Who Are The Real Extremists?

Who Are The Real Extremists?

Posted by | Aug 27, 2012 | |

During an interview with the Associated Press yesterday, President Obama said of Governor Romney (emphasis mine): “What I can say is that he has signed up for positions, extreme positions, that are very consistent with positions that a number of House Republicans have taken. And whether he actually believes in those or not, I have no doubt that he would carry forward some of the things that he’s talked about.” It’s is no surprise Democrats label their opponents extreme because, quite frankly, they can’t debate on the merits of the issues. Let’s start with how laughable it is for...

I am one of those conservatives who view a parallel between the incompetent, failed Jimmy Carter presidency with the current president. Some call Barack Obama incompetent and in over his head, like Jimmy Carter, and I have said as much, but after viewing the great documentary movie 2016, I now think it may be more than just incompetence.  I want everyone reading this post to go see the movie, so I will not give any more details regarding that. Most of the comparison between the Carter and Obama administrations is because of the dreadful economic conditions and high gas...

I absolutely admire the performance in office of Haley Barbour as governor of Mississippi.  Contrast Mississippi’s recovery from Hurricane Katrina with Louisiana’s — both states suffered about the same amount of damage, but MS bounced back further and faster than LA — and you’ll see why governors and the competence of their team do matter. Having said that, I absolutely disagree with Gov. Barbour’s article in National Review yesterday.  He writes in favor of the Marketplace “Fairness” Act (MFA), which would allow states to collect sales taxes on their residents’ purchases across state lines, mostly involving Internet sales.  Local...

This is some really amazing time lapse photography by Colin Rich. The production is fantastic. What sets this apart for me is I usually see time lapse with stationary cameras. This film does some really cool panning and moving as the time moves forward and it creates some very deep and engaging video....
