  • Sen. Palin and the Rape Kits

    But Palin was the mayor and her city was charging victims for their rape kits. Whether the Alaskan legislature's law against that practice was because of Wasilla is irrelevant. It was her town and she allowed the practice. The 'myth' is not debunked. The elaborations of it are, but the basic 'myth' is fact. Mayor Palin allowed her city to charge ...

  • Re: Treasuries...

    I am much too poor and too ethnic - 3rd Generation American from Midwestern Chicago -- with three wonderful Italian Grandparents - and too fundamentally well educated to count myself as a Conservative, a Republican, or a John Birch Society Member. However, being 54 years of age, and seeing the disaster that is my America today, in every ...

  • Sarah Palin & the Republican Party

    It's taken me a couple of days to sort out my feelings but now I realize what's been troubling me. It's grief - recognition of complete hopelessness. I'm a registered Democrat now, have been for a while now. But at heart, I was still a Republican, hoping for the Republican Party to right itself, come back to center, to sanity. I was born into ...

  • Makes Me Laugh -- Elites With Furrowed Brows AT LAST - -

    So, the FDIC Chairman is a female children's book author from Massachusetts, who started her new job running security for our Nation's bank deposits since 2006? How fortunate for her. I am a Massachusetts/New Hampshire working guy going back to 1990, originally from the Midwest, with some college but no degree, and I have been ''getting ...

  • Re: Nothing More UnAmerican Than The Pledge of Allegiance

    Seems to me we do not DEMAND enough of our patriotic Americans. We should not only DEMAND that our citizens salute the flag, place our hand on our heart when doing so, stand when we sing our national anthem, we should also DEMAND that everyone who resides in this once great country SPEAK ENGLISH, and we should not DEMAND our taxpayers pay to ...

  • I Liked Ike -- Now I Like Mike - HUCKABEE, that is

    I liked everything I heard about Mike Huckabee, even before he started running in earnest for his Party's Nomination to be our next U.S. President. The more I learned about Mike Huckabee, the better I liked his candidacy. Further, he is a very well-spoken and persuasive guy, with that down-to-Earth Midwestern style I always liked about ...

  • Patriotism, shame, and truth.

    I love the idea of America. Yet, the reality is that it has a hell of a lot of unacknowledged blood on its hands. This is not to say that terrorism isn't horrible or that Stalinism wasn't a much greater monster - but the US has some big dark skeletons hiding deep in its closet. Real American history is brutal and full of some genuinely ...

  • Re: May I Suggest Reading The Transcript

    McCain is a wily coyote politician from arid Arizona, who has spent his long, post-hero career bedding women and making hay in Washington DC politics. Reminds me of George Mitchell and not a few others. Such big egos and such small results. Is George Mitchell married even yet? At least Bill Cohen found someone to settle down with. Not only would ...

  • Clark is a disgrace to his uniform!

    Don't you people who are defending Clark know what he has done? Wesley Clark lead the attack on Waco and ordered the slaughter of many American men, women and even children. He is a Clinton crony and that is why he was running for POTUS in 04. Men like this have NO right to disgrace or downplay the service of a man who went into a Democrat ...
