Harry Reid feigns opposition to Ground Zero mosque
About 24 hours ago news broke that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) was opposed to the Ground Zero mosque, publicly disagreeing with the imam-in-chief’s President Obama’s support for the mosque.

Jeb Bush won’t run for president in 2012
My fellow conservatives, Jeb Bush deciding (supposedly) not to run for president in 2012 is some of the best news we have received in a while.

‘Midway to that objective,’ 68 years later
As we move on from Memorial Day 2010 into our future which has been carved out by the bravest and the brightest among us, I am reminded again of all the great sacrifices and the great victories in battles and wars past that have kept our country “free.” It’s one thing to remember who gave [...]

Sarah Palin endorses Carly Fiorina in California GOP primary
Sarah Palin, who is supposedly anti-GOP establishment, has endorsed yet another establishment RINO. Palin has chosen to back Carly Fiorina over the conservative Chuck DeVore in the California GOP Senate primary. Palin defended her endorsement by saying that Fiorina had been wrongly “accused of being a RINO [Republican in Name Only]” simply because she is [...]
