When I repeatedly denounced George W. Bush’s doubling of the size of government during the last election, Republicans had one primary defense of their president: “Bush kept us safe.” Indeed, little else seemed to matter to most Republicans at the time, as the party rallied around their leader, his record and a GOP presidential nominee who ran on a virtually identical platform. The War on Terror trumped all else, Republicans insisted, as the party devoted itself fully to the Warrior in Chief—who also happened to be one of the most …

Thomas Jefferson said, “I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.” After watching the reaction of countless Americans to the news that Osama Bin Laden was successfully assassinated, I remain mildly nauseous. Not since the Carter administration have I been so embarrassed of my country. In spite of our technological superiority, we are nothimg more than a third world country, filled with unsophisticated xenophobes.
sophistication: character, ideas, tastes, or ways as the result of education, worldly experience,
How many times have I …

On September 11, 2001, Osama bin Laden declared war on the United States. In response, the United States declared war on Bin Laden. This week, after ten long years: We got ’em. Al-Qaeda’s top terrorist is dead, the nation rejoices, and the families of the victims of 9/11 are finally getting some much needed closure.
So, hopefully, is America. For the last decade, virtually our entire Middle Eastern policy revolved around 9/11. This was true for both critics and champions of American foreign policy. If war opponents dared to ask …

I’m not much of one for conspiracies, and I never payed much mind to the Birther crowd. Anyone who knows me personally or even is a regular subscriber to this website can attest to that. From time to time I watch a good conspiracy for its entertainment value, but for the most part I believe they alienate people and drive people away from the real issues at hand, especially when surrounding the topics of politics.
Although I am not much of a conspiracy theorist I do not just right off …

During the 2008 election, Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul said that our constant military intervention in the Arab world was the primary motivation behind terrorist acts like 9/11. Why did Paul say this? Because Osama Bin Laden said it. Because the 9/11 Commission report said it. Because CIA intelligence said it, even inventing the term “blowback” precisely to describe it. Yet, when Paul explained this, fellow candidate and eventual Republican nominee John McCain excoriated the Texas congressman and suggested that he was indirectly giving aid and comfort to the enemy, …

Billionaire, reality TV star and possible 2012 presidential contender Donald Trump has been saying many things as of late, as his mix of Obama-bashing and Birtherism continue to excite a portion of the Republican base. But despite much silliness, Trump actually has said something vitally important: “George Bush gave us Barack Obama… If it weren’t for George Bush, we wouldn’t have Barack Obama. So I’m not thrilled with George Bush.”
For conservatives, this is unquestionably the most important message to remember heading into 2012.
While most conservatives will now admit to not …

Apparently there is some concern that the American government will turn off the lights shortly after midnight, tonight. (April 8th, 2011) According to MarketWatch , “Government operations are now running on a stopgap bill that expires at midnight Friday, and federal employees would be furloughed, museums would close and processing of federally backed loans would halt without a new funding bill. The Federal Reserve and U.S. Postal Service would stay open and current Social Security recipients would keep getting their checks.”
Be still, my heart! The Federal government will cease to …

On March 19, 2011, the eighth anniversary of the Iraq War, Barack Obama started the Libyan War. Those who might claim that it was not the President, but Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi who started this war, ignore that it only became our fight the moment Obama decided to intervene. Those who support our bombing of Libya to enforce a no-fly zone claim that these actions will not lead to a larger or more entrenched conflict. This claim not only contradicts most of America’s foreign policy history, but proves that …

As the Tea Party continues to set its sights on astronomical and unsustainable government growth, Republicans have been eager to sing the movement’s tune. Promising to cut spending and balance budgets, the GOP’s newfound right-wing fiscal rhetoric has been characterized by mainstream pundits as a once “respectable” Republican Party kowtowing to conservative “extremists” for whom the debt crisis continues to represent the one and only crisis.
But mainstream defenders of America’s economic status quo can rest easy. Washington’s political establishment has nothing to fear from the Republican Party. Though good at …
