My Thoughts on the New PresidentWritten by Comments Off
Last Updated November 5, 2008I believe that all of you know my views on the two candidates that were vying for the job as the President of the United States of America. Arguably the most important job and person in the world. Well, obviously things didn’t go the way I had hoped and I do have reservations as to where our great nation is headed. However, all of my concerns aside, I cannot deny the amazing significance of what has just happened. It’s very easy to forget – especially for those of us who are on the younger side – that it was only a little over 40 years ago that there were Jim Crow laws ... -
Senator McCain 2008 Presidential Election Concession ...Written by Comments Off
Last Updated November 5, 2008My friends, we have come to the end of a long journey. The American people have spoken, and they have spoken clearly. A little while ago, I had the honor of calling Senator Barack Obama to congratulate him. To congratulate him on being elected the next president of the country that we both love. In a contest as long and difficult as this campaign has been, his success alone commands my respect for his ability and perseverance. But that he managed to do so by inspiring the hopes of so many millions of Americans who had once wrongly believed that they had little at stake or little influence in... -
To the Undecided Voter: Part 7 – Does this refl...Come on! Put the celebrity worship aside for a moment. Put skin color aside. Just think about Obama and his “spread the wealth around” tax policy. Let’s talk heartbeats. Sounds weird, but I’m going somewhere here. A bit of Internet research led me to the fact that the average number of heartbeats in a life time for a human being is about one billion. To make this more understandable, the average human heart beats around 70 times a minute. In one eight-hour work day your heart beats around 33,600 times. This is your heart beating – every beat subtracted from...

To the Undecided Voter: Part 5 – Obama’s ...By “Obama’s Friends” we mean the likes of Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers, Tony Rezko and other assorted miscreants. I could spend a lot of time here detailing the crimes of Obama’s friends – and make no mistake, they were his friends. At this point I don’t think that any votes are going to be changed one way or another by detailing the corruption of Rezko, the America-hating of Wright or the unrepentant terrorism of Ayers. Suffice it to say that Obama was close to all of these people and these were associations born of mutual interests and philosophie...

To the Undecided Voter: Part 3 – And Then There...This really isn’t a reason to vote for or against Barack Obama, but you do need to know what the next four years are going to be like with an Obama presidency. During the campaign there have been some rather amazing charges of racism. Let’s see if we can remember a few: Using the word “skinny” to refer to Obama is racist. “Community organizer” is a racist term. Any reference to a connection between Obama and Franklin Raines, the former head of Fannie Mae is racist…that would be because Raines is black. All references to Jeremiah Wright are raci...
