Kent Greenough is running against Monty Lankford in the Tn 4th Congressional District Republican Primary. Kent is a Marine Veteran as is his wife and his daughter is a Naval Veteran. Monty is not a Veteran so maybe these words he has on his website issues page don’t mean anything to him. […]

The Fairness Doctrine
June 27th, 2008 · No Comments
It sounds like something we should support. After all, who could be against “Fairness?”
But the surface appeal of The Fairness Doctrine has all of the rigor of a soap bubble and collapses under the slightest scrutiny.
Two powerful criticisms illustrate why The Fairness Doctrine is a bad idea.
It has a chilling effect on free speech. First […]

Shilling Against Drilling - Obama’s Flawed Energy Plan
June 26th, 2008 · No Comments
In his first real chance to speak to an issue with seriousness and substance, Democratic Presidential nominee Barack Obama demonstrated the truth of the charge leveled against him that he is all flash and no bang. The Right has known this from the beginning and the Left has feared it might be true for […]

Abomination in America-No Pun Intended
June 25th, 2008 · No Comments
This is a post of a traditional, Calvinistic Christian’s view of the presidential candidate Barack Obama. It is the most religious of my postings. Here is an excerpt:
We are seeing the direct result of idolatry in America- an outright idolater is running for president, and may likely win the office. However, America has had so […]

Obama and the Social Security Privatization Lie
June 19th, 2008 · No Comments
Few things illustrate Democrat’s penchant for preying on people’s fears better than Social Security. Proposing changes to Social Security produces hysteria from any Democrat near a microphone. Barack Obama is no different as evidenced by his comments earlier this week.
Speaking to a crowd of retirees in Ohio,
Obama … criticized McCain for being open […]

Political foolishness - It’s a nomination, not a coronation
June 4th, 2008 · No Comments
Hillary has won several state primaries. Barack has won several state primaries. When they win, they make victory speeches. When they lose, they make concession speeches.
Barack will not “win” the nomination until a majority of the delegates vote for him at the Democratic convention. THEN, he can claim victory. THEN, she should concede, endorse him, […]

Taking over the Tennessee House - a Historic Opportunity
June 3rd, 2008 · 3 Comments
First a history lesson: In the last 100 years, there was only one two-year period, from 1969-1971, when the Tennessee House had a Republican Speaker. It happened in 1969, following the mandated 1-man,1-vote redistricting of the Tennessee Legislature (which reduced the disproportionate strength of the rural counties). After the turbulent 1968 elections, the defection of […]

Tom Cole at the NRCC Blog is getting b*tch slapped to the point that he must be feeling like a Gumby about now. Michelle Malkin posted about Mr. Cole’s posting about “Republican Solutions and a Positive Agenda”. He thinks we need to “update our laws”!
WOT? I think Mr. Cole and the rest […]
