Parentalrights.org has made a great argument as to why we should not ratify the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). I have largely incorporated it here at this blog post: But there is another treaty that has some of the fears that the UNCRC has (and which is generally shared with other […]

I was misled slightly but materially by one of my sources about the Charles Taylor verdict. I thought it was the International Criminal Court but it is a special court set up by the UN and Sierra Leone instead: A distinction without a difference. The Special Court for Sierra Leone was set up with a […]

While bills banning ICLEI have been introduced in several states, the best effort was quietly done in Arizona. The Senate and a House committee have voted to prevent the state and all its political subdivisions from implementing the Rio Declaration (That’s where Agenda 21 comes from!) and it bans ICLEI in Arizona! It passed the […]

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (who by the way as a disclaimer I am supporting for Governor in 2013 and I have advised him of this fact!) has come out for sensible ballot access reform: “It now appears that the only two candidates that will be on Virginia’s ballot on March 6th: Governor Mitt Romney […]

Obama was back on the Stump down in Texas and he gave us a little more insight into who the real Obama is. This is the most unpresidential president of my lifetime (and yes, that includes Jimmy Carter). He openly attacked a group of Americans questioning their legitimacy. Right now all around this country there […]

Back to the Maine GOP platform: Restore the process of assimilation of immigrants to preserve the benefits of an advanced educated and prosperous society. Rescind Maine’s sanctuary State status.

For two weeks, Democrats have attacked Republicans, and Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell in particular, for pointing out that the financial regulation bill, offered by Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd (D-CT), doesn’t end “too big to fail” and actually allows for future taxpayer bailouts. Before the bill came up for debate, Sen. McConnell warned, […]

The fact that the Washington Post got something wrong concerning Eric Cantor (R-Va) is not news. It is not shocking at all, in fact. What is both shocking and newsworthy is that they admitted they got something wrong about a Republican. In a February 26th editorial, WaPo claimed Congressman Cantor’s “tactic” of carrying the entire, […]

Bipartisanship in the true sense is an overlapping position on an issue or issues. If a bill is introduced that is broadly acceptable to most, it is a true bipartisan bill. If a number of aspects of a bill are strongly objected to by one party, like the Health “Reform” Bills in Washington, adding items […]

Bloomberg reports: Jan. 22 (Bloomberg) — U.S. investors overwhelmingly see President Barack Obama as anti-business and question his ability to manage a financial crisis, according to a Bloomberg survey.

For the first time since becoming president, Obama’s approval rating comes in below 50% at 49% according to the latest Rasmussen polls. His disapproval rating has risen to 51%. One of the main factors is the president’s push for nationalized health care. As details emerge, more and more people realize that the president is being […]
