Election Season 2014

And it has brought us to this trainwreck called ObamaCare and we have bankrupted our kids and grandkids!

We are now headed into the 2014 Election Season and common sense and conservatism are on the rise. Please stand-up and be counted!

The Founding Father's Real Reason for the Second Amendment

And remember the words of Thomas Jefferson "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."

The Latest on Sarah Palin - Part II

Rush, Levin, Beck, Coulter react to Sarah Palin's resignation

Last Friday, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has announced her resignation.

Conservative pundits everywhere were left scrambling to read the entrails, and opinions were all over the place. Some called Palin's "strategy" "brilliant", while others pronounced glumly: it's over. "She won't be back."

The awkwardly timed announcement caught talk radio hosts and many pundits off guard, with lots of show hosts either on vacation for the Independence Day holiday, running evergreen July 4th shows, or they were already off the air for the day.

Ann Coulter responded on the web (and, interestingly, name checked a few of her fellow conservative media stars in the process):

It’s a weird Washington insider perspective to be perplexed by what she’s doing. Contrary to Mark Sanford’s e-mails to his mistress, no one was really impressed with him; 99.99999999999999999% of Americans didn’t know who he was. Who is more influential: Rush Limbaugh, Matt Drudge and Bill O’Reilly, or Tim Pawlenty, Bobby Jindal and Mark Sanford (before the fall)? As Palin said, God bless people who run for political office, but – and she didn’t say this part – she’s too big to be a lame-duck governor stuck dealing with fishing licenses in Anchorage right now.

Glenn Beck reacted on Twitter:

True about Palin dropping out and stepping down. GOOD. Get out of the system. Be a CREATIVE extremist as MLK said. Many write: Palin is done. U don't understand EVERYTHING is about to change. What you thought you knew, could trust or depend on is shiftingn reading Palins speech again. SHE is going to be a force.GOP-be afraid. Very Afraid. There will be only one standing in the end. I'll bet on her.

Mark Levin was able to react on the air:

The ever intrepid Radio Equalizer, Brian Maloney, meanwhile, went straight to the top: he scored an EXCLUSIVE three-minute phone interview on the subject of Sarah Palin, with Rush Limbaughhimself:


In addition, Karl Rove, who admits he is a Palin fan, told Fox News’Chris Wallace on Sunday, Republican leaders are perplexed by Palin’s decision because “if she wanted to escape the ethics investigations and save the taxpayers money, she’s now done that, but it . . . sent a signal that if you do this kind of thing to a sitting governor like her, you can drive her out of office.” Nor, Rove said, is she going to be able to escape media attention: “If she thinks somehow that she’s going to be able to protect her family against the kind of things that she’s suffered over the last couple of months from David Letterman and others, and seek a role of leadership for effective change for our country, as she said in her speech, she’s not going to be able to do it." Rove also said that he questions how politically savy this move is, and that because of this move, her time will no longer be her own and she will be pulled in every direction without an excuse, like being Governor and being too busy, now that she has resigned.

Ron Kessler chief Washington correspondent for NewsMax.com says, "In contrast to the self-confidence and sunny demeanor that won over so many, Palin has become a sulking, suspicious diva. Quitting the governorship with 18 months left in her term only confirms that impression. Moreover, given that one of the knocks against her was lack of experience, Palin needed all the experience as governor she could get. In short, Palin seems to have lost what so many of us admired her for — her nerve.

Bill O'Rielly says he can understand where Palin in coming from and feels he could sell her as a candidate.
