“One nation under God” The Patriot Pastor…
The Mayflower Compact
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—–
“We the People”
"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

- Snarky POTUS… 2013-06-29Despite what the diehards on MSNBC and CNN would have you believe, the President’s poll numbers are dropping. No longer hovering around the 49 percent approval rating, they have now begun a marching decline, with the last RCP average at … Continue reading →patriot64

“The Ten Cannots”
1. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. 2. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. 3. You cannot help little men by tearing down big men. 4. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. 5. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. 6. You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money. 7. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. 8. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn. 9. You cannot build character and courage by destroying men's initiative and independence. 10. And you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.

Fallen Journalism…
Common sense dictates, that if you don’t believe the President and his re-election team intentionally misled the American people on Benghazi for political gain, then you’re probably a staunch partisan sycophant willing to swallow any and all ideological poison fed … Continue reading
Racism realty…
Ultimately, whether it’s Cliven Bundy, Donald Sterling, or any other idiot whose mouth is going before his/her brain is in gear, the damage they do will certainly be exploited to its maximum, albeit regrettable potential by those of less than … Continue reading
Time is short…
As we look back through the ages, we always discover the evil ones attempting to re-write history. In extreme cases we’ve witnessed unimaginable genocide as a “final solution” to the propagandized threat of a dictatorial regime. Subsequently, bloody and costly wars … Continue reading
We have the government we elected…
The Bundy Ranch incident is symptomatic of a broader issue, and frankly something I’ve been predicting for quite a while. You see my fellow Americans, our system of government was never intended to function as such, and is collapsing under … Continue reading
This “Top Cop” is nothing of the sort…
The recent dust-up between Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-TX) and Attorney General Eric Holder, is just another indicator of how bush-league the Obama bunch appears on any given day. Not only do they use our beloved Constitution as a punch-line in secret smoke-filled WH hide-a-ways, … Continue reading
Rhode Island politics as usual…
With an approval rating just shy of 27%, it’s hard to believe there’s not a viable candidate out there running against Congressman David Cicilline, (D) Rhode Island. I mean what does it say about the “Ocean State” when a man … Continue reading
Term limits anyone???
I heard Congressman Steny Hoyer on FOX trying to defend “Obamacare” this morning. Same old talking points. “College kids on their parents insurance, no exclusion for pre-existing conditions, blah, blah”. Bipartisan stuff from day-one. Oh, and don’t forget we reached … Continue reading
Community Organizer in Chief…
Watching this POTUS on any given day makes one yearn for an earlier time. Yesterday’s touchy-feely exposition with my Boston Red Sox, along with his self-righteous, gloating, and arrogant victory lap over the “Obamacare” enrollment numbers, demonstrate once again that … Continue reading
Free will to win or lose…
One need only read the letters and papers of the Framers to understand that our founding documents were written to empower individuals, not government. That premise frightens Liberal Progressives right out of their noggins. The raging debate over the Second … Continue reading
World War III…
In 1933, debates at Brown and Oxford University’s yielded surprising opinions and polls for the time. With Hitler making waves in Europe, more than half of those queried identified themselves as pacifists, with less than a third declaring they would … Continue reading
Journalistic Integrity, a dying attribute…
It is regrettable to note Sharyl Attkissons departure from CBS. Not because this good investigative reporter will have any problem finding work, (attention FOX), but rather because it speaks to the obvious decline in the integrity of “The Big Three”. I mean … Continue reading
Sheldon’s sleepover…
We have the highest unemployment numbers in the nation and a small business climate that alienates small business. We have one of the highest per state cost of living indexes, scaring our college graduates away as if Rhode Island were Chernobyl. … Continue reading
America in decline…
I read an article this morning out of the AP which highlighted the rise in Russian patriotism, and I thought to myself, ironic isn’t it. While the United States is foundering in a roiling sea of national dilemmas, the likes … Continue reading
Now, if it were Susan Rice…
Free speech on the modern American Campus is not so free as one would think. Moreover, it usually only applies to “Liberal” free speech. That said, the recent flap over former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice speaking at Rutgers University, is … Continue reading
Wrong Commander in Chief for the job…
Understanding the actual role of this nation’s armed forces has proven difficult for the Obama Administration. It causes them to think about the potential for conflict, and this is outside the lines for the utopian crowd. You see, there would … Continue reading
Romney and Palin have last laugh…
As the European Union waivers on punishing Putin because of economic fears, it appears Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin are getting the last laugh on the Ukraine crisis. This is what happens when you attempt to apply feel-good, college ideology … Continue reading
“Common Core”…
When my young son wanted to do some extra credit work for his middle school “social studies” class, I was obviously happy to help. Regrettably however, that assignment, and the eventual discussion it generated, confirmed for me what many have … Continue reading
Special Counsel please…
It is certainly curious that Lois Lerner’s attorney has included immunity as a condition of her testimony. One could assume she has something to hide. (Really?) One could also reasonably assume she’s protecting someone else. (Really??) So far as I can … Continue reading
God’s Work???
So let me understand this. We can no longer talk about God in the classroom, and our government legislates businesses owners must set aside their religious convictions. Those same elected officials facilitate and promote an entitlement society, devoid of personal … Continue reading
Doing one’s part…
Commissioner Ajit Pai of the FCC is one of those people you’re always thankful is in a position to act when it comes to safeguarding our Constitutional liberty. You see it turns out he understands the Constitution, and was not … Continue reading

