I’m here to tell you that they have it backwards – in more ways than one. While I don’t agree with how things have escalated recently at some of these meetings, that should serve as proof of how vehemently the Obama administration’s policies are opposed.

Just a tip for the President and his yes men: If you stop payment on the bloated and ineffective stimulus package and provide entrepreneurs the opportunity to build small business without taxing them to death, all of those people with the time on their hands to protest would be at work instead… where their insurance would likely be covered by the employer.

1360 more days to go… God help us all!

My daily routine these days is to work from 8AM to 5PM, hop in my car and drive home, eat some dinner while watching the rest of ‘The Factor’ with Bill O’Reilly followed by a full uninterrupted hour of Sean Hannity’s TV show, uniquely named ‘Hannity’.

As much as I enjoy hearing editorial from right leaning talk show hosts (all the way tipped over in Sean’s case), I have to admit to getting bored at times listening to the same phrases and talking points from Mr. Hannity. So, in good fun, I present my Sean Hannity drinking game.

1. If Sean says something is ‘unbelievable’, take a drink.
2. If Sean mentions his Hummer Hybrid, take a drink. If followed up by, “It’s the best car/SUV I’ve ever owned,” take another.
3. If Sean says, “unrepentant terrorist” and “Bill Ayers” in the same sentence, take a drink.
4. If Sean says, “chickens have come home to roost” in reference to Rev. Jeremiah Wright, take a drink.
5. When Sean is introducing the “Great American Panel” take a drink for every “great” Sean utters.
6. Take a drink if Sean picks up and throws a Nerf ball before a commercial break.
7. If Sean says, “Let not your heart be troubled” in reference to the afore-mentioned “Great American Panel” take a drink. If the saying is in regards to introducing Greta Van Susteren, take two.

Good luck not passing out after playing this game. If you have other entries, feel free to add them in the comments.

Sure, I don’t agree with John McCain on every talking point. But I don’t have to. It’s not a matter of whether I agree with the man 100%. It does matter who gets to make the next supreme court appointments. It does matter that the executive and legislative branches of government don’t get to form an unholy trinity with said supreme court and allow a system of rubber stamp bill signings and liberal bench decisions that throw our country into a further economic and social tailspin. It does matter that we get to keep our current freedoms – speech, religion, and the right to bear arms, just to name a few.

With John McCain, we can be sure that any supreme court justice he may get to appoint will be qualified and fair-minded.  With John McCain, there will be checks and balances in the 3 pillars of government, and our personal freedoms will be guaranteed.

We’re all hungry for change, but you’ve got to know that sitting idly by while others make the decision for you is not the answer. By doing so, the vote you don’t cast for John McCain IS being cast for Barack Obama. It may not taste very good, but it’s better than the poisonous alternative. It’s time to make a stand, not sit on the sidelines. Your hand may shake, your heart may sink, but you have to complete that arrow for John McCain.

In all sincerity, the entire nation is counting on you to do the right thing.

Granted, the Maverickette could’ve answered the question better, but Williams shouldn’t have asked it in the first place. What sane, impartial ‘journalist’ would ask such a thing? That’s the rub… not one.

Is Williams really trying to find some moral equivalency between the Bill Ayers bombings of public buildings and that of an abortion clinic? Okay. I’ll agree to the supposition (though I think there is a difference). Suppose they are the moral equivalent, would the main stream media be attempting to sweep under the rug the fact that John McCain seemed to approve enough of a former abortion clinic bomber to have a political fundraiser hosted in the bomber’s home, serve on an 8-person board with him and even write a forward in the bomber’s book?

Can you honestly say the media would not be hounding the crap out of McCain AND the bomber over the link? Instead, the shoe is on the left foot and the matter is suddenly off limits. I’m having a really hard time believing people are ready to trust this Obama guy.

According to the article, “…a top source in the Barack Obama team tells me the actress ”is not exactly the kind of high-profile star who would be a positive for us.”

Given Lohan’s past problems, plus ongoing brushes with controversy, I’ve learned the campaign quietly told the actress ”thanks, but no thanks,” but in far more diplomatic terms.”

When you add in the fact that Obama is on record as saying he would not repeal the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy on his own, I think he might be someone who is afraid of ‘the gays’. Okay, that’s not entirely accurate of me, but it doesn’t seem to bother the Hollywood left when they do it, I don’t feel so bad about exaggerating things a bit myself. He’s also quoted as saying, “My first obligation as the president is to make sure that I keep the American people safe and that our military is functioning effectively.” That politician talk means that he realizes if his advisers say it’s probably a bad idea, that he will drop the matter.

Personally, I have a few lesbian friends that happen to own a few handguns, rifles, etc. I’ll just say I would trust them to watch my back more than I would Sen. Obama any day of the week.

I’m Teddy Roosevelt.

As a bonus, here are a few timeless quotes from President Roosevelt.

“A healthy-minded boy should feel hearty contempt for the coward and even more hearty indignation for the boy who bullies girls or small boys, or tortures animals.”…”What we have a right to expect of the American boy is that he shall turn out to be a good American man.”

“There are good men and bad men of all nationalities, creeds and colors; and if this world of ours is ever to become what we hope some day it may become, it must be by the general recognition that the man’s heart and soul, the man’s worth and actions, determine his standing.”

“A vote is like a rifle: its usefulness depends upon the character of the user.”

“Let us speak courteously, deal fairly, and keep ourselves armed and ready.”

“Men with the muckrake are often indispensable to the well-being of society, but only if they know when to stop raking the muck.” “An epidemic in indiscriminate assault upon character does not good, but very great harm.” “There should be relentless exposure of and attack upon every evil practice, whether in politics, in business, or in social life. I hail as a benefactor every writer or speaker, every man who, on the platform, or in book, magazine or newspaper, with merciless severity makes such attack, provided always that he in his turn remembers that the attack is of use only if it is absolutely truthful.”

“There is not a man of us who does not at times need a helping hand to be stretched out to him, and then shame upon him who will not stretch out the helping hand to his brother.”

“Don’t hit at all if you can help it; don’t hit a man if you can possibly avoid it; but if you do hit him, put him to sleep.”

“There is not in all America a more dangerous trait than the deification of mere smartness unaccompanied by any sense of moral responsibility.”

Yeah, Whoopi. That’s EXACTLY what he meant. He wants to make you his slave. Did you get hit on the head? Even Sherry was embarrassed for you. I absolutely LOVE that Whoopi prefaced her question with, “I don’t want to misinterpret what you’re saying.” Hahahaha!

You need therapy.
