Posted at 7:24pm on Jul. 11, 2008 Senator McCain will get my vote.
By Tim Schieferecke
I wanted to take this opportunity to pass on a recent letter to the editor I read in the Topeka Capital Journal. It helped me soften my own hard opinion about Senator McCain.
http://www.cjonline.com/stories/070808/opi_301147857.shtml
Senator McCain will not only get my vote because he's not Obama, he will get it because he's a decent, honorable man. I've recently seen in him the ability to adapt to more conservative positions in the effort to meet current hard edged realities head on. As he does so, I would like to encourage others to reconsider Senator McCain with his recent improvements in mind. As opposed to Obama, this historical and existential election is too important for us to lose over the real but infinitely smaller disagreements we have with our candidate.

Posted at 11:36am on Jul. 10, 2008 The Fly-By Media
By Tim Schieferecke
Have you ever stopped to wonder why,
half told truths and half baked lies,
corrupt the press like deadly tumors,
withholding facts, extolling rumors?
Fluttering, fanciful, fanatic flies,
swarm and blitz storm our conservative skies.
They're species specific and parasites plain,
Elephantus Carnivorous, conservatives' bain.
Fluttering, fanciful, fanatic flies
have singular purpose and myopic eyes.

Posted at 9:29pm on Jul. 7, 2008 Secret Agent Ma'am- Or My Ode To Valerie
By Tim Schieferecke
She's the Ma'am who feigns her life's in danger,
though in Who's Who pages found this "spy's" no stranger.
She sent her man to fake, the facts about yellow cake,
the lie that caused our Nation such great sorrow.
Secret Agent Ma'am, Secret Agent Ma'am,
you hate that we don't wonder, why your lies are oh so Plame.
Foreswear you weren't the one to send Joe to find,
the "reasons" for you libs to Iraq undermine.

Posted at 9:24pm on Jul. 1, 2008 My letter to the editor on the discharge petition for the Broadcaster Freedom Act
By Tim Schieferecke
I just wanted to post a quick diary in reference to a letter to the editor I wrote in the Topeka Capital Journal 6/.27/08. http://www.cjonline.com/stories/062708/opi_296139604.shtml
I'm letting you know about it to encourage you to do likewise. We need conservative talk radio to help protect our rights and see to it that truth is spoken on a daily basis or we're screwed. Please spend part of your time and conservative passion in the attempt to communicate to others not in the know.

Posted at 8:06am on Jul. 1, 2008 Patriotism- Darwinist vs. Originalist
By Tim Schieferecke
Yesterday when Senator Obama went to Independence, Kansas to talk about patriotism, it got me thinking. Now, I imagine there's about 300 million different exact versions of what it means to be a "patriot" in this country. From where I'm standing though, I reckon these 300 million versions can be classified down to two distinct groups, Originalist Patriots and Darwinist Patriots.
An Originalist Patriot is one that believes in the original meaning of our Constitution. An Originalist Patriot is one that jealously guards the God given rights layed down in that precious original document. An Originalist Patriot is one that puts no other document before the Constitution in deciding ANYTHING. When it comes to any sort of "change" in the fundamental meanings layed down therein, an Originalist Patriot demands the change be difficult to accomplish and never knee-jerked into existence.

Posted at 8:27pm on Jun. 27, 2008 "NUTS!" The answer to el Rushbo's dilemma on Obama
By Tim Schieferecke
When Rush was struggling a bit with the question of how to deal with Obama's daily flip-flops, out and out lies, and unscripted bumbling it got me to thinking. Obama needs a word of his own, a word that he can be nailed with, a word that needs no great understanding to comprehend. NUTS! is it. Let me tell you my favorite story about the word and its historical meaning to me.
First off, I'm a history buff. I love learning American history. I love personalizing it by digging into what historic figures were really like personally. I love the rough, tough, and unfiltered figures that made, make, and will continue to make this beloved Nation of ours great. I want to tell you about the respect I have for the 101st Airborne's WWII General Anthony McAuliffe, and how his resolve as the accidental Commander of the battered Bastards of Bastogne prevented the Germans from turning things around.

Posted at 11:19am on Jun. 24, 2008 Certainty vs. Uncertainty
By Tim Schieferecke
"You'll be fine, just keep'r in front of you Timbo", my Dad would always say. "If she circles you, circle with her." (Insert the sound of 1200 pounds of angry mamma cow, tongue hanging out, eyes a blazin' with focused hatred and fury at the audacious 120 pound kid holding her sick calf down, here). "Dad, she's gonna take me!" I'd yell, "hurry up! over and over while thinking of my own mortality, and how I was going to hold baby bovine down and keep turning with big mamma at the same time. Dad would eventually saunter over, a syringe or bolus pill in his calm hands. He'd walk right past big mamma to me and the calf, do his thing, and be smiling ear to ear the whole time.

Posted at 11:53pm on Jun. 17, 2008 Every Therm Is Sacred
By Tim Schieferecke
I've always wanted to do a satire with a Monty Python tune. This one seemed fitting under current circumstances.
There are few in this world worse than leftists.
Their core views for our power lack Zen.
Some of them truly follow Joe Stalin, but
we've never been one of them.
We're for drilling domestic.
And have been since before Al's E-Porn.
And the one thing we say about domestic is,

Posted at 9:24pm on Jun. 16, 2008 McCain is no Manchurian Candidate, but let's send him 52 Red Queens anyway.
By Tim Schieferecke
We do have a Manchurian Candidate, but I can assure you that it is not John McCain. While striking comparisons can be made between Senator Iselin and Senator Obama, Senator McCain does not "my friends" fit the mold.
No "my friends", John McCain is Ben Marco, but with one caveat. He never has understood the import of the prima facie facts staring him directly in the face. He's never awakened from the dream or slept to see the ending of what we all can see so plainly. As such, he doesn't understand the import of zealously fighting the Marxists at our door. Maybe he has dream interrupting sleep apnea.

Posted at 3:32pm on Jun. 5, 2008 Kathleen Sebelius held a reception for Tiller the Killer at the Kansas Governor's Mansion
By Tim Schieferecke
My leftist Governor Kathleen Sebelius is committing one political blunder after another. First, she stopped a 4 billion $$$ clean burning coal fired plant from being constructed. Then she lost us another 10-12 billion dollars in investment for an oil refinery because the investors were scared of her actions with said coal plant. She is out of control!
Now she has been caught holding a reception for George "Mengele" Tiller the killer in our Governor's Mansion. He is one of only a few partial birth abortion doctors in the U.S., and he has been one of her largest campaign contributors as well. I'm bringing this to your attention because I'm positive that Sebelius is on Obama's short list of Veep picks. In my estimation, he needs a woman with executive experience, and she fits that bill quite nicely. Please check out the following links from the Topeka Capital Journal and Operation Rescue. The O.R. link has pictures of Tiller the Killer with Sebelius in the mansion. He supposedly won an "auction" put on by the Greater Kansas City Women's Political Caucus that included the reception. I think I'll go swig some Pepto-Bismal, I'm feeling pretty sick from this.
