The plot thickens

8 October 2008 - 2:38am
When one asks who has benefited from the current Wall Street/sub-prime mortgage crisis, the media would have you believe that it was the Republicans or the Wall street investors or the banks who made out like bandits. But as the investigations continue by those in the new media, we are finding out that the Democrats and their leftist friends were the primary beneficiaries of this mess. further John J.

Raising the real issues about the Leftist Obama

4 October 2008 - 8:47am
It is clear that the media is not going to raise any questions about Obama's connections with his Chicago pols and crooks. It is clear that the media is not going to talk about how Democrats running Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac created this financial problem. Or as Thomas Sowell said in a recent article, it appears that the facts do not matter. so the McCain people better star getting more John J.

Let Sarah go to Michigan

3 October 2008 - 8:17pm
When the news came out that the McCain campaign was leaving Michigan, the press was gleeful. McCain was giving up on an important blue collar state. Now Sarah Palin has asked to go there and see if she can connect with the people of the state. Let her go. Let her try to jump start the pro-life working class Catholic and evangelical voters. Be bold. Do not be afraid. And please do not John J. Jakubczykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08293621396979440833noreply@blogger.com

Preparing for the next debate

3 October 2008 - 7:00pm
John McCain had better be prepared for the next debate with Barack Obmam. Barack will come out swinging. He will attempt to land a major punch in order to give the press the excuse to call the fight over. The media tried to do that last week after the so called financial crisis, but Sarah Palin blocked that move with her healthy effort in her debate with Joe Biden. So now the press will attemptJohn J.

Gwen Ifill Should Step Down

1 October 2008 - 3:49am
The recent disclosure that PBS anchor and journalist Gwen Ifill has a book coming out on the emergence of Black power in the politics which centers on the candidacy of Barack Obama should disqualify her from being the moderator and questioner at the vice presidential debate scheduled for Thursday October 2, 2008 in St. Louis. According to a story published on World Net Daily Ifill spent a great John J. Jakubczykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08293621396979440833noreply@blogger.com

The devil is in the details

23 September 2008 - 10:25am
The current discussions about the imperative need to "bail out the financial industry" lest things get worse has me concerned. Perhaps it is the natural skepticism that should rise to the surface anytime one wants to have you sign on to anything to quickly. Perhaps it is the concern that everyone is screaming that the sky is falling while the facts are still be determined. Perhaps it is learning John J.

Accountability

16 September 2008 - 12:28pm
Accountability Should I repeat myself. After listening to the stories coming from the financial world over the mess on Wall Street and throughout the mortgage market including Fannie Maw and Freddy Mac, it appears the some people from the Clinton Administration have been raiding the vault in a manner similar to the ENRON scandal. So rather than blame President Bush for this mess, perhaps John J. Jakubczykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08293621396979440833noreply@blogger.com

Biden - Another Liberal who wants to spend our money - not his own

There is an interesting story by Byron York on the subject of Joe Biden's charitable contributions for the last ten years. Reporting on Biden's disclosure, York lists the last ten years as follows: Here is a chart of the Bidens’ giving for the years covered by the tax returns: Adjusted Gross Income Charity 1998 John J.

Life Happens

8 September 2008 - 5:56pm
It is simply amazing to read from the different corners all of the comments and criticism of Sarah Palin over the unplanned pregnancy of her daughter Bristol. First the media led the charge, hoping to knock the governor off of the mountain top which she had ascended to the joyous shouts of conservative Republicans. Now we read the various "conservative" articles complaining that we all have notJohn J. Jakubczykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08293621396979440833noreply@blogger.com

This Sunday's Readings Apply to Nancy Pelosi and her Archbishop

7 September 2008 - 1:36pm
The current controversy involving Nancy Pelosi and her statements regarding the Catholic Church’s teaching on the subject of protecting human life has provoked a response from a number of bishops throughout the United States. In each of these statements the bishops have made it clear that the information regarding the humanity of the unborn child is not something based upon religious teaching or John J.

above my pay grade - Obama

By now the conversation on Barack Obama’s answers to the abortion questions are traveling across the internet. YouTube videos, along with the commentaries addressing his statements are available to all. So given all of these avenues for review, I hope these comments are not merely repetitive but offer some additional insight for those perusing this site.

the proposed Democrat platform on abortion

12 August 2008 - 9:53am
The Democratic Party strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v Wade and a woman's right to choose a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay, and we oppose any and all efforts to weaken or undermine that right.The Democratic Party also strongly supports access to affordable family planning services and comprehensive age-appropriate sex education which empower people to make informed John J.

do not sit out this election

5 August 2008 - 1:23pm
I have noticed that there is a move among some disgruntled conservatives who, having failed to advance their choice for president, have decided to encourage voters to choose "none of the above" come Election Day. Such action on the part of such voters could prove disastrous for the country and the future of our children and grandchildren. It reminds one of the playground antics of children who John J.

The Trenton Times news exposure continues

The story about the Trenton Times misrepresenting the Catholic position on the lie issues and the responsibility of voters has received more attention. Deal Hudson wrote on InsideCatholic.com that There will be much media mischief aimed at Catholic voters between now and November 4.

Obama is Clueless as to Education and Helping the Poor

2 August 2008 - 11:14am
Barack Obama has stated his opposition to vouchers and tax credits and other means to assist lower and middle income families in their efforts to find a decent education for their children. Especially in poor and working class neighborhoods, substandard schools are a major reason for the increase in crime, the continuation of poverty and a general depression in efforts to improve those John J.

Oil prices continue to fall ...hmmmm

So now that the speculators realize that the American people are not going to continue to get hosed, will the congress pay attention ? As we all cut back on our driving, the people are asking Congress to open up the drilling. and the Democrats who want $8.00/gallon gas prices continue to say NO.

Sowing the seeds of confusion

After reading an article in The Times on New Jersey.com. I found it necessary to write the author Jeff Trently and correct him on a few errors. The letter below is self explanatory. Expect to see more of these efforts to sow confusion among Catholic voters as November comes closer.

Oil prices drop - hmmmm

18 July 2008 - 11:49am
Last month I suggested that perhaps the rise in the spot oil price just might be related to the fact that there has been an increase in world demand coupled with our refusal to develop new sources. I urged Senator McCain to call for offshore drilling and opening up new sources along with the development of new refineries. I suggested that this is a national security issue. Well since that time John J. Jakubczykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08293621396979440833noreply@blogger.com
