Lesson in Looting?

The more I think about the UN, its inability to do anything meaningful, its constant demand for money from wealthy countries, and the Liberal mindset that we "owe" the world more because we are a wealthy nation, the angrier I get. I hope and pray that the movie version of "Atlas Shrugged" is actually produced and brought to the big screen. The book itself is a massive, preachy tome but worth a read for anyone who has the time and perserverance. For the general population though, if this is properly produced as a movie for the big screen, the impact could be resounding, not only in the US but worldwide. This idea that wealth is endless and those who produce it never tire of giving it up to every government/country who refuses to help itself needs to be answered. Not only answered but answered in an easily understandable, pop culture way. Mind you, I'm not talking about natural disasters and our generosity towards countries in need. I would personally buy Mr. Jan Egeland a ticket for the premier of this movie if/when it debuts on the big screen.

And, speaking of pop culture, I think it's time to let Libs in on a secret... you are no longer the anti-establishment culture. You grey-haired hippies whose best times are far behind you will eventually find that your point of view has become established. You are no longer rebels. You know who are? The young, Conservative youth of this country. The young, family-oriented, back to basics, families who hold good core values, who see the stark reality that kids are better served by having two parents, who educate their kids in religious schools or at home. THEY are fast becoming the rebels of our time. Talk radio and bloggers are now challenging the established "anti-establishment" mindset that was adopted in the 1970s. Anybody at LPAC reading this?... GET A CLUE and get thee behind us, hippies!

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste...

Friday Night with Hugh and Friends

The consummate Conservative host, Hugh Hewitt, and yours truly! Shameless of me to post this, I know; however, I'm too jazzed to care. :-p What a wonderful way to spend a Friday night! After an hour or so wandering through some of the exhibits at the Frazier Historical Arms Museum, I then got to spend three hours with Hugh Hewitt and 599 other fans of his show. I absolutely MUST say that not only was Hugh wonderful and the live show very entertaining, but his fans are absolutely the nicest people! I've seen other radio talk show s done live and mingled with fans of those shows. Hugh Hewitt's fans are the nicest, most down to earth, friendly people I've ever met. It's quite a credit to Hugh that he draws such a fan base. If you haven't been to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum here in Louisville, it's a must-see. The museum shows an amazing artistry with the exhibits and places them in the context of the times in a very entertaining and educationa...

Is conscription the prescription?

US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...
