative? Is liberalism patriotic?
Americans are rankled at Michele Obama’s recent revelation about her national pride, but is it really a reflection of her patriotism? Liberals are defiant that such a conclusion could be drawn from that statement. Conservatives are dismayed that there is […]
