Mitt Romney introduced Paul Ryan as “the next president of the United States.” What evidence does America have that Romney won’t be as confused as president as he is on the campaign trail? Can America risk having world events hinge on Romney’s every word? I don’t think so.


Ryan’s problem: Ayn Rand turned adolescence into a philosophy and he used it to launch a political career. He was supposed to be a such a smart one. He seems to have led a completely unexamined life.


Do Eddie Munster and Paul Ryan go to the same barber?


President Obama has chosen illegal aliens over legal Americans who are in need of jobs with his Dream Act that grants work permits to illegals.


Why are “little government” Republicans so intent on instating laws that allow government to essentially decide what is morally right and wrong within one’s own life? I’m a conservative because I want as few restrictions as possible on my personal decisions, not because I like to meddle in everyone else’s affairs.


Sure, the Sikh shooting in Wisconsin was terrible and the public outcry is justified. However, more Christians are killed or imprisoned in Muslim countries daily. Where is the outcry there? Oh, that’s right, we can’t criticize any crimes that Muslims commit.


Anytime somebody walks in and shoots a bunch of people, isn’t that a hate crime? The media report the Sikh temple shooting as a hate crime. However, the Aurora theater shooting wasn’t a hate crime?

All religions are really kind of the same, and they seem to all hate each other’s way of following that main book. They are all right and others all wrong. Makes no sense.


Does Chick-fil-A asked the chickens it puts in its sandwiches if they are Christian chickens who believe in traditional marriage, or will any celibate chicken do?
