Why McCain Must Never Become President
Despite predictions to the contrary (including one by this author), John McCain is now almost certain to be the Republican nominee for president. Through a combination of a compressed, winner-take-all, primary system and sympathetic news media, the senator from Arizona has defied the odds. It wasn’t pretty to watch. McCain never got […]
Stop McCain; Rally to Romney
Last month, when asked if he had a preference in the primary season, a liberal Democrat friend of mine said that he did not. To him, all of the Democratic hopefuls were about the same and he could support any of them. Then asked if there was any Republican he could support, he […]
A Better Way to Choose a President
The news coverage of the results of the Iowa caucus and the New Hampshire primary has been hysterical bordering on apoplectic. Watching the Iowa results on Thursday night one would have thought that the event was the national convention rather than the first contest in a small state with only a handful of uncommitted […]
Two States - Too Much
The wait is almost over; Iowa and New Hampshire vote this week and the news media have been hysterical. Adam Nagourney of the New York Times asks “What if Iowa settles nothing for Democrats?”, as though it is the role of a few thousand Iowa caucus attendees to select the nominee, before any […]
The Huckster
Deception and Misrepresentation on the Campaign Trail
Compare the positions from these two 2008 Presidential candidates:
One candidate, a former governor advocated issuing drivers licenses to illegal aliens in his state. He denounced a bill that would deny state benefits to illegal immigrants as un-Christian, un-American, irresponsible and anti-life. He supported a “path to citizenship” for illegal […]
The Next President of the United States will be …
With less than a year to go before the presidential election and just six weeks until the Iowa caucuses, the time has come for election predictions.
At first glance things don’t look good for the Republicans, with G.W. Bush the most unpopular president in US history. Historically speaking, however, the Democrats have problems of their own. […]
Traitor-in-Chief
George W. Bush should be impeached, but not for any of the reasons cited by liberals.
On Friday August 11, Homeland Security Chief Michael Chertoff announced a new initiative to enforce US immigration law and secure the US border with Mexico. In a statement, President Bush called the measures “important” and promised “to take every possible […]
Liar-in-Chief
President Bush now has his own proposal for tricking the American public into accepting an amnesty bill for illegal aliens.
The past six weeks have been busy in the campaign for amnesty for illegal aliens. First came the Kennedy-McCain bill in the senate. Then came the Flake-Gutierrez (STRIVE) bill in the house. Neither bill received a […]
A Plan to Solve Illegal Immigration
It has enforcement and a way for illegal aliens to become US citizens. What’s there not to like?
Like the swallows returning to Capistrano or the return of daylight saving time the annual push for amnesty for illegal aliens is a sure sign of spring in recent years. Criticism of the current proposals is of limited […]
Unfair, Unworkable and Unwise
More Reasons Why the Kennedy McCain Amnesty Bill Must Be Stopped
The dilemma of illegal immigration is multifaceted, complex and fundamental to our status as a sovereign nation. One relevant perspective is that of economic justice: the idea that the people who pay for something should be the ones to benefit from it. The USA is […]
Bad Timing, Bad Policy, Bad Bill
The Kennedy-McCain Amnesty bill is the last thing this country needs right now.
With the stock market tanking and unemployment increasing it seems likely that during the spring of 2007, the US economy will be in a recession. With tens of thousands of Americans losing their jobs, Senators Kennedy and McCain want to import permanently millions […]
