• What are Conservatives Doing?

  by Cyrano Bergerac February 13
  When faced with an imminent or immediate danger there are essentially three options: stand and fight, run and perhaps live to fight another day, or submit.   All I see from Conservatives is talk; complaints about Obama and his policies and snarky remarks about his supporters. Although I gener...

• The Real Collapse of Rome

  by Cyrano Bergerac February 3
  The problem with history is that no one really tries to understand and apply it.   People are taught about the Fall of Rome as if it took a thousand years, and there was nothing anyone could have done about it. Just not true.   In 400 AD, the city of Rome had a population of about a mi...

• Finding a Free Country Project

  by Cyrano Bergerac January 22
  Lately I have been very frustrated by my fellow Conservatives.    I have been asking for practical solutions on how to restore freedom in the USA, and all I get is sort of pie-in-the-sky false optimism that seems to have nothing to do with reality. As freedoms in our country are slowly e...

• Obama Voters are not Necessarily Stupid or Lazy

  by Cyrano Bergerac December 7, 2012
  I have a problem when Conservatives call Obama voters dependent on government welfare and as such stupid, lazy, etc. Although it may be true some of the time, the same could be said of Republican voters. No one political party holds a monopoly on virtue or vice. My real problem with the stupid and l...

• Where do Conservatives Go From Here?

  by Cyrano Bergerac November 2, 2012
  I admire the Tea Party because they have been able to bring attention to the issue of government fiscal responsibility despite the lies, distortion and outright fabrications of the lackies in the LeftWing News and Entertainment Media. The Tea Party has also been able to elect many politicians who cl...

• Todd Akins and the Lies Surrounding “Legitimate Rape”

  by Cyrano Bergerac September 17, 2012
  The Democrats are having a field day with the odd comments from Todd Akins concerning “legitimate rape”. In fact, sometimes it seems that they are building their entire argument against Romney and Ryan based upon this one issue. But the Democrats are unable to stick to the truth, even wh...

• The Problem with Libertarians (IMHO)

  by Cyrano Bergerac July 23, 2012
  I hear a lot of intelligent Libertarians out there saying they are going to vote for Ron Paul or whoever as a protest vote. To protest that voters have no real choice in our Two Party System. I not only disagree with that choice, but I disagree with the premise.   Insanity is often defined as...

• The Leftist Argument Protocol

  by Cyrano Bergerac May 18, 2012
  The Leftist Argument Protocol:   Dismiss - Just reject whatever your opponent says as hogwash without even considering the merits.   Distort - If that doesn't work twist the opponent's argument out of context to try to make it look silly.   Distract - If that does not work, brin...

• Gay Marriage is not a Civil Rights Issue

  by Cyrano Bergerac May 13, 2012
  Gay Marriage is NOT a civil rights issue. Gays are not being widely and institutionally discriminated against in our society. In Iran and Saudi Arabia, yes. In the USA no. Even in the military the problem was more or less solved with "Don't ask don't tell". What this is an "Accommodation" issue. To ...

• Stupid Leftist Tricks

  by Cyrano Bergerac April 16, 2012
  Sometimes I wonder if Leftists/Liberals are really as stupid as they seem, or if they are just so overwhelmed with negative emotions as to be incapable of rational and honest thought. Take tax policy. High taxes that are designed more to be "punitive" (ie., make the bastards pay their due) do exactl...
