My Own Political Party

I did not vote for Obama because I do not like his politics, however, I am somewhat proud of this country for looking beyond race and voting in a man of color. Will this change race relations in this country? It might, but it will be a long time in coming. There will still be those who believe that a black man is not qualified to be President and there will be those who believe that Obama will somehow ... Read More

Would Obama create more jobs? Not according to Mitt Romney. Romney blames part of the economic downtown on the Democrats: “What caused this downturn was profligate borrowing in the mortgage market. And who’s been pushing that? Democrats and a lot of Republicans. And then, when it came to regulate that borrowing, Republicans wanted to regulate it and reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Democrats said no, just hand out the money. That’s what caused this downturn.” Of course, I wrote about this ... Read More

Are you sick of hearing about Joe The Plumber? I'm not. I think it really drives home an issue. If you make over $250,000 in your business, no matter what your expenses, you will be paying more in taxes under Obama's plan. A business bringing in that amount of money also has plenty of expenses. They need to pay salaries to their workers, buy supplies such as spring plungers, snakes and wrenches, pay for advertising and vehicles. ... Read More

I think I have made it know that I don't like either of the "two party" candidates, so I am going with a third party this year, The Constitution Party. I am going to vote for a candidate that shares most of my views. I am sad to say that the Republican Party is becoming almost indistinguishable from the Democratic Party on increasing the size of government and pork spending. I have advocated before for the elimination of the Department of ... Read More

If Sarah Palin would have said the things that Biden says, she would be hammered by the media. Just another clue that the media is leaning to the left. By the end of the election, I might need more laptop memory to keep up with all the mistakes that he has made. Here are just a few: Biden claims that "Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy." (meaning Obama). ... Read More

We have a radio host here in New Jersey, Jim Gearhart, who advocates G.R.I.P. What does G.R.I.P. stand for? "Get Rid of Incumbent Politicians" Personally, I think Gearhart is right on. But many citizens of New Jersey just don't get it. They are so afraid to vote anything other than party lines that they will continue to vote in the same politicians that they complain about daily. Think about it. In July 2008, the United States Congress had an ... Read More

Obama likes to claim that 95% of Americans will see a tax cut under his administration. Don't hold your breathe. If you think that you will actually get more money in your pocket from your paycheck, you may have to think again. Obama's plan involves "tax credits". Here are the credits he plans to give: - A $500 tax credit ($1,000 a couple) to "make work pay" that phases out at income of $75,000 for individuals and $150,000 per ... Read More

I didn't even bother pulling up my tv lift cabinet to watch the last debate. The other two were boring enough! I learn nothing new from the debates, the candidates really don't answer the questions and although they try to tell you they will solve all of the problems of the country, we get little details. McCain seems to be losing ground, as I thought that he would. He is just not the right Republican candidate. Not ... Read More

If Obama wins the election, it might be the first time the White House hasn't had to buy pet supplies in a long time. Obama's family does not own any pets, but supposedly he has promised to buy his girls a dog. Now if McCain wins, be prepared to see three turtles, three parakeets, a ferret, two dogs, a cat and 13 salt water fish, or maybe he will just leave those all in Arizona! Read More

If you think that there are just two (ok three counting Ralph Nader) Presidential Candidates, think again. I don't know how I came across this list since I was actually doing research for alli weight loss, but I found it! There are at over 100 "announced" candidates. "Announced" candidates are those that have formed or announced a Presidential exploratory or campaign committee with the Federal Election Commission or have filed a statement of candidacy. This list also has ... Read More
