Wow, I didn't realize how long it's been since I posted...chalk it up to the holidays and holiday hangover, I guess.
Lots of ideas running through my head, so here goes...
1. Looks like the RNC chair vote will come down to Michael Steele and Ken Blackwell. I think either will be a credible choice, but neither will be a home run. Problem is, I don;t think there's a home run hitter in the race. Time will tell...
2. Read an incredible article this morning from Chuck Norris about the so-called Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA). First, the bill will be an unmitigated disaster if it passes - abortion on demand at any time. Second, the more I read his stuff, the better I like Chuck and his thinking. I know the kids have a lot of jokes going on about how invincible Chuck Norris is, but we shouldn't let that box him in. Unlike most of his Hollyweird peers, Chuck has something to say that's worth listening to. I suggest giving him a read, whether it be here on Townhall, or his expanded artciles on World Net Daily.
3. Israel and Gaza...'bout time the Isrealis stood up for themselves a little. It's been a while sine the last time they kicked some Arab/Palestinian/Syrian/Jordanian/Egyptian butt...and nobody deserves a beat down more than Hamas. It's ironic how they cry about Israel using their own tactics against them..."How can they just lob rockets into our territory and not worry about the poor civilians - you know, the ones we try to hide behind." And that's the difference...Israel never tries to hide behind their civilians, but rather try to protect them.
4. If you want a good, entertaining read, check out just about anything by Vince Flynn. We could use a few men like Mitch Rapp about now...
5. Why is it that Chrysler was the only one of the Big Three to acknowledge the huge welfare check they got in their presentation at the Detroit Auto Show? Funny how they seem to be the one of the three that's also doing the worst at coming back. First, don't thank us 'cuz we conservatives didn't want to give you the cash to begin with. Second, don't thank us, just focus on your business and get it back to profitability so you can pay us back sooner rather than later.
6. Speaking of the auto show, has anyone seen anything inspiring? I didn't...
That should do it for now...but I'll try to make it less time until the next one. Have a great one!
