So It Begins...
If they vote against it, be glad that you have a real Republican for a legislator.
Arkansas's Conservative Blog
Those of you who have read Arkansas Times blog threads about abortion know that liberals freely suggest that crime is lower because certain people are aborted... I haven't once seen any condemnation by any liberals of comments like this.Hillary is insulting the Secret Service and the U.S. military who would never let a First Lady and First Daughter into a situation like she described. Turns out she was lying. I notice that Brantley, a long-time shill for the Clintons, hasn't said a word about the biggest news of the day.
He has decided to trot out some of his first anti-war propaganda in a while, which is a few years out of date.
U.S. News offers an interesting glimpse into the economics of why fluctuations of the dollar and oil are linked.
If you haven't read Aaron Burkes' plea for reason, then do so immediately. I greatly regret his retirement. He's one of a handful of Republican legislators with unshakeable convictions. Here's the link.
If you have to import workers to stop outsourcing, then what difference does it make?
Knowing that Barack Obama has 20 years in an anti-American, racist church makes a lot of things make sense, such as his refusal to wear an American flag pin, his wife's statement that now is the first time in her life that she's proud of her country...
We know Max reads the Politico because he posted the story about Obama's racist pastor with links to the Politico. So it's fair to say that he's ignoring their story that public support for our overwhelming success in Iraq is soaring.
The Governator has been pushing a radical environmental agenda on the people of California while commuting to work in a private jet.One question: How do you go to a church like this if you don't agree with this hate-filled, racist message?
The administrators who suspended the evil junior high student and stripped him of his honors and titles have rescinded their decision. Talk about getting their hand caught in the cookie jar. This is the kind of tyranny that occurs when the government tries to tell people how to live their lives. These tyrants need to lose their jobs, though. This cannot be allowed. They punished a kid for being a kid. They need to be punished. This is more liberalism run amok.Apparently the formula for conservative, small government republicanism is to appease liberal, big government Republicans... Brilliant.
Here's the link.
8th grader, "Michael Sheridan was stripped of his title as class vice president, barred from attending an honors student dinner and suspended for a day after buying a bag of Skittles from a classmate."
The RPA scored a point against U.S. Senator Mark Pryor, D, forcing him to give away some of the money donated to his campaign by New York Governor/John Eliot Spitzer, after Spitzer was caught in a prostitution scandal. It's nice to see the RPA taking some action. Too bad they didn't get someone to run against Pryor.This is all part of an overall pattern of corruption by democrats, including the DPA's tacit approval of having Molester Dwayne Dobbins as an elected democrat.
Here's the link.
I'd like to take this opportunity to recognize real leadership. Sen. Bob Johnson, D-Bigelow, is holding firm in his commitment to oppose this or any tax.
People complain about the value of the dollar falling as the euro climbs. What many don't know is that the European banking system has been propping it up, causing the currency to deflate, which has made the dollar's slide appear far worse than reality. The attempt to inflate the value of the currency is designed to get foreign countries to shift their reserves from the dollar, which could be devastating for the dollar and a boon for the euro.
A professor at a large college had some exchange students in the class. One day the professor noticed one young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt. The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist regime.
Dwayne Dobbins, D-North Little Rock, who resigned his seat in 2005 after he admitted to sexually assaulting a minor, has refiled after his wife held the seat for him.
Rep. Steve Harrelson, D-Texarkana, is proposing something I've always thought was a good idea. I don't know if any are used for this purpose in Arkansas, but I see lots of cameras on stoplights. He's proposing to make it illegal to use them to issue tickets. I am glad to say that's a great idea. I hope he proposes it in the next session. He has a writeup about it on his blog, Under the Dome.
I came across this story the other day that Arkansas businesses are tightening the belt in preparation for a possible slowdown in the economy. Do we hear the government talking about tightening its belt?
I don't see Harry Bellafonte, Cindy Sheehan, or Sean Penn condemning their idol communist Hugo Chavez for bringing South America to the brink of war, but it's happening. Chavez just can't seem to get along with his neighbor, Colombia. All this is in response to the death of a marxist rebel. Chavez is teaming up with one of his proteges, Rafael Correa, the leftist president of Ecuador.
Nestle has announced that it is expanding its frozen food operations in Jonesboro. It's high time that we raise the frozen food severance tax on this upstart. You'd think they'd know better than to try to be successful in this state without asking permission first.
New research has led to the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science. The new element, Governmentium (Gv), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.
The following is a letter I've received from several sources. It's from Rep. Shirley Walters, RINO-Greenwood, wife of Bill Walters, who has announced for her seat as a democrat. Aside from being a rambling, poorly written letter, it offers an interesting look into her mindset about the importance of party loyalty.
Last week it was "eco-"terrorists, now it's "anti-war" terrorists. The one thing these peace loving terrorists have in common is that they're liberals. How come we don't hear the media talking about how dangerous liberal talk radio is (that one kind of answers itself) and the danger of Left Wing militias and terrorist groups? Because they're not going to try to tie themselves to terrorism like they did with conservative media in the 90s. The fact remains, though, that there are homegrown terrorists in America and they're liberals.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
I told you earlier that term limited State Rep. Sid Rosenbaum is playing musical chairs with Pulaski County JP Allen Kerr, who has announced for Rosenbaum's seat. I mentioned that Kathy Lewison, who has previously held the JP seat, isn't going to be happy about Rosenbaum's entrance. Lewison picked up the JP seat after Republican Bill Rush vacated it without notice. There's not much chance that Lewison, a democrat, can beat Rosenbaum in this majority Republican district.
Former State Senator Bill Walters, of Greenwood, who is the husband of term limited RINO State Representative Shirley Walters (District 62), has been ignoring the calls of GOP party leaders, including Congressman Boozman and John Paul Hammerschmidt, who were trying to find out if he was going to run for Shirley's seat. It was assumed that he was, but worries had been raised that he might run as a democrat. Well, it turns out that there's a reason why he was ignoring their calls. Filing records show that Walters has filed for the race, as a democrat.
"With the threat of an economic downturn looming, lawmakers are now asking why Gov. Beebe wants to punish an industry that is having a positive economic impact by creating a record number of jobs with wages over the state average."Unfortunately, I've known a few goobers like this. Thankfully, most of them don't get as far as he has. Wisconsin must be hard up for normal people. To think, this guy could decide who the democrat nominee will be... Well, it's bad either way.
