I think that the GOP National Committee and cronies don't believe that a conservative can beat Obama, thus they have settled for a moderate. A true conservative Republican would certainly bring out the vote of the "silent majority." Romney is better than Obama, but not the best the conservatives have to offer.

Support Governor Walker
I do not normally put these on my site. However, it is VERY IMPORTANT that we support Governor Walker. The welfare of our country depends on it in the long run.

 The new Rasmussen Reports poll is out for the Wisconsin RECALL election, and it shows that we have a major challenge on our hands. 52% of respondents in Wisconsin SUPPORT the RECALL against Gov. Scott Walker, while just 47% OPPOSE the RECALL. Friends, we have our work cut out for us if we are going to DEFEAT the RECALL.  The bottom line is this: we must turn these poll numbers around. That's why we're releasing our 2nd new TV ad today to DEFEAT the RECALL, and why we will be in Green Bay next week filming even more TV ads. We have to raise a lot of money to pay for these ads. And that's why we are launching another $100,000 Money Bomb to DEFEAT the RECALL starting right now, and need your help. Please, make a contribution to our campaign to DEFEAT the RECALL - HERE. We'll also be publishing a Heroes List of those who contribute $250 or more to help us reach this goal.  As always, if you prefer you can mail in a contribution to our headquarters: Campaign To Defeat ObamaP.O. Box 601684Sacramento, CA 95860-1684 Thanks so much everyone for your help and support. We're going to win this fight, we're going to DEFEAT the RECALL, and we're going to stop Barack Obama from getting Wisconsin's 10 Electoral Votes. Share this with your friends on Facebook, Twitter & More!    |
What Would Nixon Do?
What Would Nixon Do?
About Iran, that is.
I keep thinking in this context about my old boss and friend, Richard M. Nixon. Obviously, he had serious problems on the domestic side. But in foreign affairs, he was a wizard… got our prisoners back from North Vietnam, ended the war there, opened relations with China that basically encircled Russia and ended the Cold War, signed the first strategic arms limitation treaty with the Soviet Union.
As he said he would do, he left us with "a generation of peace."
What would RN do about Iran? Well, he's been gone now for eight years, so it's just an educated guess, but here it is.
Richard Nixon above all did not like to see America pushed around. He responded strongly when he felt we were being pushed around -- with bombing, especially. He also did not like to see our allies being pushed around. That's why he sent a lot of highly advanced aid to Israel roughly 40 years ago during the Yom Kippur War to save Israel when things were looking bad. Then peace came between Israel and Egypt.
I think he would do the same now. He would say to Israel, "Look, you have an existential threat. You are our closest ally on the planet. We will let you use our refueling apparatus to get you to the nuclear bomb making sites in Iran. We will let you use our super satellite imaging to find the right spots to hit. We will lend you our superb anti-ground to air missile defense systems. Not only that, but we will let the world know we are doing this. The Europeans will complain, but they always complain. We won't be pushed around by the Mullahs and we won't let you be destroyed. If show and tell doesn't work, we'll be behind you in the UN after you do the bombing.
"Strength works. After strength, we'll use diplomacy. That's when diplomacy works best."
And that might just do it. Richard Nixon made many mistakes, but he was a superstar in war and peace. What would Richard Nixon do? What makes for peace in the long run, which is sometimes action in the short run.
Or, I could be wrong.
