Barack Obama

Jan 15, 2009 Posted Under: Events, Personal, opinion, politics

The inauguration of the President of the United States is less than a week away and the significance of this event is such that it is difficult to measure.  When you add to this significance the realization that we are inaugurating the first black President in our country’s history it takes on an even greater significance.  [...]

Do Not Worry About the Economy

Jan 07, 2009 Posted Under: News, bias, journalism, opinion

I hear concerns every day about the economy.  People worry unecessarily all the time because they watch the news.  I am old enough to have experienced several recessions and one thing that always seems to be common with each of them is that the media always says “this one is different” or “this one is [...]

More AP Bias

Dec 14, 2008 Posted Under: Personal, Sooners, bias, journalism, opinion, politics, sports

You may remember that I posted just last week about how irrelevant the AP is in reporting just about anything.  I took a screenshot of Yahoo’s News this morning where it posted an AP story about Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford winning the Heisman Trophy last night.  As you can see in the photo above it [...]

Position Defined

Nov 11, 2008 Posted Under: Christian, Personal, opinion, politics

As I browse through many social networking sites, I find myself taken back to 1992 when I was stationed at RAF Bentwaters in England. It was during this time when the presidential election had occurred and Mr. Bill Clinton had won.  I must tell you that I am both socially and fiscally conservative meaning that [...]

I Am Inspired

Nov 05, 2008 Posted Under: Christian, opinion, politics

What an election!  I bet you are surprised to hear me say that but I am really excited.  I am not happy to see Obama win the presidency by any means.  I am happy with a couple of other aspects of the election. You may remember one of my posts from back in February 2008 [...]

Be Optimistic

Oct 13, 2008 Posted Under: Christian, opinion, politics

As much as it pains me to even think of Obama winning as President, I think it will take some arguments off the table in the future.  I am pretty confident he will win and that makes me sick to my stomach but in this happening it will help to squash this notion that we [...]

Breaking News!

Sep 01, 2008 Posted Under: opinion, politics

As I watch the hurricane coverage today I see the Republican convention going on in the background with the audio muted by the news stations.  They will not cover any of the convention but they manage to mention the news about Alaskan Governer Sarah Palin’s 17 year old daughter being pregnant at every break.  She is [...]

The Left

Sep 01, 2008 Posted Under: opinion, politics

NOTE: The “_ _” following Democrat is meant to represent the “ic” in the word Democratic. I purposely omit this when referring to this political party because it is not representative of a Democratic society in that they typically try to silence those they disagree with.  An example of this is the fairness doctrine meant [...]

When Will I Learn

Jun 28, 2008 Posted Under: constitution, journalism, politics

Sometimes I forget that I am not 18 years old and that I cannot get up at 4:30 am, then stay up until 1:30 am and get  up at 7:00 am again.  I get up so early every day that I automatically wake up early no matter what time I go to bed.  I am [...]

Allow Me To Clarify

Jun 01, 2008 Posted Under: opinion, politics

When I refer to left wing, right wing, I am referring to a person’s social take with reference to the Bible.  When I refer to something as being right, or wrong, I am measuring it with reference to the Bible.  Though I am a poor example of what Jesus would have me to be, I [...]
