ROMNEY SHOULD NOT BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT
This is a devastating editorial by the Concord Monitor stating their reasons that Mitt Romney should not be elected President. They are pretty compelling reasons.

A fascinating story about the change in cultures where it was once almost mandatory to have boys.

I would love to see this happen. The Democrats base would abandon them in droves if they did this.

The Heritage Foundation has a good explanation of why and how the President can cancel many of the pork in the omnibus bill.

Boy, would I love it if the President can do this.

I like Senator Coburn. He is one of the stalwarts in the battle for fiscal responsibility.

Maybe Secretary Gates needs to be a little more forceful than he has been with Congress.

over 11,000 earmarks. The question is how long are we, the American people, going to put up with this?

The Steelers won last night 41 to 24. We need to get our defense back playing together. They did not look good, but Big Ben and our receivers took care of everything. We lost Willie Parker for the rest of the year - a loss we can't afford.

Paul Weyrich is the pundit I dislike the most. He is arrogant, pompous and self serving. I rarely pay any attention to anything he says. He lost my respect when he presumed to tell people who the good and bad Christians were in politics. But in this case, I have to give him credit for the article about the pork in the omnibus bill just passed by Congress.

Tom Tancredo has dropped his futile bid for the White House and endorsed Mitt Romney.

My Heritage.org has the story of the ugly spending bill passed by Congress. What a disaster with all the earmarks, and unfortunately, the President intends to sign it.

President Bush gave Congress a pass on earmarks. That will come back to haunt the Republican party.

If you want to get a good idea of what a fraud this Democratically controlled Congress is, just read this article.

Tony Blankley writes for the Washington Times. His article about the in-fighting of the Republican party is on the money. Ed Morrissey of Captain's Quarters has the story.

I must admit that I am very tired of the odd names that parents stick their kids with in today's society, but as I read this story I thought 'I don't want a Court telling us what we can name our kids!!'

Well, if the Democrats are seriously thinking of getting rid of Senator Byrd, maybe they will add Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi to the list.

I respect elderly people, but there comes a time when someone of Senator Byrd's age and health has to realize that a younger person should step in.

Bret Stephens has an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal about the 43,000 mile journey around the world of the United States Atlantic Fleet on December 16, 1907. It is well worth reading today.

Everyone should read this carefully. Anytime the Federal government gets involved, it can't be good.

Ron Kessler has an article in Newsmax quoting Senator Bond about what Iran is really up to. I respect and trust Senator Bond's judgement, certainly much more than I trust the Intelligence community.

At this rate the Steelers will be lucky to make the playoffs. On second thought, they don't deserve to make the playoffs.

It's troubling to me that other campaigns didn't see the Governor coming. It shows shortsightedness on their part.

Shame on Mitch McConnell. Just another reason why he should not be the leader of the Republican party in the Senate.

I have followed politics closely for 40 years. I have never seen a candidate who has impressed me more with his fund raising ability than Ron Paul. Having said that, I have never seen a candidate who impresses me less with his philosophy. I have read a lot about what Mr. Paul believes and where he stands on the issues. I don't agree with him on any issue, but I do respect his fundraising ability.

Charles Babington is a lousy reporter, but this is a good analysis of what has happened to Congressional Democrats. Pay particular attention to what Trent Lott says.

Salena Zito has a good article about Rudy Giuliani. As she points out, he never planned on competing in Iowa, but if he loses in Florida (where he is now running third), his campaign is over.
