Ron Paul - Are You Seriously Thinking About Voting For This Idiot?

It's okay for Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

Oh, and we should carry around silver and gold. That's practical.

This man has NO accomplishments to speak of.

Why I Do NOT Like Ron Paul

Yes, let's just mind our own business and bury our heads in the sand and screw Israel. This is what he wants for our greatest allies and our country? The man is a nut job who thinks we can just cut ourselves off from the world and ignore terrorism.

I may have posted some of these before but, I love Megyn Kelly so, here's some good videos.

New Features - New Year - New Beginnings

I have been doing "Today's Headlines" for quite some time but, instead I have decided to add news scrolls on the side of the blog so that you can get the latest news without me having to constantly update. What a great idea, huh? LOL! This way I will be able to focus on posting stories I find interesting and want to comment on. I really hope you all enjoy the new changes and make The Alternative Conservative your number one source for the latest news headlines.

I want to give everyone a big THANK YOU! I look forward to a New Year and new changes.

With love,
Tuesday Money

Maryland Says NO to American Flag

Winkler and her family erected the flag in a traffic circle three years ago in the town of Woodbine. They posted the flag to honor their nephew, a soldier deployed to Afghanistan. 

About a month ago a car crashed into the roundabout damaging a tree and destroying the original flag. So Winkler’s husband and an 88-year-old World War Two veteran replaced the flag. And that’s when the trouble started. 

Winkler said she received a telephone call alerting her that state highway workers had taken down the flag and the flag pole, tossing both into the back of a dump truck. 

“They told us it was against the law to erect a flag on the traffic circle,” Winkler said. “They told my husband that whoever put up the flag could be arrested for trespassing.”

Leave it to Maryland, the only state in the union that voted for Carter the second time around, to hate the American Flag.
