Sarah Palin Brings Experience To The Race

Say what??? The immediate tag line of the Mainstream Media and the Leftwing attack machine was that John McCain's vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin lacks experience. Oh really? Palin has run a city government and a state government. She has a record of enacting reform rather than talking about it. She is a doer not a talker like the Big B-O. The Senate is a glorified debating society. The Senate, with a few exceptions, are like ward bosses from the political machine days whose function is to bring back a chunk of the yearly pig pulling to their state and support whatever asinine cliff their party wants to jump off of. Any governor and a large number of mayors are infinitely more qualified to be chief executive than any member of the U.S. Senate.

Tim Kaine Embarasses Virginia

Virginia Governor Tim Kaine just delivered his speech as part of the leadup to the coronation of Prince Barack Hussein Obama. Two nights and two embarassing performances by Virginia politicians. Mark Warner sounded like the obnoxious guy you get stuck next to on a cross-country flight as he recounted the fascinating story of his rise to riches in the cell phone industry. And now Kaine fills the bill of the VERY white guy attempting to sound like a soulful black preacher. It looked more like a bad community theatre parody than a serious speech by someone who was on the short list to be a vice-presidential nominee. Look, I don't expect that we will ever again have a Patrick Henry, George Mason, James Madison or Thomas Jefferson representing Virginia. But, can't we do better than Joe Isuzu and Vanilla Ice?

Intro

Greetings from the "Silent Majority." This blog will feature political and historical ramblings from a 19-year history teacher who found his way to the nation's roots after years of indoctrination into the statist views of public education and the mass media. And, yes, I teach in a public school. Some days I see myself as a missionary in a hostile country or Colonel Hogan trying to help save the free world from within a German POW camp.
