On January 20, 2010, Obama will officially be President of the United States for one year.  And what a year it has been for the “messiah.”  He has done something that most political pundits would never have dreamed was possible if you told them on January 20, 2009.  On that day, Obama was making his inauguration speech in front of hundreds of thousands of cheering supporters chanting in union “Yes, We Can.”  To all the members of the “political class,” it looked... Read More→

President Obama took 3 long months to formulate a strategy in Afghanistan that pleases no one in this country.  For the first time in his presidency and similiar to President Lyndon Johnson’s handling of the Vietnam War, a president has found a way to alienate both the hard right and far left in this country.  It is truly remarkable.  By sending 30,000 additional troops to Afghanistan, he has gone with a middle road that doesn’t please his base or his opposition.  No matter what the... Read More→

Over the past few weeks, I keep asking myself the same question over and over again.  Is this really America?  I ask the question, but end up coming up with mixed answers.  I feel like the America I know and love  still exists, but it is not being represented in Washington D.C.  The White House and Congress are promoting ideas and implementing programs that scare the daylights out of any freedom loving American. Since being inaugurated in January, President Obama has kept his promise to voters... Read More→

On the night before election day, there is good feeling rising among conservatives who feel like it will be a good night for candidates.  After losing the presidency in a blowout and watching Democrats reach 60 seats in the Senate in last year’s election, Republicans are itching for payback tomorrow.  They have had to deal with an administration that has increased the national debt, passed a nearly $900 trillion stimulus, and is on the verge of passing a health care entitlement that will... Read More→

President Barack Obama was elected in November under the pretense that he was a moderate Democrat that would unite red states & blue states together.  He was going to be the post-partisan president who would unite Democrats & Republicans together and end the vicious partisanship of the Bush presidency.  Under the Bush administration, the culture war was front and center in American politics creating two entrenched camps of partisans that made Washington ineffective and despised by... Read More→

President Obama and Democrats are letting ideology stand in the way of making the best decisions for the American people.  It may be what breaks them, but I don’t think they particularly care.  Liberals suffered for eight years under George W. Bush and really haven’t had a clear shot at passing progressive reforms, such as Nationalized Health Care, since Bill Clinton’s first term in office.  You would think after the disastrous defeat of “Hillarycare” in 1994 that... Read More→

President Obama made it crystal clear tonight that he and the Democratic Party will pass a health care bill at any cost.  It doesn’t matter if Republicans craft the bill or not.  It may not even matter if Blue Dog Democrats help craft bill.  Health Care will be passed.  It is a “moral obligation.”  It is to honor Ted Kennedy.  Nothing will stop them now.  They are committed. During the month of August, townhalls were held throughout the country where many Americans,  especially... Read More→
