Changing The Tone

Tue, 09 Mar 2010 02:15:34 -0800

Changing the Tone By Scott C. Smith'The spirit of cooperation I have seen in this hall is what isneeded in Washington, D.C. It is the challenge of our moment.After a difficult election, we must put politics behind us andwork together to make the promise of America available for everyone of our citizens. I am optimistic that we can change the tonein Washington, D.C.' -- President George W. Bush, speech, Dec., . 'That background may lack the polish of Washington.Then again, I don't have a lot of things that come withWashington. I don't have enemies to fight. I have no stake inthe bitter arguments of the last few years. I want to change thetone of Washington to one of civility and respect.' -- PresidentGeorge W. Bush, speech, August , .

John McCain's "Agreed Framework"

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 02:43:43 -0800

I am by no means a fan of Senator John McCain Arizona. And itseems like every couple weeks I become less and less of a fan ofhis even being in the Republican Party. Today, I am to the pointof publicly asking Senator McCain to just make it official andturn the R next to his name into a D. PLEASE! Enough withthe charade!Campaign Finance Reform brought me to the edge of the cliff ofmy patience. Now, Senator John McCain attempting to nuke theConstitutional Option has forced me to jump.History teaches us many lessons. One of the most important isthat you can never negotiate in good faith with those that arenot bound to reality but that would rather pursue their ownpower over all else. John McCain has now made his bed with thosethat seek power above all else; the Senate Democrats.Joined by six other Republicans unwilling to force an up or downvote on judicial nominees and seven Democrats who never had anyintention of voting for conservative judicial nominees, McCainhas...

Pictured on the right, he has been a breath of fresh air I've enjoyed catching glimpses of in the afternoons over the past few weeks. Sweeties, he could expose anything to me - to my mind that definitely warrants a breakfast! Shut-up! I can have my dreams!

New Defense Secretary Changes Everything - Perhaps

Sat, 06 Mar 2010 02:19:47 -0800

On Election Day, the American people spoke very strongly that the direction the President and the Republican Party was taking America towards, is not the direction the country wanted to go in. Presidents are not oblivious to polls. They may not honor them, but they are not oblivious to them. The most important issue in the campaign turned out to be two issues according to the exit polls. They were CORRUPTION, and IRAQ in that order. The President was quick with a lightening type response to the election. I personally felt Donald Rumsfeld was going to be fired or weeks after the election to allow him to leave with his dignity intact. The President dispatched the now lamb duck Secretary within hours after the voters made their decisions. In doing so, the President is insuring that this Congress will ratify the nomination of Robert Gates, not a Democratic Congress convening in January of . What type of man is Robert Gates, the D Sec as they call the Secretary of Defense? There are...

Do You Want a Government to Run Your Life?

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 02:23:12 -0800

It seems like more and more people are screaming that they want the government to solve their problems and more for them. If you ask me this is very dangerous to freedom not to mention your right to privacy. We need to limit government not add to it. When you add more and more you add more cost which ultimately means more taxes. Do you want to be taxed more? I for one do not. In fact I do not want anyone nosing into my legitimate activities at all. The more power that you give the more power that is exercised, plain and simple. In my opinion many agencies could be eliminated. They are likely justifying their own existence with useless activities that do not add any value to any of us. All people who are governed should be very wary of who is doing the governing and to make sure that the activities are beneficial and productive. People elect and therefore should be in control of who is elected. It is up to us to make sure that we are governed fairly and with respect and that the real pr...

Obama refuses to yield on healthcare reform

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 17:19:17 -0800

by Ken Feltman, Radnor Inc.President Obama's stubbornness is causing Congressional Democrats anxiety as he keeps pushing healthcare reform. Most Democrats are hearing from the voters back home and the voters are not happy. Voters assume that time spent on healthcare is time not spent on jobs. Expect Obama's favorable rating to continue to slip if he keeps pushing healthcare. Expect more and more Democrats to jump ship if the party leadership does not change the agenda. At this point, it may be impossible for Obama to recoup positive feelings toward his leadership. Focus groups show that more and more people are giving up on Obama. The recent Healthcare Summit produced mixed but generally positive reviews of Obama's performance. Then, as focus group analyses came in, that initial impression changed. People are exasperated with the effort, with Obama and with the House and Senate Democratic leaders. With the Summit, Obama took firm c...

