Alas, I wish that I could be in Washington, D.C. right now, attending the 2012 Conservative Political Action Conference, one of the largest and most fun collections of conservatives put on each year by the American Conservative Union. There is something great about being in that type of atmosphere. For a long time, I planned [...]

If I accurately remember some of the campaign rhetoric of 2008, then-Senator Barack Obama claimed that he was going to go “line by line” in addressing the waste in the federal budget, and that he was going to use a “scalpel rather than a sledgehammer” in his attempts to bring our fiscal concerns under control. [...]

“Ozzie will get what’s coming to him.” Those were the words of Florida Congresswoman and Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, as said to an associate of congressional candidate Ozzie deFaria after deFaria used the photo at right in recently disseminated fundraising materials. Unfortunately, deFaria’s take on the statement made by the Florida Congressman, known [...]

Dear Nancy, Perhaps you remember me, Madam Spea– oh no, wait … you’re not Speaker of the House anymore. My bad, as the kids are fond of saying these days. In any event, you may remember me from a birthday wish that I penned to you almost two years ago, an article that caught quite [...]

Behind me, a silver-haired woman in a “Newt 2012″ button-adorned, GOP elephant-styled sweater is shaking her head, forlornly thumbing out a text message to friends and family. The former House Speaker, scheduled to speak at about 9:30 a.m. at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, has chosen to cancel his appearance and move on with his [...]

I am a divorce attorney at The LaMantia Law Firm in Charleston, South Carolina.

The Internet and the blogosphere in America have become supercharged with political activity during the past several years, activity that has radiated a degree of heightened awareness regarding the cultural crossroads at which we find ourselves. This has all no doubt been in direct, exponential proportion to what the American people have clearly come to view as a direct attack on [...]
A Personal Tale of Two Palmetto State Primaries

Filed under News & Views
This is my second GOP primary season the Palmetto State, and the first one in which I plan to cast a vote. What amazes me is how much I have changed in the dozen years since my first foray into covering national politics. In early February 2000, I was working as a news reporter for [...]
The Right, Wrong Way to Attack Romney on Bain

Filed under A.R. Essentials, News & Views
Regardless of how they feel about the candidate himself, I’d be willing to be that most on the American political right are okay with Mitt Romney’s record at Bain Capital, in spite of attacks on that record sparked and parroted by those trying to chip away at his status as frontrunner for the GOP nomination.

To Our Alleged Republicans – I simply can’t take this anymore. To where, exactly, has the concept of principled leadership in America disappeared? If we’re going to point to Barack Obama and his fascist sychophants, we may as well fold up our tents and go home, because quite frankly, it’s over. After all, 235 ½ [...]
