From Sea to Shining Sea

It started in Virginia and moved to New Jersey.  After that, the momentum swept to Massechusetts [heh heh – dumb bitch misspelled her own state!].  But beyond that, the writing has been on the wall for some time now:

“We didn’t like the Republicans but this, THIS, is NOT what we had in mind!

Where the Right is Wrong: Gay Marriage

Posted on March 16, 2010 | Leave a comment

Liberty.  What is it?  What does it mean?  To me, it means being able to make choices and decisions regarding my self and my property.  It means that both my decisions and my labor is my own.  It means I am free.

This is Why Democrats Are Ineffectual

Posted on March 12, 2010 | Leave a comment

Wanna know why Democrats almost always fail in their battles with Republicans?  Because they don’t know HOW to govern.

I HATE Airline Delays

Serious.  I absolutely hate it when we board the plans, taxi some and then have to wait on the tarmac.  I hate it for three reasons:

Republicans Can Only Blame Themselves

Posted on March 4, 2010 | Leave a comment

There is a decent chance, better than 50-50 right now, that Obama will pass his health care turkey.  If he does, Republicans are partly to blame.

The GOP is Limiting Their Base

Posted on March 1, 2010 | Leave a comment

The more and more I watch, follow this stuff and learn, I begin to feel that there is no party for me.  I see these far far off the map religious kooks and I’m like “Jeez!  That’s not even CLOSE to me!”

Pre-Existing Conditions

Posted on February 27, 2010 | Leave a comment

This health care debate has been raging for quite some time.  Listening to the talk and the pundits and all the rest of ’em, you begin to filter out the chaff from the wheat.  It seems pretty clear that there is a general agreement that we all agree change has to take place; it is costing more than it needs to for medical care.  Equally clear is that there is a fundamental philosophical difference between the Liberals and the Conservatives.

The Party of No

Posted on February 27, 2010 | Leave a comment

So, I was watching and then listening to some of the Health Care Summit the other day.  Through out the whole thing I couldn’t help but wonder how the Democrats are winning the commercial message concerning who is truly the party of No.  Every conversation that I heard was based on the fact that we all agree health care reform is needed, and how.  The only request is that the Dems abandon their bill and start over.  Clean sheet, clean slate.

Their answer?  “No”

I am Going Shopping

When I was young, my dad told me that I needed health insurance.  I kinda laughed it off.  However, through my 20’s, I went through periods where I did and then did not have coverage.  Looking back, I should have maintained coverage for the duration; I never should have taken insurance “holidays”.  But where I was right when I did have coverage was the type of policy I bought.

The Virtue of "No"

Posted on February 23, 2010 | Leave a comment

All too often folks on the Hill who don’t agree with the Liberal agenda are cast as the “Party of No”.  As if all they wanna do is stall legislation and attack for pure political points.  Then we’re told that Washington is broken.

“Washington right now is broken,” Vice President Joe Biden told “Early Show” co-anchor Harry Smith. “I don’t ever recall a time in my career where, to get anything done, you needed a supermajority – 60 out of 100 senators.”

“I’ve never seen it this dysfunctional,” added Biden.
