I remember thinking in the early 1990s, “Will we ever see a woman President?” Today we are seeing the inauguration of our 44th president, Barack (yes, Hussein) Obama. I’m adding his middle name for all of our ultra- neo- conservatives out there (and also the Fox News junkies). This is a momentous occasion which we [...]

Well, well, well. We are finally in the home stretch of this arduous presidential campaign. I received five voicemails this weekend alone from the McCain/Palin camp and/or the Republican National Committee (RNC). Pre-weekend tally: ten. That’s fifteen so far. What about the other four? Today. Today alone I recieved five voicemails, four from the RNC [...]

Well folks, it’s coming down to the wire. There is one more presidential debate tonight and I thought I’d share with you just one reason why I don’t like Barack Obama. I will preface this by saying that I am a lifelong Democrat and will probably vote for him so that more of [...]

Okay, how do I put this? Please, some Independent stand up and run for President. The Democratic National Committee and national news media have made Barack Obama the presumptive presidential nominee. Let’s face some facts:
Hillary Clinton has (arguably) won the popular vote. (It’s damn near 50/50)
The Senators have only 120 delegates separating them this minute out of about 2,100. [...]

With today’s decision by the Democratic National Committee’s Rules Committee’s decision on Michigan’s and Florida’s votes I am as some could say, quite dismayed. Howard Ickes’ comments sum up my opinion on the topic. The votes of those primary voters in Michigan were not counted toward what and whom they voted for. It was a disgusting [...]

For the first time in American politics we have a woman and an African-American in the running. It’s ugly out there and I’m not talking about attack ads. I am talking about the racial divide. No one last night on CNN had balls enough to answer the question posed by Lou Dobbs about race helping to [...]

In what order should we try to fix our lives through government? My answer may surprise you… Who or what should YOU elect?
