There is a war of ideals going on today. The fighting is within the Republican party and it is ferocious to say the least. On one side, there are the centrist blue blood country club republicans and on the other side are the social and fiscal conservatives.
I was just listening to Lou Dobbs and he had on a man who is pushing for the GOP to become more centrist. He was a former staff member of Rudy Giuliani, unfortunately I didn't remember his name. It was really funny to listen to really. Rush Limbaugh had mentioned that the media would make it a habit of bring on analysis of people who lost and ask them how their party can win. So in this case, it was the loser (Giuliani) who lost to the loser (McLame) telling us that conservatism doesn't work and that it can't win.
He went on to say that Social conservatives are a dying breed. He pulled some numbers out of his ass that McCain only won voters over 65 and voters in towns no larger than 50,000 in size. That may be true, but it doesn't mean that social conservatives are scarce, it just means that many social conservatives did not vote, or voted for Obama out of spite.
If it is true that Social conservatism is dying, then explain to me how in the biggest liberal state in the country, Proposition 8 (the vote to ban gay marriage) won the ballot. We won 52% against 48% and of those 48%, many may include people who still think homosexuality is wrong, but voted against it on more libertarian reasons of non intrusion. Heck even Obama himself, mister radical left wing has stated his opposition to homosexuality, even if they choose to vote in favor for non intrusion reason.
So don't try to tell me social conservatism is dead. This is a concentrated attack by the country club republicans to team up with the left wing media and destroy the traditionalist conservative movement. Our only response is to clear them out.

McCain: So we cool, dawg? .... Not exactly
I have made my choice to vote for McCain. It was refreshingly challenging to actually think about the consequences of my vote. I weighed voting, not voting and getting others to vote McCain while I held my vote in protest.
I agree with McCain on a slew of issues. There are other things I disagree with him on. Immigration and campaign financing to name a couple. But on the war, yes. Taxes, Yes. Abortion, Yes. Traditional Marriage, Yes. His choice for VP, Yes.
The issues on Obama however, I cannot think of any issue I agree with. The War, No. Abortion, No. Affirmative Action, No. Reparations, No (He said he does not believe in Reparations, which is true, but only because his extremely leftist mind thinks reparations are TOO LITTLE), Immigration, No. Foreign Policy, No. Health care, No. In fact, give me an issue he stands by and you will hear nothing by, "NO" from me.
But don't think I will let old Johnny off the hook. His pick of Sarah Palin did not please me because she is conservative. It pleased me because it showed his ability to listen to his base. I am not saying to be controlled by his base, but that he has the ability to listen to the people. We conservatives also took stances against the current President, GWB, on issues like port security, immigration (in which he was agreement with John McCain, and Ted Kennedy **shudder**), and Harriet Miers.
If McCain tries to give the Illegals amnesty, we will be there to knock him down (along with the democrats who will try to knock anything he does down because they are petty weak creatures).
I will be voting for Senator McCain, and I have even volunteered my time for his campaign. But don't think I won't call him on anything remotely liberal that he tries.

Wha--? I don't get it
You know, you just can't go to bed anymore knowing how you will react tomorrow. I remember on 8-7-08 wondering how they were going to cover the 08' Olympics. I turned on the news Friday morning and instead of seeing an opening ceremony, I saw Russian tanks rolling into Georgia.
Now today, I can recall thinking about who McCain will pick to be his VP. I personally was pulling for Mitt. I value his economic experience, and thought his expertise in dealing with economies and working with the dems in the liberal state of Massachusetts was invaluable. I even understood the possibility of a woman VP through Kay Bailey Hutchinson. I had no problem with that. I don't have a problem with gender. Heck, I would vote for a black woman if she were conservative.
So it was an immense surprise to me when McCain picked this relative newbie to be his VP. She has some time as a mayor of a small city and was Governor of Alaska for two years, but is that enough experience should McCain fall ill or God forbid, die while in office? Would she be ready to lead the free world?
Inexperience is Obama's main flaw and we were good at exploiting it. Now McCain goes out and chooses someone who, while more experienced that Obama, is certainly not a heavyweight politician. A strong VP choice would have solidified his resume to the American People, now it seems he may have weakened himself. Perhaps he thinks a female voter boost will compensate for that. But only time will tell.
As for me, I do not know enough about her to make any criticisms, so I guess I will have to see how this plays out.