Bye Bayh, American pie

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 17:15:54 -0800

By Ken Feltman, Radnor Inc.Hear reason, or she'll make you feel her. Benjamin Franklin The retirement of Indiana Democratic Senator Evan Bayh stunned Democrats. Bayh, a moderate in a right-of-center state, has never been threatened in previous elections. He was ahead in the polls and had a huge war chest. He was expected to win but he tossed in the towel. He said, in effect, that the job was not fulfilling anymore. The primary reason most Democrats are retiring is straightforward: They think they will lose in November. Democrats across the country are getting discouraging results from their political advisors and pollsters. If negative poll results caused accidents instead of jittery nerves, the emergency rooms would be filled with Democratic candidates. Bayh did not have popularity or money problems. He faced a tougher election than usual but was favored. Bayh quit for a second and a third reason. He was tired of being pressured by Senate...

Not until I figured out he wasmaking a commentary on the state of criminal affairs in thecountry to which my wife and I had expatriated could I form acogent reply.There is violence in Mexico. In addition, and what may surprisesome of my critics, is my admission there has been some violenceagainst and kidnappings of some Americans. That is a fact.I had a reader quote an article by Tracey Eaton, with the DallasMorning News, in hopes, I suppose, of supporting his claim thatcrime is massively rampant in Mexico. Ms. Eaton does quote somefigures and then points out, and quite correctly I might add,though the dead include"'university students...

New Era in the UN

Tue, 02 Mar 2010 02:14:14 -0800

Does the appointment of Ban Ki-moon as UN Secretary General bode well for UN-Israel relations? What challenges does Ki-moon face? A quick sketch of the pre-eminent diplomat On September , the UN Security Council approved the appointment of Ban Ki-moon as the next UN Secretary General. Ki-moon is presently South Korea's Foreign Affairs and Trade Minister. The position of UN Secretary General, which he will enter in early will apparently be the climax of a glorious diplomatic career in the service of South Korea. This career has brought him numerous prizes both from his country and from the countries where he served as representative. The War of the Innocents The first question we need to ask following the change of personnel at the UN is how it will affect Israel. Will Ki-moon's appointment banish the black cloud that has darkened Israeli relations with the UN? Under Kofi Anan, the UN outdid itself in treating Israel unfairly. This was evident in the Secretary General...

The Project For a New American Century!

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 02:52:29 -0800

In recent months we have engaged in many conversations withChristians and non Christians alike, on matters concerning theAmerican Government, and its activities in the world today. On auniversal level, those of the faith AND those who do not shareour faith agree on one thing, and that is that none of what wehave been saying here at th Hour for the last months isactual fact, and that it is all "OUR opinion and OURmisinterpretation of George W's policies and intentions", purelyspeculation and our conjecture: no supportable facts". Thefollowing article will summarily place that statement in thewastebasket... where it belongs. The document outlined in thisarticle was inspired by the foreign policy outline drawn up byDick Cheney and his colleagues in , when he was secretary ofdefense for the Senior Bush's administration. It is a documentedfact that these men had sent letters to Bill Clinton and ravedabout these mandates that they felt were essential to America'sfut...

Government Health Care Bill: The Next Step On the Road to Tyranny and Slavery

Sun, 28 Feb 2010 02:06:15 -0800

Democrats deceptively argue that the health care bill is legal under the commerce clause of the Constitution. The commerce clause relates to business, not individuals, but the Democrats have skewed the original purpose and intent of the Constitution. When asked to point out where in the Constitution authority is granted to force an individual ' ultimately at gunpoint ' to buy government health care, Speaker of the House Pelosi said: 'Are you serious?' It is said Obama was a constitutional professor at the University of Chicago Law School even this is a lie ' he was in fact 'a senior lecturer,' not a professor, so we should assume he has at least some knowledge of the principles of the Constitution. Obama likely knows that the Constitution does not mandate Americans be forced into a contractual agreement with a private party for health insurance. Rate this Article:
