Immigration’s Tipping Point …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 22, 2008 # 3 Comments

There’s an old story about frogs. I hear it’s true although I’ve never tested it. If you toss a frog into boiling water, he’ll do his best to jump out. But it’s said if you put a frog in room temperature water and turn the heat on, the frog will stay there […]

Taxes … if we are smart, we hate them. They should be rare and low. They should collect just enough to do what the government is mandated to do by the Constitution and nothing more.
The Left loves taxes, especially tax increases. The Right used to love tax cuts and hated tax increases. […]

Horses, Women, Whiskey and Loot; Obama and Reality …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 18, 2008 # 3 Comments

I’ve been visiting a blog Media Lizzy turned me on to. It’s called ‘Obamacans 2008 Unite!’. It’s for Republicans who support Barack Obama to testify as to why they do. My involvement there has been to opine that self-styled Republicans now supporting Obama couldn’t have been much of a Republican to begin […]

The Death of an Obasm …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 16, 2008 # One Comment

This is a must read post from a new diarist over at RedState. It’s titled ‘Death of an Obasm’ and it’s both thought provoking and hilarious. Have a read …

I am having trouble fully appreciating the phenomenon that is Senator Obama. Certainly, Obama’s overpowering charisma has an amazing effect on any listener, such […]

John Shadegg is One In 435 …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 15, 2008 # One Comment

A friend recently wrote me a lovely recommendation in which he described me as one-in-a-million. It was, of course, very gratifying to hear that he held such a high opinion of me. The idea, of course, is that out of a million people, I rank at or very near the top when applying […]

But We Can Trust Them On Homeland Security …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 14, 2008 # One Comment

68 Senators voted for it. The President will sign it. Most of the House of Representatives supports it as well. Bi-Partisanship at it’s best is what it sounds like. Except we’re talking about FISA.
And a small group of House Democrats is holding up the process of renewing it. They’re offering […]

Hesham Islam to Leave Government in March …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 12, 2008 # 2 Comments

Hesham Islam has been in the new recently. Well, not really. He has been covered by conservative news sites like World Net Daily, NRO and The Washington Times but there’s been precious little MSM coverage outside of that. Bloggers have also covered the news.
I wrote about it here. You can catch […]

Will McCain Do the Right Thing on SCOTUS …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 11, 2008 # No Comment Yet

One of the most vocal, and potentially persuasive arguments for Conservatives to support John McCain is that McCain will be better on SCOTUS appointments. At first blush that might seem to be true.
However, that may be just wishful thinking. Ragnar Danneskjold (OK -ya’ gotta LOVE the name - especially given a couple of […]

McCain’s Walk v. McCain’s Talk …

Blue Collar Muse @ February 11, 2008 # 2 Comments

Since just before Super Tuesday there has been something of an aura of inevitability surrounding the candidacy of John McCain. It now appears likely he will be the GOP nominee for President in 2008. This scenario is not sitting well with many rank and file Republicans, particularly those of the Conservative persuasion.
The problems […]
