Forget something mainstream corporate media?

I am reading about the victories of John McCain and Mitt Romney in South Carolina and Nevada in today;s Washington Post. I and others are noticing more and more the lack of any mention of Ron Paul a candidate who pretty consistently garners around 10% of the vote despite the blind eye of the corporate mainstream media to cover him. They do this at their own peril. I am thinking more and more if the Republicans make McCain the nominees and the Dems choose either Clinton or Obama it would be easy for me to pull the lever for an independent like Ron Paul. I'm sure their are others out there too.

2007 A BCP year in review

JANUARY

Also in January the Scooter Libby trial was underway.

There were some rumblings about the firing of a few U.S. Attorney's.

The Drug and Pharmaceutical companies were all of a sudden hiring Democratic lobbyists. I wonder why that is?

Toys R US gave America a wake up call with a contest to give $25,000 to the first baby born after the first midnight. Unfortunately, the baby was born to a mother who was in the U.S. illegally. So they gave it to the runner up baby who was born to legal U.S. mother. In the end Toys R US gave out three $25,000 awards. The third baby being born to a couple from El Salvador where they here illegally? Don't ask because the liberal mainstream media does not either.

Also in January the BIG news was that I opened up the Beer Can Politics Store. So far I am my best customer. Good thing I don't live from the proceeds.

FEBRUARY
The first murmers of an attempt to give amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants begin in the Senate.

Republican South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham gets an award from La Raza and in a few months would help lead an unsuccessful attempt to give amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants.

Congressman Charlie Norwood dies. Led battles for the patients Bill of Rights and fought against illegal immigration:
"After years of listening to 'advocates' whine about compassion for those who intentionally break our laws for financial gain, I'm glad to see us finally showing some compassion for our own poor and sick who abide by the law,"

Also in February Molly Ivans passed away leaving taking though she she still left a few laughs behind:"During a recent panel on the numerous failures of American journalism, I proposed that almost all stories about government should begin: "Look out! They're about to smack you around again!"

Speaking of the failures of American Journalism cable news showed it's how use less it can be by going 24/7 on the coverage of Anna Nicole Smiths death.

I first mention Ron Paul as a candidate for President.

MARCH

Fred Thompson first pops up on my radar.

Speaking of popping I pop Mike Bloomberg's trial balloon. But, never underestimate the power of a billionaire to do what he wants.

New Haven Connecticut becomes a sanctuary city. Hola suckers!

The gang of four start to work behind closed doors on the illegal immigrant amnesty bill.

APRIL

I attend the HOLD THERE FEET TO THE FIRE event in Washington D.C.

The racial lynch mob goes after DON IMUS including in the mob with their manufactured outrage are some media hypocrites like Keith Obermann and Al Roker. Meanwhile after firing IMUS NBC NEWS make the Virginia Tech campus shooter a star and gets shot down in the process.

The man without a country Kurt Vonnegaut dies.

The White House quote of the year is made: "We screwed up, we are trying to fix it."

MAY
May was the month of illegal immigration mostly because it was the month where forces both inside and outside of Washington tried to ram through the illegal immigrant amnesty bill but, the American people fought back. Twenty Five reasons why the Senate illegal immigration amnesty bill should be defeated. Did somebody say assimilation? Senator Grassley gets it!
La RAZA Award Winner Lindsey Graham does not. Meanwhile the illegal immigration insanity keeps going on on Capitol Hill. Hispanic Journalists try their hand at an Orwellian spin. And a few politicians try to spin the issue too.

JUNE

Some good news on illegal immigration. A bomb plot at JFK foiled. WHERE'S THE ???? The American people win one for democracy. Democrat Byron Dorgan asks the right question from the Senate floor. While Ted Kennedy is always good for a few laughs on illegal immigration. Who is burning down our house? Fugitives hiding in plain sight.

JULY

Libby pardoned! Ramos & Compean are not. Al Gore's son arrested. Bush administration creating problems where there were none on immigration. Taxes My 1986 car died. Senator Arlen Spector tries to beat a dead horse

AUGUST

Dick Cheney develops amnesia. Credit markets start shaking. Iraq money poof! Karl Rove has left the building. Domestic spying from above approved. Elvira Arellano is hiding in plain sight. Finally Arellano brought to justice! Three college students killed by illegal immigrants in New Jersey. Leona Helmsley dies. Alberto Gonzales going, going gone

SEPTEMBER

The political bathroom scandals. I still like Fred. More sub prime shaking. We ride the magic bus with the illegals. The Kennedy's try to control the wind. Blackwater is in hot water. Eliott Spitzer's great idea! Driver's licenses for illegals. Spitzer's other great idea taxpayers pay for medical care for illegals.

OCTOBER

Al Gore wins Nobel prize for what? Al Gore talks the talk. BCP walks the walk on Blog Action Day. Verizon spies on customers. Hillary drinks Spitzer's Kool Aid. Solar Decathlon, Bush again a no show. DREAM ACT defeated without me. Damn! New York Times still being dishonest. Is California burning? Again? Spitzer still stuck on stupid.

NOVEMBER

Writers strike begins. Hello You Tube. Record oil prices thanks day traders! Subprime meets Citibank. An election day warning. Norman Mailer dies. Bank of America profits down. I wonder why? Hillary's Jeff Gannon moment. Coming soon to a school district near you. Spitzer unclogs his ears and drops illegal drivers license plan. No surprise here. The big disconnect on illegal immigration explained. McCain plays the sympathy card at You Tube debate.

Right said Fred!


As a life long registered Democrat I've been trying to find a candidate to support for President. So far I've yet to see anyone on the Democratic side who is not pandering to the pro-illegal immigrant groups/lobbyists while they continue to ignore middle class peoples concerns regarding the illegal immigration problem and costs in their communities.
The Republicans on the other hand have several candidates from Ron Paul (a Republican who also voted against the war) to Tom Tancredo who has been a leader against amnesty proposals that reward illegals who have violated our immigration laws.
Now the Washington Post reports that Republican Fred Thompson may enter the fray. I think the Democrats and Republicans like McCain should be very afraid. Thompson seems to be the most centered of the candidates of all the people running Republican or Democrat. An example of Thompson's no nonsense stand on illegal immigration:
"I think its time for a little plain talk to the leaders of Mexico. Something like: hey guys, you’re our friends and neighbors and we love you but it’s time you had a little dose of reality.
A sovereign nation loses that status if it cannot secure its own borders and we are going to do whatever is necessary to do so, although our policies won’t be as harsh as yours are along your southern border. And criticizing the U.S. for alternately doing too much and too little to stop your illegal activities is not going to set too well with Americans of good will who are trying to figure a way out of the mess that your and our open borders policy has already created. "


Right said Fred!

Have I got a Presidential candidate for you!

If you don't trust John McCain and Rudolf Giuliani to protect our borders and curb illegal immigration. If you are sick of the free rides offered by the mainstream media on the Obama bandwagon. If you are tired of waiting around for Hillary to admit she made a mistake about the Iraq War vote. If you know in your heart that their are much smarter people in Texas than President Bush. Then have a got a candidate for you!:
Who is Ron Paul you say? Get a little taste by reading this.
