Taking His Measure

Posted on March 15th, 2010

by STEPHEN YATES AND CHRISTIAN WHITON Observing anti-Americanism around the globe in 1967, Ronald Reagan lamented in a speech: “We tried to buy love in the world when we should have been earning respect.” It is an admonition President Obama is predisposed not to heed — and the American people have noticed. As a result of [...]

Preview: Solid Principles Podcast 24

Posted on March 2nd, 2010

On our next upcoming Podcast (Episode 24), Solid Principles spoke to Ari David, Republican Candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives 30th district, California.  Ari has taken up the task of challenging Rep. Henry (Cap & Trade) Waxman.  As Ari is 38, it dawned on me the notion of ‘Generation X’ is now entering the political arena. [...]

Political Cartoons

Posted on February 25th, 2010

Kudos to Michael Ramirez, one of THE BEST political cartoonists in the business for creating this cartoon on the same day of the Health Care Summit. He obviously didn’t have much time to come up with just the right idea and just the right art work to say in one cartoon what Obama couldn’t say [...]

Worse than Awful

Posted on February 25th, 2010

We have something awful right now:  four years of Obama’s incompetence and socialism.  If conservatives of all parties don’t start pulling the rope in the same direction, we will have something worse:  four more years of Obama’s incompetence and socialism.  Please take the time to read Mr. Wright’s brilliant analysis of our current political milieu.  [...]

Romney’s McCain Endorsement

Posted on February 24th, 2010

I received this article from an email feed that I receive from the FEDERAL WAY CONSERVATIVE. Jonathan Gardner wrote pretty much the same article that I would have written, with the exception of my adding that Romney’s endorsement of McCain is not the end of Western Civilization as some Romney supporters seem to feel, but [...]

Ungovernable? Nonsense.

Posted on February 20th, 2010

A corrupted system of taxation? Reagan worked with liberal Democrat Bill Bradley to craft a legislative miracle: tax reform that eliminated dozens of loopholes and slashed rates across the board — and fueled two decades of economic growth. Later, a highly skilled Democratic president, Bill Clinton, successfully tackled another supposedly intractable problem: the culture of [...]

At CPAC, a New Conservative Order

Posted on February 18th, 2010

Since Richard Nixon was president, the Conservative Political Action Conference has provided the American Right with an annual occasion for self-evaluation. On Thursday, when some 10,000 activists gather in Washington for this year’s conference, they will find themselves part of a conservative movement significantly different than it was during the Bush administration, or even in [...]

Reagan 1976/Romney 2008 Revisited

Posted on January 25th, 2010

Here is an excerpt from an article by Jordan Sekulow where he touches on a theme of mine that dates back to February 2008. This is when Mitt Romney withdrew from the Primary race for the Republican presidential nomination. Many Romney supporters where understandably depressed on hearing the news and thought that all was lost [...]

Obama raced clock, chaos, comedy for climate deal

Posted on December 20th, 2009

Here is a story from the Associated Press that is being carried by breitbart.com. It is both fascinating and worrisome. I have been saying for months, both in my commentary on this blog, as well as on our podcasts, that when our enemies abroad get the sense that an American President is weak, they move [...]
