Obama’s American Revolution – 2010
We are ready. We are ready for change. We are ready for a Revolution. The American people have already demonstrated a powerful desire for revolution. Witness the elections of 2006 and 2008. Democrats have registered to vote in historic numbers. Barack Obama – a relative unknown – won because he represented the best chance […]

Glen Beck is the Disease in America
Glen Beck has topped himself. He somehow has managed to equate evolution with progressive politics. His comparison of revolution to evolution is totally insane – but the real fear is the platform given to him by the ‘conservative movement’ in America. These folks think they are carrying out Ronald Reagan’s vision – but Ronald Reagan […]

Republicans, Intellectual or Joe Six-Pack
Is there something wrong with being intellectual? There was a time when Republicans were proud of their position on advancing education, proud of elite education, proud that America offered educational opportunities to all. But something has gone wrong. The Republicans of the past thirty years have discredited thier greatest strength – the opportunity of America. […]

Taxes Are Inherently Socialistic
Taxes. No one likes them, no one agrees on equal distribution, no one wants them raised – but we all agree that they are necessary and useful. How insane is that? Taxes are inherently socialistic – they inherently redistribute the wealth. From the U. S. Department of the Treasury: “The federal, state, and local tax […]

The Bottom Billion – a Hungry World
Son, Shocked, but not surprised. That is often the reaction of intelligent people when bad things happen. A very bad thing is happening on our planet. Poverty and hunger have become so devastating that the statisticians now refer to a segment of the human population as ‘the bottom billion.’ We are talking about people who […]

McCain looks to Rove
Son, The ultimate in betrayal. The turning on one’s followers. The lost hope. John McCain was once the hope of the Republican Party. McCain was the man who was to bring the Party back from the wacko fringe of Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter. He was the man who was to restore the Reagan Revolution. […]

This American Revolution – 2008
Son, We are in a time of flux. This is a difficult time for statisticians. The Media Pundits are dissecting the election statistics, trying to make sense of demographics and results. Some say Obama is about generational issues. Clinton is about gender. Edwards about populism. Huckabee about evangelism. This is not a time when these […]

The John McCain Shelter for Abused Conservatives
John McCain has brought sanity back into the Republican Party. McCain is the realistic optimist of Ronald Reagan. The Reagan Revolution has been hijacked by abusive personalities who hope only for power and control. When an abused spouse cries out for help we provide an Abuse Shelter. We provide a place of sanctuary. We provide […]

The Ron Paul Revolution – reports by PBS
Son, This guy, Ron Paul, is something of a phenomenon. He is wildly conservative – while presenting himself as a practical man. The mainstream media has given him no attention – other than to dismiss his candidacy. There is a Ron Paul Revolution. This ten term Congressman has used the modern technology of the internet […]

The Dark Mood of Voters
Son, This election year has few historical examples to choose from. Perhaps in 1932 or in 1980. Those elections were gut wrenching because of the dark mood of the populace. The dark mood was one of the somber reality of the power of the President. 2008 is one of those pivotal moments in history when […]

Violations of our Constitution – Revolution
Son, We have written a number of times about our Founding Fathers, and their intent for this great country. Today finds our country again at the threshold of revolution. But American Revolution has come to mean that we have an election and the people decide in a peaceful manner what direction the country should take. […]

Bush – the Jimmy Carter of Republicans
Son, We should thank George Bush. He is the Jimmy Carter of Republicans. People talk about the Reagan Revolution – it was really the anti-Carter Revolution. Bush has led this country to a new revolution. His hard line on everything has highlighted the fundamental problem with being hard line. He has highlighted the fundamental problem […]

General Mood versus Individual Issues
Son, Statistics rule. The current political campaign for President highlights this truth. All of us pundits have been somewhat befuddled. But not as befuddled as the candidates themselves. Hillary Clinton has the most exhaustive list of issues and answers to the issues – yet she is struggling for support. Romney has taken traditional and well […]

An American Revolution – 2008
