Arkady's Thoughts

If you recall, doubt that you do, I put forth my support for Michael Steele the second I learned of his interest in running for RNC chair. I believe, although it is difficult to prove, that Duncan screwed the pooch and under his watch the GOP lost tremendous ground. Therefore it was imperative for the GOP to acquire new leadership and this was done today. Although Steele is dubbed centrist (perhaps incorrectly), he is for the most part a very approachable conservative man. His is eloquent, genuine and extremely personable.

Since middle-class is apparently any working family, due to a lack of any other explanation, I am excited. I am middle class! Let's analyze the goals of the task force: Expanding education and lifelong training opportunities Ok , I guess someone will be paying for my education and random

Scott over at PatriotRoom found a great page of a Sgt. Welsh from Iraq declaring war on Hollywood and our current administration. His major point is that the portrayal of Iraq is not only that of failure, but also fabricated fantasy. Because he actually served, I am inclined to believe his story a little more than directors trying to shove their idealistic view points down America's throat. Anyway, not much to say, just go over there and check it out . Leave him a good comment or two, the guy deserves it.
