On the Right Side: Others more deserving of Nobel Peace Prize

Albert Schweitzer, the Dalai Lama, Andrei Sakharov, Anwar Sadat, Menachem Begin, Martin Luther King Jr., Mother Teresa, Lech Walesa and Elie Wiesel. These, along with many other deserving individuals, were the type of persons who used to win the Nobel Peace Prize.....more>>

  • On the Right Side: Right is winning war of ideas
    Things are looking up for the conservative side of the Republican Party. No one could have predicted the overwhelming success of the two TEA parties held earlier this year. And then to top that success, we had the overwhelming turnout for the March on Washington on Sept. 12.

  • On the Right Side: Malpractice tort reforms needed now
    In my last column, I listed many ways for Congress to move slowly, cautiously and responsibly in trying to implement some kind of health care reform. I'll try to use the next one or two columns to expand on those possibilities.

  • On the Right Side: Don't let truth get in the way
    I had to wait to write this column until Obamas ego was assuaged by giving yet another prime-time campaign speech. He wanted bipartisanship, yet continually scolded Republicans and conservatives.

  • On the Right Side: Taxes OK if they are used well
    Radu Cristea is a special Romanian friend from Cluj-Napoca and has been indispensable in the work I am doing there. It would have been almost impossible for me to have accomplished anything without his advice and unselfish assistance.

  • On the Right Side: Politicians should lead by example
    It's hard to follow what is happening in the U.S. while being here in Romania, but it is quite easy to see that politicians are having a heck of a time trying to sell the idea of "Obamacare" to their constituents.

  • On the Right Side: Liberals must begin to wake up
    One of the hard parts of traveling is finding the time to write my column. I have to admit, I'm a news junkie, and USA Today and some of the local papers just don't cut it.

  • On the Right Side: Too much government is a problem
    Last Saturday, I attended a second local TEA Party. This one was held at Losie's on Oneonta's Southside. Once again, I was impressed with the organization of the event and the probably 200 normal, patriotic, good Americans who simply wanted to say they have had enough of too much government.

  • On the Right Side: How long till Obama is booted?
    I'm wondering how long it will be before the word "impeachment" starts being bantered about? The list of reasons to expel Obama keeps getting longer and stronger, and this is only five months into his reign. Everyone knows about his inexperience. His rhetorical abilities made people overlook this weakness. Even his eligibility to have become president is becoming an issue.

  • On the Right Side: Cheney is in the right
    I think the Democrats, Barack "shoot from the lip" Obama and "Queen" Nancy Pelosi, in particular, learned some valuable lessons recently. They learned the hard way not to go up against a Republican who has a backbone, experience, ethics, a protect-Americans-first philosophy and the truth on his side. That person is Dick Cheney.
