The big impression
Mitt Romney can fix our broken economy. That’s the big impression I’m left with from the Republican National Convention …
Read MoreThe Obama normal vs. the Romney prosperity
The real goal of the Romney Plan for a Stronger Middle Class is to create a generation of full employment and growing take home pay. The Romney vision for America is very much like that of Ronald Reagan and Jack Kemp. Like those great conservative leaders, Romney believes that if you have a job and you have rising take home pay, you can take care of your family, work as a volunteer in your neighborhood and build a decentralized free society of enormous potential.
Read MoreThe silence of the wolves
The focus has been on Republican treatment of rape victims, Romney tax returns, and how Republicans want to put blacks back in chains. Can you imagine such an unserious campaign? Can you imagine such silence on key issues in the face of such critical economic issues pressing America?
Read MoreE pluribus unum
“Out of many, one.” This is one of America’s greatest values. This value separates us from so much of the world …
Read MoreA liberal got mugged
You know the saying: a conservative is a liberal who got mugged. The most liberal presidential candidate in U.S. history, George McGovern, got mugged a few years ago … by the liberal system he helped create …
Read MoreMedia bias
The president has admitted to drug use. Why didn’t the media pursue the story? Why didn’t they track down his friends from his high school and college years to learn more about this man who is transforming the value system of our nation from the top-down? The young Barack Obama’s life is largely a mystery. On the other hand, they are digging deep into Mitt Romney’s past, not out of journalistic integrity, but out of a desire to find dirt …
Read MoreThank-you for running, Rick Santorum
Rick Santorum amazes me. I heard him speak at a small gathering in a West Des Moines home last summer. I never thought he had a chance to win the nomination. I was wrong. The man who lost his last election, a Senatorial race in Pennsylvania, in a landslide gave Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich all they could handle …
Read MoreBubba Watson for President?
Bubba Watson turned the world of golf upside down yesterday with his stunning, come-from-behind victory in the Masters Golf Tournament. It got me thinking. Should Republicans consider drafting him as their nominee? I know what you’re saying. He’s only thirty-three, he’s not old enough to be president according to the Constitution. On the other hand, he’s got an authentic U.S. birth certificate. That counts for something, doesn’t it! …
Read MoreNewt Gingrich for Secretary of Health and Human Services
Newt Gingrich would approach the mammoth task of reforming HHS as a collaborative effort with the states as opposed to the top down, cram-it-down-your-throat approach preferred by current Secretary of HHS, Kathleen Sebelius, and President Obama. Liberals think that conservatives hate government. I don’t think that is quite correct. Conservatives believe government functions most efficiently the closer it gets to the people it is serving. Mr. Gingrich shares that view …
Read MoreStrong Republican debate tonight
By Tom Quiner Tonight’s debate was strong on substance. All four candidates made the Republican case and exposed the weakness of President Obama’s policies. I think every single candidate came across well. Rick Santorum was in the crosshairs and had Mitt Romney and Ron Paul ganging up on him. Mr. Santorum kept his cool. He…
