"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt." -- JP Curran, 1790

Shark bite, Hoohaha!

They are hungry and starting to bite!! As I previously wrote, there is a certain gap between the expectations Barack has set and what he can deliver.

Victor Davis Hanson provides a historical reality to campaign rhetoric

Meanwhile the Gay leadership is biting back! They are upset with the selection of Rick Warren to deliver the invocation at Barack inauguration. Rick Warren is the head pastor of the Saddleback Church in California. An Evangelical who opposed Prop 8 in CA and has been more left-leaning than most Evangelical Christians, is an enemy of the gay rights movement. Others are calling it his first "big" political mistake.

Will Bruce Springsteen be able to sing Born in the USA?

Rumors and speculation points to an upcoming announcement that Bruce Springsteen will be performing at the Obama Presidential inauguration in January. During the campaign he was an regular campaign performer and even released a new song during the campaign, "Working on a Dream". He now appears to be working on releasing a full new album to coincide with the inauguration event in hopes to capitalize on publicity and boost turnout.

The question that needs to be asked is whether he can sing his classic song "Born in the USA". With pending legal filings from Alan Keyes over Barack's birth certificate and questions regarding his birth in the U.S., maybe it is only appropriate for him to sing it as a question "Born in the USA?".
