- 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

- POTUS knows best… 2013-06-25The science of “climate change” is debatable at best, and while curbing pollution should be an objective of any civilized nation, it mustn’t come solely at the expense of the economic stability necessary to pay for it. I am not writing today to debate … Continue reading →patriot64

I tweeted that if the president’s comparison of Republicans to Iranian hardliners during a speech at American University yesterday was valid, then it could be said he and the Left were likely in collusion with ISIS. I’ve since pulled that … Continue reading

The art of the “debate”…
We are truly living in defining times here in the U.S. While a flamboyant presidential candidate is ridiculed by the press for telling the truth, the present occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue redefines the word debate almost hourly, leaving many … Continue reading

So healthcare is finally revealed for what it is, a grand illusion performed by our president to a sleepy and complacent audience (us). Now I know I’m gonna catch heck for this one, but Mr. Obama operates much like a … Continue reading

It seems everywhere we turn these days less than honorable folks are attempting to re-write history and portray our nation as something evil. Even our so-called educators are now indoctrinating our children and filling their heads with false narratives, designed … Continue reading
Hitching a ride on a failed presidency…
Quite frankly, whether it’s the Administration’s failure to lead on really any level internationally, or the president’s own indifference to our military which provides for the freedoms we enjoy, I think it’s fair to say that the status of our … Continue reading

In the broader sense, world history draws a detailed and obvious map should we of the 21st century choose to follow it. Much of the problem however comes when that history is shelved, revised, or otherwise ignored. In the more … Continue reading

The very soul of liberty was attacked in France, leaving an entire civilized world to contemplate how far we will allow a blatantly sadistic and inhuman ideology to go. For our part, there has been much written and bloviated about … 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

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

After yesterday’s midterm elections, and laying aside the fact my home state of Rhode Island remains a microcosm for what’s wrong with our republic, it appears the Obama agenda has finally been derailed. Admittedly I believe this is a good … 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

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
Executive overreach…
