Palin Trying Trial and Error

Sarah Palin is like family to many conservatives, and not just because she would gladly bring a caribou casserole to your cousin’s graduation party.  More significantly, only those who sympathize with her are offering worthwhile criticism.  It’s like how you’d yell at your own sibling or child for misbehaving but would rightfully detonate if someone [...]

Maybe One Bubba Is Enough

Notorious right-wing reactionary Barack Obama didn’t deliver his State of the Union address in front of a rattlesnake flag, sign noting how tea’d he is, or doctored photo of himself as the Joker.  It would have been a nice touch as he momentarily faked empathy for those who have either turned on him or never [...]

What are the Tea Parties really about?

I have been pretty lucky. Since the first Tea Party back on February 27, 2009, I have been heavily involved in what has become a pretty big deal. But, what I remember most about the 300 people standing in a park right across from the White House that day was the feeling that I was [...]

Turns Out Brown Can Do Plenty for You

Once again, conservatives are confusing everyone.  The intolerant hillbillies who passed around moonshine jugs at Tea Parties/militia meet-and-greets are supposed to reject any candidate who doesn’t make Sean Hannity look like Bob Beckel.  But right-wing zealots apparently keep forgetting to intolerantly shove out those who don’t universally conform to their intolerant views.  Instead, they just [...]

Misdiagnosing the Constitution

Promoting the general welfare is entirely different than generally having most people on welfare.  The word decoding game is no fun, especially when big government geeks are twisting phrases to make it seem like their beliefs are justified.  Specifically, they wring curious meanings out of every single line in the Constitution, as the left’s interpretative [...]

One Year Down. And Only Three Left!

The milestones are flying by.  Thank goodness.  We’re approaching a quarter of a way through Barack Obama’s first and final term, and it’s only occasionally felt as if we were enduring eternity.  Conservatives have held up well since the president gave his first official platitude-stuffed oration to people who were ardently cheering for what will [...]

Evil Health Insurers Help Us While Making a Living

The dullest scoundrel in human history is still a scoundrel.  Harry Reid wouldn’t exactly serve as a worthwhile James Bond foil.  Still, he worked as hard as a sluggish bore could to ruin Christmas for all by stuffing through a health care bill hated by conservatives, libertarians, and leftists.  Worst, he’s still limply directing the [...]

Competition Makes Parties Better

The worst thing that could happen to the small-government movement would be the creation of a third party.  The best thing that could happen to the small-government movement is the threat of a creation of a third party.  Conservatives could force the bloated Republican establishment to diet if they can convince their natural hosts that [...]

AFP Phillips calls for respectful but firm protest tactics
December 15, 2009-Washington, D.C.
Tim Phillips knows what it’s like to have protesters physically challenge him and his views. Days ago he experienced angry protesters jumping on stage screaming in favor of climate change proposals and against him and Americans for Prosperity’s presence at the United [...]

No Captain? No Problem!

Republicans seemed unorganized heading into the next two major elections.  And so what?  Those on the right should prefer that no governor or senator currently comes across as someone grown in a lab for the purposes of leading the charge for a flat tax.  Not having a legal guardian could be the best thing to [...]
