At the end of this eventful year, I’d like to thank you for visiting this blog the last couple of months. It has been a delight to have researched and written these conservative-leaning posts. But, the endeavors have usurped a large amount of my time from other duties and responsibilities.
Moreover, unpublished research is leading me to anticipate a series of events for the upcoming year which consume me with dread at the thought of ongoing research. Below, you’ll find my predictions for 2009. You may want to save this article as a time-stamped MHT or PDF for comparison one year from now. You could also save it as a browser bookmark.
by LukeAmerica2020 Most of us just don’t have the time to give even a cursory perusal to the abundance of conservative commentary and news, so we’re helping with the quest. Each Sunday we highlight issues and headlines from the week, commented by established political pundits.
President George W. Bush unexpectedly flew to Iraq Sunday (2008-12-14), his fourth visit, to pay a farewell visit and discuss a recently signed security agreement. Hours later, during a news conference in Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki’s office in Baghdad, a reporter of Baghdadiya television threw two shoes, one by one, at Bush (video below).
The man who threw the shoes shouted an Arabic phrase, which reportedly translated as, “This is a farewell kiss, dog.” In the Arab world, one of the strongest insults is sticking the sole of your dirty shoe in somebody’s face.
by LukeAmerica2020 According to two private, nonpartisan organizations, some of the major corporations that received enormous sums in bailout funds and loans had just donated large amounts of money to the Democratic and Republican conventions weeks before coming to Washington to beg for their taxpayer-funded handouts.
These include American International Group (AIG), Citigroup, Ford Motor Company, Freddie Mac, General Motors Corporation, and Goldman Sachs. In all, big businesses, labor unions, and individual millionaires donated $118 million into the nominating conventions for Barack Obama and John McCain. The Democratic convention in Denver received $61 million and the Republican one in Minneapolis-St. Paul got $57 million.
by LukeAmerica2020 A Brief Overview of YouTube …
The domain name “YouTube.com” was activated on February 15, 2005; the company was founded by Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim. The angel-funded enterprise offered their first public preview of the site in May 2005. They made their official debut that November. Bandwidth costs and potential advertising profits inspired a venture capitalist, Sequoia Capital, to get involved.
Within six months, YouTube was one of the fastest growing sites on the Web and was ranked the 5th most popular website on Alexa. More than 100 million video clips were viewed daily on YouTube, with an additional 65,000 new videos uploaded every 24 hours.
In their latest comedic skit, Jackie Broyles and Dunlap discuss the fact that Barack Obama still smokes cigarettes. Presented for you from a bunker underneath Jackie’s Market in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, you can view their website here.
Some same-sex marriage supporters are urging people to “call in gay” today (2008-12-10) to show how much the country relies on gays and lesbians. Organizers of “Day Without a Gay” are also encouraging people to perform volunteer work and refrain from spending money. Designed to show the size and impact of the gay and lesbian community, the grass-roots effort comes just weeks after California’s Proposition 8 initiative.
The ballot proposition defended the definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman and consequently eliminated the possibility of same-sex couples marrying in the state. The voters in favor of ending same-sex marriage won with 52.3%.
But many in California’s homosexual community did not accept the loss. The more militant losers marched in the streets, accosted by-standers, criticized christians and blacks (who predominantly voted in favor of the proposition), ransacked churches, and launched intensive media campaigns claiming those who opposed them were involved in a conspiracy of hate-speech. Now, they’ve developed a more creative means to sway public opinion and the next election.
We reported 30 days ago that gun sales were soaring across the nation. Firearms and ammunition sales continue to boom. A simple Google News search for “gun sales are up” or “gun sales soaring” reveals numerous recent stories concerning this race beat the inauguration. While many retailers are struggling to break even this holiday season, business has been booming for gun dealers and warehouse distributors nationwide (up 42%).
This pre-emptive initiative to “bear arms while we can” is concerned that with President-elect Barack Obama in the White House and a Democrat-majority Congress tough, new gun laws are just around the corner. It may mean fewer opportunities to buy guns. Although an outright firearms ban seems unlikely, gun owners are worried about higher taxes on gun transactions and greater fees for Firearm Ownership Identification Card applications.
Gun-rights advocates should also recognize that if the Dems do curtail, stifle, or eliminate guns sales, there is another point to consider. They will also stop usage of existing guns by cutting off ammo sales. If you are concerned, stock up on ammo NOW.

