Rep. Parker Griffith of Alabama has switched parties. He is now a Republican. Welcome to the Republican Party Congressman. Just like former Georgia Senator Zel Miller, he did not leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left him. The Democrats used to be a big tent party, with conservatives like Miller, Scoop Jackson, and …
The backstory: President Obama has an aunt (Zeituni Polly Onyango) who is living illegally in the United States. Yesterday, she appeared before a judge in Massachusetts. He postponed her hearing until February 2010. The hearing was closed at the request of her lawyers in order to conceal it from the American people. It speaks volumes …
Obama and the Congressional Democrats are not wasting time. The drive to turn the United States into a socialist country is happening right here, right now. Overwhelmingly, the Old Media are in accord with this, so there will not be any opposition from those, heretofore, had acted to preserve liberties. The elite Republicans are in …
Every president has successes and failures. Every president is termed the “worst president ever.” President Bush could not be an exception. So how will history judge President Bush.

Why is the conservative movement in decline in America? The answer or answers had better be provided soon, and conservatives and the Republican Party had better take note. The first post identified a fundamental cause–the Left owns the public sphere and has driven conservative political thought and expression from it. The implications of the Left’s …
Conservative politics in America has taken a pounding since President Reagan. It has been rudderless and impotent against its Left wing opponent since at least that time. Indeed, one could argue it has been so since Lyndon Johnson’s presidency. Where is the conservative movement in America going? Into decline, I am afraid. This is so …
Palin calls it Socialism. Obama calls it a “Tax cut.” Though, I heard Obama say “spread the wealth around.” That sounds kind of like Socialism to me. Obama wants to take your money and give it to who he thinks needs it. Ultimately, Palin hits the nail on its head by saying, “To me our …
What’s new is that someone is now keeping track. Seems like a mundane job. A study shows the Kings of Late Night are not equal-opportunity destroyers this year when it comes to telling jokes about the candidates for president and vice president — they’re hammering Republicans a stunning seven times more often than they skewer …
