October 1st, 2008 · 1 Comment

Read it and weep.  Story from NY Times in 1999. 
Now we all are paying the price for lax lending practices.  All corrupt from top to bottom.  Clinton’s idea of trying to help the needy is to just give them money.  Now it has all come crashing down.

Bailout Palooza

September 26th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Everyone’s got their hand out.  Now McCan and Obama are trying to work out a deal for the Dems and the GOP.  This is the most riduculous thing I’v seen in my lifetime.  And George Bush had the gall to actually say “I believe in the free market”, meanwhile, they’re all trying to bail out their […]

GOP Candidates - Where’s the Beef? (Update)

January 10th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Well, now that we have Iowa and New Hampshire out of the way, it’s still not clear, who the front runner is. And, as expected, they are all posturing themselves to be closest to conservatives and proclaim to be Reaganistas. It seems, the base is not going to get their ideal candidate […]

GOP Candidates - Where’s the Beef?

August 18th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Looking at the current crop of GOP candidates, I just can’t seem to get myself enthused. The question keeps popping in my mind is “Where’s the Beef?” None of the top candidates, really, look that impressive, when it comes to conservative principles. And that may be the real problem here. The […]

Doctors of Death - Bangalore Connection

July 5th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Sad to report that the investigations of the UK terror plot are starting to show a strong Bangalore connection. What’s worse is that it’s a cell of doctors as Michelle Malkin has reported. One held in Britain, and another being held in Australia. Dr. Mohammed Haneef, 27 years old, […]

Amnesty Bill Finally RIP

July 1st, 2007 · No Comments

I believe we finally got the amnesty bill to RIP. At least for now. Hopefully. But I know, Bush, and amnesty lobby will not rest until they have their way. The open border lobby is determined to get what they want. How else do you explain that both parties […]

Immigration Bill Blocked

June 8th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Looks like some courageous Republicans left in Congress wound up blocking this bill. At least for now. Kennedy doesn’t get to gloat after all. How long has this guy been in the Senate? A prime example of why there should be term limits in Congress as well. If it’s […]

Illegal Immigration Bill Making Mockery of the Whole System

June 2nd, 2007 · No Comments

I expected this from the Democrats. But the Republicans and the Bush administration is really insulting the intelligence of all immigrants, including me. This is not an immigration bill, it’s an amnesty bill for all illegals here.
There are already laws on the books for immigration. These people are here illegally. I […]

The Futurist - Cultures of Success

December 14th, 2006 · No Comments

The Futurist is a new great blog I have discovered recently. I have added it to my blog roll, in the right column.
It offers a look at “The Jungle” on a much higher intellectual plane. There is no information on the author of this blog, but he/she has certainly provided something […]

Hatred of America!

December 1st, 2006 · 4 Comments

“Down with America” reads the graffiti on the sidewalk wall on Hosur road. Somehow, this did not shock me. India’s media is full of anti American rhetoric and the bias is so prevalent it amounts to brainwashing. How quickly the new generation has forgotten history and shelved the lessons of history.
During the […]

This question goes beyond the scandals and corruptions plaguing the Republican Party in the last 4 years.
The core conservative principals of right and wrong, of self […]

Looks like the Dems are taking control of the House.  Senate maybe gone from Republicans as well, but by a small margin.  At least there is one silver lining in the deep dark clouds:

Will analyze the results in a later post. Suffice it to say, the Republicans need really look at their candidates and the […]