Is anyone surprised Comrade Putin is flexing his muscle a bit more lately? If you are, then you need to pay closer attention to world events. I know this stuff tends to get your eyes glazing over, but make no … Continue reading
#3 returns to Daytona 500…
This Sunday I’ll be watching the Daytona 500 as I always do. I will be watching as I was back in 2001, when my hero was killed on the final lap of the “Great American Race”. Dale Earnhardt represented so … Continue reading
Presidents’ Day 2014…
The American Presidency is truly a product of liberty. From Washington’s refusal of royal title and the manipulations of Jefferson and Jackson, to the moral fortitude of Lincoln and Reagan’s “shining city on a hill”, and to the often divisive … Continue reading
“A pen and a phone”…
I’m not even sure who the Congressman was on the FOX Network defending the Obama executive order issue, but it was pathetic nonetheless. He even compared the “tension” between the White House and Congress to the struggles and differences of … Continue reading
Remaking the “American Dream”…
The next step for liberals is to lower the bar and frame the new expectations. In full view of the CBO’s recent “Obamacare” projections, folks like Congressman Keith Ellison (D) MN, are actually out there hyping the wholly unrealistic and un-American concept … Continue reading
Losing that lovin’ feeling…
And so we are treated to more HHS Secretary Sebelius conference call audio, where we hear her talking about an “encouraging and holistic” outlook in terms of the “Obamacare” enrollment numbers. “Holistic”? I’m sorry, but this nightmare is getting more … Continue reading
Yet another delay…
Politics trumps “We the People” once again, as we navigate the remainder of the Obama era – “error”. It seems now just in time for the next election(s), corporations and businesses will be allowed yet another reprieve, while individuals continue to be … Continue reading
A year of “executive” action…
President Obama made his weekly address this weekend and announced once again, his intention to trample the very document he swore an oath to “preserve, protect, and defend”. The irony of course, is that circumventing our founding principles and laws … Continue reading
The Playbook…
Listening to “School Boy” Jay Carney and Chairman of the CEA Jason Furman spin the CBO’s recent cost projections for Obamacare, was both disheartening and infuriating at the same time. I suppose this was actually a good thing however, … Continue reading
“It’s not resonating”…
FOX’s O’Reilly was asked why he thought “Benghazi” has not gotten any “traction”. His answer was simple. “It’s not resonating“. Translation, President Obama, (and Hillary for that matter), are counting on the fact the American people don’t care enough to … Continue reading
“Not a smidgen of truth” to his presidency…
Apparently, the President didn’t feel he was arrogant and smug enough during the SOTU. Nevertheless O’Reilly hung in there, though Bill is always quick to give this president the benefit of the doubt on matters of motive. That said, the … Continue reading
Dangerous double speak…
September 21, 2011 – “America’s commitment to Israel’s security is unshakeable, and our friendship with Israel is deep and enduring.” (President Barack Obama) February 1, 2014 – “You see for Israel there’s an increasing de-legitimization campaign that has been building up. … Continue reading
The Politics of “Keystone”…
Once again President Obama is caught between ideology and reality. President Clinton was masterful at navigating these kinds of pitfalls, because he was always a politician first. Barack Obama however, is a second term ideologue who actually believes his own talking points. … Continue reading
The State of the Obama Presidency…
I know I’m late to the party on this one. But truthfully, I’ve been a bit stymied on how to respond to the arrogance and elitism displayed by our President on Tuesday evening. Frankly, he sounded almost angry, and in … Continue reading
A changing nation…
It appears the son of Killer Dennis McGuire was upset about the manner in which his father was executed this past week, even going so far as to suggest that McGuire’s victim was somehow better off because her murder was not … Continue reading
“Lone Survivor”…
Looking into the eyes of Marcus Luttrell, one can see both emptiness and fire, the emptiness of a team player who lost his team, and the fire of a Navy Seal who relishes what all Navy Seals do, the chance … Continue reading
Healthcare for all???
So “School Boy Jay Carney”, (who’s trying desperately to look like a man with that beard), tells the WH Press Corps there are 2.1 million Americans enrolled in “Obamacare”. Really? Let’s take an honest look. 1. Insurance industry insiders are … Continue reading
Not in vain…
We have heard it said time and again, “elections have consequences”. Admittedly, I’ve written many pages on that topic since Barack Obama announced his candidacy. All argument aside however, there comes a moment when reality hits you right between the … Continue reading
