Governor Steve Beshear is working hard to help Kentucky felons. He has granted more than 700 pardons to convicted felons since March including murderers, rapists and sexual abusers. Now he is doing his best to restore their right to vote and run for office. Apparently the prior requirements to pay a $2 fee, write an essay and get three recommendations to regain the right to vote was considered too burdensome. It is good to know the Governor is so busy helping somebody. Read more

The German newspaper Der Spiegel reports today that Barack Obama cancelled a visit to the wounded troops at U.S. bases in Germany. He gave a speech to a crowd of Europeans instead and got a workout. We suspect he was actually attending the Love Parade.

Gov. Beshear changed state policy regarding lowering flags to half-staff. Previously, flags were lowered for the death of any soldier killed who was stationed at Fort Campbell or Fort Knox, regardless of where they were from. Now, flags will only be lowered for Kentucy-born soldiers. This policy has caused some controversy among various veterans groups.

How Have We Gone From Reagan To The Possibility Of Obama?
Filed Under Opinion/Editorial | 2 Comments
John Adams wrote:
“We have no government armed with power capable of contending with passions unbridled by morality and religion.” “Religion & virtue are the only foundations, not only of republicanism and of all free government, but of social felicity under all governments and in all the combinations of human society.” “Statesmen, my dear sir, may plan and speculate for liberty, but it is religion and morality alone, which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand.”
How is it that we have fallen so far that we are seriously considering the election of a man who is a socialist and an antagonist to mainstream Christian beliefs? Read more

Filed Under Kentucky | Leave a Comment
Councilman Doug Hawkins has filed a resolution with the Louisville Metro Council calling for Gov. Beshear to end Reformulated Fuel Gas (RFG) sold in Louisville. RFG has been controversial since Governor Brereton Jones volunteered Louisville’s participation in the federal program in 1993. It is estimated that eliminating RFG will save Louisvillians 5-10% on gasoline.

Senator Barack Obama was in Iraq yesterday. Despite his first hand observations of the success of the surge in Iraq, Obama still refuses to admit it. In an interview with Terry Moran of ABC news, Senator Obama could not bring himself to support the surge, even in hindsight. Senator McCain has supported the surge from the beginning when it was very unpopular. McCain has repeatedly stated that he would rather lose an election than see the U.S. lose a war. Tucker Bounds a spokesman for the McCain campaign stated in reference to Senator Obama’s position… “A candidate who places his political ambition ahead of our national interest does not pass the threshold to be commander-in-chief.”

Filed Under Kentucky, News | Leave a Comment
Recent polls of the Third Congressional District race show clear gains for Anne Northup on John Yarmuth. In addition, Northup outraised Yarmuth during the last quarter $625,000 to $363,000. Yarmuth’s stubborn opposition to domestic oil drilling is believed to be playing a significant role in these results. It looks like we have a real horse race!
