The Libruls Are Winning. How Can We Win Instead?

February 26th, 2013

By Dan Miller Offer free reverse-lobotomies? Probably not. This is a rant. So sue me. A Hell of a Lot! The problems An article at American Thinker is titled Three Reasons Conservatives are Losing the Battle for America. Although it struck me as excessively repetitive it’s probably correct for the most part and well worth [...]

What’s a Conservative to Do?

November 28th, 2012

By Dan Miller Things are getting worse and we have to do something. But what, how and when? We can continue to lick our wounds, gripe as the situation deteriorates or try to ignore the problems. Alternatively, we may be able to do something useful. The situation is deteriorating. David Solway asked at PJ Media [...]

Deep in the Heart of Texas

June 22nd, 2011

By Tom Carter I haven’t written for a while because I’ve been caught up in the trauma and confusion of moving. For the past 12 years I lived mostly in Belgrade, Serbia — and for the last 10 years in the same apartment. Two weeks ago, Cat and I moved permanently to Texas, with a [...]

Winning Is the Only Thing

November 3rd, 2010

By Tom Carter “Winning isn’t everything; it’s the only thing.” That famous quotation from American football legend has been attributed to Vince Lombardi, but it probably came first from UCLA coach Red Sanders. Whoever said it first, it applies to politics even more precisely than to football or other sports. Why is winning the only [...]

Random Thoughts

October 16th, 2010

By Brianna Aubin I’ve always found it ironic that although the Left is quite enthusiastic about helping small business, the middle class, and the pursuit of the American dream, they then immediately go on to punish any of those small businessmen or middle class members who actually manage to attain the American dream by becoming [...]

Mortals, Messiahs, and Chickens

December 5th, 2009

By Tom Carter It’s been interesting to see the reactions to President Obama’s speech on Afghanistan. He announced the decision to send 30,000 more troops, but he assured the country (and the enemy) that they’ll begin coming home about a year after the deployments are complete. This was a classic of Clintonesque triangulation — the number [...]

Leftist Talkers Shooting Blanks

October 22nd, 2009

The race is on to carve out a place for a “hard left” talk show host to counter the Glenn Beck phenomenon. So far it’s a rout as Beck rolls over the best the left has to offer. I expect to see the nasty brothers, James Carville and Paul Begala, show up in prime time [...]

Camille Paglia writes a column on Salon.com once each month. Every third column consists of her responses to questions and comments from readers. Her are a few samples from the column published today: On President Obama’s responsibility for selecting inadequate advisors and staff: Obama’s staffing problems are blatant—from that bleating boy of a treasury secretary to what [...]
