Cutter Loose

The past month we’ve been hearing from Obama’s lieutenants, including Secretary of State Clinton, UN Ambassador Rice, Press Secretary Jay Carney, DNC Chairwoman Schultz and campaign functionaries David Axelrod and Stephanie Cutter. Others have been speaking as well, but these six with the president are the spin-doctors I most want to lambaste. The issue, and national tragedy, was the Benghazi massacre on September 11,...

Rank Amateurs

When Wall Street melted down, causing our economy to sputter and die, I kept waiting to hear who was responsible? What particular bank. Industry or government program was the primary culprit behind the debacle? Nothing. Weeks went by, then months and years, and we’re still debating what happened. No one stepped forward to admit their error or stupidity, no government officials did mea culpas about underestimating impacts,...

Grand Bargain: He states we’re all in agreement we need a grand bargain to get out of this mess. Not true. No Compromise: He states both parties seem to have concluded no compromise is possible.

2nd Letter/Rebuttal to Ben Stein

I highlighted these in my letter of 8/16 (encl) addressed to you, care of Young America’s Foundation, accompanied by my contribution to that body. Please understand I’m not mad or even perturbed. I love that you love your dog and this country. You’ve proven this...

Letter/Rebuttal to Mr. Ben Stein

Mr. Stein, I am happy to support your wonderful organization, and have done many times before. I applaud your involvement with them. I know you are an intelligent man and yes, you are a lawyer, economist, writer, author, speaker, comedian, humorist and many more things of which I am unaware, perhaps such as roving statesman, envoy at large, world’s greatest husband and so on. I’ve enjoyed watching and reading you over the...

Letter to Dr. William Bennett

Dr. Bennett, Enclosed please find my contribution to the Claremont Institute. I’ve been a member for many years, and contribute when I can. I also give to the Heritage Foundation, CATO Institute, Hudson Institute, Hillsdale College, Americans for Prosperity, Accuracy in Media and many, many more. I’m a conservative first, before being a republican, and I can’t agree with many of the pronouncements/policies emanating...
