Its Israel’s Fault
Monday, Aug 11, 2014

So as soon as you pick yourself up off the floor, read the rest and I am sure I will make you mad all over again. The fight between Israel and Hamas is Israel’s fault, and I’ll tell you why. If you’re not interested in what I have to say or you believe I am full of malarkey or you just don’t...

Not a Women’s Health Issue
Monday, Aug 4, 2014

I have been saying, to the irritation of my friends on the left, that abortion has nothing to do with women’s health. One of the original questions the Supreme Court had to deal with in the 1970s when it approved this “slaughter law” was, when does life begin? Well, all of the academics and doctors...

Leader of Free World?
Monday, Jul 28, 2014

I have heard the term “leader of the free world” for years but never stopped to think about what “the free world” really meant. According to the dictionary: 1) The Free World is a Cold War–era term for the non-communist countries of the world. The free world included countries such as the United...

Say What You Mean
Tuesday, Jul 22, 2014

Are you a racist? Yes, you are. Good, I have your attention. I just wanted to see if I could get your attention by calling you a racist, since it’s what everyone else does. Today the word hardly holds any meaning. One group uses it to try to make another group feel bad or to get the attention of others...

The Perfect President
Monday, Jul 14, 2014

President Obama is our perfect president. He makes no mistakes and no bad decisions. Just ask him. He will tell you. Bad decisions are due either to “misspeaks” or to the GOP. This president has no business making decisions. His leadership skills are nonexistent. And before you go there (although...

Happy Birthday, America?
Monday, Jul 7, 2014

You know that awkward moment when you go to your wife’s aunt Mabel’s second cousin’s 96th birthday party? She is in a wheelchair, doesn’t really know who is in the room with her, and has to be fed and cleaned by others. Everyone remembers when she was a vibrant, smart and loving person, not always...

Communist America
Monday, Jun 30, 2014

This was a heavy news week. Tens of thousands of illegals trampled over our borders. Where is the president? Out campaigning. The head of the IRS knew about the missing or lost emails at the last hearing, yet said nothing. Where is the president? Out campaigning. Five nasty terrorists are released for...

$15 Death Sentence
Monday, Jun 23, 2014

Recently some cities have enacted a $15-per-hour minimum wage, piggybacking on the president signing a $10.10 minimum wage order for federal “vendors.” Not employees, just “vendors.” The cities decided they knew better and dealt a death blow to an already fragile economy. Many small businesses...

CVRA: Lowering the Voting Bar
Monday, Jun 16, 2014

California legislators have once again decided they know best. Instead of fixing our infrastructure, getting our debt under control, and making sure we aren’t the most welfare-friendly state in the union, they’ve come up with another drug-induced law called CVRA, the California Voting Rights Act...

America: Under New Ownership
Monday, Jun 9, 2014

This has been a very big news week with lots of stories to draw us away. Gwyneth Paltrow says water has feelings; Charlize Theron compares “press intrusion” to rape. Why do we give place to these morons? And Obama’s “Let’s get physical” workout recording. Even with all of that great news,...
