  • Send Her Back

    Daily Dose of Reason ^ | July 19, 2019 | Michael J. Hurd
    "Send her back” is not an affirmation of racism. It’s an affirmation of “I love my country — and if you don’t love it, get out.” When your country is a free country, to love your country is to love your freedom. Properly and rationally, you see people who hate your country as a threat to your freedom. Of course you want them out! And if these toxic members of Congress now known as “The Squad” hate freedom so much, why on earth would they want to stay here? For only one reason: To use their power in Congress and...

    An American from Wink, Texas: From the 1966 MGM album "The Orbison Way" The sun on the rim of the hill Overlooking all that I love Lights up every leaf and blade Birds circling high above With trembling hand I reach down and say This is my land This land will pass on to my child When he's grown To love it as much as I For all the sons gone by And when he's a man He'll do what he can For this my land This is my land When young men die in glory And for freedom take...

  • Obama's 'revenge' comment reverberates on campaign trail

    The Hill ^ | 11/3/12 | Cameron Joseph and Jeremy Herb
    GOP nominee Mitt Romney began his final weekend campaign blitz in New Hampshire Saturday morning, ripping President Obama for telling supporters that "voting is the best revenge." "Vote for revenge? Let me tell you: Vote for love of country," Romney said to cheers.  Obama made the remark at a Friday rally after supporters booed Romney. “No, no, no. Don't boo. Vote,” Obama told a crowd in Springfield, Ohio. “Voting is the best revenge.” The GOP nominee jumped on the comment later that day, and his campaign released an ad attacking the president for it Saturday morning. The Obama campaign said Saturday that the president's comment was...

    ICYMI, on the campaign trail on Ohio on Friday, the president had just a few choice words about why people should get out and vote in response to rally-goers booing at the mention of Mitt Romney. Obama Says Voting Is The Best Revenge I won’t even waste a facepalm on this swing-and-a-miss, but I have to wonder: What, exactly, was the president thinking here? (I think it’s safe to guess that that was not on the teleprompter.) I realize it was meant to be a casually funny, throwaway remark, but when you’ve run such a doggedly negative campaign and people...
  • DIVORCE AGREEMENT

    Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al: We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way....

    The latest story concerning the US taking China of the list of Human Rights violaters has done it for me, that, our current President, McCain, everything. I have lost the love for my country, I can no longer muster any, nor do I care to even try. My country no longer exists. Goodbye America, you forge ahead headlong into destruction, I just don't care. I'm going to spend my time with my family and forget all this crap. Game over new world order, you won. I'm going to go delete my user id, if the system does not let you...
