What exactly will The Obama do about energy or global warming??? Is he going to drill in ANWR to get us some more oil? Or does he has a super-secret nuclear fusion machine he is going to unveil as his October Surprise to give us all unlimited free fuel?

Obama is a concept. Concepts usually take a few years of testing to actually get into production. This one has never even been put on the road to see if there is an engine under the hood or if the electronics are connected.

She hangs out with too many liberals to be much of a Republican.

The Eisenhower I studied seemed pretty politically liberal. Of course, I was more of a Patton fan. During Eisenhower's administration the top marginal tax rate was 91%. He inherited this high tax rate from the Democrats, but did nothing to change it. He enlarged the Social Security system and started the Interstate Highway System, NASA and the Department of Health, Education and Welfare.

His cabinet was composed of several big businessmen and one union leader, often referred to as "eight millionaires and a plumber." He appointed several conservative judges, but also Earl Warren and William Brennan. In his defense, he later called those appointments the worst mistake of his presidency.

I think as conservatives we tend to think of previous generations being conservative. Although they were sexually, in terms of massive government programs the WWII generation was right up there.

I saw him making some stump speech on C-Span today, complaining about Exxon's profits, saying we needed a national biofuels (boondoggle) policy and complaining about the Iraq war.

Sounded just like Jimmah Carter pretending to be a black man.

“She sounds like a Democrat to me.”

She’s worse. She’s an old northeastern patrician Republican that wants to see this party in permanent backbencher status. This is why conservatives need to wake up and take back control. If you don’t want a conservative party, then follow Lincoln Chaffee to the Democrats.

I’ll take Obama over Hillary any day.

Besides the Republicans are having a wake with McCain. That should be an exciting convention lol.

The republican party has too many RINO’s like Ike’s granddaughter. Just by looking at the candidates we had to choose from you can tell the conservatives don’t hold much power.

"After all, he only became a Republican when he ran for the White House. He never even voted before that! He can hardly be claimed to be Mr. Republican (that was Taft!)."

To be fair he was asked to run under the democrat ticket, but Ike said "No way."

BTW, I'd rather hear who David Eisenhower supports than who this liberal twit woman does. Every family has liberals and conservatives in it. Look at Ronald Reagan's kids. Two kook liberals and a staunch conservative. It's ridiculous for the MSM to think this is "newsworthy".

America's standing in the world

Funny, most American patriots are more concerned with with the world's standding in America.

Now, if she meant that in a Teddy Roosevelt/Great White Fleet way, I might be interested in her opinions.

Vote Obama 08, the Hell Candidate

Good enough for Satan; good enough for YOU!
