What’s that you say? “Assault weapons” (whatever that means) are rarely used, and most of the guns are illegally acquired?

Nobody wants to embrace the arsonist that’s been burning down their house…just the contrary. Initial human-nature suggests ‘stringing him or her up’ by his or her ‘unspeakables.’
But when the number of arsonists equal or exceed our own, that’s hardly a viable option. And where would we find enough string?
Contrary to popular belief, ‘kindness’ is not weakness, nor is it acquiescence… it is the first step of a successful diplomat on any path to victory.
We’re starting to see folks who’ve traditionally voted Democrat (not the hopeless hard-left freak variety), that for the first time are ‘beginning to pay attention’ to our

Watching President Obama’s inaugural, I was confused. It looked like a new king was being crowned. Thousands cheered, like subjects worshipping nobility. At a time when America faces unsustainable debt and terrible economic troubles, why such pomp?

Logic and common sense are foreign languages to the sheeple. The sheeple are people who have become mesmerized under Obama and the Liberal/Progressive/Socialist spell. This includes all the low information voters who blindly follow anyone who gives them goodies and the well-intentioned empath who, for whatever reason, does not understand that progressives do not truly help the less fortunate.
Then we have the leaders; from low-level ranks to the true puppet masters. They know what is going on. As they rise in power from the low levels to puppet masters, their insidiousness rises with them.

Not since the 1970’s have the American people felt so discouraged about the prospects for the nation in general and their individual economic circumstances in particular. For most of American history the notion of having a job, doing something productive for your family and your community was the norm. Barack Obama is seeking to rapidly change that, and he got a good head start during his first term. The President has doubled the number of people on food stamps and he gutted Bill Clinton’s (grudging) welfare reform. That’s his version of Supply Side Economics, he supplies the benefits and people

Justice Sotomayor came to San Francisco and inadvertently made the case that affirmative action terribly unfair — and, moreover, that people are right if they believe, not that it gives qualified minorities a chance, but that it handicaps non-minorities at the expense of any minorities, qualified or not.

All the talk lately is about talking. Tune in to any conservative outlet, and you’ll see that the politicians and thinkers are scratching their heads, trying to figure out how to get voters to support conservative values. Conservatives are talking about their lack of a clear narrative. Conservatives have an ideology, and a good one at that, but ideologies don’t sell. It’s the stories about those ideologies that sell.

When I was a teenager I was a fan of the Mary Tyler Moore Show. I even followed her friend Rhoda Morgenstern when she moved to New York from Minneapolis to start her own show called, well, Rhoda. Rhoda, played by Valerie Harper, was always looking for a man. In New York she found him.
Joe, played by David Groh, was divorced with a ten year old son, but he and Rhoda hit it off. Before the first season was over, Rhoda and Joe got married. I´m told that the episode of the wedding was one of the highest rated television

The newest efforts to ban guns being undertaken by Democrats and President Obama demands response and the National Rifle Association isn´t lying down on the job. But is the NRA´s media strategy working? For about a week after the murders of 26 school children and teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, the NRA was sensiblyand respectfullysilent over the incident. But after allowing a suitable time to go by to allow some grieving to take place, the NRA came out swinging with a few ideas on what to do about guns, one of which was to place armed guards
