Pearl of Wisdom
2008-03-28 09:36:00 A pearl of wisdom from Rush Limbaugh: “John McCain is really depressing conservatives. It was just five years ago that he was toying with leaving our party. In 2004 he toyed with being Kerry’s vice president. We’re so screwed.” That’s exactly how I feel. The Real McCain Record More About: Wisdom , Pearl

Constitutional right to life
2008-03-28 09:25:00 Joseph Farah makes a great point: “We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States ...

I believe
2008-03-24 01:24:00 The empty tomb is not to be overlooked. It is one of the most (if not the most) important evidences of Jesus’ resurrection. The most convincing evidence to me, however, is the testimony of his disciples. I hope and I pray that my faith is strong enough that I would die before denying that Jesus ...

When is the Sabbath?
2008-03-17 12:13:00 23% (the largest percentage) of those who responded to a poll on WorldNetDaily about which day Christians should regard as the Sabbath said “Sunday.” I was joined by only 7% who said “Any day of one’s own choosing.” Literally speaking, I don’t see how anyone could argue that the Sabbath is any other day than ...

Homeschooling is ?elitist and anti-democratic??
2008-03-17 01:02:00 The recent ruling in California has gotten people talking about homeschooling. I have nothing but respect for parents that homeschool. I will definitely consider it as an option for my own children someday.

Obama?s America-hating pastor
2008-03-16 13:34:00 I’m glad that Obama has condemned his pastor’s controversial statements, but Joseph Farah is right: If your pastor was saying stuff like that, would you stay in that church? Would you have your children baptized there? I certainly wouldn’t. “We believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God.” “We ...

The lesser of two evils?
2008-03-06 05:53:00 I don’t like the idea of voting for John McCain. I’ve said it many times before, but I’m afraid we’re going to lose the Republican party to liberals if we keep voting for the lesser of two evils rather than insisting on quality conservative candidates. On the other hand, Daniel Oliver made a great point on ...

Not satisfied with McCain? Vote for Huckabee.
2008-02-19 08:03:00 If you live in a state that has not yet held its primaries and you do not support McCain, I’d encourage you to vote for Huckabee . McCain is still short of the nomination, and we don’t have to support the establishment candidate. Huckabee can’t get the nomination, but he can ensure that we get a ...

The annoying Firefox pop-up window size bug
2008-02-02 03:47:00 Has anybody else experienced the frustration of trying to comment on blogs hosted by blogspot? You know, you click on “Leave a Comment,” and the pop-up window is about a tenth of the size it should be. You can’t read the other comments, and you certainly can’t leave one of your own.

Liberals, liberals, everywhere
2008-02-01 05:09:00 According to National Journal’s ratings, Barack Hussein Obama was the most liberal of all US senators in 2007. Hillary was ranked 16th. Those conservatives who are thinking an Obama presidency would be better than a Hillary one better think again. On the Republican side, we have John McCain, who didn’t even vote enough last year ...

Fred calls it quits
2008-01-23 00:25:00 Fred withdrew his candidacy today. UPDATE: Mitt Romney issued this statement: Throughout this campaign, Fred Thompson brought a laudable focus to the challenges confronting our country and the solutions necessary to meet them. He stood for strong conservative ideas and believed strongly in the need to keep our conservative coalition together. Ann and I would like to extend our best wishes to Fred, Jeri and their family and congratulate them on their efforts during this campaign. UPDATE2: Fred would likely have won Louisiana: Louisiana’s social conservatives created the winning “Pro-life, Pro-family” slate in early January largely because we didn’t know if Fred was still going to be a candidate at the time of our caucuses (turns out that he wasn’t, by a few hours). Because we had almost all the state’s social conservative leaders for Fred, we were also able to stave off Huckabee by use of this “pro-life, pro-family” slate. I was re... More About: Calls , Fred
My punditry days are over?
2008-01-20 04:16:00 I’m 0 for 2 now. I thought Romney was out of the race after New Hampshire, and I thought Fred was going to win in South Carolina. Just goes to show that you can’t make accurate predictions if you’re emotionally invested in the outcome. I’m disappointed that South Carolinians decided to vote for John McCain and ...

David Limbaugh: Answering Fred?s Call
2008-01-18 04:01:00 David Limbaugh (Rush Limbaugh’s brother) encourages people to support Fred Thompson: Commentators are citing the unpredictability of the Republican primary contests as proof that Reagan conservatism is dead when precisely the opposite conclusion is warranted. The main reason the conventional wisdom is being shattered in the primaries is that conservative voters, so far, have not been persuaded ... More About: David , Call
Financial advisers? No. 1 worry: ?Democrat in White House?

In fact, having a Democrat president worried financial advisers more than concerns such as global unrest, a terrorist attack or a recession!

Predestination vs. free will
2008-01-14 06:55:00 Does God predestine us or do we choose him of our own free will? As pointed out by J.P. Holding at Tektonics, the question boils down to a dichotomy: “Does God foreknow because he foreordains or does he foreordain because he foreknows?” I tend to believe the latter. In a very loose sense, I believe ... More About: Free , Predestination , Free will

Rush: ?It looks like we have a conservative in the race, folks?
2008-01-12 01:51:00 It’s not an endorsement, but it’s apparently as far as Rush Limbaugh, who doesn’t do endorsements in primaries, will go: “It looks like we have a conservative in the race, folks. “…You just heard Huckabee say, in defining Reaganism, ‘We need to make sure that we communicate that our party is just as interested in helping the ...

SC Debate Winner: Fred Thompson

With Romney out, is Thompson going to take the lead?
2008-01-09 02:47:00 Romney outspent all the other candidates combined in both Iowa and New Hampshire, and yet he was unable to take first place in either state. This should prove that he is unviable as a candidate. If he drops out, we’re left with John McCain, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee and Fred Thompson (no one really believes ...
