Strong Opposition in Alabama to Slot Machines
by Nima Reza, managing editor

Revenue shortfall leads to calls for more gambling.

On Tuesday, Gov. Bob Riley said he will not be hustled into believing video slot machines are the answer to state revenue problems.

"I can’t imagine anyone who thinks the best way to help our economy is to have Alabamans lose billions of dollars gambling," he said in his annual State of the State address.

The Alabama Baptist Convention (ABC) held a news conference today announcing a resolution against gambling legislation.

Billionaire George Soros Goes on Offense, Attacks Tea Party Movement
Seeing the polling data for this year’s election, billionaire George Soros has teamed with liberal groups in an attempt to minimize Democrat losses – by attacking the wildly successful Tea Party movement. Soros launched on Wednesday a new website – www.teapartytracker.org – to undercut the movement’s effectiveness prior to the Nov. 2 elections. According to […]
Guest Analysis: ‘The Case for Marriage’
Excerpt: “If it is true, as we are constantly told, that American law will soon redefine marriage to accommodate same-sex partnerships, the proximate cause for this development will not be that public opinion favors it, although it appears to be moving in that direction. It will be that the most influential Americans, particularly those in […]
Pro-Family Speaker Cautions 600 Montana Parents About ‘Safe Sex’ Curriculum
As school boards across the country eagerly embrace President Obama’s Healthy Youth Act – a new law that teaches young children, as early as kindergarten, about contraceptives and “safe sex” – parents in Helena, Mont., continue to push back against explicit, age-inappropriate curriculum. Dr. Miriam Grossman – a board-certified child, adolescent, adult psychi […]
Huffington Post Tries to Drive Wedge Between Social, Economic Conservatives
With 55 days until the General Election on Nov. 2 – and with a record number of governorships and U.S. Senate and House seats at stake – liberals are desperately trying to minimize what is being heralded as a possible Republican takeover of epic proportions. ‘SPIN’ OF DESPERATION The Huffington Post – a widely read […]
What Government Oppression of Christianity Looks Like
In the U.S., “progressive” government entities on a mission of political correctness don’t need barbed wire or guard dogs if they don’t like how you think and are worried that you might hold up “progress.” If they suspect you of maintaining beliefs that might be contrary to their political agenda, or worse – offending a […]
Excellent NRO piece makes “The Case for Marriage”
Call this part XVI in the series of answers to the question, “how will same-sex marriage affect your family or your heterosexual marriage?”. The editors at National Review have published “The Case for Marriage,” and it’s a good treatment of some of the consequences of redefining marriage. It’s worth your time to read, but a few excerpts may whet […]

ADVICE TO GOP CANDIDATES: AVOID ADJECTIVES, NOUNS ARE GOOD ENOUGH
There is no need, this year, to load up negative ads with adjectives painting your opponents as evil, big spenders in the thrall of the DC establishment. The simple facts of your opponents’ voting records are enough to defeat them. Just the facts, ma’am. Republican negative ad writers always delight in describing the Stimulus package […]
GROUND ZERO MOSQUE: THE REAL ISSUE
The proposed mosque near to ground zero is not really a religious institution. It would be — as many mosques throughout the nation are — a terrorist recruitment, indoctrination and training center. It is not the worship of Islam that is the problem. It is the efforts to advance Sharia Law with its requirement of […]
WILL HOUSE DEMS RISK A ROUT?
Published in the New York Post on August 18, 2010 With Republican prospects looking ever better for this fall, the House Democratic Campaign Committee and the PACs that follow its lead face tough triage decisions: Who will they fund? Republicans need 39 seats to take away the Democrats’ majority, so the temptation is to focus […]
THE TEA PARTY RESCUES AMERICA
For a decade, the left owned the streets. Subsidized by George Soros and energized by the Clinton impeachment in the 90s and the Iraq War since, it dominated the Internet and grass roots campaigning. Michael Moore’s movies – however misguided – enthused their ranks and catalyzed their efforts. ACORN worked to commit massive voter fraud […]
MICHELLE’S TRAVELS WILL TRIGGER BACKLASH
During the early Clinton years — 1993 and 1994 — the first couple vacationed in Martha’s Vineyard hobnobbing with celebrities and cruising on Ted Kennedy’s yacht. The result was that during each of the two summers, as they into the surf, so they dived in the polls. The last drop, after the summer of 1994, […]
A CONTRACT WITH AMERICA FOR 2010
Published on TheHill.com on August 9, 2010 My observations from the campaign trail are that this year’s elections will be a total and complete disaster for the Democratic Party. In fact, it will amount to the obliteration of an entire generation of Democratic officeholders. It will become very rare to find a youngish baby boomer […]
WHY WE NEED TO LET STATES GO BROKE
Published in the New York Post on August 10, 2010 Federal Band-Aids won’t cover the fiscal problems of such states as New York, California, Michigan and Connecticut forever. State bankruptcy and fundamental restructuring of state and local finance — and labor relations — is at hand. Take Connecticut. In the current fiscal year, $2 billion […]
STRATEGIC MEMO TO REPUBLICANS: DEPERSONALIZE THE ELECTION
The Democratic strategy for the 2010 elections is becoming apparent: Make each Congressional and Senatorial election a contest between two people and avoid a contest over the issues. Knowing that they lose over Obamacare, the economy, the stimulus, the secret ballot in union elections, and cap and trade, the Democrats are determined to convert the […]
THE COMING CATASTROPHE: STATE GOVERNMENTS
As Congress reconvenes next week to pass a $26 billion bailout of state and local governments entombed in their own deficits, we witness a foretaste of the crisis that will be the central event of the first half of next year: the collapse of state governments. As long as the Democrats control Congress, they will […]
WIKILEAKS AFGHAN PAPERS KILLING OBAMA
As we suggested in our recent column, the new Gallup/USA Today poll confirms that Obama’s ratings have collapsed as a result of the WikiLeaks release of Afghan War memos. Down from 46% in the most recent poll, Obama’s job approval has plunged to 41% — the lowest it has ever been in any major poll. […]
