The EU constitution should have been abolished since it was not truly a constitution . [hat tip: polipundit] 1. A constitution has to be readable to permit a popular vote; this text is unreadable. 2. A constitution doesn’t impose a political ideology; this text is partisan. 3. A constitution is revisable; this text is locked […]

The MSM has sunk to a new low this week, not only by jumping all over a few minor, insignificant events where the Koran was not handled gingerly enough, but by misleading and hiding other facts. What is pathetic in this MSM lemming act is they have NOT addressed the much more severe abuses of […]

I have been a firm believer that the democrats began their march to permanent minority status when the liberal left began pulling back, then critizing the morality of our War on Terror (WOT).

Moderate, non aligned voters make up roughly a third of the electorate. Bush won these handily, but Kerry had a lot of votes from this pool of […]

In fact, our heroes are more likely to come from the core of America – the average citizen. Here is a story of one such American. An extraordinary person who reflects well […]

NYTimes had to admit again today the economy under Bush is darn good. WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. employers added only 78,000 workers to their payrolls last month, far fewer than expected, a government report showed on Friday, but the unemployment rate edged down to it lowest level since September 2001. [5.1%, which they had to […]

Many felt the GOP lost terribly when the filibuster deal was made at the 11th hour. Then again, many felt that this was a first skirmish in a strategic political battle where the GOP had to win the filibuster fight, win the nominations and win the respect and support of the American people (mainly the […]

I have already posted on the Netherland’s vote and how it is being seen here, but David Brooks has an insightful Op-Ed that is a must read [registration required]. Here are some of the great points he lays out while he lists the economic failures in Europe, which are really failures from the same policies […]
