I want to take this opportunity to speak directly to those of you who oppose my decision to support the FISA compromise. This was not an easy call for me. I know that the FISA bill that passed the House is far from perfect. I wouldn’t have drafted the legislation like this, and it does [...]
I know that Obama is one the strickest politicians on the 2nd Amendment (voting consistently against gun rights), I know that he has mentioned a few very expensive social programs, but none of that bothers me as much as his support of the FISA and the governments ability to spy on citizens. Obama announced that [...]
One of my readers had a negative comment about “Obama Presidential Seal”. I actually had to google what she was talking about. Here it is: I understand concern over Obama’s social programs, spending & tax proposals, but what I don’t get is ridiculous attacks like this.

In their eyes the world is in black and white, you are either for us, or you are [...]
On NBC, 17 Jun 2007, Chris Mathews asked on his self-titled show “What are Americans looking for in their next first lady?”. On a panel of 12 voters all went for a Laura Bush first lady over the Hilary Clinton first lady. http://mediamatters.org/items/200706170003 To be fair the question asked was two dimensional with a thin [...]
“Such a statement portrays the depth of Senator Obama’s inexperience and reckless judgment. These are very serious deficiencies for an American president to possess,” McCain said in an appearance at the restaurant industry’s annual meeting. He was referring to comments Obama made Sunday in Pendleton, Ore.: “Iran, Cuba, Venezuela — these countries are tiny compared [...]
