Democrat Leadership and "Lord of the Rings"

From moment one, the day after the November 2008 elections, my thoughts turned to Tolkein's "Lord of the Rings." I envisioned the scene of the Orcs and those on the dark side turning against one another, vying for power, devouring one another, as the good guys in the story get away to live another day.
Well, with the last month of fiasco after fiasco inside the Democrat party, and now with Harry Reid setting Obama straight this week that he doesn't work for him, then Democrat Reid flexing his muscles against Illinois and it's appointed Senator, then others' feelings hurt over not being told Leon Paneta was going to be over the CIA, it seems my correlation is about to start living itself out. I just hope it continues and the maniacal, power-hungry, Democrat political positioning continues and little to nothing gets done, saving the average American for another day. Our freedom from government is at stake and this is one of the biggest mistakes President Bush made during his terms. Mind you, I do thank George W. Bush for his passion for protecting us, but I am afraid that the enemy from within, an over-reaching Congress, Democrat and Republican, is to blame for our current economic woes. The Democrats, having had control of both sides of Congress for the last two years, have been horrible. They have fed on us, the American people. Yet, with full power, now, I really do not want to ponder what they can do to us for the next two years. I will have plenty of fodder on which to comment, I am certain.
As far as the good guys go, I am still looking for them. Watching. Waiting. Wondering who will emerge to lead the day for the Conservatives. I am looking for those who can handle the truth and expertly let it flow to the general public. I am looking for people to use their bully pulpits to swiftly and smoothly, like a beautiful parry, make the verbal strike that hits the American soul so that they understand the truth and will vote it's way.
I hope I haven't reached too far in my longings and found myself full-circle, back in the world of fiction.

Not McCain! or Huckabee.

Please, people, not McCain! He is moderate to liberal, not what we need! I can't even imagine who he would put into a Justice's seat, when needed, when he has done work against the 1st amendment with the McCain-Feingold bill!! He will be worse than Bush when it comes to pushing through Conservative legislation, using the Bully pulpit effectively, and signing Conservative legislation.
We need the most Conservative person at the head of the Republican ticket! It is vital. Mike Huckabee might learn to be more Conservative as he goes along, but I'm not betting on that or taking my chances. He is lacking in knowledge and has showed that on national and global issues, like bringing the Guantanamo detainees to U.S. soil. Huckabee showed his ignorance in the ABC debate on the laws that would then govern those detainees. I, a lowly on-looker, knew the folly that could bring. Fred Thompson had the best diatribe on Huckabee and his record in a small synopsis at the last FoxNews debate in SC.
Fred Thompson is the best. He just didn't show any enthusiasm until the debate in SC. It seemed he was doing all of this as a present for his wife or something. Nonetheless, he showed that he, by far, was the intelligent choice, the one who understands what is needed for our country.
McCain has had a horrible track record on Conservative issues. McCain-Feingold, the Gang of 14, a showing of temperment that is not Presidential, and that horrible, cheesy smile he gives accompanied with that wink. If voters thought Bob Dole was too old, I can't see where they would find a difference here.

Sid "Vicious" Blumenthal arrested

Wow... 70 miles an hour (or more?) in a 35 mph zone while allegedly driving drunk. Do you think it is interesting that no one heard about this on the day of the NH primary since it happened the night before... you know he is an advisor to that crying woman running for President?

So, Sid Vicious, the one who sued Drudge, the one who attacked the Arkansas State Troopers for the Clintons, the one who many readers responded with glee to the article about his arrest for Aggravated DWI, is the one who will possibly face a few days in jail. The people who commented after this article were incredibly tough on Sidney... and I couldn't be happier to see that someone remembers. The saddest part, and one that always makes my heart droop, is the bloggers who recanted how their loved ones have been killed by drunk drivers. Here is the article, postings follow it:
http://www.blog.newsweek.com/blogs/stumper/archive/2008/01/11/blumenthal-on-the-boil.aspx

I would like to see what "DocPolitic" said come to fruition: "Forget the booking photo...I'd love to see the failed sobriety test! It's got to be on video...."

Mark my words, however, that he will plead a deal to get no jail time. In my opinion he should face whatever the maximum sentence is allowed under New Hampshire law. My guess is that he will weasel his way out of it somehow.
