Currently Reading
Sarah tagged me, so I’m therefore obligated to let you all know what I’m currently reading. I’m in the middle of a couple books right now… I started out reading Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged, which has succeeded in stoking my hatred for people. In order to cheer me up, I took a break from that […]

New Ron Paul Video
I know I’ve been quiet for a while, but I wanted y’all to see a new independently produced Ron Paul video. It’s 8 minutes, but I think it’s worth it. (HT to Daily Paul)

Conservatives Against Fred Thompson
Good… seems like other people other there get it. Fred Thompson is not a conservative, but a neo-con globalist, and the Conservatives Against Fred Thompson are working to expose this. Here’s sample of some of their articles: Fred Thompson’s Anti-gun Senate Record – The Conservatives Against Fred Thompson volunteers have compiled a list of proposals […]

Thomas and Tab on the Body Boards
We went to Hershey Park for the company picnic this year, and they had a new body board ride. Tab and Thomas both wanted to try the ride, even though we were watching adults wiping out and flying up the ramp. Undaunted, we waited in line and both got a chance to try.

Better Than “The Battle Hymn of the Republic”, That’s For Sure
Many people who know me know that one of my pet peeves is when people try to pass The Battle Hymn of the Republic off as a Christian hymn. My blood pressure goes up every time I hear it. At church this morning, we sang what I now consider the antidote. You can hear the […]

Ron Paul Article in the New York Times
As a young man, though, [Ron Paul] did not protest the Vietnam War, which he now calls “totally unnecessary†and “illegal.†Much later, after the United States invaded Iraq in 2003, he began reading St. Augustine. “I was annoyed by the evangelicals’ being so supportive of pre-emptive war, which seems to contradict everything that I […]

Slapping Down the GOP Establishment
Hmm… my politics category is drowning out the others. Oh well. Good article by John Nichols talking about a political race that on the surface didn’t look too important in the big scheme of things, but, as the author points out, could be a microcosm for the large distaste that the conservative Republicans are showing […]

Fox Reports on Ron Paul Military Contributions
Finally, one of the big news channels is covering a Ron Paul news story. Could this be the dam breaking in terms of the apparent media blackout? For those of you who didn’t hear, out of all presidential candidates, Ron Paul received the most campaign contributions from military employees, even more than John McCain. It […]

Conservatives, Beware of Fred Thompson
Richard A. Viguerie has penned an article on Fred Thompson asking whether he should be the choice for conservatives in the upcoming presidential election. After describing Thompson’s history in politics as senator and as a lobbyist, and going through issues like McCain-Feingold Bill and the Asia fundraising scandal, his answer is a resounding no. Here […]

Fred Thompson’s Appeal?
Can someone please explain to me what appeal Fred Thompson has to conservatives? I’ve heard some people out there salivating at the idea of Fred running for president, and I don’t really see anything about him that appeals to me. My impression is that he’s a cookie-cutter conservative Republican, in Ronald Regan sense, but I […]

Ron Paul Has More Money Than McCain
I can’t believe what little coverage Ron Paul is getting in the “mainstream press”. Running for political office seems to be a chicken and egg game, where the media ends up deciding who is viable. Think about it: The press only cover “viable” candidates. Viable candidates are those who poll well. Candidates can only poll […]

Ron Paul Chester County Meetup
A meetup group has been formed in Chester County to support Ron Paul’s presidential campaign. The Chester County Meetup Group currently has 20 members, and is growing pretty quickly. The neat thing about the meetups is that they’re totally grassroots in their organization. People in different areas start their own groups, to get the word […]
