[I plan on voting for John McCain for President despite his intention to address and legitimize the hate group, La Raza]

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:

Tim Russert deservedly established a reputation for fair and objective examinations of politicians of both parties from the beginning of his installation as sole host of NBC's Meet the Press in 1991. Before September 11, 2001, he was one of a very few major MSM reporter/anchors that was greatly respected by conservatives. He used to spend an hour each year around Thanksgiving interviewing Rush Limbaugh for many years and has even been a guest on the Talk Radio giant's show, sometimes for the purpose of promoting a book.

My eyes just opened wider than when Michelle Obama told the whole truth concerning her lack of pride in America until her husband got white votes in Iowa.

My conservative black friends told me long ago of the taboo subjects in black America. I have seen Clarence Thomas and others attacked over same. John McWhorter outlines them best in his “Losing the Race.” But I have to admit I was shocked tonight, when…

The rise in the price of energy is hurting the economy. It is pushing up the price of necessities like gasoline, heating oil and food. It is greatly reducing the standard of living for low income families and the middle class. It threatens to push the US economy into recession.

Americans will not elect losers of a war in 2008. They have never elected a known McGovernite. Even McGovern agrees. see below

Nearly every day since the MSM declaration of a quagmire 72 hours after our invasion of Afghanistan, most of the liberal press and the Democratic Party have said and done for free what our Islamist enemies would gladly have paid big money to have them say and do.

Does this necessarily mean that most liberals are unpatriotic and/or want our enemies to prevail against their own country? No

Immigration shows Mexico's need to change
How can its citizens be inspired to want to stay within its borders?

"A nation without borders is not a nation."

-- President Ronald Reagan

Two months ago roughly one out of 10 Mexican citizens celebrated their nation's signature Cinco de Mayo holiday while residing in the United States. On last week's Independence Day, the American people celebrated the revolution that has made our nation the envy of the world.

I have always been an American exceptionalist that loved America from the First Grade till today.

I have always been patriotic.

I shed tears upon hearing the National Anthem, speeches quoting the Founders, Lincoln, FDR, etc.

I spent too many losing years in the weak on defense Democratic Party not to smell a GOP victory, especially when the Democrats, now boldly compete for the McGovern appeasement mantle, rather than obfuscate it with nuclear engineers and Massachusetts’s war medal winners.

Rush To Excellence in Detroit
"An Evening with Rush Limbaugh"

May 3, 2007

RUSH: Thank you all. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! I can't tell you how wonderful THAT makes me feel. It's great to be here, back in Detroit, and it's great to be here as part of WJR's 85th anniversary and it's an honor to be on that radio station, the number one radio station in this city, because of me.

Rudy Giuliani, Cheif Justice of the United States John Roberts and Associate Justice Clarence Thomas baited the Democrats into acting out in public this past week, and recent information from The Planet Mars promises to flush out more kookiness this coming week that will pave the way to GOP victories in 2008 that would allow us to publish majority reports in 2009.

Rudy pulled out the proven Reaganite winning hands calling the democrats weak on national defense and socialists at home this week. The democrats whined, but at their recent debate, proved Rudy's claim from their own lips.
