As the news coverage of the GOP wins in Virginia and New Jersey continues, it is clear November 3rd was a big day for the Republican Party. Even though they lost the congressional seat in New York, they managed to pull off big wins in both of the previously mentioned states. The win in New [...]

For as long as I can remember, I can recall my father working hard all day long. If he wasn’t building a house or bailing hay, he was working on our turkey farm. When we weren’t in school, my twin brother and I would usually be helping and there was a few things you could [...]

In a couple of  last minute changes to his schedule, President Obama will be traveling to Elkhart, IN on Monday and Fort Myers, FL on Tuesday. His aides were going with a different plan at first, with the President staying in Washington to watch over the economic stimulus package as it works it’s weary way [...]

Defending the 2nd Amendment

January 26, 2009 by LD Jackson · 120 Comments 

Let me start of by asking a couple of questions. Do you believe the 2nd Amendment is worth defending? Do you believe strong enough in our right to keep and bear arms that you will stand your ground in the face of so much opposition? There is a danger of being to complacent on this issue because if there is one thing I have learned, it is that you can not trust the gun control lobby. They do not want you or me to have this right that our founding fathers believed we should have.

You see, Obama didn’t do this alone. He managed to excite a lot of new and experienced voters at the same time and [...]

Let’s start with a quote from the great document we all hold dear. You know the one, The Constitution.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Now, as near as I can tell, the “people” the [...]

I just got off a blogger conference call with Mike Huckabee and I would like to share the question I asked and the Governor’s response.  This was my first conference call with the Governor and I openly admit, I was shaking like a leaf.  There were several good questions, but I will have to limit [...]

Will the real Mitt Romney please raise his hand?

December 30, 2007 by LD Jackson · Leave a Comment 

Up until now, I have pretty much kept my gloves on and stayed away from personally attacking any candidate.  I much prefer to focus on why I support Mike Huckabee for President, being that it is a much more pleasant topic to discuss.  However, since Mitt Romney insists on bringing out negative ads against Mike [...]
