This is not another post about kneeling protests. It is a post about how all these actions are intertwined and the root from which these “protests” stem. I have long understood that the progressive movement cannot be explained as a function of a singe event, rather it is a string of events over time forming…

This is a fact: the NFL is not protest8ing, and this has nothing to do with social justice. The NFL is participating in open subversion of this Nation — the very nation to which it owes its own existence. Why do I say this is a fact? Because…

NOTE: The issue over the supposed NFL player protest is not what the players and media would like you to believe. However, it is not easy to explain why this is true. Most people do not want to spend the time necessary to understand everything that is in…
A thought on statues, symbology and such things: This isn’t just about racism, bigotry or history. This is about controlling what you feel and believe, it is designed to strip any meaning anything holds for you and replace it with some generic, government approved belief.

Mencken Several people, primarily Trump supporters, think his lack of definable ideology is a good thing. He’s there to make good deals, I’m told. This is how he worked in heavily Democrat…
I crossed an item off my bucket list yesterday. I ran a marathon. I know that is small potatoes in the grand scheme of things but it was a goal I set and I’m pretty happy that it was achieved. I have been training for 6 months but at my age of 58, this task…
A friend asked if I could distill my political philosophy down to one sentence. “Absolutely,” I said, “If it takes more than one sentence to describe what you believe, you probably aren’t that sure what you believe. In most cases, I find that is true – if you can’t apply Occam’s Razor to your belief…
It is a tale of two cities – both subjected to disasters of historic proportions, both large and modern port cities, and both disasters happening under a Republican administration but that seems to be where the similarities end. With Katrina and New Orleans, even though the real disaster was caused by the breaching of a…
