President Barack Obama is disliked by conservatives not because he is a liberal or a Democrat, but rather because he stands against the very beliefs we uphold dearly. Bill Clinton was not liked by conservatives and we often didn’t agree with his policy decisions, but at the end of the day we knew he was trying his best to uphold American ideals. Why Barack Obama is so scary is that he doesn’t want to improve America, but rather remake what it is. Pat Buchanan in today’s syndicated... Read More→

Ronald Brownstein of the National Journal looks at the fall of the Republican Party in non-southern states. The statistics are astounding and very scary for conservatives and libertarians who make up the base of the GOP. Here are a few: Since the 1972 presidential election, Republicans have beaten Democrats in the South 53-46, but have lost severely in non-Southern states 56-42. In the past five elections, the GOP has only won an average of 21.1% of the electoral college votes from non-Southern... Read More→

Dick Cheney rails against the NY Times for printing the Bush Administration’s Terrorist Surveillance Program in his speech at the American Enterprise Institute today. He keeps up his role as the main critic of the Obama Administration and is warning Obama not to go to far from the Bush playbook. This is a smart political move as it prevents the Obama Administration and the media from blaming Bush for Obama’s foreign policy failings. It also puts pressure on Obama to keep Americans... Read More→
