If only we had a man of this vision, of this integrity, of this beacon of hope.

You won't hear a single candidate say what he said so eloquently. Freedom from Government. A Government of the People, not a People of the Government.

Yes, We Can. . . lie to the American People.

Initially, they decried this as a lie, as never happening.
Now Obama's people are saying that they were not quoted accurately.

What is happening today in Fayette was happening in Chicago 30 years ago. In fact, its happening all across America.

One of the few "achievements" for which we are supposed to give Obama the keys to the White House, is his work as a "community organizer". No, this isn't a person that comes into your home to straighten up your closets or garage. Nor to pick up trash along the highways in and around your community. No, a community organizer was someone who beat the drums of discontent, where before there was none.

(This response is coming from an earlier blog's comments, but since Cal is writing so much of his drivel under SageAdvice's name, it was lost on the second page.)

I finally figured out who Dollar and Sageadvice are, including their other alias's. Its Cal Beverly.

Since Cal is apparently quick to cull the blog from some content, which is his right, and yet he chooses to not only allow, but encourages the rather asinine comments from Dollar/Sage to "clog his blog," I can not help but believe that he believes that Dollar is helping his website in some manner, therefore my keen deductive reasoning is that Cal is Dollar/Sage.

Liberal Blogger Caught Red Handed

I've not been paying quite as much attention to all of the different posters' personalities on this site. I have a hard enough time remembering who hack, git, and muddle are, to actually be able to differentiate as adroitly as many on here do, to the subtle differences/similarities between certain anonymous posters.

Many political pundits are opining about the changes that have occurred in America over the many years, especially in light of MLK's murder, only occurring 40 years ago.

JeffC,

I have to commend you on your many replies and insightful contributions to the many topics this little newspaper website produces. I am even more appreciative of how you have handled my many taunts and slurs I've made against your dear old Dad. You've proven that you are thick skinned by dismissively and astutely replying to my comments with civility and an occaisional witty retort and sarcasm, which of course, I love.

Cal,

I've read so many very interesting blogs on this website, that I can't imagine giving you an accurate number. The fact is, I rarely read the paper, but I do frequently check your website.

This one is for Mike Huckabee.

Right now, I'm liking Mike or Fred. Or Fred and Mike on the ticket.

I really enjoyed this real campaign commerical. Chuck Norris endorsement.

I've read so many of your posts over the last year or so, and most I find to be pot stirrers. You stir the pot of discussion and encourage others to post in reply. Thats good, in that it encourages debate, but you often leave true debate behind and run off into your diatribes when certain political contests are brought up. You are certainly entitled to complain openly with your opinions, but your opinion is of little value when its cloaked from what your true biases are.

My brother in law was just shipped back to Iraq this past week for his second tour.
I was worried about his safety and the fact that he has left five children and a wife back at home. (three disabled)

Sorry JeffC, but I teach my children that the company they keep reflects more on their character than any other single thing. Having Castro embrace Hillary and your father evidences the socialism that they both share.

Cal,

With you concerns over the website, I'd hope that you might consider a few additional thoughts.

Blogs.

On Second Thought, Don't Surrender
In an important and surprising New York Times op-ed piece, Michael O'Hanlon and Kenneth Pollack, both from the liberal Brookings Institution, describe a visit to Iraq, where they find that things are not as bad as--well, as New York Times readers have been led to believe. The piece is titled "A War We Just Might Win":

Just ignore them, please.

I've just read and re-read several very poignant and interesting articles and debates online. Mixer and Muddle were having an extraordinarily good debate about matters I find of great interest. (I wish Fayettespeaks didn't censure debate, and then I'd invite you to come to that website to explore those topics further.) However, I couldn't help but again be perplexed by those that come to this website and spray paint their graffiti from top to bottom on almost every blog or news article.

Curious as to you cell phone users.

I had Cingular about five years ago, but their phones were poorly designed. I needed a Palm phone to store my calendar and clients on and could sinc with my computer's software.

Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign has tapped Rep. Alcee Hastings, a Florida Democrat, as a "national campaign co-chair," the campaign announced yesterday:

An excellent read by Peggy Noonan, former speech writer for President Reagan from the Wall Street Journal.

Too Bad
President Bush has torn the conservative coalition asunder.

Yesterday, this very fine young man came in to see me. He is in the Army infantry and he spoke concisely and clearly, sprinkling his comments with "yes sir" or "no sir", in just the right amount. Although he was but a very young man, he showed maturity far beyond that of today's youth whose goals seem to be more concerned with the number of new ringtones that they have on their new cell phone. Needless to say, I was immediately fond of him.

Having left another organization in disgust this past year, I found I had some time on my hand. So one Saturday, I took my family to the High School for the annual Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast.

"I believe . . . that this war is lost, and this surge is not accomplishing anything, as is shown by the extreme violence in Iraq this week."--Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, April 19, 2007

GLOBABL WARMING VIDEO THE REAL TRUTH

I loved Valerie Plame's testimony the other day as I was driving to Helen for a weekend away from the circus.

She was asked by a Congressman if she was a "covert" agent. She said that she didn't know if she was classified as a covert agent or not, that she was there to speak about the criminal "outing" of her.

Reagan Statue proposed in Former Soviet Bloc Nation

Why are our troops still there?
Why do they have to be over there when the "war" was already won?
These men and women are away from the families and are paying a heavy cost, for what?

I thought I'd take our occasional and good hearted debate down a notch or two.

I enjoy movies and wondered what you would recommend as being some of your favorites.

Now even his friends are bailing out of Jimmy's maniacal world view regarding his ignorance over the Middle East.

Today I've read that Bob Barr has moved from the Republican Party to become a Libertarian. He reportedly cites the loss of personal privacy, i.e. patriot act, and the GOP's spending frenzy as why he is no longer a Republican.
