Romney is the Republican version of John Kerry

It was mentioned in the humorous video I posted earlier, but the Republicans spent all of 2004 criticizing John Kerry for flip flopping, and now one of our front runners is Mitt Romney, a flip flopper of at least the same caliber as Kerry. Joseph Farah lists a few of the Romney flip flops at [...]

Vote Fred Thompson — Unless you hate children and puppies

I’ll be out of town for a few days, but I wanted to share this video before I go.

No show of hands

This is awesome: Fred leads the way and won’t let the obviously biased moderator get away with it. Update – Here’s what Fred’s campaign has to say: Running for President is serious business. We’re facing pressing issues like national security, bankrupt entitlements, a broken tax code, and out-of-control judges. So what did the liberal moderator [...]

Words of wisdom from el Rushbo

Should we vote our convictions, or should we vote for electibility? A caller asked Rush this question, and here’s how he responded: CALLER: Okay, I appreciate the opportunity to talk to you again. My question is, since I have to send in my absentee ballot early, I don’t want to throw away or waste my [...]

I’ve changed my mind on Huckabee

People say that Huckabee is not a fiscal conservative. I’m not so sure he is a social conservative, either: Mr. Huckabee’s record of being soft on convicted criminals is harder to avoid. His role as an ordained Southern Baptist minister appears to have guided his actions when it came to forgiving criminals. “I would not [...]

From the AP: Republican Fred Thompson, son of a used-car salesman, remembers his years before law offices, Hollywood and the Senate. “Well, let’s see,” he said. “I’ve worked in a factory, I was a bouncer at my uncle’s drag strip, I worked at the post office, I sold children’s shoes, I sold ladies’, I sold [...]

Rush Limbaugh had some more words of praise for Thompson on his show yesterday.

Republican YouTube debate

Not being in the US, I’m unable to watch most of the televised debates, but I was able to watch the YouTube debate. The biggest thing that struck me was how unpresidential Rudy seems. He seems like a small, small man. I don’t know what people see in him. He should not be the frontrunner. [...]

Should evangelicals support Mitt Romney?

I’ve seen several evangelical opinion columnists endorsing Mitt Romney lately. Personally, I don’t care that he’s Mormon. However, the timing of his “conversion” to the conservative cause is just too suspect. If he had made his conversion and run for president several years later after developing a strong social conservative record I’d have no qualms [...]

Fred’s in…finally

Fred Thompson is going to announce his bid for the presidency on September 6. Will he be able to meet the high expectations people (including myself) have of him? We’ll soon find out. Mike Huckabee doesn’t think so, but I’m starting to have some doubts about Huckabee, too, with his tax-and-spend record and nanny state [...]
