The End of Amtrak Joe
Politics aside, Joe Biden has demonstrated a quality that I have long admired him for. That is his daily 90 minute commute back and forth from Delaware to Washington DC and the reasons he did it.On December 18, 1972, shortly after winning his Senate seat, Biden's first wife, Neilia Hunter and his one year old daughter were killed in a traffic accident. His two young sons, Beau and Hunter, were critically...
Obama: Chicago Politics plus Clintonites Equals Conservative Dream?
CTFor two years, from campaigning to President-elect, the Obama platform and objectives have remained an enigma which has been entirely ignored by his supporters and queried, with no success, by his opposition. There has been nothing to examine except supercilious speeches about “change” and “hope” and some very questionable associations. Starry-eyed Progressives and a hyper liberal media bent on making history refused a vetting process of President-elect Obama by their own, or anyone for that...

Conservatism: A Tale of Two Cities
CTCross posted at Conservative BadlandsAs Conservatives we are at a juncture, many of our own brood are calling for the Evangelical Right to be the fattened calves of this election loss and offered up to the altar for sacrificial repentance. The question that I have, when in the course of this election did they (i.e. Evangelical Conservatives) become the boogey men, it was not really an issue with anyone. Except, when the election was obviously lost, those on our side who are practitioners of...

I am very interested in what people think about current events, political philosophy, etc. and I am a proponent of commentary, both positive and negative. Unfortunately, either due to lack of writing style or just sheer stupidity of topic choices I don’t get much feedback. But I do digress.The point is what people are looking for; many of my hits as of late have been concerning Obama conspiracies. Nary...
Conservative Exile to the Badlands
CTCross posted at Conservative Badlands.It was in the Badlands of North Dakota that Theodore Roosevelt found himself. It was the influence of those rugged and vigorous Americans living the frontier life that helped him shed his Eastern snobbery and intellectual elitism. It was this practical lifestyle that defined the balance between his mind and spirit. It was this place that helped him become President.This was the inspiration for the name of this particular blog (i.e. Conservative Badlands)...

Rumor: Newt Gingrich running for RNC Chair. Reality: Why not?
CTThere seems to be a little bit of a rumor developing on the Conservative blogs that Newt Gingrich is going to make a run at the RNC chair. After searching for the beginning of the rumor, hoping to find a practical source of information to clarify, the search ended up back where it started. An article on Digital Journal, with no substantiating links or visible resources listed. Obviously based on hear say and conjecture, this theory does have a practical side to it. Gingrich had expressed interest...
