William Kristol wrote an essay in his magazine, the Weekly Standard. It is well written and worthy of comment. Kristol’s thesis is that when we renounced the world badge and beat, we ended up with 9/11. But Kristol confuses the Cold War with the post-war era. I certainly agree with him that we were too […]

Every week on Monday morning , the Council and invited guests weigh in at the Watcher’s Forum, short takes on a major issue of the day. This week’s question: What grade would you give Republican Presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s acceptance speech? The Noisy Room: Many will disagree, but I give Mitt Romney’s acceptance speech an […]

For those on the left that are trying to spread the “you took Obama out of context” line, his ‘you didn’t build that’ comment is even worse when you consider the context. If Obama’s logic were right, we would all own businesses. His point in context is that we have Government to thank because without […]

You have probably seen the Barack Obama campaign commercial by now in which Obama spikes the football again and again wanting his “props” for ordering Seal Team 6 to execute Osama bin Laden. Which for many was a step too far, especially after the left criticized former President George W. Bush at the mere sight […]

I was amused about the comments of a US general who was fired for inappropriate comments in public about the Afghan government: In a recent interview with the website Politico, Fuller characterized Afghan leaders as erratic, ungrateful and isolated from reality. The interview quotes him as saying Afghan leaders don’t fully recognize America’s sacrifices on […]

Thaddeus McCotter is a congressman from Michigan; I heard him speak on C-SPAN at one of the 2010 political events and found him intriguing. He plays guitar and was recently on the Huckabee show playing with the band. I like him very much. Now Thaddeus McCotter has entered the Presidential race yesterday; his five points […]
