Hillary Clinton is very smart. Too smart. She makes few mistakes, and leaves little room for conservatives to pick apart her Senate voting record as liberal. The Clintons have always known how to erase their paper trail, which is why they got away with Whitewater, Mena, drug-smuggling, the killing of their rivals and witnesses, and other bad acts. Now we are faced with the prospect of their return to power, only this time their power will make the Bill Clinton Presidency look like nothing. Bill wants to be Secretary-General of a U.N. infused with greater international power in light of American unpopularity, which the Clintons are delighted about. Imagine Bill in charge of the U.N. and Hillary in the White House. This is a scenario that should make people become religious, because if it happens, God alone can help us!

The Bill Clinton Presidency was just a warm-up, a prelude, to a greater disaster. Imagine if you will (as Rod Serling would say in a "Twi-Light Zone" episode) a world in which the U.S. has been weakened, giving greater power to the U.N., led by a new Secretary-General named Bill Clinton, in league with President Hillary Clinton. This creates in the mind of good people some kind of evil cabal beyond mere power, bad policy or other Earthly ruminations. Now you are talking about a scenario that favors Dark Forces. This is the kind of thing the Evil One would do. The question then is whether the Clintons are part of the Evil One's plan, knowingly or unknowingly. Is this a question we really want to get the definitive answer to? America - and the world - be warned: Do not give these people the power they crave!

George W. Bush is not highly eloquent nor perfect. But he is honest, bold, backs up what he says, is not afraid to use American strength in a very real battle between good and evil, and he is Christian. That goes a long, long way by me, pardner.

The fact that the Western news media is liberal and biased in favor of Democrats is simply factual knowledge possesed by millions of Americans who can read, have access to information, and care to analyze it honestly.

What is less known is that the liberal media helps Republicans. How? Over time, so many people have developed factual knowledge of liberal bias, and see that it is a bad thing, that they favor the right. Republicans have always won the White House, and now they win the Congress, the Senate, governorships, and state legislatures. As irritating as it is to hear, Republican media strategists should just let the Left keep lying, at such time as voters make note of these lies and back the GOP as a result. The Left is so bullheaded and full of itself that they do not see this reality, and apparently will not learn any lesons from their repeated mistakes.

During the Clinton years, there was a marginal swing towards moderation, caused by a combination of conservative talk radio, Fox News, and the Clinton scandals that could not be ignored. During the 2000 election, the Leftist media actually played it fairer than usual, which helped George W. Bush. After 9/11, they swung even further towards the middle, actually rooting for America, but since the Iraq War the media has become more hateful towards the right than any time since Ronald Reagan, or perhaps Nixon.

Despite all this noise, the GOP will gain in every seat of political power in November. The Left will look at all its efforts and wonder where it all went wrong, just as the New York Times' Pauline Kael declared after Richard Nixon won 49 states and 62 percent in 1972, "How did he win? I don't anybody who voted for him."

Call conservatives what you want - the Christian Coalition, the Silent Majority, the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy - but they remain and shall continue to be millions of patriotic American citizens who register and vote, and they are not found at the same cocktail parties with Pauline Kael.

There are very few, if any, liberals who cause the kind of visceral dislike of them that the Clintons engender. Teddy Kennedy, for instance, is despised for his views and his unimpressive lifestyle, but the Clintons are even more despised. There is no way of proving this or making real sense of it, but one theory is that, like Kennedy's father, Joseph, the Clintons might not just be power hungry and bad for America, but actually bad in the most primal sense. It is hard to believe that the anti-Christ is an American, but when one looks hard at the faces of Bill and Hillary Clinton they see something dishonest, scheming and unrighteous that goes beyond the usual political machinations. America, watch out for these people.

Sean Hannity is one of the leading voices of American conservatism at a time in which this ideology is at its height. Hannity represents the straightforward, mainstream conservatism of the 2000s, which is quite open, honest, engaging and accepting. Their is a sense of triumphalism or righteousnes to Hannity's message, which at its core comes from the fact that, after 2000 years of modern history, conservatism (in conjunction with Christianity) is the winning ideology of Mankind.

Even though Hannity is not from the South, he loves country music and is popular with that crowd. This is a very telling development, and speaks to the New South in a positive way. There was a time when Southerners would dismiss Hannity as a "damn Yankee," but the fact that Hannity is popular with them is a sign that, over the past 30 years, the South has probably made greater positive strides and improvements than any people or region on Earth in the past century. This I say despite arguments that Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan are now Democratic, but they "accomplished" this only after we defeated them and "forced" them to.

The South, on the other hand, voluntarily changed its ways, and it is conservative Republicanism, of the kind Hannity represents, that husbanded this monumental sea change in American poilitics.

"The Passion of the Christ" affirmed for me the essential Truth of my life, which is that Jesus Christ is Lord. With free will I do make the choice and proclaim in any and all ways for all to know that I believe in Him, I reject Satan and all his works, Jesus died for my sins, and that I am a terrible sinner whose salvation can only come about through the forgiveness of Christ.

Michael Moore takes some facts and makes documentaries in which some small percentage of what he says is true, and mixes that with a huge portion of lies. Does this make the sum of the whole True? Answer: No.

This is the preferred method of con artists, who desire to use truth to build their larger lies. This is the identified method of Michael Moore, and the fact that this is his method is that with which is known by me and millions of humans capable of reading and analyzing information.

The question is, Does Al Franken speak the Truth? Upon analysis and conclusion, the answer to this question is: No!

The "Left Behind" series has not become one of the most successful best sellers in history because Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins are great writers, or even because it has a superb plot. They would probably be the first to admit that they just managed to tap into the fact that Christianity is what billions of people throughout history have thirsted for, and because those of us who believe (as I freely choose to do) that God makes all things possible. Apocalypse may happen, it may or may not happen in my lifetime. I am not going to argue against the concept. I choose to believe and to hope that my belief and my soul, despite my numerous sins, will be rewarded by Christ's salvation.

There is good and evil in this world, and they are constantly battling each other. These battles manifest themselves through wars, politics, the media, hi-jacked religions, slavery, terrorism and the very essence of Satan's method, which is to get good people to do bad things.

It is amazing to me how many people refuse to acknowledge the Truth about God, Christ, Satan and the universe, despite what is presented to us every day. The way Nicolae mesmerizes people in the book hits home, and reminds me of my theory that many successful people in Hollywood, rock music, or other endeavors of fame and fortune very possibly made deals with the devil, and their achievements are a result of their Faustian bargains.