On Al-Nas TV (Egypt) on November 27, Cleric Hassan Abu Al-Ashbal demanded that Barack Hussein Obama convert to Islam (video below). He declared that Obama is “like the Byzantine leaders in the days of Prophet Muhammad.” He continued, “If you want glory; you will find it in Islam. If you want honor; you will find it in Islam … especially since you have some kind of roots in Islam.”
He concluded with this blatant threat to the President-elect,
“If you refuse to return to your Islamic origins, to the way Allah created you, to withdraw your huge armies and military bases from the lands of the Muslims … it constitutes an evil omen for you.
Know, Obama, that America, with all its size and might, will know no peace, as long as a single Muslim child lacks food, drink, medicine, or housing. If you refuse, Obama, and insist on remaining in Muslim lands, know that Allah still plants in Muslims obedience to Him and they are willing to wait for Paradise which is closer than their own shoelaces.
Know, Obama, that in the lands of Islam, there are people who seek death, and are eager for it, even more than you and your people are eager for life.”

by LukeAmerica2020 Of the more than one dozen court cases challenging Barack Obama’s citizenship and eligibility to become President, three cases are at the forefront of the grassroots movement by concerned Americans. This is not a partisan or a racial issue; it is about the constitutional qualifications to be eligible for the Presidency. Moreover, three aspects of this ongoing ordeal are most astonishing.
First is that most of the lower court cases have been dismissed due to the plaintiff’s lack of standing, ie, ordinary citizens have no right to question a Presidential candidate’s eligibility. Second is that Obama and the DNC have spent almost one million dollars in legal fees to prevent the candidate from having to reveal his original birth certificate. Third is the fact that Obama likewise refuses to release numerous relevant documents and records that should be innocuous (Occidental College records, Columbia College records, Columbia Thesis paper, Harvard College records, Law Practice client list, Law Practice billing records, etc.)
This video segment is from Fox & Friends on Sunday (2008-12-07). It includes an Oprah Winfrey interview clip from Extra.
“I said I would be happy to talk to Sarah Palin when the election was over. I went and tried to talk to Sarah Palin and instead she talked to Greta [Van Susteren]. She talked to Matt [Lauer]. She talked to Larry [King]. But she didn’t talk to me. But maybe she’ll talk to me now that she has a [multi-million dollar] book deal.”
by LukeAmerica2020 Five Blackwater Worldwide guards have been told to surrender to the FBI today (2008-12-08) to face federal manslaughter and assault charges connected to the shooting deaths of 17 civilians at a traffic circle in Iraq last year. A sixth is reportedly negotiating a plea deal.
The shootings took place near Nisour Square in Baghdad on September 16, 2007.
This brief slideshow presents some of the recent headlines featured in the U.K.’s Daily Mail Newspaper. It seems that the U.K. is on its way to becoming a Big Brother State … perhaps, along with the rest of the planet.

by LukeAmerica2020 We’ve started a new column this week to be published each Sunday. Most of us just don’t have the time to give even a cursory perusal to the abundance of conservative commentary and news, so we’re helping with the quest. These articles, by established political pundits, highlight issues and headlines from the week.
Suzanna Gratia-Hupp was raised in central Texas, the middle of three children. Her father, Al, owned a heavy equipment store. Her mother, Ursula, was a homemaker. After getting a degree as a chiropractor in 1985, she moved to Houston. An assistant district attorney, who was a patient, suggested she carry a gun as self-defense in the big city.
On Saturday, October 16, 1991, Suzanna and her parents were having lunch at the Luby’s Cafeteria in Killeen, TX. She had left her handgun in her car to comply with Texas state law at the time which forbade carrying a concealed weapon.
While enjoying their family meal, George Hennard, an unemployed merchant seaman, drove his truck into the cafeteria, leaped out and opened fire on the patrons. Hupp instinctively reached into her purse for her weapon, but it was in her vehicle.
Explaining why he is a conservation republican, MachoSauceProductions points out the perils of becoming dependent on the government. “Their job is not to provide for us; it is to protect us so that we can get the provisions we need ourselves. We the people made this the greatest country on earth … not the government.”
How young is too young to get your kid started on “sexual reassignment therapy”? Seven years old? People are doing it. Dr. Norman Spack, a pediatric specialist at the Boston Childrens Hospital, encourages the bizarre practice.
Although it’s not legal yet to take your toddler in and have their genitals sliced off, you can have them put on hormones that will stunt the natural development of their bodies.
by LukeAmerica2020 Today (2008-12-05), the Supreme Court justices will consider a lawsuit that alleges Senator Barack Obama was not qualified to be on the New Jersey ballot. The lawsuit was filed by attorney Leo Donofrio who is questioning Obama’s citizenship.
The high court hearing comes just 10 days before the Electoral College meets to certify the election results. And, finally, the MSM has offered some limited coverage of this monumental Supreme Court hearing (see the links below).
Also, according to WorldNetDaily, more than 60,000 letters were sent to U.S. Supreme Court. These letters, one for each of the nine justices, delivered urgent requests to review Obama’s citizenship. (read this entire post…)
Currently, there are 16 cases in 12 states (with 2 before the Supreme Court) contending that Barack Obama is constitutionally ineligible to be sworn in as President of the United States. This 60 second video outlines the challenges to his presidency and sheds light on his international upbringing.
