Why Take a Bite When You Can Try to Swallow the Whole Cake?

If they had played it cool, President Obama and his congressional teammates might be celebrating Democraticare’s passage with a ceremonial ice cream social right now.  But we’re lucky they’ve become insufferably extreme to the point that they think a self-immolating process like reconciliation sounds wise.  Call Nancy Pelosi and beg her to go for it: she’ll [...]

Republicans Aren’t Democrats…Duhh

Watching the circus that was President Obama’s health care “summit” on Thursday  highlighted many things for me, but one in particular:
Republicans are VERY different from Democrats.
I’ve spent months listening to people like Glenn Beck say there’s no difference between Republicans and Democrats. For awhile, I bought it and came to the point of wanting to [...]

The Narcissist-in-Chief

We must accept that a size-able portion of the left has decided that their ideological foes are all covert racists.  Frankly, it’s just a matter of time until Think Progress fabricates hateful, prejudiced quotes attributed to each and every registered Republican and/or conservative sympathizer.  But I nonetheless stubbornly maintain that we dislike Barack Obama because [...]

Women Just Like Me

I am an American woman: a wife, mother, a homeschooler, a worship leader, musician and blogger, looking to encourage other women who hold a deep passion for the restoration of our country.  As I watched Glenn Beck’s: A Mother’s Challenge: A 9.12 Report, I came face to face with woman who articulated the concerns I too [...]

Liberty’s cracked bell

By Gayle Plato
Blame Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh for the uppity folk packing the cafeteria last night, and you will miss the truth.  Moms pushing strollers, young veteran dads, grandparents with death panel protest wear: the halls are throbbing with a pistol-shot pulse. All missing Wipeout or Jon and Kate Plus 8; our Congressman is having [...]

The Firing Squad

By Nina Jones
Forget the Birthers, there is a new craze sweeping the journalistic arena. An arena, according to NBC News correspondent Chuck Todd, has been tainted by such filth as…”radio DJ[s].” Todd’s beef with the likes of Glenn Beck and his accusation of Obama’s racism against, “white people or the white culture,” expands beyond the [...]

A rose by any other name

By Paige Bennett

There was an article in the Examiner on the 21st of June about ACORN and their ‘new name.”

When I first started to write about this I thought well I do not know anything about ACORN. My second thought was – who does? And that is the way this organization wants it to be.

Ok, so what is an acorn? It is a small nut which once planted grows into a huge oak tree. This little nut is planted deep and is unseen by the human eye. The huge tree that grows is seen, but has many branches and some are obscured by other branches. This large tree drops nuts to the ground that are planted and the cycle continues.

Psychopolitics with Dr. Brian Russell

By Dr. Brian Russsell

Here’s the latest on the psychopolitical front:

1) A day after I said that Sen. John Ensign’s political career should be over (the married father of three recently announced that he had an extramarital affair with a campaign staffer), he resigned…sort of. He didn’t resign from the Senate, but he did resign his leadership post on the Senate Republicans’ Policy Committee. Personally, I’d like to see Ensign continue to follow in the footsteps of former senator John Edwards…and get out of office entirely (and what’s up with these John’s in the U.S. Senate?)

Use your common sense: a review of Glenn Beck’s comedy tour

By Lisa Farrar Wellman
On Thursday, June 4, my husband and I experienced Glenn Beck like we’ve never seen him before. It’s one thing to watch him on a regular TV. He jumps around. He screams. He cries now and then. He crams M&Ms into his mouth pretty much constantly. I’ve actually become accustomed to his [...]

Live like it’s September 12, 2001: be part of The 9/12 Project

By Lisa Farrar Wellman
I watch Glenn Beck pretty religiously. He’s hilarious, first of all. And he’s right. His dramatic antics are more than entertaining; they put into words and action, some of my frustrations. He’s the male version of me, living out loud all that I wish I could say and do to express my [...]
