As anyone who saw it knows by now, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s speech at the Republican National Convention tonight was electrifying, eloquent, and appropriately tough.
At long last, someone had the guts to drop the political correctness and point out that Barack Obama, while smart and eloquent, does not have the …
This incisive piece by Philip Klein in this week’s American Spectator online outlines the evidence that Barack Obama considers terrorism a problem for traditional law enforcement, and favors a pre-911 approach to tackling this cancer.
That such an approach was on its face a colossal failure, as evidenced by September 11, seems not to concern …
Barack Obama just delivered his requisite pro-Israel speech to delegates of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) at the annual policy conference, an important moment on the cusp of his ascension as the Democratic nominee for President of the United States.
Senator Obama certainly cleaned up his act since last year, when he displayed extreme …
Today the networks are echoing what I heard from Pennsylvania Democrats last week: a discernible number who voted Hillary were swayed by Obama’s “cling to guns and religion” comments, and why shouldn’t they have been? The comments were insulting and oozed with stereotype, period. If a white …

Just returned from an AIPAC Manhattan Club dinner at which Newark Mayor Cory Booker spoke. He told many inspiring stories about his efforts to revitalize Newark and make it safer. Apparently it is the city with the greatest reduction in crime in 2007.
Those of us who have followed Mayor Booker’s career know his ascension is …
To my piece than ran in yesterday’s Jewishworldreview.com concerning Senator Barack Obama’s high tolerance for negativity towards the United States, I would like to add one thought. Senator Obama has known Pastor Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. for many years. They have a close personal relationship, and are far from enemies.
Presumably they discuss, or at …

Note: Writing this post helped this Pennsylvania girl — me — to lighten up in the midst of a contentious campaign season. I hope it provides a few laughs.
Dear Barack,
Since you have got BIGGER and BETTER things to do than speak with me in …
