"That some should be rich, shows that others may become rich, and, hence, is just encouragement to industry and enterprise."
-- President Abraham Lincoln - 1864
"The supply-side claim is not a claim. It is empirically true and historically convincing that with lower rates of taxation on labor and capital, the factors of production, you'll get a bigger economy."
-- U.S. Rep. Jack Kemp








In a fight between Jim Webb and Ollie North, who would win? Oh, that's right, we already know the answer to that question.

“You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.”
-- President Ronald Reagan from "The Speech" - October 27, 1964

How can a site that posts pix and quotes of Ronald Reagan and Abraham Lincoln support Rudy Giuliani or Fred Thompson?Did you people take the blue pill? The ONLY candidate that even remotely comes close to the ideals of Reagan is Ron Paul. And quite, frankly, as much as I love the memory of Abraham Lincoln, I would not have much trouble with Dr Paul if he seriously disagreed with President Lincoln’s suspension of habeus corpus, though I am certain, that the good doctor loves how Mr Lincoln told those NY bankers (who wanted 30% interest to make loans to the govt for Mr Lincoln’s war) where to stick it, and then created the “greenbacks”, which served us until the govt gave up and created the Fed. Resv. Bank system of thievery. Somebody, wake up Andy Jackson!
It’s a PaulNut!
I suppose you could say it’s funny, but this is just a useless, meaningless ad.
What’s the point? To remind people that we don’t know why he didn’t run, or as seems obvious, to suggest that there is some terrible secret in his life that forced him out?
If there was knowledge of an event, and that was relevant to his fitness for office, then by all means get it out so we can all be educated.
But guilt-by-insinuation doesn’t really help anybody, and just seems so liberal. Warner is wrong for Virginia, he’s wrong on the issues, he’s wrong because he can’t be trusted to do what he says, and not do what he says he won’t do.
It’s liberals who have no good ideas that win elections by smearing candidates with innuendo and baseless suggestions of wrongdoing.
When we act like them, we validate their tactics, and lose the moral high ground to people who don’t deserve to occupy that slot.
Charles, it is not for us here to decide the timing to release what will be released. That’s way above our paygrade (which is zero for doing this.)
It is not useless or meaningless in that it piques curiousity, raises questions and prepares people for the answers that will eventually come. I’ve heard that the Warner camp is already bracing for more and were rattled just by this little bit that someone did. Wait until the real political ammo is used.
