----by Patrick J Buchanan ------- For 50 minutes, Obama sat mute, as a Marxist thug from Nicaragua delivered his diatribe, charging America with a century of terrorist aggression in Central America. After Daniel Ortega finished spitting in our face, accusing us of inhumanity toward Fidel Castro's Cuba, Obama was asked his thoughts. "I thought it was 50 minutes long. That's what I thought." Hillary Clinton was asked to comment: "I thought the cultural performance was fascinating," she cooed. Pressed again on Ortega's vitriol, Hillary replied: "To have those first-class Caribbean entertainers all on one stage and to see how much was done in such a small amount of space. I was overwhelmed." Thus the nation that won the Cold War, contained the cancer of Castroism in Cuba, liberated Grenada, blocked communist takeovers of Guatemala and the Dominican Republic, and poured scores of billions in aid into this region was left undefended by its own leader...

------by Chuck norris-------A true American Patriot! A couple of weeks ago, Somali pirates hijacked a cargo ship with 20 American crew members on board. Thank God and the Navy SEALs that they all got out alive. But will Americans be as lucky next time?During 2008 alone, these thugs raided more than 130 vessels, resulting in 50 successful hijackings and millions of dollars paid in ransoms. With at least five well-organized pirate gangs off the Horn of Africa -- including the al-Shabab militia, which is a group of Islamic extremists that some people compare to the Taliban -- all seeking and splitting the spoils of these sea traders, isn't it time America better protects our merchant mariners in volatile areas, such as off the Somali coast? Isn't it time they are armed with better deterrents than fire hoses, rubber bullets and sonic weapons? Isn't it time our Navy SEALs reach land and cut pirates off at the pass? Ransoms only enable these hooligans. And negotiations never work...

---------------by Ann Colter---------------------- I had no idea how important this week's nationwide anti-tax tea parties were until hearing liberals denounce them with such ferocity. The New York Times' Paul Krugman wrote a column attacking the tea parties, apologizing for making fun of "crazy people." It's OK, Paul, you're allowed to do that for the same reason Jews can make fun of Jews. On MSNBC, hosts Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow have been tittering over the similarity of the name "tea parties" to an obscure homosexual sexual practice known as "tea bagging." Night after night, they sneer at Republicans for being so stupid as to call their rallies "tea bagging." Every host on Air America and every unbathed, basement-dwelling loser on the left wing blogosphere has spent the last week making jokes about tea bagging, a practice they show a surprising degree of familiarity with. Except no one is calling the tea parties...

Yes, Arizona is alive and well. Something about being around thousands of like minded patriots that really invigorates me. Americans of ALL ages were present and accounted for. It is our children and grandchildren who are really saddled with all this debt after all. Because of the layoff last month, I find myself working several lower paying jobs to try and make ends meet. So I was not able to show up to the event until right about 6:00pm. I have to say that as I was driving past the crowds already gathered on sidewalks and holding signs on corners, I got chills right down my spine. I was pleased to see that Ronald Wilson Reagan was represented. I believe in what he said when he stated that government is not the answer, govt. is the problem. We need to shrink Govt., not grow it! I had an awesome conversation with this lady. She said that she does not like to label herself as anything but an American but feels betrayed by the media and being exploited by Obama for political gain. We ar...

The following is a stump speech for Barry Goldwater given by Ronald Wilson Reagan in 1964. It still gives me goosebumps. Who will be the Reagan of OUR day? Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you and good evening. The sponsor has been identified, but unlike most television programs, the performer hasn't been provided with a script. As a matter of fact, I have been permitted to choose my own words and discuss my own ideas regarding the choice that we face in the next few weeks. I have spent most of my life as a Democrat. I recently have seen fit to follow another course. I believe that the issues confronting us cross party lines. Now, one side in this campaign has been telling us that the issues of this election are the maintenance of peace and prosperity. The line has been used, "We've never had it so good." But I have an uncomfortable feeling that this prosperity isn't something on which we can base our hopes for the future. No nation in history has ever surviv...
