The following is a comment left by Scott F on my WTF post that I copied to my home site (sorry Brian), it’s a good comment, here it is…
Scott -
The positions you enumerated in the bulleted list can still sell. But only if you guys make an effort to divorce yourself from the flat-earth wing of the party and return to some pragmatic approaches to governing.
People aren’t going to vote for know-nothings who think global warming is a myth. That ship has sailed, fellas. And I don’t think Americans are buying the idea that market forces are going to fix our health care problems. People actually want the government to do something, and they want it to work. Although it is at odds with your “less government” position, this is one area where you’re either going to make an exception or you’re on the fast train to Whig city.
Rejoin public opinion (and frankly, reality) on a few of these issues and you may find that your message still sells otherwise. (Truth be told, though, I think you’re going to lose on the gay rights thing, too, eventually.)
Myself -
- “flat earth” politics will always have a place in my heart… well, at least the pro-life part of it. Read more

And the WTF is not over the winner… (by the way, well done ‘O, well done)
The WTF is over the mad dash to decide just WTF happened, and where do we (as conservatives) go from here.
Well, we already KNOW what happened…
- The republican party presented a liberal candidate (duh, he’s called “maverick” for a reason …idiots) (”idiots” being the party bigwigs), and he had his a## handed to him.
Some are trying to play pin the tail on the donkey, looking for someone to take the fall…
- Hello idiots (okay, from here on out, just consider “idiots” to mean the republican leadership), your left reaching tendencies are what brought us here in the first place. Your trying to “reach out” to the dems by allowing your party to go from the party of Reagan, to the party of “the Mav” is what has us cutting each others throats right now. What, did you actually believe that by reaching out to dems, that they would reach back out to you and vote for anyone other than a dem? Do you actually think the dems care about anything other than power? (FYI, that ain’t a bad thing. If your trying to “get into power”, have a desire for that which you seek always helps) Libs want us to be more like them so that they can ram through the things that they want, not so they can vote for us, you idiots!!! Oh, and trying to blame the only thing McCain had going for him (…and that would be Palin) for this loss is just plain stupid… idiots…
Many conservatives are now trying to “take back” the party. Many are starting new conservative groups online, some are calling for a “Whigging of the GOP”, some (like me) are just spitting mad and venting anywhere we can… (and no, I ain’t feelin better… thanks for asking…)
A note to those starting new conservative groups, good on ya! We need a good bloodletting…
Hmmm, but you might want to think about a few things before you start spending too much of your time and energy trying to retake the party… Read more

I was just “interviewed” by a member of the media concerning my thoughts on just how important the “pro-life” issue is with me as it pertains to this election.
My response was -
“Life is 100% of my vote. If neither candidate would have been pro-life, I would not be voting. The economy, the war, national security, taxes, these are all just frosting on the cake as it where. Without life there would be be no economy, war, national security, taxes.”
Yup, that pretty much sums it up right there. No other issue effects mankind’s future the way “life” does.
Now, do I really think my one lone vote will decide the fate of all mankind? Will it change even the course of this one minuscule election? Will it have prevented even one abortion? I’m thinking not.
However, I do know that my one lone vote will allow me to sleep easily… if even for one night…

“The Candy man”… that�s who he is!!!
Promise after sweet promise after sweet promise
“Hope”… “Unity”… “It’s not about me, it’s about you”…”We can change America”… “yes we can”… “Yadda yadda yadda”
No substance!� Speech after speech, add after add, and all I’ve heard�so far is fluff, fluff, fluff.� Cripes, it’s as if some giant cotton candy machine’s exploded, sending pink joy floating through the�skies and the whole world is riding that magic carpet sugar high right on into the ballot booth.
Hmmm…. Just thinkin bout all the goodies he�s cookin up for me …makes me want to sing… Read more

A Facebook friend posted an interesting article. Here’s my take…
With the seemingly eminent election of not only Obama, but of enough democrats to make up a “super-majority” in both the House AND Senate, what will does this mean for you and me? Well… Read more

