Although Barack Obama has pinched, or attempted to pinch, the legacy of JFK for his own presidential aspirations, the fact is that Mitt Romney is far more reminiscent of America’s 35th president.
Kennedy, it will be remembered, was forced to fight religious bigotry and prejudice in 1960 because of his Catholic faith.
Thankfully, American voters rose to [...]

Satire By John W. Lillpop
Quick! Name the greatest contribution made by the great state of Vermont to the overall interests of America and its people?
Answer: Other than maple syrup and a sappy chairman of the DNC (Howard Dean), there is an embarrassing paucity of greatness originating in Vermont.
Until now, that is.
But should the good folks [...]

Liberal media spin masters, in cahoots with the Democrat Party, have always portrayed Bill Clinton as the smartest man in Washington, perhaps the entire planet.
According to these pillars of wisdom, Clinton may in fact be the most intelligent being to have ever lived, including Jesus Christ, and excepting only Franklin Roosevelt, Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, [...]

Recognizing when one’s mind has become infested with liberalism, and knowing the full extent of that devastating news, is vital information that one should have in order to navigate life’s many dangerous obstacles and roadblocks.
The simple, yet scientific, test that follows has been programmed to evaluate one’s “liberal quotient,” which is the exact opposite of [...]

President John F. Kennedy changed the world with his inaugural address on January 20, 1961, including these poetic words, “Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans…”
Forty-seven years later, prominent descendants of JFK are attempting to [...]

In this the winter of political muckraking and dirty tricks, when candidates play foot loose and fancy free with the truth, one fact remains irrefutable:
John McCain is one of the most courageous Americans to have ever donned the uniform of the United States military. Put simply, the man is a national hero who deserves the [...]

If you want the government, federal, state and local, to tell you what you can and cannot eat, please raise your hand. Apparently no one does except for the various politicians who think they were elected to determine what you should eat and drink.
Let’s get something straight, however. I’m fat. You’re fat. And your kids, [...]

(Satire)
The liberal brain does not collect and process information in a logical,orderly, reasonable, and objective manner. Rather, liberal thinking is dominated by an obsession with power, and use of that power to preserve and or advance elitist advantages.
This distorted perspective makes it very difficult to understand exactly how liberals think without earning an advanced degree [...]

News of a January 31 “teach-in” on more than 1,000 college campuses nationwide strikes me of just one more example of the growing desperation of the environmental movement that has bet its credibility and influence on global warming.
Mark your calendar for any news about a March 2-4 conference in New York that is expected to [...]

I broke this story last February (with help from a Chicago area journalist whom I did credit because I’m extraordinarily noble), and as I said two weeks ago in this space, it had its fifteen minutes and fizzled, which was somewhat expected given the mindset of the establishment media.
The story of presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s [...]

At this time of year, the president normally issues his State of the Union address to the nation and the Congress. After the president has spoken, the Democrats usually respond, in both English and Spanish.
All of the speeches are usually loaded with outrageous hyperbole and exaggerations, if not downright lies. The real problems facing the [...]

Throughout his time in the public limelight, Republican Mike Huckabee has made obesity awareness one of his pet issues having lost over 100 pounds himself. However, as is typical of most fanatics having come to a realization or a cause a little later in the game than most, it is not enough for them to [...]

Years ago, a brave soul or two tried to bring to the attention of the American People that the Communist take over of America was well under way. They were chattered down and pretty much ignored through space and time. Much like today. Yet, we see every day or, at least which are tuned into [...]

Thirty five years ago, on January 22, 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court sanctioned abortion on demand.
Unhappy anniversary to all!
In ruling as they did, the justices became party to a human rights violation of monumental proportions.
Since 1973, nearly 50 million human lives have been exterminated through abortion in the United States. That is nearly eight times [...]

In one of the most blatant and outrageous acts in the undeclared war that Mexico is waging against America, Mexican invaders ran down and killed a brave Border Patrol agent who was simply doing his job at the Yuma Sector.
Repeat: Mexican invaders ran down and killed a BP agent and then raced back across the [...]

Although I am most grateful for the paid day off on Martin Luther King day, I have reservations about the propriety of making the occasion of his birth a national holiday.
One cannot question the fact that Dr. King was an effective warrior in the civil rights movement, a champion for African Americans, and a symbol [...]

Conservatives who voted for George W. Bush in either 2000 or 2004, or both, have once again been stabbed in the back by the most liberal president to occupy the White House since Jimmy Carter.
To begin with, W decided that fiscal responsibility, as a basic tenant of conservative governance, is not all that important. Thus, [...]
