The Primaries are finally settled, so it’s Roy Barnes versus Nathan Deal this November for Governor of Georgia. I’m not a big fan of Deal, but I have absolutely no love for Barnes. So to keep Barnes out of office I have to vote for Deal. Lesser of two evils. Hopefully Deal will show me [...]

On Georgia’s Primary Election
July 21st, 2010 · Comments Off
Roy Barnes is an Obama wannabe. He is beholden to the teacher’s unions and the “disenfranchised minorities” inside Georgia‘s urban areas (his “big ticket” legacy was getting rid of Georgia’s former “evil” state flag). He is Georgia’s version of Bill Clinton. I’m scared Barnes will side with the Washington Progressives over Georgia. A vote for [...]

Winner Take All on Health Care
December 1st, 2009 · Comments Off
Says Jonah Goldberg: Hence, the quest for the middle ground usually rewards the worst kinds of politicians — those devoid of any core convictions and only concerned with feathering their own nests — and yields the worst kinds of policies. Blending the two visions is like trying to marry two different recipes. You don’t get [...]

Consent of the Governed
November 30th, 2009 · Comments Off
Said by Doctor Zero: The Declaration of Independence states that governments derive “their just powers from the consent of the governed.” The American understanding of democracy does not envision voters as slaves who enjoy the privilege of voting for a new master every few years. When the Declaration speaks of the right – and, later [...]
