  • The Big Bailout...Ha!

    There is no need for a bailout of the bank when we can bail them out through tax payer spending...heres how: America has fought hard to become an independent nation and a leader in innovation, so how can we fix our current economic downtrend efficiently? Some seem to think that throwing money at the corporations who failed us is the answer…we all ...

  • Fred Doesn't Hate Anyone

    How long do we think it'll take the Libs to tell us what the RINO's records are?? Yup, about a minute...why should we wait to know what they're going to say? Candidate Research - Know Who You're Voting For ( The Easy Way ) http://tinyurl.com/2sowta

  • Fred Thompson's Keen Understanding of Foreign Policy Issues

    I am surprised that more has not been made of Mr. Thompson endorsing (or at the very least utterly dismissing) the diversion of U.S. funds specifically earmarked for anti-Al Qaeda activities to the Pakistani military’s anti-India weapons programs. That’s what he did in the South Carolina debate the other night. Remember this little ...

  • The Fair Tax Is A Pipedream!

    First, the reason macroeconomists love the ''Fair'' tax is because it's their idea in the first place...Huckabee merely ''borrowed'' it for his platform. Second, why are we still talking about a pipedream?? The 16th Amendment will not be repealed to see it to reality. Even if we could, other taxes would be heaped on top including the fact ...

  • Dismissing Fred T. may not be a good idea!

    Hello Slate! I've been listening to The Gabfest for a while now and finally decided to jump into The Fray! Over the past few weeks, I've heard Fred Thompson dismissed as a serious candidate for President. While I agree with the many reasons you dismiss him, the one item on the list I think you're forgetting is the strong ''image'' factor. Just ...

  • Should we stay or should we go now?

    I don't fault Bush for his religious beleifs. I share many. I do fault him for listening to his neo-con brethren and simply going into a country without a plan for TOTAL defeat and subsequent rebuilding as the Marshall plan accomplished in post WWII era. The problem with this war and recent previous wars is we won a few quick victories and assumed ...

  • Islamic Extremists and Numerology

    If you account for Leap Years, this coming Tuesday is the first Tuesday September 11th since Tuesday September 11th, 2001. Is there any significance to Tuesdays in general or do Islamic sects practice numerology as any part of their prescribed religious beliefs? One other significant number that comes to mind is that this is the sixth ...

  • Fred Thompson on the issues

    Or more accurately three issues. The qoutations are taken from a book The Conservative Book Club is trying to sell me. The War in Iraq:''In the two and a half years since the President received a standing ovation from every member of the House and Senate, I have been flabbergasted at how quickly some have forgotten the words they applauded ...

  • Arthur Bremer, where are you now?

    How low we’ve fallen as a political state. We used to be a nation blessed with screw ball fringe candidates of substance—John Anderson, Ross Perot, Ralph Nader. These are people that accomplished impressive things in their lives. Even if they were outside the mainstream (that mainstream is going to be the death of us all, you know) and duly ...
