WEllllllllllllllll, all I have has been dedicated to The Lord, God Almighty.

If He allows you to take it, I suspect He'll demand an accounting that could prove very challenging.

The only person that could stop her is Bill Clinton. I think his display with Chris Wallace was evidence of what's coming. He will never accept the position of 'First Spouse'. Watch and see.

In 1994 in Clinton's second year of his presidency, the Republicans took 54 seats in the House, ending a 40 year Democrat reign.

This is the sixth year of the Bush administration. Check back to see what happened in the 1956 and 1986 House and Senate elections in the sixth year of the administrations of two immensely popular presidents, Eisenhower and Reagan. Their economies were good and we were not engaged in military combat.

It is my opinion that there would have been a traditional sixth year tidal wave of votes for the Dems if John Kerry had not insulted our troops.

I was thinking of sending him a small thank you gift, perhaps some cleaning fluid to freshen his CIA cap, the one he keeps in his briefcase to remind him of his "Nixon ordered" Christmas in Cambodia in "1969," and which he takes out to show witless female interviewers who then unembarrassedly refer to him as "primal john."

This is by no means the "blowout" predicted by the media whores nor is it indicative of a massive shift to the Left.

In Michigan, home of Ann Arbor, the center of sedition in the sixties, the people voted overwhelmingly to end affirmative action. The governor has called in the lawyers to overturn the will of the people. Good luck with that for future Dem elections in Michigan.

Over twenty states rejected same sex marriage and more voted for laws to protect property rights in response to the unConstitutional Supreme Court ruling in the Kelo case.

President Bush did not say what this reporter wrote. He said he welcomed any suggestions on "how to WIN the war in Iraq." Although it would have been more accurate for him to have said that he welcomed suggestions on cleaning up the wolf packs that threatened the first legitimately elected government in the thousands year history of Iraq.

There are a lot of people, mostly women, who think that the illiterate opinions expressed on the TV show "The View" by a group of repulsive, criminally stupid loud- mouths, are all they need to hear to walk into a voting booth and choose the government that Rosie O'Donnell FEELS serves her best.

They proudly declare that they are "Rosie O'Donnell Democrats" and it is my fervent wish that they use their clout to force the Dems to let Miss O'Donnell give the keynote speech at the 2008 Democrat convention, unless George McGovern has already been tapped. Perhaps they can share the podium. ("Send the balloons. Give us the balloons. Where are the g-ddamned balloons?" -- Floor Manager at 2004 Democrat Convention)

Are there stupid, ill-informed people in this country? Yes, as many proportionately as in any other country, and they are not all Democrats.

Are there stupid, self-serving liars and crazies dispensing the "non-news" of the day on TV? Well, think of the content of the news cycles leading up to the election this year: a sick freak obsessed with a dead little girl who alive, made up like a tart, competed in baby beauty pageants, confesses to her murder.

For weeks this truly unpleasant creature was swarmed by TV reporters and cameramen, hundreds of them, pleading and begging for one word, promising small fortunes for exclusive interviews, pressing their hands and faces against the windows of the limousines in which he was carried about like a princeling, while these sick media freaks abased themselves before him. Day after day, night after night.

Then there was the big story of a pathetic turncoat, a lifelong Democrat who became a Republican in order to run in a Republican district in Florida, who sent emails to young congressional pages with intent. Day after day, night after night.

Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame were a big story for a while. What was that about, again? Oh, that's right, together with an avid media, they were going to bring down the Bush presidency, "frog march" the Republicans out of the White House, and "save our Constitution."

When it turned out to be more media rubbish, we were told by Wilson's media enablers, that "it is too complicated for the American people to understand." and they shut it down.

And the person who "leaked" Mrs. Wilson's name to the press, Richard Armitage, an opponent of Bush's war policies, gets a pass from the media and from the obssessed special prosecutor, and nobody will ask Armitage about the men with whom he discussed the "leaking" of Mrs. Wilson's name and how to play it to bring about a Constitutional crisis.

One of the men is still in government service; he graciously hosted a farewell party for another government service person who was involved in "the leak" when that government service person left for a teaching job at Harvard University. But it's really too complicated for you to follow so I shall not tax your brains further.

I think it is a mistake to engage in personal abuse of those with whom we may have to contend in the political arena. Jibes at Mrs. Clinton's physical appearance or her personality or her character may be interpreted by others as a lack of sound reasons for rejecting this woman as president.

Mark Steyn in his exellent book "America Alone" mentions an Arabic proverb: when the camel falls, the knives come out.

The biggest camel has stumbled, the knives are drawn. Will the camel fall?

