The Texas state Senate passed a voter ID bill on Wednesday. It’s legislation with good intentions, but there’s no way it will make it past Obama’s justic department. Opponents of the bill feel that it would discourage many members of minority voting blocks who might not have access to photo ID’s. I say, call their …

(No title)
I love Texas ! I’ve lived here my entire life, so I admit to some built-in bias, but this is a pretty damn good state to live in. Even though I’ve lived here for 30 years, it wasn’t until this past weekend that I made my first trip to West Texas. I must say it …

Policy v. the people
I’m amazed when I hear people describe a politician as being “for the people.” I heard it for 8 years during the Clinton administration and I’m sure people said it during the Kennedy administration, but it’s nothing compare to what I’ve heard regarding Obama. Obama earned his nickname, “The Messiah,” because of the cult of …

The way health care ought to be…
As Barack Obama gathers the greatest minds in health care together, I thought I would share my personal experiences with the medical community in hopes of helping solve the health care crisis. I grew up in rural East Texas, in a town where literally everyone knew your name. I couldn’t wait to get out of …

Obama's health care summit
So Chairman Obama has gathered together members of the medical community and politicans from both sides of the aisle to discuss health care.This is another step towards socialized medicine. If you ever want to know what a business would look like it were socialized, look no further than the post office. I walk into the …

Reagan's work undone
On June 12, 1987, standing in front of the Brandenburg Gate, President Ronald Reagan famously demanded, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,” referring to the Berlin Wall, perhaps the most famous symbol of the divide between freedom and the oppressive reach of the Marxist governments in the Eastern Bloc. Symbolically, this speech represented the triumph …

Good bye T.O.!
Finally, Jerry Jones made a great off season move, getting rid of Terrell Owens. I’ve been conflicted regarding my feelings on T.O. during his brief stint here. I guess I never forgave him for disrespecting the Star. I admire the guy’s talent, but it appears he is losing some of that magic that made him …

The Left's infatuation with Rush Limbaugh
If there is anything more perplexing than Obama’s approval rating, it’s the Left’s infatuation with Rush Limbaugh. While Barack Obama continues to destroy our economy, we learned that his brown shirts have set their eyes on the outspoken radio host. But why? The Left thinks that Americans dislike Limbaugh, that his audience is not representative …

Sugar High
I look at the opinion polls regarding Barack Obama and I’m puzzled, just like I was puzzled when W. was relected President in 2004. I’ve already established that members of both Bush and Obama administrations were masters at spinning fear, but with Obama I think there is an additional element contributing to his poll numbers. …

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother?
I hate collectivism! Any movement that seeks to enforce community standards on a group of people rapes the individual of his most precious gift–his self. For eight years, the nimrods in the Bush administration tried to legislate an extreme version of evangelical Christianity. I am a Christian, an evangelical even, but I don’t want the …
