Untitled Document I’ve been known to call it like I see it. I talk way too much about my Maltese. I adore handwritten letters. I watch horror movies and listen to music that makes my grandmother proud. I fantasize about winter cottages. I hate that dream where I’m running from something and I’m in slow motion. I believe in God. I eat lots of kale. I run, spin, lift weights, and like to climb things. Oh, and I LOVE my country.

Romney Gives the Mainstream Media a Treat

on February 1st, 2012

In an appearance on CNN today, Mitt Romney said the following: “I’m in this race cause I care about Americans. I’m not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I’ll fix it. I’m not concerned about the very rich. They’re doing just fine. I’m concerned about the [...]

Newt Gingrich and Herman Cain Kick It Up a Notch in Texas Debate

on November 7th, 2011

Saturday night’s Gingrich-Cain debate in Texas was a departure from the typical debates of the past few weeks. During a 90-minute session, the candidates addressed the topics of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, articulating the depth of their ideas without absurd time restraints that usually leave viewers with too many unanswered questions. Gingrich and Cain [...]

Herman Cain Could Be the Right Man for the Job

on October 19th, 2011

In last night’s CNN debate, Herman Cain once again defined himself as a businessman, not a politician, declaring in his introduction that “I solve problems for a living.” Cain has continued to rise significantly in the polls. Monday’s Rasmussen Reports survey showed him with a 43-41 percent lead over President Obama and a Newsmax/InsiderAdvantage poll [...]

Candidates Shine in Best GOP Debate So Far

on October 12th, 2011

Last night’s Bloomberg-Washington Post GOP debate was perhaps the best one yet for many reasons. First, it focused on the topic at the forefront of every American’s mind: the economy. Second, it featured an interesting round in which the moderator allowed candidates to ask each other questions. Most importantly, it showcased the fact that many [...]

Sarah Palin rocks Iowa: “The status quo is no longer an option”

on September 3rd, 2011

Sarah Palin hit the stage in Indianola, Iowa this afternoon to keynote the Tea Party of America’s “Restoring America” rally. And she certainly pulled no punches. Palin took on President Obama’s failed policies and proclivity toward crony capitalism, stood firm in her support for tea party principles and rekindled the 2008 RNC speech she gave [...]

What We Need to See and Hear in the Iowa Debate

on August 11th, 2011

As President Downgrade proceeds with his fundraising, fiestas and blame game, GOP presidential candidates will take the stage tonight at the Fox News Iowa debate. At this critical point in our country’s history, it’s time to toss out the platitudes and talking points. GOP contenders, here is what Americans need to see and hear from [...]

Mark Levin and Heritage Action for America Get It Right

on July 27th, 2011

The question that hit my email inbox repeatedly yesterday was: “What do you think of the Boehner plan?” Truthfully, I’m not impressed. In my humble opinion, it reflects an inability and unwillingness on the part of GOP leadership to dig in their heels and stand firm on principle. It reflects a refusal to go above [...]

GOP, what are you so afraid of?

on May 23rd, 2011

I spend quite a bit of time calling out some on the left. I detest big-government policies that simultaneously snatch our liberty and rob us blind. I find class warfare to be profoundly un-American. I have no patience for leftists who demand civility while spewing hateful rhetoric, or those who insist that feminism, diversity, and [...]

Q & A with Jedediah: April 2011 Edition

on April 28th, 2011

With all of the infighting in the Republican Party, how can a non-political junkie decide who the right candidate is? If I were Obama, I would keep my mouth shut and let the other side self-destruct. Why can’t they just concentrate on Obama’s record and stand together? – Ben While I agree that some political [...]

My statement on the budget deal: No more pale pastels

on April 10th, 2011

The United States is over $14 trillion in debt. The AP reported in March that, “The federal government’s budget deficit grew by $222.5 billion in February, the largest one-month increase in history. Economists are forecasting the deficit for the year will be the biggest imbalance on record.” So, am I popping the cork on the [...]
