I wrote an earlier post criticizing Matt Strawn and the RPI’s lack of action in regards to the Iowa Supreme Court’s ruling on the Defense of Marriage Act. It seemed to me that this issue exploded the grassroots and the activists while bringing out warriors in the Republican political class. Instead of capitalizing on this [...]

In case you don’t know, Rekha Basu writes opinion articles for the liberal biased Des Moines Register. She is as far from my world-view as you can probably get and while she is just exercising her First Amendment rights, she recently has opened her mouth about a subject that is personal to both of us.

This is especially so when the legislation being debated is controversial, such as the Governor’s bonding proposal known as I-Jobs.

On this rainy, cool Iowa Saturday afternoon I offer up a website to visit to learn about Rednecks. Yes, learn something! Check out the entire site!

I find the “Redneck Values” very admirable! And I wish them the best with getting an apology from Ms. Garofalo! Keith Olbermann really was an accessory to the vicious attack [...]

I have been paying attention to Iowa Attorney Generals threatening of County Recorders if they stand up to say NO to issuing same sex marriage licenses.
In checking out the bio of Tom Miller I find he is in his “seventh 4 year term” and that he “has earned a reputation for integrity, high quality legal [...]

Iowans- What are your thoughts after reading the Washington Post article “Gay marriage ruling followed careful campaign”?
Here is a portion of the article:
Gay marriage ruling followed careful campaign
When taking the legal route, the activists identify same-sex couples to bring “test” cases, typically after meeting and spending time with scores of couples. They prepare the selected [...]

Mike Huckabee, my candidate, has been in the news and oh how I love it! In a March 31Townhall piece, Kevin McCullough sums up how I feel about Huckabee:

On April 3rd the Iowa Supreme Court unconstitutionally attempted to make same-sex marriage the law in Iowa. According to the Iowa Constitution the privilege of making laws is only for the legislature and the people of our great state. The court only offers an opinion on the law and then sends it back to the [...]

Following the bias in the media has become an interest to me. Each day finds more to cause my uneasiness and fear for what various media outlets are doing to take down America. I found an article from The Bulletin by Herb Denenberg which not only points out what the media is doing with their [...]
