As someone who considers himself a conservative (even if nobody else does), I generally like to concentrate on social issues, the issues that I tend to disagree with other “conservatives” on. There are two main reasons for this
1. I like to argue. If I concentrated on taxes and spending, I couldn’t highlight the differences between [...]

Its fair to say that we need more debates. We have enough candidates to choose from, and I don’t think many people who hadn’t decided who they support before the debates were convinced. I think that’s good.
It’s okay if you have a chosen a candidate to support, as well, but not all of us have [...]

I would like to personally thank your children for funding my government.
Thanks!
Ronald Reagan did it. George HW Bush did it. Bill Clinton.. (oh yeah that’s right he had a surplus at the end of his 2nd term). George W. Bush is doing it. Why is the only time we’ve [...]

I found this video, and it may be old news (I seem to behind on some of my posts, forgive me, I’m still pretty new).

Well, we all want to change the world.
But there is a better way. Now I’m sure my liberal and conservative friends can agree (finally, The-G-Blog, a uniter, not a divider) that the current way is not working. So do we let the government step in to once again solve our problems (like the war on [...]

If I could get one wish, I’d make it a Gingrich-Gore Presidential race in 2008. Say what you want about their policies, and idiosyncracies, but both of these non-candidates could really change the course of our country.
Vice President Gore has experience in the Senate, and in the Executive branch that no other candidate has [...]

I was watching CNN the other day, and get ready for this……..Two correspondents, Heidi Collins and some other guy were discussing the fact that we seem to have, in part of the country anyway, found a way to win the war in Iraq.It appears we have made agreements with several former Bathe Party leaders to [...]

I know today’s school shooting at Virginia Tech has really been terrible, on so many levels. I pray for the people who did and didn’t make it, their family and friends, and anybody associated with Virginia Tech who has been personally affected by this tragedy.I think it’s a good time to have a discussion about [...]

I wanted to title this blog “Imus Isn’t Half As Bad As Your Government Is”, but I’d already used my mandatory Imus headline.
The drug war has done to more harm to society, minorities in particular, than the Iraq war has. Richard Nixon coined the term “war on drugs” in 1971 after my parents got to [...]

Sorry, Everybody’s got a “Imus” headlines now, and I kinda felt left outBut I think we’ve got bigger fish to fry.
I don’t think the Republicans or Democrats are being intellectually honest with us about the war in Iraq, or Afghanistan. (In unison, YEAH!!)We need to have a serious debate (not just here, but [...]
