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 …

Update to Coining a new Phrase- “Going Hillsdale” AND “Going AEI”

  You are probably aware that I am a big supporter of Hillsdale College in Michigan.  And that one of their main claims to fame is that they do not accept one red cent of government money; that enables them to teach the liberal arts exactly the way those arts should be taught.  Hillsdale's refusal …

Celebrate Independence Day

  The Declaration of Independence, along with the US Constitution, is arguably the free world's finest attestation to the values that underpin the world's most influential Republic.  Reflect on it today, and contemplate the consequences if Americans embrace tyranny right here at home.  Think about the phrase, "Consent of the Governed".  Does that still resonate …

(poundsign)LoveWins! Really??

For the past week, homosexuals and their advocates and supporters have been literally dancing in the streets, since five lawyers in black robes "gave" them the "right" to government-sanctioned "marriage".  That ruling, and a couple before it, has taken the issue out of the hands of the People, and in the case of Proposition 8 …

I’m having trouble corralling my thoughts on this week’s Supreme Court rulings

My brain seems to be a tangle of thoughts, concerns, and emotions, given the momentous rulings handed down by the nine Ivy League lawyers in black robes in Washington, D.C.  Over the experience of humanity, for the last 5,000 years of recorded human history, those nine people have in one stroke, deemed that two people …

How are Homosexual Activists like Islamist Terrorists?

...and, for that matter, like most big Liberal groups and organizations. If someone disagrees with them, or  seems to threaten them in any way, they try to (and sometimes do) destroy them. They can't simply write an op-ed in the New York Times or Washington Post.  No, they undertake boycott campaigns against businesses which deny their …

Are you thinking of going to Medical School? Take this into account first

A couple of weeks ago, there was a story in the Wall Street Journal entitled "Medical-School Test Gets a Revamp".  No kidding!  The first paragraph reads (sorry, no link, as this is behind the WSJ paywall): "The essay section is out and sociology is in, and test-takers will need to be as familiar with psychology …
