Republicans Had Better Put Hands To The Plow To Win Hispanic Voters »
Jim Clark’s “Gingrich Has Winning Stance On Immigration Issue” (NN&V November 30), is the second article I’m aware of in which Mr. Clark urges Republicans to ignore immigration laws and their party platform in a dubious effort to capture Hispanic-heritage voters. Didn’t the Democrats already beat us to the racial spoils racket? Democrat surrogates MALDEF and La Raza channel Hispanic immigrants into barrios, where they speak only Spanish and collect government benefits. The Democrat party [...]
Grover Norquist Could Give Republicans Lessons In Media Management »
Had Chuck Muth not sent out an alert, I would have missed Grover Norquist, head of Americans for Tax Reform, on “60 Minutes,” Sunday November 20. The interviewer was liberal hit man Steve Croft, who – aided and abetted by editing – chumped many conservatives over the years, including Rush Limbaugh. Norquist, however, acquitted himself brilliantly in what was clearly an attempted hit piece. Croft tried to make the Taxpayer Protection Pledge, a written promise [...]

These educators often remind me of the old saying that; “those who can, do and those that can’t teach.” I have nothing against book learning, but practical experience is best! [...]
Gingrich, The Fed, And A Balanced Budget Amendment »
Gingrich is certainly smart – but nowhere near as smart as he thinks he is. As is the case with Obama, Perry, and so many other candidates, he suffers from what Hayek called the fatal conceit. This is the belief that he is smarter than the marketplace and that he can allocate other peoples’ money more productively than they could do it themselves. Gingrich, like Obama, has great plans for investing your tax money and [...]
Was It A Debate Or An Attack? »
On the night of October 18, 2011 we sadly witnessed a display of mostly children with a few adult moments mixed into the fray. The Republican presidential nomination debate was an example of what a debate should not be. First of all, have these candidates forgotten President Ronald Reagan’s admonition known as his 11th Commandment, “Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.” Is it really so difficult to follow those words of a [...]
