President Bush came into office with great promise, and the reality has been one failure after another, and this is coming from a writer who was a conservative Republican before the President knew what the term meant. Lets use former President Ronald Reagans requirements for a successful Presidency. Do you remember the last debate between then President Jimmy Carter and candidate Reagan? The former Republican Governor of California asked the American people in closing if th…
This Is Not Your Dads Republican Party Anymore
Stock markets are strange because they reflect the sum total of all our hopes, fears and prejudices at the end of each day. Every so often something big comes along that can have very strong influence on the stock market, and the direction the market is going to take. Bear markets when they do come, come out of nowhere. Everybody is surprised by them, but once they happen, the pundits have what seem to be perfectly reasonable explanations for why they happen.
When Will America Wake Up?
In order to win the presidency in America, candidates must stir up the religious fervor of the voters (gay marriage/civil union) and then vocally (and in some cases visually) wear your (new) Evangelical beliefs on your sleeve. It used to be candidate vs. candidate, then party vs. party, big business vs. the common (wo)man, platform vs. platform, then region vs. region, but now none of that matters as a new America has emerged, an America in which the majority with a religious…
Decision 2006 – Is The Republican ‘cut, Run And Scare’ Strategy Running On Fumes?

I am a patriotic American. Politically, I consider myself slightly to the right of center. But if I held George Bush fully responsible for everything he has done, I’d consider him a war criminal. The only reason I don’t see him that way is that, after watching him, I have concluded that the man is simply unconscious. There’s nothing unusual about that – in fact it’s quite a common condition. Indeed I wonder just how much I am unconscious of. After all, we can’t be aware of wh…
George Bush’s Deception
Yesterday, I watched in disbelief George W. Bush’s convoluted speech to the House of Representatives. It was rather telling that this speech wasn’t in primetime but rather at 9 a.m. (6 a.m. in the West). I know a lot about politics since I write political thrillers (www.thetwentyfirstcentury.com) and I am constantly doing research for my books and articles. But it doesn’t take a writer of politics, or even one who doesn’t follow politics, to realize that what George Bush said…

Stock Research And Market To Be Affected Big Time Post November Election
Stock research normally tells us that pick the right stocks and it really doesnt matter what the market does. When you survey history however, this seemingly true statement turns out not to be the case. You can have all the stock research in the world, but if the market goes against you, it doesnt matter.
