“Michael Steele, who is the first African-American to chair the Republican National Committee, denied Wednesday that race is fueling protests.
President Carter is flat-out wrong,” Steele said in a statement. “This isn’t about race. It is about policy.”
So can we put this question to bed yet?
No.
You see, both Carter and Steele are wrong.
This is the polarization [...]

You think?
Sure, racism plays a role in the opposition facing President Obama, but the problem I have with this—aside from the fact that it’s true—is that it becomes an “out” and a race card for all those in lock-step with the Democrats, Liberals, and President Obama.  It feels like an attempt to polarize the country [...]

UPDATE:  http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/10/acorn.prostitution/index.html
 
A friend mentioned to me about a hidden-camera video taken at an ACORN office in Baltimore in which a “pimp” and “prostitute” are given advice on how to work the system to accomodate underage, illegal immigrant girls in their sex-trade business.
I had to hear it for myself.  The advice includes lying and cheating on [...]

“You Lie!”
I heard it over the radio and thought “Wow!  Someone actually spoke up!”
Consider that President Obama had already said that “death committees” was a “lie” and that he also said that the plan’s detractors would be called out in the future…

When it comes from a non-partisan source, will you believe it?
According to the CNN article, the Congressional Research Council has identified provisions in the current health care plan that while excluding subsidies for health care for illegal immigrants, fails to prescribe a process for verification of citizenship. 
Interestingly ironic.  The same President who can come to [...]

There are legally imposed term limits, and then there are the unavoidable imposed term limits that life brings.  On the news of the passing of Senator Kennedy, I have empathetic sorrow for the sake of his family.  As for the country, my sentiments are more like “Good Bye!” and “Can we ever overcome the liberal damage this [...]

We expected Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to provide President Obama the opportunity to reshape the supreme court when she fell ill earlier this year.  The opportunity to replace her on the US Supreme Court may still come but in the meantime, Obama must be in liberal ecstasy on the news of Justice David Souter’s retirement!

Author’s Note:  This post is not an endorsement of Senator Specter with regard to his position on abortion or embryonic stem-cell research.  His position on both is reprehensible to me.  However, there is room to admire him for the strength of his convictions to do what is right (in his opinion) for the well-being of [...]

We are 99 days into the Obama administration and so far, I am not impressed.  While the president has kept some of his campaign promises, some of the ones he has kept are ones we could have done without.  Embryonic stem-cell research is a speculative field that has yet to produce a cure for any [...]