I know that your excellent post is about more than the media, but certainly one aspect of the current hand-wringing festival is that the media are feeding the notion that this is a rout and a landslide.

As a matter of fact, even before we get to the propositions and the slim margins of victory, this election is more properly understood as a stumble.

Whether the stumble is a minor interruption in a race for victory or the beginning of a fall is up to us.

I used to think Hillary! had no shot, and prayed that she would win the primary, so that she could go down in defeat.

Not anymore, not after the last election. This country has a voting public who, by and large, are not as well educated as your average FReeper with regards to politics and the system. We like to herald the demise of the MSM here on FR (and I do believe it's weakened over the years), but in reality, to the average soccer mom, or your bank teller, or your grocer, or your bar owner or your dry cleaner, or your kid's teacher, or your co-worker, they remain the only source of news. Nowadays, people may go online to read their articles, but that's not really using the Internet as a source, that's just accepting the MSM spin on your own time, instead of at 6:30 PM on the TV.

I don't know how to stop this continual slide into banal materialistic pleasure seeking that is the root cause of our nation's political apathy. People would rather keep up with their fantasy football, or the local gossip at the salon, or vote in their favorite American Idol than actually educate themselves about politics. "It's too much WORK, and they (politicians) are all the SAME anyway, so why bother?", they moan.

I've said this before on FR and got flamed for it. I think Nov 7th proved my assertion though. Until we, as a whole, convince our fellow Americans that it IS more important than fantasy football or American Idol, it's not really going to get much better.

One third of the American colonists remained loyal to the King and to the mother country; one third were completely indifferent; one third supported the independence movement but feared revolution and war with the mightiest military in the world at that time.

Many colonists refused to support Washington's army by selling food or blankets while making a dandy profit selling to the British.

government has no authority to award any journalist, or all of them, any presumption of objectivity. They are not under oath, and they are not subject to laws against perjury.

Excellent reasoning, as always. ;)

Have you ever heard her talk? Have you ever heard her squeal? Not even the MSM can make that squawkbox of hers sound good. I mean, they can dub her with j-lo or something, but I don't think that would work in the long run. The secret might get out.

No, they have to let her voice go out over the airwaves, cableways, and satellite links the way it is. And her own voice will doom her, for sure.

They'll protect her and make her over into St. Joan Of Arc.

When she really is a reincarnation of Eva Peron!

Exactly. We have to find a way to minimize the damage the media is doing.

Good luck with that. If you are ever able to find someone that can get a bunch of conservatives pulling in the same direction at the same time, I'd give 'em a ceegar!

Another poster and I think even one of the popular conservative pundits said we need a charismatic leader to help spread the word of conservatism. Conservatives are at a genetic disadvantage when it comes to word games. If you think about it, even Ronald Reagan(God rest his soul) was not exactly a silver tongued orator although he gave some wonderful speeches. For whatever reasons, Pubbies as well as many Dims held the man in high esteem.

Anyway, I'm convinced liberals/leftists/socialists are wired differently than conservatives. They are the talkers and writers of the touchy-feely, warm and fuzzy, feel good stuff. Their appeal is to the emotions and they are fanatical about it. Conservatives on the other hand are the doers, the producers; hard wired to get things done -- instead of talking it to death. Critical thinkers for the most part and generally not susceptible to the leftists' effluent. I submit about a third of the population. Moonbats make up about a third which leaves about another third that vote but are unattached. These are the "swing" voters who are the real targets, or should be. What appeals to them? Warm and fuzzy? Often I suspect. Hard nosed conservatism? Sometimes. Maybe it's all in the delivery. I dunno.

"Compassionate" conservatism seems to have run its course; or has it? Maybe the delivery became stale. The constant pounding by the DBM and the Dims finally taking its toll?

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I don't know... ;^)

Hi, Pan_Yans Wife! I haven't talked to you in a while...

So sorry about your sister:

My younger sister has said all along that she will vote for Hillary, solely based on the fact that Hillary will be the first woman running for president. I do not underestimate the power of the sentimental vote when it comes to Hillary.

She'll learn. I hope this isn't something she learned from Her Heinous herself. Or maybe I do....

Anyone remember Shirley Chisholm in 1972?

The 1972 Democratic National Convention in Miami was the first major convention in which any woman was considered for the presidential nomination. Although she did not win the nomination, she received 151 of the delegates' votes.

It is my contention that she cannot CONSTITUTIONALLY run for President; she has already served 8 years as "co-president."

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

How about a pic of the guy who ventured 5 times into those dangerous waters??????
