Becoming complacent

I am close to having lived 9 decades. Three of which were in the service of my country. However, I wonder if it was all worth it. I really wonder how those who fought in two world wars and two peacekeeping missions feel. The concept of defending America by saving Europe and Asia to keep America safe was instilled in the youth of America and the American people. The Country was secure in the early years because it had two oceans protecting it. As time went on, science and engineering made any place on the planet an easy target via aircraft and missiles. Still, we stuck to the theory we ...

Masters of hypocrisy

Let me start by saying I don’t think either party has been serving The Constitution or The People for years, setting the stage for the autocrat currently in the White House, happily dismantling the Constitution and remaking the rules as he goes about turning himself into the dictator he aspires to be. He knowingly breaks laws with impunity, ignores due process, thumbs his nose at the courts even as he claims he will do what the courts say, and makes American streets look like 1930s Germany as soldiers intimidate citizens under the guise of fighting rampant crime…but only in ...

Pork barrel Democrats

George Washington in his farewell address to the nation warned that the two biggest threats to our Republic was the party spirit ( putting the party you belong to and its agenda ahead of love and devotion to the nation and what was best for the whole nation); And second, the loss of morality and religion. The liberal and progressive Democrats want to remake our Republic into a communist party with them on top controlling the people by promising equality (except for their elite friends and family). That means equal poverty for you and me. They would bankrupt this country to reach ...

Take a rest

You start a campfire and add more wood to keep the fire blazing well. Those continuously composing the anti-Trump and political hate in general are keeping this fire ablaze. Hate speech, like cancer, will metastasize and continue to grow. It’s time to stop adding fuel to the fire of hate. How about a 60-day moratorium on anti-Trump/hate writing? Back off and stop it. Possibly, you could find something positive to write about. It seems to me that you, the negative writers, must endlessly think about what to write to fuel the fire. Your life must be terribly lonely and ...

Roe vs. Washington

The 1970s was a decade of drab decline in America’s otherwise bright history of unprecedented wealth and unstoppable drive. Only the Great Depression was worse. Typical of the incapacitating greyness of the 1970s, Congress absurdly gave away both the Panama Canal and Washington, D. C. Giving away the Canal was the joint accomplishment of President Carter and Congress. But Congress alone has constitutional control of Washington, and so giving Washington away to “Home Rule” was the fault solely of Congress. The result is that Washington is now so criminally out of control -- except ...

Uninvolved church causes misery

I usually agree with Cal Thomas, his oped of July 15 is an exception. This is the mindset which allows the anti-Christian mob to increase their influence in society, and the churches. It’s not the role of government, or anyone, outside of any organization, to determine their main mission, and what is said there. (Unless fomenting violence against citizens/nation) - THE #1 issue for people fleeing theocratic Europe. (Religion/speech rights are two sides of the same coin). Pastors must ensure their flocks are informed about current issues. Exposing unGodly (unConstitutional) ...
