Bloggers Wanted

We are looking for a few bloggers with a political perspective, good writing skills, and the ability to craft a good argument. PoliWatch will be changing its format to one in which a writer from each column will offer their perspective on the same issue, which confronts American governance or politics today.

In other words, PW writers will debate an issue, and visitors will debate the writers. Are you up to it?

If you are interested, please use the Email PW Manager link in the right hand Menu column. Be sure to include your name, which column you wish to write in, and a link to where your current blogging can be reviewed.

Back to Basics: GOP

I apologize for being away so long. I was afflicted by the same sense of disappointment and despair over the demise of my Grand Old Party as most of my fellow Republicans. But, we are getting refreshed, inspired, and motivated again as we in the Party work to rebuild it from our principles outward. Following are some of the reasons I am becoming hopeful again.

Republicans Role in a Democratic Government

What will be the role of the remaining Republicans in the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives now that Democrats control the whole shebang? There is a lot of discussion on this topic taking place, and a tug-o-war taking place between the GOP leadership and many of the remaining elected Republicans. I can't know how this will turn out, but, some options appear clearer than others.

High Finance Woes

I can't offer any insights or solutions to the financial, so called, crisis. I am too young and undereducated being just out of High School. I did take an economics course. That doesn't qualify me to offer a knowlegable opinion on what has taken place these last 9 days or so in Congress. I am however, a newly registered voter who is watching the news and reading the blogs. I am not impressed. In fact, I am angry!

The myth of America's private health care system

All this blather about the evils of socialized medicine and a government controlled health care system illustrates the utter ignorance of the facts surrounding this issue. If you listen to the goofballs spouting this nonsense; it's as if there isn't a problem with our health care system at all.

Changiness has come

For the past couple of months, those on the Republican side have been condescendingly posturing about President Obama and his claim that 'CHANGE' would come to Washington. "When is this 'change thing' coming? They mocked.

Well CHANGE sure has come and to those most affected by the change, many aren't liking it.

Arlen Specter and the tranparency gap

I recently made a phone call to all of my federal elected officials to voice my disdain for all that is A.I.G. and like companies that thumb their nose at the American people. I felt it was my civic duty to voice my opinion to the elected officials of my state; what I didn't realize is that some elected officials still feel they aren't working for the American people.

Obama: United States President

If there were any lingering doubts as to the presidential mettle of Barack Obama in the minds of objective citizens, they should have been erased with last night's speech before the U.S. Congress and to the American people. His plan and assurances offer America a way out of the crises and fears that are falling upon more Americans with each passing day.

Sarah Palin Resigns Governorship

Sarah Palin - Times Online.jpgDoes one pat her on the back, or ballyhoo her for reneging on her contract with Alaskan voters to represent their interests, instead of her own? In her inexplicable announcement, delivered in her unique meandering, hyper, and hop-scotch spontaneous manner of public speaking, she has left NY Times writers scratching their heads as to what her reasons and motives really are.

Kicking the 'Dog'

Most of us witnessed someone getting angry at someone else they can't strike out at, and going home and kicking the dog, instead. Poor dog. Nancy Pelosi has become the Republican's dog they love to kick because they can't seem to land a blow on Obama. She is a liberal and a female with power in a traditional man's role, and for many Republicans, that makes her the 'bitch' they love to kick if they can't undo Obama.

Credit Cards: No relief for the abused.

If you have been abused by your credit card companies, don't look to the government for redress of abuses. The legislation which has passed both houses of Congress and making its way to Pres. Obama for signing, offers nothing to those consumers who have already been raped by their credit card banks and companies. The bill offers prophylactic measures only, going forward. Nothing retroactive for the millions hit by usurious rates and fees.

Well intended Reformers Don't Get It

America doesn't have to worry about an Article V convention. America doesn't have to worry about Congressional term limits. America doesn't have to worry about any 3rd party coming to power through the likes of GOOOH or the Independence Caucus. The reason is very simple.
