“He is for all mankind…”

My Christmas wish friends, is that we somehow find our way back to the humility and grace of God’s son in the coming year. Mind you, we must never shrink from our responsibilities to defend freedom and liberty as He intended … Continue reading

Merry Christmas 2014???

Is there “racism” in our country? Yes, though that word speaks to an environment which hasn’t existed in the U.S. for some time. It’s more a broad brush/excuse, used by some of less than honorable intent, to paint an incomplete … Continue reading

Death by national suicide…

Quotes are tricky things and many folks often get them wrong. While a steadfast student of history, I have also been burned by the social media quote machine a time or two. This has however, made me laser focused on … Continue reading

A “Patriot64” Thanksgiving 2014…

On this Thanksgiving, I’m thankful for my family and their health. And I’m reminded of how easy it is to take these things for granted. So to all who struggle with health issues this holiday season, whether it be theirs or … Continue reading

Ignoring the real problems…

I always wait a couple of days before commenting on the more controversial stories of our time. It seems there are always caveats which ultimately shape our opinions going forward with the discourse. In this case however, the facts dictate … Continue reading

From tragedy to triumph, Kevin Harvick wins!!!

From the moment he strapped into my heroes ride in 2001, I knew this day would come. To Kevin, Tony and all the folks at Stewart-Haas Racing, and to Delana and Keelan, congratulation’s and God Bless from a huge fan…

Wrong day Bruce…

Bruce Springsteen has never really been what he makes himself out to be. The whole working class hero thing is the long ago manufactured tag-line of an aspiring musician who cut his first record in his very early 20’s. Springsteen lived … Continue reading

Bridge to foolishness…

The midterm elections were a reminder of the ideological differences dividing our nation. They were also a reminder that overall, “We the People” will eventually catch on that we’re being bamboozled by those we elect to high office. Notwithstanding generational … Continue reading

Forsaking the educated vote…

Admittedly, the fact that my 12 year-old has a deeper knowledge and understanding of civics and our founding principles than most college 20 something’s is troubling to be sure. It’s at least an indicator of more difficult times ahead for … Continue reading

Ebola/Obama…

Beckel commented on FOX recently, that Republicans always complaining about how government should be smaller are now criticizing government for the lack of adequate response to “Ebola”. Well first and foremost, CDC funding doubled during Bush 43, and is up … 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

I love the game of football. Regrettably though, professional sports as a whole has become an incubator for young athletes who’ve been coddled on their way to stardom in order to secure their financial worth to the teams and owners who … Continue reading

Obama’s “WAR”…

I think the POTUS might be right, at least to the extent “ISIS” is not “Islamic” per se. I would add however, there is at least a quasi “religious” component to the Islamic States of Iraq and Syria, as I … Continue reading

Message for Barbara Boxer: Benghazi is “a scandal”…

Moreover, your defense of the Obama Administration’s handling of the 9/11/12 attack which killed Ambassador Chris Stevens, his attaché, and two military heroes, is at the very least, shameful. There are many things the government of this country does which are beyond the … Continue reading

As far as I’m concerned, it borders on criminal when a politician promotes a false narrative for political or ideological sake. It’s even worse when they do it for reasons of personal legacy or job approval. President Obama is coming … Continue reading

The next generation…

So after all the flip-flopping, pandering, politicking and whining, the POTUS is now warning Congress that if they don’t act on the border crisis he may have no choice but to unilaterally legalize the next generation of Democrat voters. Say … Continue reading

It’s been extraordinary lately, watching our president basically walk away from his responsibilities to “We the People” and the Constitution. What’s more, he seems perfectly content to do so. I’ve done a little research and the term “lame duck” simply … Continue reading

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

On this Independence Day 2014, I’m a bit reflective and wondering how those folks I watched take the citizenship oath on TV yesterday, feel about those other folks invading this country without opposition down on the Southern border. Politics aside, … Continue reading

No running from these “consequences of elections”…

Putting aside the obvious question of why are we now negotiating with terrorists, I think this latest White House stunt could very well cement the Obama Administration’s place in U.S. history as the most inept and corrupt ever. Moreover, if … Continue reading

No admission fees for 9/11 Memorial…

In the age of Obama, when it’s certainly fashionable to embrace excessive government spending i.e. (waste and fraud by the trillions), does it strike anyone else as ludicrous that we’re whacking folks $24.00 a head to view the 9/11 Memorial … Continue reading
