Never Waste a Crisis: How Obama Administration Created an Auto Crisis

Remember the sentiments expressed by Obama’s Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel?  He warned President Obama to never let a good crisis go to waste.  I think it’s fair to say that Obama is a good listener and has taken those words to heart.  Not only does he seize every opportunity to label each and every [...]

America’s Tea Party

My family drove from Texarkana, TX to the event, a little over 3 hours. We arrived promptly at 3PM lugging with us a full ice chest, blankets, chairs, and most importantly a shade tent. We were in for the long haul and felt more than honored to be there. By the time we arrived, there [...]

Day Old Infant Found in Shoebox

According to the New York Post, a newborn girl was found alive in a shoe box which was left at the entrance to an apartment building in Long Island. A breathing hold had been cut in the box for the baby and the umbilical cord had been tied with dental floss. Local authorities say that the baby girl, weighing 5-pounds, 7-ounces, is doing well. At the bottom of the article, the disclaimer states that police are asking for information regarding the parents of the child. My question is simple: Why? Are they going to go after the biological parents for abandonment? neglect? endangerment? All I can say is that I hope they never find out who her parents were.

The key word here is were. This baby was not murdered. Someone took the time to cut an air hold in the box, to tie off the umbilical cord so that she did not bleed to death, and placed her in a place where they had good reason to believe someone would find her and take her to safety. The mother obviously does not want to mother the child. But she made the CHOICE to still give her life. I do not blame the mother for doing what she did. I wouldn’t have made the same choice, but as a choice-preaching society, we must acknowledge that this mother made the right one. If she truly did not feel that she could care for her child, she should not be caring for her. This mother decided that she did not want to be a mother, so she placed her child in a public doorway where someone could get her to safety and she could eventually find new parents.

The truth about why some women hate Palin

By Natalie Nichols
Obviously there are many reasons for various women to dislike Sarah Palin.  She is a proud Conservative, she is a working mother, she is religious, and she is a Republican.  Those are all valid reasons for those with differing views not to like Palin.  But one look at the news on any [...]

Purposeful killing of the unborn is heralded as “choice,” while accidental death is criminal.

Originally posted by Natalie on her blog .
In this day and age, it is insane, at best to think that vast portions of our society believe that bringing a child into this world naturally-in a home full of love-should be a criminal act, worthy of felony prosecution should tragedies occur. On the other end of [...]

You had me at “…the honeymoon is over…”

By Natalie
Dear Mr. Steele,
I wrote you a letter quite some time ago. You never responded to my concerns and I was more than a little irritated. I felt that further indicated the disregard that our party has shown to its constituents, even though it is what I expected to happen. I had come to expect [...]

Open Letter to RNC Chairman, Michael Steele

Originally emailed to Michael Steele 4/02/09, and as expected, I have yet to even get an acknowledgement from Mr. Steele. Cross-posted here.
Dear Mr. Steele,
I just received your latest survey, which you called a crucial project, without the likes of which the RNC cannot create a plan. I must respectfully disagree. The RNC has a problem, and [...]

Is Euthanasia in the future after the collapse of Social Security and Medicare?

Originally posted by Natalie at 1conservativemomma.wordpress.com.
By all accounts, Medicare is bankrupt and Social Security isn’t far behind. We will continue to have an elderly population in need of these services, even if we can’t afford to keep the programs running. It is a simple fact of life that everyone ages. We start to notice that [...]

I hate to say this as I will surely be accused of being a troll, but the Republican party has become the political action wing for big corporations, right wing zealots, and deep pocketed fanatics. Fox News on the other hand is the media relations [...]
