Is Obama Going Off The Rails of The Crazy-Train?

First we had the AIG fiasco which I'm hearing the Obama administration knew about, Then we had the bright idea of making our veterans pay out of their own pockets, for the medical treatment of battlefield injuries and wounds.  I think with that genius idea that Barack Obama has offically "Jumped The Shark".  That term comes from an episode of 'Happy Days' where '"The Fonz" jumps a shark on water skis, with his leather jacket on.  I think that the rest of this administration is going to be Carter Part II (I think Jimmy Carter is a decent man but he wasn't the greatest of presidents).  Even though polls are saying Obama would beat Palin by 20 points,  I think if he continues on this path, that she will win in a Reaganesque landslide.

On The AIG Fiasco

All the politicans on Capitol Hill are outraged at the $160 million dollars worth of bonuses AIG paid their executives.  I am outraged to.  The excuse given is that these bonuses in the execs contracts so they must be paid.  Well if that is the case, I would first suggest to these execs that if they want to keep their jobs, they should give the bonuses back.  If not then they should be told to look elsewhere for work. 

36th Anniversary of Roe vs Wade

Today our country marks the anniversary of The Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion on demand in the United States. Since that date over 40 million unborn boys and girls have been slaughtered in the name of 'choice'. We have just elected the most pro abortion president in our nation's history; One who has said he would sign the Freedom of Choice Act 'FOCA' that would negate any state restrictions on abortion, such as bans of partial-birth abortion, parental notification, etc.


Pray that President Obama's heart will be made tender to the silent cries of these boys and girls. He likes to draw comparisons to Lincoln, well the reason that we admire Lincoln so much today is because he helped free the slaves. Wouldn't it be a great legacy for President Obama to be known as the president who freed the unborn of the fear of death?

Reaction to Obama's Inagural Address

Whatever you think of his politics; one can not deny that President Obama is the best orator we have had as president since Reagan. I thought the address was delivered in magnificent fashion but I didn't hear any sound bites that will join "Ask not what your country can do for you..." or "With malice toward none...". I did think the ending was the strongest part of the speech. Now, if speech making was the only component to a successful presidency Obama would be in good shape, Lets see how he governs.

Today Barack Obama becomes our nation's 44th president. As a conservative, I differ with our new president on several important issues such as abortion, the war in Iraq, bailoutpalooza, etc, etc. Having said that though, this is a day that we will be telling our grandchildren about. The day that the first African American president was sworn in. I wish President Obama well, and hope that if he doesn't see the light, he will in the words of Ronald Reagan, feel the heat. After his inagrual address I will post my reaction.

Oh Please!

I just read that Rod Blagojevich said he was hired to fight for the people of Illinois and that's what he's doing.

Oh Please!

The fact is this is a man who allegedly tried to sell President-Elect Obama's Senate seat. He is at 7% popularity, and the state is at a standstill awaiting whether he will be impeached or not. Richard Nixon was a fighter too but when he saw that his impeachment trial would impede U.S. foreign policy and bring the nation to a standstill, he did the honorable thing and resigned.

I call on you Governor to do the same.

Why Caroline Kennedy doesn't belong in The Senate

I have nothing personal against Caroline Kennedy; This is a woman who has lived in the spotlight her entire life, Who had her father murdered when she was 6 and her uncle when she was 11. She, along with her late brother, have seemed to have turned out alot better then some of their other Kennedy cousins who have been in the headlines in recent years. However, having a famous last name, and being the child of a beloved president, are not qualifications to be appointed to the U.S. Senate. If Ms Kennedy wishes to be a senator she is welcomed to run for the office in 2010 and then if the people believe she is well qualified and vote her in, I will have no qualms about it. Her uncle, Ted Kennedy was elected in 1962 on the basis of his last name but he was the choice of the people of his state; not of a single man.

I would advise Governor Patterson to pick someone who has held elected office and has proven they would be able to rise up to the job. Being a Republican I know I will not like the politics of anyone he chooses, but no one would argue that someone like Andrew Cuomo, who has held both appointed, and elected office is well qualified for the U.S. Senate. Personally, I would like him to appoint Mario Cuomo to serve out the remainer of Hillary Clinton's term, and then have a free for all in 2010.

As for the comparisons between Caroline Kennedy and Sarah Palin; I see no simularities at all, except they are both women. Governor Palin has held a number of elected offices. Kennedy has never won any elected office.
