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.

I'm Pro Choice - Paper or Plastic?
Ok, so I'm at the grocery store in downtown San Francisco during my lunch break. I go to get a few lunch making supplies, bread, peanut butter and chex. Simple enough. So when I get to the check out stand, my total is given and I pay for my items. But now an interesting thing develops. I get a paper bag to put my groceries in.
A paper bag can be good for many things, but when it comes to carrying groceries, especially heavy groceries. Nothing beats a steady and easily grabbed plastic bag. Let's face it. Paper bags do not have handles and they are not strong. They are a pain to clench on, and if you have to carry multiple bags, you have to cautiously look over the bags as they are grasped to your chest in what seems like a vain attempt to stay secure.
The reason why I got a paper bag, is because I was not given a CHOICE to use a plastic one. The manager apparently caught the "green" fad and has decided that WE should all suffer!
You know, it figures. Where else but in Liberalsville can you have the choice to kill an innocent unborn infant, but can't choose how you carry your groceries?
But hey, anything to make the ivory tower liberals feel good about themselves right? I'm sure they are thinking to themselves, "I don't see what the fuss is about. Why don't they just have their chauffeurs grab the groceries?". It's bad enough that they think they know what is best for us, but for them to find newer ways to impose their beliefs on us is just horrible!
Listen up America. GREEN SUCKS! The ivory tower free market haters want nothing less than total free market annihilation. They want you to turn off your lights and live like cavemen.
Now the thing is, I care about the environment. I pick up my trash, and from time to time, I even go out of my way to recycle. But this Eco-Nazi Fascism is just too much. It's not like this is the first time they have done something like this. There are no Styrofoam cups or containers allowed to be used at restaurants and other businesses.
I have been in green buildings as well. They are horrible death traps of muggy temperatures and inefficient power. You would be lucky to witness your granddaughter's college graduation by the time the elevator reaches the second floor.
So anyway, down with green.

When Oh When Can We Destroy Iran?
I am starting to get a little annoyed with Iran. They openly support terrorism (Oh, and don't give me that whole, "Iran expressed sorrow for those lost in the twin towers" Bullshit. If Hitler were a little smarter, he would have said the same thing about Pearl Harbor.), supply the insurgency and call for Israel and America to be destroyed on a regular basis. One could simply call it "saber rattling", but there is a huge difference between saying a bunch of angry words to avert attention from your failure as a leader, and actually being dangerous.
Iran is like the crazy man who lives on the street, screaming about the apocalypse, harmless. But give him a gun, or a weapon capable of harming others, and you have a threat you just can't ignore.
And that is what Iran is. A symbolic crazy man who wants to hurt people, but does not yet have the capabilities to do so. The question is, how long will we allow them to continue on this path before they either attain such a weapon, or we simply get sick of it. Well, unfortunately, the idea that we will rise to this task before lives are lost is minimal. Such attacks against them would cause the ire of the leftists to come pouring out in droves. But the thing is, once the unthinkable does happen, the left will undoubtedly demand to know why nothing was done sooner.
That's crazy right? Wrong! They did it before. After 9/11, we knew where to attack. The answer was Afghanistan. We waited for months before strikes were made. The left was in a rage over the idea of attacking Afghanistan. Michael Moore being one of the most vocal opponents, of such an attack. He would then later make a movie called, "Fahrenheit 9/11" which he argued that Bush let Osama Bin Laden escape by not attacking Afghanistan SOONER!
Do we need to fight a conventional war against them? Probably not. It could be argued that the Iranians are stupid for electing that nutjob of a president, but there is eventually a limit to how stupid someone is willing to be. Take their military out of the picture, destroy their ability to organize the resources necessary to operate their illegal nuclear facilities.
Give them the option to surrender the location of the facilities, then if they do not cooperate, send in black ops to destroy the facilities. And if that fails, destroy a few square blocks surrounding where the management lives who operates those facilities and eventually, others will surrender what they know.
This sure sounds severe. What I am suggesting may upset some and disgust others. Well, in case you haven't noticed, WE ARE AT WAR CHILDREN!!! The time for civility with an uncivilized enemy is long past due. We must consider them a potential threat and remove that threat from this earth. We will remove it by intimidation or force. There is no other way.
