Why isn’t this asked at every single turn right now? Where you at, House Speaker? How bout you, “Democrat nomi-knees”? MSM? Nothing? Not even a little curious? No? Elect a Clown, Expect a Circus. RLTW

The following is a long read but well worth your time. The author is a man of wisdom, integrity and insightful. He has gone to work every day during this tumultuous time in Portland. We owe him a debt of gratitude. ______________ Thanks to all my friends and family who have reached out to me and are concerned about what is going on in downtown Portland. For those who don’t know, I work at the Federal Courthouse in Portland. What is going on here is not what is being portrayed in the media and I want to set the record...

On the ground Downtown 1700 hours.

This post was written in anger and frustration. Angry that we continue to follow the Republican Party’s elite ignorance. A party that continues to pull defeat from the jaws of victory characterized by pompous fools who fulfill the sterotype built by the left. Frustrated that the reality of politics is this: There will be no third party capable of competing with the coalition constructed by the dems. You're living in a dream world if you think that is the way to recover this country. As a result, true conservatives MUST take steps to eradicate the ignorance of the Republican Party...

The proper response for the replay of the "I won" comment that is sure to come in the next "bi-partisan" photo op: O: "Well.....uh....let me just say this: the election is over.......I won" Cantor: "Well, Mr. President, are you the president of the 51% of the population that voted for you or are you the President of the United States of America"? Let the MSM try to hide THAT sound bite. RLTW

Wondering what the current races in the Senate look like nationwide. Are we close? RLTW

That is All. RLTW

Out of curiousity: Is anyone aware of a current successful democrat governor? We hear success stories out of Ohio, Wisconsin (despite Walker's current recall), North Dakota, South Carolina, Louisiana, New Jersey - all with dynamic Republican Governors at the healm. Where are all the success stories from states with democrat governors? Why isn't THIS a talking point wit the RNC? Why are we always playing defense? Just curious.... RLTW

In a news conference, Deanna Favre announced she will be the starting QB for the Packers this coming Sunday. She claims she is qualified to be starting QB because she has spent the past 16 years married to Brett while he played QB for the Packers. Because of this, she understands how to pick up a corner blitz, and knows the terminology of the Packers' offense. A poll of Packers fans shows that 50% of those polled support the move. Does this sounds idiotic and unbelievable to you? Yet, a Democrat presidential candidate makes the same claims as to why...

Last week, while traveling to Chicago on business, I noticed a Marine sergeant traveling with a folded flag, but did not put two and two together. After we boarded our flight, I turned to the sergeant, who'd been invited to sit in First Class (across from me), and inquired if he was heading home. No, he responded. Heading out I asked? No. I'm escorting a soldier home. Going to pick him up? No. He is with me right now. He was killed in Iraq , I'm taking him home to his family. The realization of what he had been asked...

WALTER REED Can't be quiet any longer. The rest of the story! This is from the Chief of Chaplains at Walter Reed. He provides an accurate perspective of the Walter Reed issue. I have had enough and am going to give my perspective on the news about Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Please understand that I am speaking for myself and I am responsible for my thoughts alone. The news media and politicians are making it sound like Walter Reed is a terrible place and the staff here has been abusing our brave wounded soldiers; what a bunch of bull!...

Consider this concept: Rebuilding New Orleans and the Gulf Coast through an initiative I would call The Gulf Coast Authority.

"The U.S. is Doing California Wrong".......whatever.

All:I'm sure this has been posted several times before but, is well worth the review.......and I entertained the concept of posting it under humor....but this fits better. I Am Your Worst Nightmare. I am a BAD American. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some mid-level governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts squirting out babies. I'm not in touch with my feelings and I like it that way, damn it! I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne, Ice-T or Marilyn Manson ...

I AM AN ARMY OF ONE I am the 18-24 year old being targeted by this new marketing concept, the very embodiment of "what's in it for ME." The legacy of the politically correct years. It's okay to be immoral and a pervert, and if anyone tries to mold me too vigorously into a something that resembles a warrior, I'll tell my congressperson! I AM AN ARMY OF ONE Teamwork? My chain of command consists of ME, MYSELF, and I. I'm destined to be a dot-com millionaire. Just give me all that college money, and take it easy on the ...
