  • Abortion and rape

    Published August 23, 2012

    Every abortion ends the life of an innocent unborn human being. When politicians in both parties claim to be pro-life but favor abortions because of the criminal behavior of the father, as in rape or incest, they are politically rejecting that hard truth. 

  • November’s choices -- tough to support either Romney-Ryan or Obama-Biden

    Published August 16, 2012

    We have a choice between a president who has posed more of a danger to personal freedom than any in the past 150 years and a Republican team that wants to return to Bush-style big government.

  • Gazillions -- that's the number of times our government has spied on Americans since 9/11

    Published August 09, 2012

    Gazillions. That’s the number of times the federal government has spied on Americans since 9/11 through the use of drones, legal search warrants, illegal search warrants, federal agent-written search warrants and just plain government spying

    I wonder whether Chief Justice Roberts realizes what he and the progressive wing of the Supreme Court have done to our freedom. Why? Because the power to tax is the power to destroy.

  • Can the president rewrite federal law?

    Published June 21, 2012

    If President Obama or any president of the United States can rewrite federal laws that he doesn’t like, there is no limit to his power. Then, he will not be a president. He will be a king.

  • President Obama, Attorney General Holder and executive privilege

    Published June 20, 2012

    Wednesday, President Obama granted a request by Attorney General Eric Holder to assert executive privilege over documents in the botched 'Fast and Furious' anti-gunrunning operation. The claim of executive privilege, made by our president to keep testimony or documents from compelled revelation, is not an absolute one. Thus, the claim must state the basis for its invocation.

  • Squealing vs. killing

    Published June 14, 2012

    So, who has violated the Constitution and federal law, who has caused more harm and who has performed more of a disservice to the nation: those who leaked the truth to the media, or the president, who caused death and destruction among those he hates and fears?

  • Where is the outrage?

    Published June 07, 2012

    When drones take pictures of us on our private property and in our homes, and the government uses the photos as it wishes, what will we do about it?
