“Experts” Pan Houston’s Sekula-Gibbs

Posted on November 21, 2006January 31, 2007 by marc

Shelly Sekula-Gibbs ran off all of Tom DeLay’s staffers – hooray! That ought to be a good thing but now the so-called experts are all up in arms against her. Gary Polland, a former Harris County Republican chairman: “if she decides to run in two years, the story will be, ‘That’s right, Shelley was in…

D-R-A-F-T

Posted on November 21, 2006 by marc

That’s what Charles Rangel of New York wants to re-instate.  He says: There’s no question in my mind that this president and this administration would never have invaded Iraq, especially on the flimsy evidence that was presented to the Congress, if indeed we had a draft, and members of Congress and the administration thought that…

4 Years Ago Today: Big Brother is Coming

Posted on November 15, 2006 by marc

4 years ago I wrote: The fact is, there is always going to be a certain amount of risk involved in living. No President can change that by ordering profiles created on each of us. A better first step would be to build a working immigration and naturalization system. Non-citizens inherently have lower expectations of…

Lou Dobbs Democrats

Posted on November 15, 2006January 18, 2007 by marc

Lou Dobbs: “It seems nothing frightens our free trade and pro-illegal immigration orthodoxies more than putting the common good and the national interest above dominant special interests, corporate America and, of course, our darling elites in both political parties and the media.”

Stinkers of the Day

Posted on November 15, 2006 by marc

O.J. Simpson’s New Book “If I Did It” may be the truest thing the smug bastard’s said in years.  Can’t wait to not read it! On a personal note, I got some benefit out of the case – it taught me what it really means to be a racial bigot.  In those days I worked…

Life Under Democrats

Posted on November 9, 2006 by marc

Let’s hope the Washington Post is right about Rahm Emanuel and his influence: Top Democrats such as Rep. Rahm Emanuel (Ill.) see these middle-of-the-road lawmakers as the future of the party in a nation that leans slightly right of center.In private talks before the election, Emanuel and other top Democrats told their members they cannot…

Bush (41) vs. Bush (43)

Posted on November 9, 2006 by marc

David Broussard writes, regarding the situation in Iraq, that: How would things have been different in 1991 if President Bush (41) had decided to “stay the course” and “finish the job” and rolled the 600K coalition troops right into Baghdad?  We will never know for certain. Likely we would have spent years rebuilding the country,…

A Full Dem Congress

Posted on November 8, 2006 by marc

Even yesterday I thought this was impossible; today it seems inevitable.  The change is exciting.  And scary.  What are they going to do?  Not much, probably.  In ’92 the Gingrich Revolution fizzled into nothingness.  This year’s Pelosi Parade will probably do the same.  But not until W gets his face rubbed in a dish of…

The Hated (by me) Incumbents

Posted on November 7, 2006 by marc

According to CNN, when asked if they approved of how Congress is handling its job, 62 percent of Americans said they did not, while just 36 percent said they did. Why then, as of 10 PM Central time, has every one of the incumbent Democrats been re-elected? Various reasons, mainly Iraq.  Bush’s handling of domestic…
