Maine voters say no to gay marriage

It is a well known fact that voters in the New England area of our country are more independent than most and tend to vote more on the liberal side of the political spectrum. That statement is not meant to be a slam towards those voters, just an observation. When the Maine legislature voted...

The arrest of Henry Louis Gates Jr.

The arrest of Henry Louis Gates Jr.

Just when we think racism may be on it’s way out in this country, it seems like it has to raise it’s ugly head. With the arrest of Henry Louis Gates Jr. by Cambridge, Massachusetts police Sergeant James Crowley, it appears it has done just that. Gates is evidently a well known scholar from...

Is gay the new black?

Monday, December 1, 2008
By LD Jackson

Let me state, as clearly as I can, that I am against giving homosexual couples the right to marry. Marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman and homosexual couples have no business encroaching upon that union. At the same time, what two consenting adults do between themselves is none of...

Bill Ayers and Barack Obama

Friday, November 14, 2008
By LD Jackson

We are all very familiar with the questions about Barack Obama’s relationship with William (Bill) Ayers, the Vietnam era radical terrorist who has said he wishes he could have done more during his time of rebellion. As if planting bombs in his own country was not enough. More familiar are the denials by Obama...

President-elect Barack Obama

Wednesday, November 5, 2008
By LD Jackson

Well, this election is finally over and our country has elected Barack Obama as our first African American President, the 44th. I congratulate him for winning this race, but I couldn’t be more sad that he did. I am also not surprised that he has won, considering the help he had from both the...

Election 2008–History in the making

Tuesday, November 4, 2008
By LD Jackson

I have pondered for some time what to write on the morning of election day, 2008. It would be an understatement to simply say this is one of the most important elections in our history. After all the votes are cast and the results are in, history will certainly be made. We will have...

The history of Barack Obama

Sunday, October 19, 2008
By LD Jackson

I have already written at least a couple of articles that detail Barack Obama’s willingness to forego the First Amendment and use litigation threats to shut down his political opponents. The latest accusations of voter registration fraud by ACORN is no exception. From Real Clear Politics: Obama campaign counsel Bob Bauer has sent a...

The Presidential election in 2008 is not about race

I have made it no secret that I am very much against Barack Obama and I believe I have made it very clear why. I believe the change he keeps talking about will be more of a change than our country can handle and will be more of a change than he is telling....

Making a mistake against Barack Obama

Wednesday, July 16, 2008
By LD Jackson

Back in March, I wrote an article called His name is Mike Huckabee, not Hucka (whatever). I was trying to draw attention to what I felt was the unfair usage of Huckabee’s name.  Never have I seen a political candidate’s name subjected to such butchery.  I believe Barack Obama has been subjected to some...

Looking forward to an Obama Presidency

Thursday, July 3, 2008
By LD Jackson

For months now, the liberal Democrats have been salivating at the prospect at having one of the most liberal of their group as President of the United States.  The fact that Obama is African American is just a big bonus to them. I believe what they are really excited about is the liberal policies...
