Here we post impromptu Blogs on current issues that reflect our
conservative perspective in the freewheeling spirit and style of the Blogosphere.

Some Blog items are developed more extensively in Essays and
The Right Parallels
.
In time we will provide space for reactions and comments from readers.
As the website evolves we may comment here on some issues outside
the world of politics.
  

 

  The Staff at LightBookproductions would like to congratulate our site producer, Palmer Hasty, who had been playing golf on full-length courses only one year, for shooting a par 36 (May 1, 2008) on the back 9 at Lansbrook Golf Club in Palm Harbor, Florida.  And Mr. Hasty informed us that score included 2 penalty strokes.
The Staff at LightBookproductions would also like to update this note with congratulations to site producer Palmer Hasty for shooting a Hole-In-One on Hole #6, a 105 Par 3 at Largo Country Club during a 4-player team best ball tournament this past Saturday (June 20, 2009) when the pin was located back left approximately 120 yards from the tee. 
Club: Orlimar Tri-Metal PW.  Ball: Callaway HX Hot

  The Staff at LightBookproductions would like to congratulate Alaska Governor Sarah Palin for being selected the Human Events Conservative of the Year 2008.  The sooner Republicans understand why the Alaska governor energized the people and the campaign, simultaneously forcing liberals to pathetically reveal the true, cynical duplicity that informs their modus operandi, the better.

LightBookproductions would like to congratulate Heritage Foundation President Edwin J. Feulner for receiving the Charles H. Hoeflich Lifetime Achievement Award from the national education organization "Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI).  Mr. Feulner is only one of six people to receive this award since 1953. 
(The Heritage Foundation is an invaluable resource for this website).

LightBookproductions would also like to extend our thoughts and prayers to the Amy and Phil Mickelson family.  Amy Mickelson has been diagnosed with breast cancer.  This website promotes cancer research and is not only an admirer (a fan) of Phil Mickelson as a future Hall of Fame golfer, we also admire the extremely generous contributions the Mickelson's and other professional golfers make to education and the families of members of the United States Armed Forces.
The Raptor... January-February-March Blogs 2009
This blog post is a partial posting until we complete some of the new page formats for  publication.  We will be posting more blog material and more often than of late as soon as some of the production issues are resolved. 
Thank you for your patience and your visits to the site.

 

 

As other conservatives and conservative sites have done, we believe we can sincerely appreciate the historical significance of Barack Obama being the first black man to be elected President, yet we also believe that the historical significance does not preclude our continued stand, and speaking out against the ultra liberal policies Obama promised during the campaign to implement if elected.

We prepared a blog post scheduled for the morning of the election late last year but decided to hold off and file it.  We still believe the blog post was accurate in saying that the media protected Obama from, that is, ignored what were relevant questions throughout the campaign.  

For example, we think that Obama's idea for a stimulus package and his additional taxation of energy use is not a sound solution and avoids one of the greatest challenges of our times in its lack of vision, and should remind and worry the people that, underneath the excellent communication skills, a left-wing community organizer now runs the country. 

As Pat Buchanan pointed out, the stimulus package is one third stimulus and two thirds spending on the expansion of liberal programs and government bureaucracies.  

A massive infusion of money into roadway and bridge infrastructure across the country, shovel-ready projects as they are called,  along with money for research and development of alternative energy sources are mere practical steps under the circumstances. 

But when compared to a real vision for the kind of energy development America has been capable of while being handcuffed by regulations and environmental paranoia for decades now, a vision America needs to get started right away in order to reach energy independence and security, the Cap & Trade foundation of the Obama administration's so-called energy vision is severely disappointing.

Elsewhere on the site we have posted numerous references to Cap & Trade because we believe that when Cap & Trade is compared to the kind of energy vision America really needs, Cap & Trade represents a paramount failure.

Cap & Trade is a congressional bartering game with consumer's taxes, presented as a necessary punishment for the very energy companies who are creating the backbone of our energy while simultaneously and constantly improving the technology that controls CO2 emissions.  The liberals behind Cap & Trade also miss their target on that retrogressive mission of punishment as well because it will be the already suffering American taxpayer who will be punished the most via increased electric bills. 

