The state of the state

I am quite glad Chris Christie is the new governor, and I am quite happy the balance of Democrat to Republican in the Statehouse has become more even (it’s not 50-50, but there’s no supermajority).

Fuggedaboutit

July 23, 2009 — a date which will live in infamy. Forty-four politicians and rabbis were arrested on bribery, money laundering, and corruption charges on that one day.

Rush to judgment

Obama’s effort to dissuade Republicans from listening to Limbaugh is simply wrong. As a well-educated and well-spoken attorney, he should be open to debating the most important issues of our time.

I’m back!

Hi y’all. Sorry for the hiatus. I figured that with it being Inauguration week, it would be a good time to announce my return. This one will be short, but sharp, so just bear with me. Tim Geithner is about to become the new Secretary of the Treasury. Tim Geithner didn’t do his taxes a [...]

What do we do now?

I stayed up last night, watching the returns come in. Needless to say, I am scared of what will happen in the next four years. I’m not quite sure why America voted for Senator Obama, and I’m particularly confused on why Jews voted for Senator Obama. As a patriot, I’ll love my country no matter [...]

Crunch Time

I’m writing this piece at at 10:20 A.M. on Sunday, November 2nd. The big day is two days away. Most polls will close in 59 hours and 40 minutes. The next 4 years are instantly changed by the numbers that will roll in on Tuesday; maybe even the whole cosmic balance will be changed by [...]

Hope I die before I get old

I love music. But real music – rock music. Not hip hop, or pop, or techno, or rap, or many other genres that I just can’t stand. I listen to rock music, as well as many of the subgenres of rock music: punk rock, ska punk, metal, hardcore, alternative country (yes, that exists), classic rock, [...]

I bet you can’t name this tune.

We the People – when every American here’s that phrase, they know it comes from the Constitution. I pledge allgiance to the flag – come on, I’m sure you all know the Pledge of Allegance. O say! can you see – obviously, this one’s from the Star Spangled Banner. Now, I’m gonna put a really [...]

Mike D was wrong.

“Fight for Your Right” That’s correct  – Mike D was wrong. You don’t have to fight for your right to anything nowadays. Pretty much anything is allowed. This election is important for two – the economy and national defense. Those two things have nothing to do with rights. There are no rights to be won [...]

Nobama

This fall, toss out your political affiliations. The presidential election is not a matter of who’s a Republican and who’s a Democrat. It is a matter of who will best protect this country from harm and restore its economic power. And I’m here to tell you why Senator Barack Obama is not that man.

You should be offended.

I’ll admit, I write to offend. When I write an article, I hope that the reader sees the facts and analysis, and takes that in. But even more, I hope that the reader feels a little uncomfortable with what I write. Shock value is key for me. Controversy is what a political piece thrives on. [...]
