The Silver State Chronicles

Self Important, Obnoxious Liberal Mothers In Top Form

Readers of The Silver State Chronicles know that I have particular contempt for many members of the class of people known as the modern American mother.

Yep, you talk a mean game about how hard your job is, and how important it is to be a ‘great’ mom, but the fact of the matter is you have mothered a collection of obnoxious, rude, self absorbed children. But when we look past the superficial tattoos and body piercings of your precious teens, and get a good look at the person beneath the surface, we actually recoil in horror that there is nothing very meaningful there either!

You failed at mothering, plain and simple. A visit to the neighborhood mall reveals the stunning accomplishments of your neglect. A legion of nihilistic youth with no depth of knowledge and no strength character whatsoever. All the talk in the world won’t undo the damage you have done. You’ve come a long way, baby.

So it comes to no surprise that the liberal activist group MoveOn.org had released an ad where a young mother tells GOP Presidential Candidate John McCain that he “can’t have” her precious infant Alex for his war.

Well, not quite

This funny, if long, song takes Barry Obama to the woodshed. The GOP is in desperate need to become more media savvy and hiring folks like this as part of a media strategy would be a great idea.

Which is probably why it won’t happen!

In any event, thanks to Goodies2Choose for putting it together! Great job!

Remember when we had a great President?

Today would have been the 97th birthday of my favorite modern-era President, Ronald Wilson Reagan! It’s times like this that I really miss Ronnie – we could use his wisdom and sure hand to help guide our nation throug the dangerous waters of the 21st Century.

Ronald Wilson Reagan
1911-2004

“We, the members of the New Republican Party, believe that the preservation and enhancement of the values that strengthen and protect individual freedom, family life, communities and neighborhoods and the liberty of our beloved nation should be at the heart of any legislative or political program presented to the American people.”

“We believe that liberty can be measured by how much freedom Americans have to make their own decisions, even their own mistakes.”

“Families must continue to be the foundation of our nation. Families-not government programs-are the best way to make sure our children are properly nurtured, our elderly are cared for, our cultural and spiritual heritages are perpetuated, our laws are observed and our values are preserved… We fear the government may be powerful enough to destroy our families; we know that it is not powerful enough to replace them.”

“Extreme taxation, excessive controls, oppressive government competition with business… frustrated minorities and forgotten Americans are not the products of free enterprise. They are the residue of centralized bureaucracy, of government by a self-anointed elite.”

“We must be ever willing to negotiate differences, but equally mindful that there are American ideals that cannot be compromised. Given that there are other nations with potentially hostile design, we recognize that we can reach our goals only while maintaining a superior national defense, second to none.”

“Our party must be based on the kind of leadership that grows and takes its strength from the people… And our cause must be to rediscover, reassert and reapply America’s spiritual heritage to our national affairs. Then with God’s help we shall indeed be as a city upon a hill with the eyes of all people upon us.”

I could go on and on about President Reagan, but I know if I did, and if he were here, his basic humility would prompt me to not go on at great length. With a smile & a twinkle in his eye, he would say “Vinnie Vegas, there you go again!”

Who Am I To Argue With Mr. Norris?

A couple of weeks ago Chuck Norris announced he was backing Governor Mike Huckabee in the GOP primaries. Well, the Governor just debuted his first commercial with Chuck, and it’s pretty funny.

Here’s to some good natured fun and a dose of humor into the rugged world of national politics!

GOP Wipeout?

Well, I have been busy for the last 10 days pouring over 100s of polls and election data. Notwithstanding chubby Chrissy Matthew’s prediction of a ‘Wipeout’ for the GOP, I don’t think the GOP will fare nearly as badly as Chrissy – and most political analysts – expect.

Here is my prediction for the US Senate and US House of Representatives:Senate: GOP 53, Dem 45, Ind 2
House: GOP 222, Dem 210

Admittedly, my predictions have a margin for error ranging between of -25% and +10%! ;-)

“When things get nut & crazy!”

Tan Nguyen, the GOP candidate for California’s 47th District, had an awesome political rally in his neighborhood, featuring “Stand By Our Tan,” by a rising Vietnamese singing sensation!

I say inspirational because it has inspired me to either move to the 47th district and vote for Tan (‘because after all, he’s a good man’), or to alternately become Vietnamese myself!

I wrote to his campaign and suggested some new lyrics, “Stand by your tan, but don’t stay in the sun for too long….” What do you think?