If you are a normal American out there paying monthly energy bills and you think, as the liberal Democrats will tell you, that Cap & Trade is going to provide the pathway to energy clean enough and abundant enough to satisfy the radical environmentalists (who control the Democrats) and therefore suggest that your increase in energy costs per month is only temporary, we suggest you think again.

Since we started this January blog post during our work on redesigning the site, it appears now we were right. 

And Obama seems hell-bent on repealing the 1993 "Don't Ask, Don't tell" policy while nearly 60% of the military are against the policy.  Now  you know why the military was suspicious of former President Clinton, who, for some unimaginable reason, tried to implement an open gay policy for the Armed Services.  As we already knew, it's not just us homophobes and intolerant bigots, as they like to call us, who know that it would be a disaster for the military, it is also the military itself.  And why mess with the military anyway, nothing is perfect but the military is the one government entity that seems to be doing its job really well right now.  And it is certainly the government entity that is most capable of doing its job, especially if it were allowed to use all its power.

Notice: As Obama and the liberal Democrats in the 111th Congress prepare to take over in Washington and reintroduce legislation to repeal the 1993 law stating that homosexuals are not eligible to be in the military (Section 654, Title 10)...in early January 09 the Center for Military Readiness reported the following results from the annual active duty military personnel survey by the Military Times58% of active duty military personnel are against repealing the law.  Also, 10% of active duty personnel said they would leave the military if the law is repealed, and 14% said they would consider ending their military careers.  LightBookproductions encourages visitors to this website to click on the link below, sign the petition, and if you can afford it, contribute to the Center for Military Readiness, an organization that is fighting the legal battles to maintain the law.

Ann Coulter might be on to something regarding ultra liberal Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.  Pelosi's outrageously strange attempt at trying to politically position herself regarding a stand on water boarding and the CIA is a real sideshow.

Liberals in Congress and the mainstream media appear to have in their minds that the war on terror officially ended when Obama was elected President, and that the best way to end the war on terror is to apologize to radical Islam and the rest of the world for our stand against terrorism.

The Raptor... January 2009 Blogs

We agree with Governor Sarah Palin regarding her comment about the Obama administration trying to push through socialistic policies way too fast, and of course, that in turn requires a dangerous increase in the size of the government. 

We believe more Americans than just conservatives, who warned the people about this, will agree with the Governor from Alaska before the year is out.

We also agree with the Governor regarding her stand against late night talk show host David Letterman's comments about her daughters.

Mr. Letterman also apparently thought he could get away with the comment because of Governor Palin's politically negative "target" status among liberals in general, especially the liberal media.  A target status that reached psychopathic proportions during the last Presidential election. 

When you get a great looking, crowd pleasing articulate conservative woman with power who is not afraid to speak out against homosexuality, then the media and entertainment industry go into psycho mode.

LightBookproductions would like to thank, and state that we are  proud to use  these reliable and super informative site links as foundational resources.  In the future, naturally, this list will expand. 
We would also like to mention the  The Economist magazine, which is a publication not necessarily considered conservative, and based in the UK, because it is a publication I have read off and on for over a decade and whether I agree with a specific opinion or not, and much of the time I do not, I still find the magazine basically informative on international issues and very well written. 
And it was the Economist that highlighted, in spite of an endorsement, the issue of  Obama's questionable ability, or his will, to stand up to the extreme liberals in Congress.   As liberal legislation piles up, that will be an important issue.   As we have already seen in the so-called stimulus legislation and the transfer of oversight of the Census Bureau to The White House; each an indication that the liberals in Congress could easily control the Executive Branch in the same manner in which they have tried to control the Judicial Branch via the Supreme Court nomination process.  And with renegade judges in the lower courts trying to overturn the democratic process as now in California with Prop 8.   You can read something about developments with Prop 8 in California and Amendment 2 in Florida at the
Florida page on this site.
