I think we all know, that this page is predominantly right leaning. I don't have the actual statistics, but would guess it is probably 90% or better conservative. Undoubtedly, many people of all persuasions read the page, but few post. (Steve, can you tell us ball park numbers of hits, and posts, etc...

President Obama or is it President Pelosi?
(Preview)
Did Secretary Obama hide behind closed doors to sign this last bill. Why is he not taking care of business. If the American People do not just rebel at this point and start Screaming at the top of their lungs... we then have to get ready to meekly accept what we are told to do. Yes it has been 50 days.....

Bush and Chaney were the two biggest terrorists this world has ever seen. Bush just didn't bankrupt our country, he broke the world. Your saying that Obama isn't your president but at least he is trying to fix the mistakes that were made by your president

President Obama had to call the Press back????
(Preview)
When President Obama was asked about Socialism (sp) he did not answer..he thought it was a joke. When he figured that it was not he called the Press back to finally answer their questions.. -- Edited by vko at 21:29, 2009-03-09

I just read a post on the Herald Guestbook that warrranted, at least in my opinion, a response. Due to the possibly controversial content, I am not sure if the Herald will print it. Either way, I want to get the subject out for discussion.... On the concept of "one Sovereign God". No matte...

As I sit here watching C-Span (a great source to get the true facts on what the politicos are saying) I can't help but wonder if our political parties will EVER see eye to eye on how to get the country back on track. The Democrats are proposing a spending bill that will supposedly create jobs and put a litt...

I went to Rickard last night and watched a video they are showing to the 4th and 5th grade girls and 5th grade boys.

President Obama's Picks in White House
(Preview)
I just can not let this go. How many picks have skeletons in their closet or just quits because they can not get in line. Hate Bush all you want - President Bush and Laura Bush opened their doors to the Obama Family.. It went smoothly....and now it is as bumpy as our highways. I am impatient. sorry.

Tax on Mineral Owners

Is this really fair. Minerals owners don't get one cent unless the minerals are leased. So if you own the Land you pay taxes. If you own the Minerals the state wants 2.00 per mineral.