Liberal Insensitivity-Beyond Belief
One thing living in San Francisco has taught me, is that liberals are not as much compassionate as they are apathetic to things they cannot see. This liberal city touts its left wing "achievements" yet has the shameful designation as the country's leader in sex slave populations with as much as 50,000 estimated to reside within San Francisco County.
In addition to this human rights tragedy, San Francisco loves to boast its treatment of the homeless, while thousands of poverty stricken individuals beg for money on the streets or line up for their meager food from a local church. For about 30 years, San Francisco has been uninhibited by any so called "republican interference", yet poverty, slavery and loss freedoms are abundant. What have they been doing these last few decades? Well, I'll tell you. They have been banning the use of plastic bags, Styrofoam and trans fats. The raids on so called, "massage parlors" which often keep the women virtual prisoners, forced into sexual relations with paying patrons, are nothing but symbolic, as it is rare for a raid to even occur, let alone, be enough to close them down.
In San Francisco, you can make millions of dollars a year, drink your lattes and enjoy your wine and cheese parties. You talk badly about George W. Bush, lavish over your vote to make the world a better place since you voted to keep the San Francisco government the way it is. Soon as you come down from your lofty flats onto the streets of San Francisco, you can give a dollar to a homeless man and feel good about yourself as he uses that money for drugs, liquor and unnourishing fast food as he slowly starves to death, day in and day out. But perhaps not as quickly since you had the good mercy to ban trans fats.
It really is odd how this city is truly two sided. I can go on forever about how beautiful the buildings are, or how diverse the cultures are or even how amazing the food is (and it is). But I could also go on longer with my disgust of liberalism in its true form. Unapologetically arrogant, infinitely naive and apathetically cruel to all who are not like them.

Peace Kills: Part 1
Peaceniks are the worst people on earth. They have caused more atrocities and allowed more people to suffer than so called "War Hawks". It is so easy for those living in safe conditions, like the United States or in Europe to chant, "Give peace a chance".
First case
There was no war during the cold war between Russia, China and America, yet during the cold war, over 150,000,000 innocent civilians perished under Soviet rule. Whether in the gulags or out of starvation, or good ol' fashion class cleansing. Take into account that during the Holocaust a total of 6,000,000 Jews were exterminated. The atrocities of innocent life compared to another simply dwarfs the idea that peace equates to life and liberty.
Second case
Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The two cities destroyed by Atomic weapons. Total deaths, estimated at over 350,000. Some in the US are actually sorry about the attacks. So while I certainly do not take joy in the fact that 350,000 innocent men women and children died in those bombings, a rational human being must regard the 10,000,000 innocent Chinese civilians, raped, tortured and murdered by Imperial Japanese forces and it becomes apparent that this empire needed to fall. Also, it is estimated that in order to launch an invasion of mainland Japan, American losses would have totaled between 500,000 and 1,000,000.
Why I admire the atom bomb
The Soviet Union and the United States along with Europe faced the possibility of another world war shortly after the second one ended. What kept the Allies from launching attacks on Moscow or Red Army troops from crossing into Alaska? Mutual fear of an atomic strike. The thing most people do not understand is that the weapons purpose is to never use it. An international insurance policy if you will. With technology advancing as it did during WWII, modern global imperialism was more a reality then than it had ever been before. The nuclear stand off kept a much bloodier world war from taking place potentially saving hundreds of millions of lives.

