Don’t Fear Refugees?
Monday, Jan 11, 2016

They just want a safe place to go. Sure they do. Over Christmas and New Year’s, Germany had a rash of rapes and assaults. The numbers were shocking. They have never seen this kind of crime spree against women. More than 100 filed “complaints” of rape and assault over the new year, and police believe...

Merry Christmas
Tuesday, Dec 22, 2015

Happy Holidays to those who really don’t know what to celebrate or why they celebrate. Happy Run-Up-Your -Debt Day. Or Happy Festivus. Happy Happy. Whatever floats your boat, as they say. Unless you want to go back to pre-Catholic Church days, it’s simply Christmas. Yes, for those of you scholars...

Stone Prophet Gore?
Tuesday, Dec 15, 2015

I would like to know how many times one has to get predictions wrong before you kick them to the curb. In the Old Testament, when a prophet said he had a word from God and it didn’t happen, they stoned him. Seven years ago this week, Al Gore predicted in front of a German audience that the “north...

Blood On Your Hands
Monday, Dec 7, 2015

Last week we had what some are calling the second worst terror attack on American soil since 9/11. I say “some” because, at the time of this writing, I am still waiting for most of the mainstream, left-leaning media to call it what it is – an attack by extreme religious Muslim terrorists. Period. What...

ISIS is Contained – In Paris
Monday, Nov 23, 2015

President Obama gives a whole new meaning to “altered reality.” The French president called it the first year President Obama was in office. After they met, he alluded to the fact that Obama might have some real character flaws. His actions protecting America (or not) throughout his terms in office...

Mr. President, please return from Oz, or Mars, or wherever your mind is currently. Really successful people surround themselves with people of knowledge. They don’t do it to spend hordes of money. They do it to have the best information from those who have expertise so they have a greater chance of...

More Gun Laws?
Tuesday, Oct 6, 2015

Here we go again. We have to do something about guns. More gun laws. Tougher gun laws. And once again, the president completely blew past the mental health issue and went straight to gun laws without providing a single detail. Just the generic mantra of “let’s make more laws that we won’t enforce...

Blob of Cells

The Bible doesn’t condemn abortion or smoking or same-sex marriage or gay and lesbian lifestyles. Nor does it condemn smoking of marijuana or hashish or heroin or, or, or… Really, people? When will you engage your brain? I saw all kinds of people on the left suddenly get so excited to see Pope...

Shutdown? Own It
Monday, Sep 21, 2015

Put down your rocks. Look, what I’m saying is this: Let’s look at the word “fault.” As defined it means, “responsibility for wrongdoing or failure; e.g., the accident was the driver’s fault.” There’s plenty more to that definition, but we can stop here. Just key in on the “failure”...

Refugees? Really?
Tuesday, Sep 15, 2015

You see pictures of thousands and thousands of refugees coming over the mainstream media feeds. Mothers and children, families – oh, the humanity of it all. Wait. Look closer. It’s more like a 12-1 ratio men to women and children. Tons and tons of men “fleeing.” My first though was: cowards?...
