Time to kiss off 'HOT AIR' blog??

Renew America thinks it is time for conservatives to dump Hot Air and its new owners.

It might be a little early but they make some good points.

Glenn Beck under attack?

Glenn Beck has stated that he does NOT support a third party movement.

Somehow that has not stopped others from attacking Beck for um... supporting a third party movement? Mark Levin dug up Bill Bennett, a really old has been, to justify his own attacks on Beck. I guess we could say the RINO's are striking back.

Apparently, Mark Levin who has bashed RINO's incessantly in the past is now accusing Glenn Beck of trying to divide the party by... attacking RINO's incessantly. Glenn Beck simply points out that when the GOP has controlled the government they do not cut spending, they do not balance the budget, they do not trim entitlements, they do not defund leftwing radical groups like ACORN or Planned Parenthood.

Criticizing the GOP for its failings is a good thing, they need to be encouraged to change their behavior should they be put into a position of power again. The GOP wants and needs the conservative vote, it is right to make them earn it. They should not get it by default. That is one of the problems with the GOP, they like to stamp out conservative voices of dissent.

Mark Levin isn't exactly demure and shy when he criticizes Republicans, why should he expect obediance from others? Sounds a bit hypocritical to me.

CPAC jumps shark.

CPAC conference was marred by a speaker being shouted down by homosexual activists who are co-sponsors of the Conference and now Ron Paul wins their straw poll. Its too bad that 75% of those who attended did not even bother to vote. They could have had a chance to save the reputation of CPAC.

Come on idiots. Ron Paul is the Lyndon LaRouche of the "Republican Party" which he only joined because the Libertarian Party had no chance to win. CPAC has lost all credibility, it should change its name out of shame. I doubt they feel shame any more than Barack Obama declaring himself a deficit fighter.

The Ronbots and Mittbots were out in full force. What a spectacle they made of themselves and of the conference.

WINNER: Sarah Palin, for skipping it altogether.

Big Bowl of Unexpected-O's for breakfast

Unemployment is up again..... unexpectedly

I cannot believe even the leftist media in this country will let Barry Obama get away with acting as if he and the Democrats in Congress have nothing to do with the out of control spending. Now he is appointing a Commission to "study" how they are spending more than they take in?

You guys wrote the budget.

Then in the same speech he talks about he signed a "Paygo" bill last week and will freeze "discretionary" spending next year. Right. If you guys did do "Paygo" you wouldn't have a $1.6 trillion deficit, you wouldn't have increased the debt ceiling by $2 trillion. You wouldn't pretend to need a Commission to "study" what you did.

You guys wrote the budget.

You don't need a Commission to study that.

On second thought I just heard a news report on ABC Radio that started off with "It's kind of like hiring a credit counselor..."

Still covering for the bankrupter of America.



Welcome back, Carter!

Mt Vernon Statement is Vague and Disappointing

Some conservative "leaders" have gathered and produced a document they believe might ignite some passion and engineer a conservative renewal. It is called the Mount Vernon Statement, as in the home of George Washington.

I find it to be a weak, vague "can we change back now?" kind of statement. It is a weak and disappointing read. It will not energize the conservative movement nor bring aboard independents and apolitical people. It is too vague and watered down to mean anything.

The points it makes are vague. It should have included some specific policy initiatives such as an end to corporate welfare and cronyism where government favors with regulations and even funds favored businesses. This is an idea that rank and file Democrat voters would agree with as well as Republicans, yet politicians and bureaucrats continue to sell out time and time again.

How do you carry it out?

Does the Republican Party of today believe in these prinicples? How can voting for the GOP as it stands today further conservatism?

There a number of conservative ideas that will find general agreement with rank and file Democrat voters, but getting politicians on either side to actually pursue them has proven impossible time and time again.

The Mount Vernon Statement will be about as effective as a limp noodle used to flog a rock.

House passes Big Brother Act 422-5

Why am I not surprised?

The government will now require every ISP to log every website everyone visits, so the government will know where you have been online.

This isn't new but why don't these Congressman ever read these things?
