Properly Grateful…Joy of Giving

I like to think that I count my blessings every day, not just on Thanksgiving Day.  This year, I've had numerous occasions to reflect on the manifest blessings in my life, and my country.  I was fortunate to be born in the United States of America, which has, since its founding in the 18th Century, …

Photo Essay: University of Cambridge, Summer 1991

I admit it.  I am a total Anglophile.  I'm a sucker for a British accent, and since a trip around Britain in 1984, I fell in love with the city of Cambridge.  In the summer of 1991, I was fortunate enough to attend a three-week program put on by UCLA in Cambridge.  Attendees could take …

Some Thoughts on Paris, Friday the Thirteenth

The massacre of over a hundred innocent French and other citizens was horrific, and expected.  The enemy of Western Civilization has been invited in their thousands to Western Europe for decades.  Islam, and Islamists will forever be the enemy of Western Civilization, until they are rooted out and destroyed.  Chance of that happening any time …

Just when you thought the OTL administration couldn’t get more Terrible….

They go and intervene in a lawsuit by terrorism victims against the Palestinian Authority...on the side of the Palestinians!  I have said many times that OTL is an Arab Sympathizer...  This story on the Fox News site today, really takes the cake!  Instead of a link, I reprint the story below in its entirety.  Do …

Banality of Evil…Planned Parenthood Butchers Babies

I didn't think I'd have need to use this photograph again.  My friends and I have been heartsick the past week, as the videos detailing the evil done by Planned Parenthood have been gradually revealed in videos.  Just when it seems that the situation could not be more terrifying, the pro-life group releases a new …

Socialism Doesn’t Work…Even at 70K

Funny, normally the levelers known as Socialists or Communists prefer to bring the high-earners down so everyone is "equal".  This business owner in Seattle tried it the other way, making the minimum salary at his tech firm $70,000 per year.  Yes, even new hires with less experience were paid at that rate, higher to start …

What the Mainstream Media Keep from You-The Iran Deal

So, what do you think of the "deal" the Obama Administration has "negotiated" with Iran (the world's greatest sponsor of terrorism)?  The people whose opinions I value most ALL think this will be detrimental to world order, arm more terrorists who shout "Death to America!", start a Middle East nuclear arms race, and spell the …

Going Hillsdale and AEI-No Social Security or Medicare for Me

I guess that makes me a risk-taker. I am currently 66 years old, my full SS retirement age, which makes me Social Security and Medicare-eligible.  A couple of years ago, I made the decision to reject both SS and Medicare. I am gainfully employed, and expect to be employed for the foreseeable future. I am …
