When Will Voting Taxpayers Learn?
Friday, Jun 2, 2017

Almost invariably, taxpaying voters fall for the same old lies. It’s a mystery. Our bureaucrats lie to us, and we take it in the wallet every time, yet the liars remain in office. While many of us are not fooled, the majority eats it up. Jerry Brown’s bullet train to nowhere. So far it has cost multi-millions...

New National Pastime
Friday, Apr 7, 2017

The headline is a total understatement. The mild “new national pastime” is the act of hating President Donald J. Trump. The words are mild and understated because “hate” isn’t an evil or deep enough word. After every presidential election, it exists that about one-half of the voters and citizens...

ObamaScare
Friday, Mar 24, 2017

The Obama-scared have switched roles. Before the 2010 Obamacare, “the scared” were the people who were satisfied with their insurance and healthcare. Now they are the ones utilizing certain components of Obamacare, especially if they’re on the side of entitlements and not paying the full costs. President...

Obamacare Lies
Friday, Mar 10, 2017

The mainstream media walk hand in hand with the left in their aim to invoke fear into Americans concerning the Obamacare issue now that Republicans are in the majority. A primary scare is that any new plan will leave millions uninsured. Democrats now demand their place at the table for a new plan, which...

Women Who Can’t March
Friday, Feb 17, 2017

Her name is Maryam Adam. She lives in Kano, Nigeria, and is married to Mohammed Umar. All of that might sound normal to women in America; it is anything but. Maryam married Mohammed when she was just 15 years old. She was his second wife, and she would be followed by wife No. 3, Jamola Idris, and No....

The Women’s March on Washington
Friday, Feb 3, 2017

The day after President Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day included the “Women’s March on Washington”, originally called “Million Women March on D.C.”. Their mission’s intent was supposedly “not a protest against Trump or the legitimacy of the election, but said it is to shed light on women’s...

The new circus in town
Friday, Jan 20, 2017

It finally happened. The Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus is closing very shortly.  There’s nothing to fear over losing this circus because another is actively swelling to massive proportions. Hysteria and annihilation are the main attractions. It’s the Left’s Circus over...

Working Together: Not
Friday, Jan 13, 2017

There were cries from Democrats after the 2016 election demanding the new Republican domination of the House, Senate and oval office that “we” have to work together. That demand didn’t last long. The marching orders from top Democrats and the Left are to obstruct Republicans at every corner on...

Hoodlums and Headlines
Tuesday, Dec 27, 2016

It was a state of naiveté to think that Nov. 9, 2016 would bring to a close the fevered negativity and hyperbole of the loudest and often the most hateful. Expectations were that there would be grumbling and some would be vocal for a bit, but the sane among us never thought we’d be witnessing...

The Left’s Non-acceptance
Friday, Dec 9, 2016

Up to the day of the election, most people I encountered repeatedly expressed being overly saturated with the campaign videos, the repetitious verbiage, the negative trouncing, polls, unrelenting television commercials, main-stream media’s biased reporting, mailers, political taking heads. We were...
