Since my initial post in the President's Speech thread has been deleted, I cannot go back and read it by the light of day to re-evaluate my words. However, to the best of my memory -- and intent at the time -- it was a political comment, about political policies and the political people who devise a...

Why Biscuit, what a lovely public posting. Which rule did I break now? The one against writing ill of Our Lady of Ginormous Hooves? The one against criticizing our "centrist, post-partisan" president who's going to lead us all into the promised land of NO MORE DISAGREEMENTS? The one agains...

The party of dissent, the party that Jane Fonda built, the party that claims to be the voice of the people, has officially shat itself because a lone voice accused the president of lying to the public -- something that according to the polls, most of the public agrees with. This is just too rich. I ...

It's interesting that the Dems have no problem with Nancy Pelosi calling middle class people with jobs "Astroturf" and "unAmerican", or meeting with illegal immigrants and encouraging them to continue to flout our laws; they have no problem with Barack Obama standing in the bully...

My ad hominem attacks on the first lady invalidate my arguments regarding health care? Please tell me which school of logic this comes from, 'cause all that symbology stuff I learned as an undergrad, combined with all that "identifying issues" stuff I learned later on, still leaves me scra...

Funny, Paddy, you could be writing how I feel about the current administration, lock, stock, and Self-avowed Communist Greenie. The only effort this administration has made to be bipartisan is to invite the opposition to sign on to their extremely partisan agenda. Tonight, Obama himself called those...

Three repsonses: 1. Obama started with obviously desirable goals that we all can identify with. It's a rhetorical device, nothing more, sucking in the rubes before he starts into the meat of the matter.

Question: what happens when you first ignore someone, then call them names? Do they become friendly and begin to support your views? Or does it seriously piss them the hell off? What happens when middle class voters around the country are first ignored, then misrepresented, then called "Astrotu...

At the very least, we can hope the voters will yank his chain like they did Clinton, taking away his congressional blank check and putting a few rational checks and balances on his headlong rush to European Socialism, Chicago style. I realize he won, but IMHO, when 46% of those who voted chose the o...
