A Masterful Stroke

Morning in Alaska. Juneau family hour. Big oil, small town. St. Paul in St. Paul. Getting to know Toby Keith. Roush stuff. Plus more.

(Page 2 of 18)

br> W. Sand Lake, New York /p> p> Peter Ferrara writes: “With one bold masterstroke, everything that was so wrong with American politics has been made right.” Really? In spite of all the hype by conservatives and the GOP, there are many people who are thinking John McCain just had his own Putin moment. Just as W’s judgment proved ridiculously flawed, McCain’s may too. There are many very interesting things being revealed about Sarah Palin and the digging has just begun. Stay tuned. br> — Mike Roush /p>

Mr. Ferrara, I don’t know what is about your articles. They aren’t revelations to me. All your points, and they are good ones, have been well known to me. Yet, when I read your articles, I find myself far more comfortable with my support for John McCain.

p>I’ve called McCain a ‘Moderate-Conservative.’ In this case, my moderate statement is not a condition on his conservatives, which I believe to be quite strong, but rather on his view of government’s role. My main concern with McCain is that he seems to believe that government really can do good things if the right people are in control. He needs to remember Reagan’s words “Government isn’t the answer to the problems, government is the problems.’ And I believe that it is this belief of his that leads him into dangerous territory, as it did with McCain-Feingold and other proposals. However, he’s not nearly the worry for conservatives that he has been portrayed to be. So, thank you, Mr. Ferrara for your articles. Please, keep ‘em coming. br> — Charles Campbell br> Austin, Texas /p> p> Obama has never been vetted. br> — Ann Carmichael

4 years later and American politics is still as partisan and indignant as it was when this article was written. How do we as a nation dig ourselves out of this mess?
