I'm a new member here and hope I'm not stepping on any toes with this Post. I can't take credit for all of this since it is and expansion of an idea started by David Hinz at a site that shall remain unmentioned. for those who've already seen it from the other site, please forgive the redundancy.

I'm interested in input, (especially yours David) on this resolution and look forward to your comments.

It looks like the Democrat machine (one dominated by 527's like MoveOn.org and other) doesn't like competition ans is looking to drive groups like Freedom's Watch from the political scene.

The Washington Times reports via Power Line that the DCCC is trying to make groups like Freedoms Watch, who are poised to spend millions of dollars in attack ads, too unsavory for republicans to associate themselves with.

Howdy folks! Well, a big h/t to our good buddy simpson316 for expertly cleaning-up poor jmk1502 - been a while since we had a moonbat with Ronulan trendings around here. Alas, he actually had a couple of valid and serious points packed in with rantings about The Real Reasons For The Iraq War and, of course, The Jooooooooooooooos! Oh well - let's hope he manages to secure a spot in "Debating 101" next semester and can return better armed to discuss the topics of the day.

Let us have an open thread - featuring this video from a not-at-all-hard-to-look-at-young-lady who, well, has obviously had her young little heart shredded a couple of times...

RUSSELL KIRK DESCRIBES CORE CONSERVATIVE VALUES IN THE TRADITION OF EDMUND BURKE, ALEXANDER HAMILTON, WM F BUCKLEY, AND GOLDWATER. CONSERVATISM IS, QUITE LITERALLY, WHATEVER HE SAYS IT IS.

Republicans need to embrace America’s conservative roots which made her great in the first place

Here’s a question for ya. Why do REPUBLICANS need to embrace conservatism? Why do I say that? Shouldn’t DEMOCRATS also embrace conservatism? Shouldn’t Martians, tall people, and people who love horses also embrace conservatism (that’s for you, C)?

In point of fact, yes. EVERYBODY should embrace conservatism. But we are Republicans, and operating the political machinery of the nation to benefit the nation is our business. We’re smart, realistic, handsome (or beautiful), we shop at Home Depot, and we love America better than we love political power. The Dems can say those things too, but they are lying when they do so. So let’s start with us, and we’ll get to the others as time allows.

Follow me to school...

I was inspired to write this blog by Doc Holliday's comment in EPU's excellent What Fredheads want - offering the Olive Branch (I would say that one olive I wish were on the branch were the olive of McCain not pandering to Latino hate groups, but I digress), where Doc says:

House passes broad housing rescue despite veto threat

The House has passed a housing aid plan to provide $300 billion in refinanced mortgages for struggling homeowners. President Bush says he'll veto the bill. It passed 266-154 with support from 39 Republicans. The measure would let debt-ridden homeowners refinance into fixed-rate, government-backed mortgages they could afford. Congressional analysts say it could help as many as 500,000 borrowers and cost $2.7 billion over the next five years. The White House calls it a burdensome bailout that would open taxpayers to inappropriate risk and reward those who helped cause the housing crisis.

Rep. Tom Feeney (R-FL) took to the floor and gave an eloquent speech in opposition to the Democrats' mortgage bailout bills that would expose innocent taxpayers to over $300 billion worth of risk in order to bail out speculators and those who participated in mortgage fraud.

Well said Congressman!

No matter what your view of this particular case is there simply is no arguing that the so-called war on drugs is one of the biggest abominations this countries has ever endeavored. Although the drug war, I'm sure, was begun with the best of intentions -- it has seen very little (if any) return on our investment and has incarcerated people who simply do not deserve to be imprisoned.

Recession - They keep a-using that-a word. I do not think it means what they think it means...

But fear not folks, Recession^TM is right around the corner!
