History (is) For Dummies…

History is the great educator, should we choose to embrace its lessons. The first two decades of the 21st Century have ushered in the consequences of raising a generation, educated by fools, absent the guidance of dying heroes and unwilling … Continue reading

Truth and Reason First…

I’m not naïve to the ways of Washington to be sure and I realize the two political parties do their best to each sing with one voice, though the Democrats seem to do the best job of it. But does … Continue reading

Radical Trend…

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. is the poster child for the new party of BHO, emotional, factually challenged and wholly unqualified to represent anyone or anything. Now we’ve had folks elected to high office in the past who couldn’t find their way … Continue reading

Here’s hoping and praying for truth in 2019…

I truly do consider it a privilege to know and study history, especially that of this free republic. So watching that freedom unwind can be discouraging to say the least. Over the Christmas holiday, my family and I spent some time outdoors … Continue reading

Obama’s Legacy…

Huzzah! The nation awaits its 45th President of The United States. Meanwhile, 44 is struggling like none of his predecessors to shape and mold his legacy into something it simply will never be. In his last 20 or so days … Continue reading

A “Change Election”…

Say what you will about campaign 2016, but news media pundits and egg-head pollsters basically neglected, (or simply ignored), a huge swatch of angry voters who’d had enough of phony economics and an administration seemingly focused only on re-writing our … Continue reading

We’re all Americans…

Understanding the events in Orlando this past weekend is something which will require much time and prayer to be sure. The loss of so much humanity in one horrific action can stun the mind into utter disbelief. In these moments … Continue reading

“Evidence, facts are on our side.” – President Obama…

On its face, one could say that statement was just political bluster, spewed by a failed and departing president in search of a legacy. But this is truly puzzling, and speaks to what many are now calling, President Barack Obama’s … Continue reading

Don’t hold your breath…

Denial is one thing, ideology is quite another. President Barack Obama is clearly of the latter category, and he makes no bones about it. So for those looking for the POTUS to run to the nearest lectern and state what … Continue reading

Of pilgrims, refugees, and able-bodied military age men…

It seems re-writing history has become the hallmark of the Obama presidency. Mr. Obama’s propensity to mold and shape past events to fit his ideological view of our nation and the freedom granted it by God, would actually be entertaining … Continue reading

See, I told ya’ so…

I seem to remember lots of talk about this inexperienced and even unqualified upstart from Chicago wanting to be the President of the United States back in 2008. It was truly odd how a still wet behind the ears Senator, … Continue reading

Pretty nice lookin’ boat aye Mr. President???

Isn’t it ironic that just as the POTUS is jetting around the country screaming about “climate change” while singlehandedly burning off more fossil fuel than a small city, the very real threat of China’s burgeoning Navy was shadowing him just … Continue reading

All is as it should be..?

There appears to be some confusion about our current status and/or policy for dealing with Islamic terrorism. Many on the Right believe our president is inept or simply blind to the threat. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Now … Continue reading

Presidential faux pas… Again???

Once again the POTUS has taken the low road, this time during an NPR interview with Steve Inskeep, when he suggested Governor Scott Walker “bone-up” on his foreign policy. With all due respect to the office, Mr. Obama just can’t … Continue reading

There’s been much said about the politics and person of our twice elected president. Truth be told, I’ve always been a little hesitant to speak to Mr. Obama’s persona and how it affects his job performance, however it’s high time … Continue reading

Ideological foolishness at our expense…

To know history is to know the “Crusades” were far more than what modern Islam and even the president of the United States portray them as. In fact much of the time period should be viewed as an east/west defensive reaction to … Continue reading

‘Shadow of crisis has passed’… Really?

Kudos to the Republicans for taking the highroad after last night’s State of the Union address. I have no such political desire today. As expected, the president embellished his record and misrepresented much of our nation’s current station to a … Continue reading

FOX on the brain…

President Obama can’t put aside his battle with Fox News. The problem is his presidency is so difficult to defend. The POTUS recently tweeted that “While affordable healthcare might still be a threat to freedom on Fox News, its working … Continue reading

Pool Hall Politics…

The problems at the border are old ones to be sure. Many a president has looked the other way or used Band-Aids where tourniquets were needed, and usually only in order to garner the support of a particular demographic on election … Continue reading

Immigration flyby…

First and foremost, it’s understood that what we now have at the southern border is a humanitarian crisis, ironically born out of the president’s own policies. Moreover, it’s nothing short of heart breaking to see these children being used as … Continue reading

As I watch the president’s poll numbers plummet, and I see much of what I feared would occur now come to pass, gloating would almost be too easy. But much to the chagrin of my Liberal Progressive detractors, I feel … Continue reading

It didn’t take the President long to pull the “Bush card” regarding the VA scandal. Accountability and honor are not necessarily hallmarks of this administration. Nevertheless, it’s noteworthy that many of the same responses keep coming up whenever President Obama’s … Continue reading

“Obamaromneycare”???

Listening to HHS Secretary Sebelius attempt to explain “Obamacare” was almost as painful as listening to the President at Boston’s Faneuil Hall today, try and compare the law which bears his nickname to that of “Romneycare”. Two things did jump out at … Continue reading

“Why don’t they try winning an election.”???

“Why don’t they try winning an election”? Maybe the President was out of town, or possibly playing the back nine at Camp David when Republicans cleaned his political clock in the 2010. Once again we see Barack Obama as whole … Continue reading

I was not surprised to hear the President “pivot” to the economy again in the face of some declining approval ratings, but this time was a little more annoying. It’s no longer enough to point out the paper tiger economy … Continue reading

Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee summed it up best today when he said the President “missed another opportunity to bring the issue of race into context”. Not long after Barack Obama’s first election I wrote about how I didn’t vote for … Continue reading
