Dropping the conventional wisdom

One of the reasons I started this blog is the hope that somewhere someone might read and "get" how it is that liberalism does not, cannot, will not and has never worked in any society it's ever been tried in.

For the past several weeks, it's become more and more clear that we have a huge population that will never "get it". Which has really zapped my resolve with the blog.

What do I mean by "getting it"? Part of it starts with a media who's willing to drop the canard that the republican party is tool of the rich. Seriously, where's the evidence of this when you have Jon Corzine "losing" a billion or two in his company and Nancy Pelosi, who can somehow find enough dimes in her couch cushions to fund this...........

News that President Barack Obama arrived in Hawaii this weekend to join his wife Michelle and daughters Malia and Sasha in time for a Christmas holiday has been covered by news media worldwide.

The first family and their friends have been enjoying a reclusive 17-day holiday vacation in beach front homes in Kailua, Oahu.

But another powerful politician is here for the holidays as well, albeit on another island and with less media attention.

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, D-CA, who served as Speaker of the House and is now head of the House minority, is once again spending her Christmas at the exotic Four Seasons Resort Hualalai at Historic Ka'upulehu in Kona on the island of Hawaii.

Pelosi reportedly plans to spend her Christmas Eve at midnight mass in St. Michael's Catholic Church in Kailua-Kona.

Pelosi spent the last two Christmas holidays in Kona at the same hotel in an elaborate suite that rents for $10,000 a night.

Seriously?

Why isn't the media all over the hypocrisy of this?
