    Transgenderism will soon be cool

    I think most men want to be ogled, and therefore wouldn't mind a female invasion of the locker room.

    One word: Why?

    When will someone stand up for transracialism? I have a huuuuge appendage. Therefore, I've always felt black even though my genes are white. I should be eligible for affirmative action.

    Transgenderism will soon be cool

    I won't pretend to know the root causes of transgenderism and why someone might identify as the opposite gender when biologically something different. Nevertheless, the increased publicity for transgenderism may actually perpetrate more harm than good because now people will be allured by a...

    Ben Carson accidentally reveals Sarah Palin is on Trump’s short list for vice preside

    Re: Ben Carson accidentally reveals Sarah Palin is on Trump’s short list for vice pre Reinoe, Love has been in Washington for a year and a half now, still more D.C experience than Trump would bring, but I agree, her chance will come in the 2020s. It's too early for her. I don't know a whole lot...

    Bernie Sanders Plan

    I can't imagine that Democrats would be willing to make any deal with him. His petulant unwillingness to concede defeat to Clinton will cost her time, money, and effort better utilized toward the general election. The contested convention that Sanders promises to bring will inflict irreparable...

    Obama: Election Day should be a holiday [W:21]

    There should not be a holiday for voting, and I say that as someone who generally supports Republicans, the likely beneficiaries of such a change. As it stands now, conservatives are at a turnout disadvantage because of work and family responsibilities. Nevertheless, if someone is sufficiently...

    Trump resists calls to disclose his tax returns

    As mentioned several times prior, the release of tax returns by any candidate only serves a fodder for opponents of that candidate. People will always find something to criticize. It can only harm a campaign. No one is looking for a tax return in order to say, "Oh wow, that's impressive! I want...

    Ben Carson accidentally reveals Sarah Palin is on Trump’s short list for vice preside

    Re: Ben Carson accidentally reveals Sarah Palin is on Trump’s short list for vice pre She eviscerated Trump earlier in the campaign. She also opposes some of his biggest policy positions, including the wall. I would also be wary of creating the appearance of tokenism. Martinez may very well be...

    Polls: Trump Closing In On Clinton

    Polls at this stage of an election don't matter much. The candidate who wins will be the one who generates the most enthusiasm in the weeks leading up to the election. Other influential factors include perception of the economy and national security. Donald Trump has an excellent opportunity...

    President Romney. Vice-President Obama.

    It's already happened more than once in our history where neither candidate failed to garner the requisite number of electoral college votes. Thomas Jefferson defeated Aaron Burr by House vote. Twenty years later, John Quincy Adams defeated Andrew Jackson by House vote. It nearly happened in the...

    The thought of having an abortion makes my skin crawl

    Are there any reputable studies showing what percentage of "pro-choice" women are personally anti-abortion or personally pro-abortion? Male opinions hardly seem to matter, so seeing the female breakdown would be most interesting.

    The latest CNN poll doesn't look good for Obama.

    Obama can solidify his lead over Romney by starting another war. Perhaps by the time the election rolls around, the international community will finally decide to intervene in Syria. Military distractions often work to the advantage of the incumbent president. War allows a president to look...

    New evidence of Romney's hardship while on Mormon mission to France[W:3]

    Most academic scholars consider George Washington and Abraham Lincoln to have been among our greatest presidents, and both of them wore the uniform (Washington far more distinguished in his military record than Lincoln). I think veteran status can be a plus, but should not be a prerequisite for...

    A corporate run country

    Politicians only need to garner support from 51% of voters every 2-6 years. Corporations strive to win over as many people as possible, all the time. There are also many more business entities than political ones. This fosters breadth and a measure of balance. I am not going to defend the...

    That "Evil" Glenn Beck strikes again!

    When famous people tie their names to charities, the charities tend to raise more revenue than those without such celebrity cache. I doubt Glenn Beck is defrauding the IRS by making a profit on a virtual food drive. More likely, he wants to receive positive publicity, after years of negative...
