It is a well-established fact that the United States is a center-right nation, yet over the last fifty years, the country’s laws and policies have slowly drifted leftward. One reason for this is that the Right has passively accepted the premise that the Left holds the middle ground. By labeling conservative ideas as extreme, the Left is laying claim to a default position in the center.
What Do You Mean, Liberals Don’t Have Conservatives’ Best Interests in Mind?

When you think about it, there’s something kind of surreal about the common occurrence of pundits from one side of the aisle purporting to give serious political advice to their adversaries. Not that they do it, of course—the ulterior motives of kneecapping the opposition or making it more like you is obvious—but it’s remarkable that [...]

NRB Interview: Tom Campbell Hopes to Challenge Barbara Boxer
May 27, 2010 By Leave a Comment
NewsRealBlog did an interview with the front runner, depending on what poll you view, for the California Republican Senate nomination, Tom Campbell. The other two Senatorial candidates were asked to participate but could not find the time for an interview. It was very refreshing to hear Tom Campbell concentrate on his views and opinions [...]

May 9, 2010 By 2 Comments
Critics or my recent NewsReal Blog post miss my point. My point is not to disparage either Sarah Palin or Carly Fiorina, both of whom I like, respect and admire.

Sarah Palin Surprise Support of Fiorina: No Wimps Allowed!
May 6, 2010 By Leave a Comment
It was but seventy seven years ago that Wimpy murmured to Popeye the Sailor man: “I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today”. Particularly apt this afternoon because Californians are wondering if today is Carly Fiorina’s “Tuesday.”
Following Fiorina’s support during the White House bid, Sarah Palin has now officially endorsed Ms. Fiorina’s [...]
The Next Scott Brown?

Can California elect a Republican to the Senate? In a more conventional time, that might seem like a fanciful question. But with Scott Brown’s improbable victory in true-blue Massachusetts, it’s very much within the realm of possibility. Further underscoring that point, today’s New York Times reports on the surprisingly competitive race between three Republican challengers [...]
Killing ManBearPig the Alinsky Way
March 1, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) has been a man on a mission since 2003, when he embarked on his crusade to destroy the myth of ManBearPig and the Democrats’ associated agenda to redistribute wealth as a tribute to Gaïa. ManBearPig may have gone out with quite a bang, but Cap-’n-Tax went very quietly into the [...]
