There has been a lot of talk about potential running mates over the last couple of weeks. Many people have speculated on who would sit next to Hillary if she were to win the nomination. I can’t help but wonder if a Clinton – Clinton ticket might be a possibility.
Most people believe that […]

If you aren’t afraid of the direction our country is headed, then maybe you should do jury duty.  That’s been my blessing for this week.  Yesterday was the briefing - letting us know what would be expected, what part we would play, and giving us a chance to bow out.  Some of the potential jurors […]

Not only did the judge declare a mistrial in the Phil Spector trial, but it has been going on forever.  In the same amount of time, we have had several murder trials in our local courts, most only stretching out to one or two weeks.  Is it the California jurors who make the justice system […]

First it was FEMA, now it is the Clinton campaign, so I can’t help but wonder how many other politicians are trying to deceive the public.
(Could you hear the sarcasm?)
Why is it a shock that people are planting questions?  I’m going to bet it has happened for many, many, many years - pretty much since […]

Mike Huckabee wants more taxes.  Rudy Giuliani wants more illegal aliens.  Fred Thompson wants more abortion rights.  It seems that for every candidate out there, some person or paper or website is calling one issue against them.  What is a voter to do?
Is it possible, in today’s atmosphere of more information more of the time, […]

Fred Thompson got into the 2008 Presidential Race later than any other candidate (at this time), but he isn’t beating the trail like the other guys.  It’s hard to figure out his strategy.  On the one hand, he has such an incredible presence when he does interviews or debates (although his appearance on Meet the […]

Politics is messy.  It is not the way it was originally set up.  It is not the way it was ever designed.  It is what the “system” has morphed itself into – one big, sticky, muddy, yucky mess.
Every now and then, I’ll catch my ten year old watching the news or reading the paper.  It […]

There is not a single candidate out there that truly represents my thoughts and feelings.  Some are getting closer – each debate crosses the divide a little more.  Some are getting farther from my view. 
Mike Huckabee has made the most progress.  He is strong in his debate skills, willing (and often eager) to go […]

During gym (PE) one day in Junior High, a nurse came to the locker room.  She took our down our weight and height, gave us an eye exam, and checked our spines to make sure they were growing straight.  The results were sent home to our parents.
Today, parents get bent out of shape when this […]

The United States Government is fighting against Texas over a convicted rapist.  Even after I get the facts, I still don’t get it.  Here is a guy who is breaking our laws just by being here.  To top it off, he rapes and kills two young girls (with the help of his other gang members) […]
