Swallowing the Marxist Pill

Open wide and say "Ahhhh!" You'll need to stretch your throat over the next week or so. Just in case, you might want to practice swallowing that huge political pill called "change" that Barack Obama says we all need. It won't seem too bad at first but, when the sugar coating is gone, it's gonna be a HUGE pill to swallow. Most likely, it'll get stuck halfway down and be quite uncomfortable for a while. I'm pretty sure it's going to hurt. A lot. The pity of it all will be that we, Americans all, will choke on it knowing that we either (a) brought it on our fellow Americans with our ill-informed vote, or (b) quietly informed ourselves thinking that others must be doing the same, or (c) just stood by and watched it all unfold while burying our savings and our firearms somewhere in the hope that we will be able to ride it out. You, me, our neighbors, our co-workers, our friends -- we will have brought it on ourselves. Whether you vote for Obama or

"Senator Government"

Well, what can you say about McCain's performance in the last of the debates Wednesday night? *sigh* Nothing dramatic, that's for sure. One thing you can say is that he tried. He was more aggressive, more insistent, and not quite as much a pushover as he was in the past two debates. Yep, he tried this time. What I find amusing though is that McCain's best line of the night was a Freudian slip! We Senator McCain addressed Obama as "Senator Government" before quickly correcting himself, it was a laugh-out-loud moment in the ConservaCouple's living room. Well done, Senator Slip... errr I mean, McCain.

McCain had better be McAble tonight

It's showtime in about 30 minutes. Senator McCain, if you or anyone on your staff has been asleep at the wheel recently, you will have missed all of the Conservative voices SHOUTING for you to TAKE OFF THE FREAKIN' GLOVES in the debate tonight. Seriously. If you want to feel the collective force of every Conservative in this nation jumping to their feet and applauding as one, you will choose your moment in tonight's debate carefully and then unleash a rhetorical but massive slap to the facade that is Obama. Not only will you leave him stuttering but you'll wake up the American "undecideds" in the process. We are counting on you tonight. We all know you're a good guy who prefers to avoid conflict but the problem is that people don't understand who Obama really is. They don't see you as much different from him and every other politician on the Hill. Most importantly, Senator, they don't understand that Obama and his Democrat cronies were behind t

Where's ACORN when you need them?

Gee, the one time it would be a really great idea to register at least the Dallas Cowboys football team to vote in a race, where's ACORN?! Uh, yeah, that's right... they're in a lot of hot water . Seriously though, this race is as important as our current Presidential race.

What do you get when...

...one McCurry dates a Shuler for a couple of years? Two McShulers , of course. Now what do you get when one McCurry marries one Shuler? Two Shulers! Greetings from the land of Mr. & Mrs. where the wedding is over and the "happily ever after" has begun! October 4th was an absolutely gorgeous day. We couldn't have been blessed with a more perfect day -- perfect for the three-minute ceremony indoors and for the 7-hour bonfire reception outdoors! Our thanks to the 75+ family members and close friends who came out to celebrate with us. A very big and very special thanks to those of you who gave time, talent, and treasure to create a magnificent wedding for us: With all our hearts, we appreciate and thank my parents, ConservaDude's Dad, Jessica, Bryan, Sean, Michael, and Mike for the time, talent, and treasure they put into providing the scrumptious spread of food, the culinary details that provoked oohs and ahhs at the tables, and the hard work of cleaning up the Sh