Finally somewhat awake, here’s my take:
Okay, nuf of that.
I’m glad McCain finally went on the offensive, it just sucks that he took so long to get there. And no, I ain’t talkin bout Ayers little Acorn, I’m talkin bout Obamas plan to raise taxes in these crazy economic times. Sheesh, talk about economic suicide!
Now, I get that the ‘O man is smooth as silk, but I’m getting the feeling that the closer we get to voting time, the more people are going to see the error in ‘O’s ways.
Anyways, I give last night to McCain. He did what he needed to do, for the most part he attacked on the issues that matter, and while Obama always managed to duck and weave around most of them I think most people are now going to have to start taking a serious look at teflon man and where he actually stands on things. I mean there really is an election coming up… a real one… where your vote really does matter… and sooner or later folks are going to have to wake up from the dream that is Obama, smell the capuchino, and pull the lever for the man (this time) who’s going to direct this nation through the meanest economic time this generation has ever seen. Do you really think a “tax and spend” liberal is really what this nation is going to need these next few years? …Really?

Barack Obama - “… I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.”

A few days late (third shift haze yo), and still relevant… at least I think so…
I made it (albeit half asleep) to the famed Waukesha townhall meeting held by McCain and Palin. Here are a few notes. But first… how I called it… Read more

Check out the comments on this guys blog… sheesh, and all he did was show support for McCain… oh, … and be black at the same time…
While at the McCain-Palin “town hall meeting” in Waukesha yesterday, James Harris stood up and challenged McCain to “take it to him”, and commented on the hell he personally was taking for supporting McDude. “Hell”? Come on, dude, it’s the 21st century, Gen X-r’s are large and in charge baby, we “respect diversity”, we honor self expression, we… we… Hmmm, I guess we ain’t doing nothing more than being what we have been for the last bajilion years… haters of those not like us… and haters more those like us and who are also different…way to go morons…

After listening to last nights debate at work on the radio… (no U-Verse at the job site…) here’s what I got…
As far as this debate is concerned, I still have to ask just what the heck can either of these turkeys say now that will change anyone’s mind now?
So from where I was banging up walls last night/this morning, Obama takes this debate… And no, even though it’s been DVR’ed, I don’t want to see it… I’m just sayin…

Alexander(A) and U-Verse dude(d) had a little heart to heart yesterday… here’s how it went…
A-hears the deal, when I signed up for U-verse a year ago my outlook stopped sending. I called your office and someone there unblocked some filter/blocker/something or another, I need you to do the same thing now because the same thing is happening. Read more

Looking back on the debate, I’d have to say both parties won… or that a little too touchy-feely for ya? Well alright then…
So for me, overall there was no clear winner or loser. Which is good for the ‘O man, not so good for McDude. I will say this though, because there was no clear loser, Obama’s lead will continue to grow.
It’s up to McCains war machine to come out from behind that hill and start doing what their getting paid to do… and I sure hope pulling back from the Michigan front was a part of the “master plan”. …doubt it…

Found another sticky note I left for me a few hours from now. I don’t mind finding these notes from myself from time to time, it’s just I keep leaving them in the weirdest places… The last one I found in the microwave, and for some reason this one I left under my toaster. Hmm. Well, I might as well get to it…
“Dude, she rocked the house!!! don’t forget to chill the Guinness, okay? Check it…

Sooo now what, if you have an opinion you can’t also be a professional? Give me a break.
I pair this brouhaha over Gwens book with all the ruckus over the video of kids singing the praise’s of ‘O… get over it. If kids are forcibly taken from their homes to make a pro-O vid, and if Gwen opens the debate with a promo of her upcoming book, THEN you have something to scream about. Let me ask you something, if this were ‘El Roshbo doing the moderating, and the lefties where freaking out, would you give the same credance to their arguements? Heck no, you’d defend Rush as a “professional able to both have an opinion AND objectively moderate a debate”. Right now, I see her as a professional doing her job, who happens to have a book about to hit the streets.
Sheesh, you “righties” keep this garbage up, I might just check her book out when it hits the libraries…

Dude, My personal blog is a little of main (shameless, I know…) and I don’t remember anyone asking ME how this “failed bailout” affects me. Hmm, I’ll check my voice mail… Nope, nothin there. Hmm, maybe the feds have been patching into my cell phones camera and watching/listening to Lady and I “discuss the issues”. Hmm, first let me turn this thang towards the wall.
Well, since their obviously so interested, I’ll just go ahead and tell them here. Read more
