Sweeping Fed Powers For Federal Reserve

March 29, 2008 | 2 Comments

 I am always dubious when it comes to sweeping new powers for anyone, especially the the government. Now a non-legal extension of the government is being granted (proposed) the power to investigate potential threats to the economy. How will they identify such threats and who will be making the decision what a threat is? How […]

Tancredo’s will pardon the two border agents, Ramos and Compean!

October 20, 2007 | 1 Comment

Tancredo presses the people to test the real conservatism of the top tier candidates. He has nailed the top tier candidates. I would like them to address at lest several of these topics. In the meantime it appears that Tancredo will pardon Ramos and Compean. Would be nice to hear more candidates say this. Don’t […]

Quote: Positively Conservative

October 9, 2007 | Leave a Comment

This quote is one forgotten by many in office on both sides of the isle. We would be much better off as a nation if we remembered the  foundational principles which were meant to protect the citizens from government and themselves.
“I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that ‘all powers […]

 Oh how true it is.

Congressman Jordan the leanest Lawmaker

August 29, 2007 | Leave a Comment

It doesn’t surprise me. Critics will blast him for not bringing home the “pork”. However, you can’t have it both ways. If the public wants more responsible and fiscally conservative restraint in government you have to have more “less porky” politicians. Proud to know my U.S. Rep. is the best in Ohio.
Conservative Group checks out […]

Positive Thought - Patriot Quote on Laws

August 22, 2007 | Leave a Comment

 This one quote makes more sense than the volumes written on law. It should be hammered into every law student around the country. It’s brevity, clarity should be reflected in ever judge, lawyer and students in high school.
“Laws are made for men of ordinary understanding and should, therefore, be construed by the ordinary rules of […]

Huckabee - Great Choice even if its the #2 spot

August 9, 2007 | Leave a Comment

(Photo: Mike Huckabee for President) I have not heard all the debates as I have wanted. However, when I have watched several candidates stood out on various topics. But none other has so far struck me quite like Mike Huckabee.
It seems hard to believe that it is already the time to begin choosing […]

Reagan: Conservative Principles

May 10, 2007 | Leave a Comment

Principle: Government limits the growth and dreams of the people. Larger government is antithetical to the very nature of a free people.
It is no coincidence that our present troubles parallel and are proportionate to the intervention and intrusion in our lives that result from unnecessary and excessive growth of government. It is time for […]

Reagan: Conservative Principles

May 5, 2007 | Leave a Comment

Principle: Government is never the solution, only the source of more problems.
In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. From time to time we’ve been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior […]
