First off, I am not endorsing Sarah Palin here. That is not what this post is about. This is about strategy.Sarah Palin is a lightning rod for the American left. Every time her name comes up, venom. Every time she appears, venom. Every time it is suggested she could run for president, there is a storm of fire and brimstone of biblical proportions from the left-wing media.And it is for this very re

Thoughts on guns

Rex Murphy in the Post:Whether for convenience or from timidity, the Harper Conservatives do everything with the gun registry except close it down. It is, in its way, curiously, a much longer version of what Barack Obama is doing with Guantanamo Bay — a hot-button issue that the U.S. President presses when he needs to charge his base, but which, now nearly two years into his mandate and despite

Obama's Point of No Return

American Thinker: There comes a moment in a failing presidency where the incumbent, through some single gesture, action, or statement, crosses a certain line from beyond which there is no return. Through his own will and behavior, he so underlines his failings, so frames his negative image, that no further action can ever erase it. Fate, accident, and circumstance have nothing to do with it. It
