McCain - The Choice Is Clearer Than Ever

If you missed Saturday night’s telecast of John McCain and Barack Obama from the Saddleback Civil Forum you really missed something. After watching these two candidates give answers to identical questions (without being able to hear the other’s answers) there is no question which man should be our next President.
McCain gave serious answers to [...]


Why I’m A Conservative Republican

That’s right! Keep on thinking that only dead white men are conservatives.

Cheer it! Share it! Embed it! Email it! We need more young people explaining WHY they hold conservative beliefs. It’s about IDEAS. It’s about FREEDOM, with RESPONSIBILITY! We’ll leave those warm and fuzzy feelings to the [...]


Bigots for Kratovil

Kratovil for Congress shill “Bud the Blogger” doesn’t like Andy Harris’ pollster. Bud claims he’s gay. I say, “So What?”.
Frankie’s boy says that pollster Arthur Finkelstein “married” his long-time partner. Again, “So What?”.
Bud claims that this somehow proves that Maryland Sen. Andy Harris is not a conservative. How? When has [...]


Conservative / Libertarian Principle - AMEN McQ!

Amen Bruce! QandO’s Bruce McQuain gives his take on Melanie Scarborough’s excellent piece in the Examiner. I threw in the “Libertarian” because that what the great guys at QandO are. As far as I’m concerned, it’s pure Goldwater.

Methodist Pastor Spreads Lies and Hate

Like the title? Think it might be a little inflammatory?
The title is no more inflammatory than the foolishness being spread by Rev. David Cassidy of Philadelphia’s African Zoar UMC. Cassidy defends Sen. Barack Obama’s “former” pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, comparing Wright to Martin Luther King and claiming that Wright “spoke the truth”.
Perhaps Cassidy [...]


When Silence Isn’t Golden

Frank Knotts at DelawarePolitics.net covers a recent Federal court ruling that bars a moment of silence in Illinois schools. The arrogance of liberal judges never ceases to amaze me.

Wicomico Liquor Dispensaries Are For the Children?

I don’t think so; but that seems to be one of only two arguments to keep the antiquated Wicomico County Liquor Control Board (LCB). The other argument appears to be one of money.
LCB chair Stewart Haemel painted pictures of little kids walking to school and buying liquor on the way. Could it happen? [...]


Get Out and Vote!

Don’t forget to vote today, particularly if you live in Maryland’s First District. Your candidate of choice needs your vote and if you haven’t made firm choice, vote for Andy Harris.
My friend and Red Maryland colleague Michael Swartz (of MonoBlogue fame) has gone out on a limb with some pretty detailed predictions. While [...]


‘New York Times’ Endorses Clinton, McCain

Perpetuating the stereotype that Florida is a sunnier, kinder and gentler colony of the “Big Apple”, the New York Times has chosen to endorse Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) for the nominations of their respective parties on the eve of the Florida primary. As usual, the opinions of America’s paper of [...]


How Will Ahtes’ Group Pay to Renovate Salisbury’s Station 16?

As noted here earlier this month, a group led by Bill Ahtes wants the city of Salisbury to donate the soon to be retired Station 16 to them for purposes of turning the building into a theater. Lest we all forget, we have already gone through this once before with the Boulevard Theatre on Main [...]


Thomas Jefferson Would Be Proud

The College of William & Mary, alma mater of Thomas Jefferson, is spending over $2,000 to bring the “Sex Workers’ Art Show” to the university. The next time someone questions the value of a “Liberal Arts” education, you’ll be able to respond.

Virginia AG McDonnell Intervenes In Episcopal Church Dispute

Virginia Attorney General Bob McDonnell has intervened into the dispute between the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia and two parishes which have chosen to leave the Diocese in light of its leftward tilt towards the interpretation of scripture.
Truro Church and Falls Church, both in Northern Virginia, have chosen to affiliate themselves with a conservative Anglican bishop [...]


Bigot?

I just noticed Bill Duvall’s little tirade about my piece concerning Idaho Sen. Larry Craig. While I welcome criticism (I actually love it), I prefer that such criticism actually attack MY ARGUMENTS rather than building a straw man and attempting to tear it down.

Craig Says “I’m Not Gay” …

… and I could care less.
What I do care about is the blatant character assassination going on from both within the GOP and from without. Sen. Larry Craig (R-ID) was arrested back in June for allegedly soliciting sex in a men’s room of the Minneapolis Airport. Craig subsequently plead guilty to a charge [...]
