There is a great article in American Thinker today: The stakes couldn’t be higher in the June 10 primary between Eric Cantor and conservative economics professor Dave Brat.This primary could very well be the election that determines whether amnesty passes. A Brat win could stop wavering Republicans from caving on amnesty in the (rumored) upcoming June […]

The article was intended to be true investigative journalism. As such, I reported exactly what I found and attempted to […]

If you hold conservatism as a value, you must maintain an anti-war stance. The current state of American militarism is in clear opposition to the conservation of foreign and domestic wealth, property, freedom, safety, and life. As the modern war-justifications from the shrinking crowd of neo-conservative fear mongers grow in absurdity, as our President spreads […]

On President Reagan’s 100th birthday, today, Super Bowl Sunday, I had to reminiscence at bit on the impact Reagan had on me. Let’s start with this: An unknown American author named Harold Bell Wright wrote an obscure book called That Printer of Udell’s. It’s a story about a local printer who starts a movement in […]

It’s hard to argue with results, but that is exactly what Republicans are doing with Party Chairman Michael Steele.

Yesterday’s Richmond Times-Dispatch has a piece written by Jeff E. Schapiro declaring that Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is the defacto leader of the Republican Party of Virginia, NOT Governor Bob McDonnell. I tend to agree with this position as Ken has been leading the charge on issues like Obamacare, Cap & Trade, illegal immigration and other […]

I was particularly impressed with Rep. Thaddeus McCotter. McCotter represents the 11th district of Michigan and I had never heard of him or heard him speak before. He spoke softly but powerfully about the intellectual and ideological basis for conservatism. His sense of duty has a Calvinistic ring to it. Congressman McCotter is determined to […]

This article in the Weekly Standard by Matthew Continetti made me wonder what is happening to conservatism today. Breaking up big banks and adding regulations is conservative? Here’s some highlights: Over the last week, however, Paul Krugman has written two columns saying the size of the banks is irrelevant; what matters are the rules the […]
