We cannot afford moderation in times like this -- when the business of protecting our home life from meddling intrusion, protecting our homeland from foreign invasion, and protecting our commerce and our livelihoods from reckless government restriction. This is not the time to bend our spines or bow our heads. The founding fathers did not intend for us to politely implore the masters of government for freedom like Oliver Twist begging Mr. Bumble to fill his meager bowl with more gruel: “Please sir, I want some more.” Only extreme yes, extreme – extremely, extremely extreme – vigilance, forceful, rabblerousing, aggressive, unyielding vigilance can safeguard our inalienable rights.

Thank goodness. They are becoming the voice of reason right now. Watch them single handedly flip the seats next year in Congress. At this point, I even think the Senate is attainable. There are 19 seats each open for both parties (not open, but on the ballot). Things are going to be interesting, particularly is the Senate does the sneaky plan of attaching the health care bill to another bill as an amendment to avoid a real cloture vote.

She's a LOT like Sarah Palin. The looks may draw you in, if you're a guy, but you stay for the substance! MKH is one sharp gal. American will be in very good hands with this younger generation of intelligent common sense conservatives at the helm. Conservative women are indeed the future of America. They are the real feminists, and the real leaders of a movement. One of the few reasons to watch Bill O’Reilly anymore is her weekly segment.
