Allow me to state, up front, I expect to catch a lot of flack for these comments. But I have a burr under my saddle and I’m going to pluck it out. America’s use of drones to kill her enemies does not sit well with me. It’s distasteful to me and most of all — [...]
In an article athttp://www.express.co.uk we learn the following: “THOUSANDS of Britons are carrying out DIY (Do It Yourself) dentistry, pulling their own teeth with pliers and using household glue to stick down fillings. Unable to afford soaring charges, almost a fifth of people have all but given up going to their dentist, the Sunday Express has [...]
I recently had a “commenter” question my loyalty to America as a result of my hypothesizing that we, as a nation, may be headed for another civil war. It was an honest appraisal of our current situation, as I see it, and one at which I gingerly arrived with a great deal of uncertainty and [...]
I sometimes wonder why I even bother! It is frustrating to write column after column about illegal immigration, about amnesty for illegal aliens and how that amnesty will most certainly benefit the Democratic Party and crush the Republican Party out of existence while I watch the GOP continuing to commit suicide. THIS time, however, the [...]
To many Americans abortion is an offense so serious that capital punishment would be considered appropriate. Of course, it must be against the law first — and it isn’t. Personally, I simply cannot think of a deed more dastardly, more evil, more repulsive than deliberately killing babies. In the Scriptures, if someone injured a pregnant [...]
The GOP is making a huge mistake chasing after the Hispanic vote. It is a waste of time, a waste of money, and a waste of effort. In fact, it is a pathetic joke the GOP is playing on itself. And it will be almost as successful as the Republican Party’s wooing of the black [...]
If I may be allowed, I’d like to paraphrase Saint Paul (I believe it was) who said: “Faith is the belief in things not seen.” What Paul actually said is this: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Therein, I think, is the problem for the Christian [...]
Please try not to blow yourself up for the next four years while America takes care of a little business here at home. See, America is at one of those critical points in her history where she has to decide what she is going to be for a while. This one is a bit [...]
The record of the legacy of America’s own Sun King is being written today by those of the left who feel compelled to maintain the “official” record of the United States’ history. With apologies to the people of France, we have chosen to describe our President Obama as their Louis the XIV. At least the [...]
“These last few years we’ve seen an unacceptable abuse of power at home. We’ve paid a heavy price for having a president whose priority is expanding his own power.” You’d never guess it today, but these words are from a speech by President Obama back in 2007 when he was a candidate for President. You [...]
I’ve been on this earth quite a number of years now. I have endured any number of politicians. I have suffered — and prospered — under any number of presidential administrations from FDR to present. America has been blessed/cursed with some of the most accomplished liers on planet earth serving as our leaders. But today [...]
“I cannot accept, your canon that we are to judge pope and king unlike other men, with a favorable presumption that they do no wrong. If there is any presumption, it is the other way against holders of power … Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”… Lord Acton What will it take [...]
I’m so old I can remember when anyone who did not agree with the government of Soviet Socialist Russia (or the Soviet Union) would be arrested by the government and placed in Soviet mental institutions because, the Soviet government had determined, you see, that anyone NOT agreeing with them was obviously INSANE. Ofttimes the mentally [...]
Liberal guilt created a permanent underclass of citizens in America about one hundred and fifty years ago and still there is no light at the end of the tunnel for that underclass to claw their way towards IF they ever hope to crawl out of the societal hole liberals tossed them into at the end [...]
The Green Enemies of Humanity, Science and the Truth
Among the greatest liars on Earth today is the international organization called Friends of the Earth (FOE). It has engaged in the most scurrilous fear-mongering for decades, along with Greenpeace, the Sierra Club, and the World Wildlife Fund, while all the time they pulled in billions in funding. In May 2012, the Daily Caller noted [...]
WOW! What a turn around! I refer of course, to the repentance of the Mainstream Media. Repentance here is meant in the classic definition: turn around and go the other way. That’s what the press has done the past few days. And , yes, it IS remarkable! It is nigh on to laughable to observe [...]
Anti-pesticide activists falsely blame new pesticides for bee colony problems. Chemophobic anti-pesticide groups are at it again. This time they’re attacking a widely used and safe new insecticide, but their assertions and real agendas are nothing new. Radical environmentalism rose to ascendancy on opposition to pesticides, specifically DDT. “If the environmentalists win on DDT,” Environmental [...]
People in the Washington, DC area like to worry. Part of it’s because leftists are required to show “concern” about the darnedest things and part of it is because a large government workforce has to discover something to do or at least find a way to look busy. For example, the National Weather Service suffered [...]
The President as Sergeant Schultz
How is it that, time and again, the most powerful man on the planet doesn’t seem to have a clue what is happening in his own government? Famed for never accepting blame for anything, the more I see President Obama these days, the more I am reminded of Sergeant Hans Schultz of the TV sitcom, [...]
