A propos :

I grew up on the South Side of Chicago. In 1981 at the age of nineteen I moved to New York City to play punk rock and major in music at New York University. Punk rock won. I'm a registered Republican who supported myself for twenty-years, two weeks driving a New York City Yellow Cab.

I estimate that as a result of my cab driving I have talked to over two hundred thousand total strangers sitting behind me in the dark - which is very good practice.

My dad grew up in the same neighborhood that Michelle Obama did and my
mother and I grew up in the neighborhood that the Obamas now live in. My perspective on this election is about as unique as you'll ever find in a nation of 300 million people. Real Republicans are liberal and real Democrats are fascists but its obviously hard for people who live in other countries to follow these subtleties. And this might surprise you but many of the most American people I have ever gotten to know well are from Africa. I call Senegal the 51st State.

Mark Steyn is my hero.

Mes discussions

Finally, other erudite New York-philes who also love McCain

It's rather late at night to go into detail, but I just want to say "thank you" for being real and honest about your affiliation with McCain and the Republican Party. I am in the minority, too, and wonder what would happen to me if I walked around Manhattan (a place I visit often to see my sister) with a McCain/Palin or Bush shirt.

First of all - minority? That has yet to be proven. Don't fall into the trap of thinking New York State vote fraud equals real people.
I still wonder how Republican Rick Lazio really did in his uphill Senate race against (now) Senator Hillary Clinton - now that's being in the minority.
Republicans certainly run the risk of attempted brow beating when openly expressing their political views but I would direct you to the 'Book of Exorcism.' "If all else fails, laugh at the Devil for he hates to be scorned." I've actually had leftists put their fingers in their ears, close their eyes and go "no, no, no, no, no" until I stopped correcting them.
Rule number one: Start with Abraham Lincoln and go from there. Most of them don't even know he was a Republican.
Then Ulysses S. Grant fighting the Ku Klux Klan (all Democrats), follow through with the National Park Service of Grant and Teddy Roosevelt and finish with Richard Nixon's Environmental Protection Agency.
When Democrats inevitably ask why the Republicans switched sides say, "We didn't - you just started lying about it."
Stay in touch and let me know when you're coming into Manhattan - I'm in the process of making a line of T-Shirts.

facism

you're right for the subtilitie of the situation in your country about the two camps for the New Order like they say.
But it's the same for all the world and in any country we can simplify but it will be too simple, no?
I travel and always seen this two camps:Racist and others.
I live in France and it's the same here:No real choice to make...
And can you really make the real difference between all this people, i can't.
Just thinking like when i had twenty: Destroy...No Future.
But i have today 44 years old and Know that nothing is eternal,and two children, i just hope a just world for them.
We have no real choice, just the less of the worst or something like that.
I mand your pardon for my english, that's long time for me to remember...

Salutations, et bon vote...

Two Wrongs Don't Make A Reverend Wright

A lot's been going on in America since President Lyndon Baines Johnson became the first Southern Democrat to actually act as if the Confederates had lost America’s Civil War. His Civil Rights Acts destroyed the Democrat Party’s traditional White Supremacist voting base and it didn’t take long for the weakened Democrat party to start calling everybody else racists in what psychologists call ‘psychological projection.’

But that’s the Democrats problem.

Colin Powell was leading George W. Bush in Republican polls back in 2000 but Powell decided not to run. There was a draft Condoleezza Rice movement among Republicans prior to the Republican primaries of 2008 but she decided not to run.

In short – if two people had decided to run for the presidency America could be in the middle of 16 years straight of African American presidencies - Republican African American presidencies.

If the wicked flee where no man pursueth then why do the non-wicked among us have to do anything? There is absolutely no reason on earth for American Republican’s to vote for a man like Barack Obama’s who leftist ideology is anathema to us – just to right a wrong that we did not perpetrate or condone.

If the world wants a leftist ideologue elected President of the United States of America in order to atone for the sins of its own racism then I say, “put your own house in order and leave ours out of it!”

America’s electoral formula is simple and applies to any candidate. If you agree with Barack Obama vote for him. If you don’t – then don’t.

We call that freedom.

Mr. Dale is obviously a retarded as all non millionnaire who are republican. I am so sorry that we can't convince those brainless people that they are wrong. republican are rich, griddy, facist and democrats are thinking about us, normal, avergae aerican. Economy is always goo when demcrats are in poer so why americans are still voting???

Hey;

I drove a cab in New York City for twenty years and nothing anybody writes about me is ever going to upset me. Personal attacks? The more personal the better.

I realize web sites have standards and I respect that but I find the irrational anger that just disagreeing with Leftists can produce to be hilarious.

So if you want to curtail comments in reaction to what I write for the benefit of your web site – feel free. But if you are inclined to do it to protect my virgin ears – don’t bother.

Thank You

On being 'Griddy!'

Thank you so much for making my point for me. Republicans are intelligent, educated and well informed and the Democrat Party represents everybody else as you have so masterfully exhibited.

Please write again. My vocabulary is already huge but there’s always room for new words like ‘griddy.’