What words mean. Freedom of Speech Defined
Freedom of speech. It's great isn't it? No matter how much damage I think certain forms of speech cause, it is important to remember our responisibility as Americans to hold this important right near and dear to our hearts.
It's just a movie. It's just a song. It's just a play. Has anyone said something similar to you? Well I sure have. To the passive masses, this would seem true. But what do, "American Idiot", "Hair" and "Lions of Lambs" have in common? The excuse, "It's just entertainment".
Many patriotic Americans have had the wool pulled over their eyes while chanting the leftist mantra, "It's just entertainment". It's not just entertainment, it is the calculated assault of leftist anti-American propaganda coated in the guise of entertainment. Their product has a purpose and a message that is specifically aimed at enforcing the rule of law that has supported all Draconian dictatorships. The law that states, "If you say a lie long enough and loud enough, eventually it will become true". What better way for a lie to be said enough and loud enough than when it is in the top 10 of the music charts?
I am rarely surprised by the propaganda tactics of the fascist left anymore. But I amazed at how well they have been able to convince the nation that it is close minded to disagree with their marxist messages. They have effectively convinced the patriots to lower their guard. I mean who cares if Julia Roberts supports infanticide, right? Who cares if Rage Against the Machine insults Christians? Who cares if Michael Moore's movies are requested in bulk by Hamas to further indoctrinate their youth? You obviously don't. You would allow this nation to crumble just to protect your image as an "Open minded individual". So instead of standing for what you believe, you accept the unacceptable and promote the damaging filth that seeks to destroy our republic.

My Meeting with the San Francisco Young Republicans
What a breath of fresh air. Last night I was able to finally attend a SFYR meeting. I have lived in SF for over a year, and during that time, I have had contact with nothing but Bush bashing, GITMO hating, pro tax, pro infanticide, pinko Commie leftists, and despite my tolerant nature, it was honestly starting to get to me.
Since here in the city, the amount of liberals is tantamount to the number of sands in the Sahara, the SFYR meeting was like an oasis. I had the pleasure of meeting many young, like minded individuals who were more than happy to have me there. In a packed section of Azul's near Union Square, we mixed and mingled while sipping drinks.
This was my first meeting of the sort, and I was half expecting a classroom-like situation. I would have been fine with that too. But the friendly atmosphere in that bar was very nice. A few drinks later we went over voting stances for the local ballots. The special speaker for the night was a member of the Giuliani campaign.
From what I gathered, many of them were not too happy with the mostly moderate contenders in the current GOP race. Many of us, including myself wished for another Ronald Reagan or Barry Goldwater to sweep us off our feet and save this nation from another term of do-nothing politics.
I was a little upset to learn that all these monthly meetings occur on Tuesday nights, and I have night classes to attend. Regardless, I look forward to special events on the weekends and have even volunteered to help register voters this Saturday at the Ferry building near the financial district of San Francisco.
Well, until next time,
Victory,
The San Francisco Conservative.

A new year, a new post. Thoughts of the campaign trail
Yes, it's the new year. It's also going to be a very political year. This is of course very interesting for me, and devistating for other members of my family who will now have to deal with the TV constantly being tuned onto Fox News, MSNBC and CNN (Yes, I watch all three). Both the left and the right will be considering this to be the race that determines the fate of our nation.
However, don't think that if a Republican wins, that everything will be great. There are a lot of RINOs in the race this year, and it is up to us to remind them that we pull the strings. We, the true conservatives.
McCain has always bugged me. Should he get in, his love fest with illegal immigrants and friendly relations to uber-leftists will have to be under close scrutiny.
I, like many other Republicans are still undecided. Quite frankly, I wish there was another choice. (And no, I don't mean Ron Paul) Out of all those running, I tend to like Romney and Thompson the best. But at any rate, I would vote for just about anyone other than Hillary or Obama.
We are not electing a king after all. Just because we get a GOP president doesn't mean that we can all start relaxing. Take Bush for example. If it were not for the powerful outrage against "shamnesty" and the appointing of leftist, Harriiet Myers and the support of giving our eastern ports to Dubai, Bush would have approved all those things.
Should the unthinkable happen and Hillary or Obama get in, it could in some ways be a blessing in disguise. Nothing, short of another terrorist attack on our soil can mobilize the right quite like a Hillary/Communist Healthcare scheme or Obama/Terrorist Love fest.
