American Ideals and Values

Who comes first, the migrant or the homeless American? The House and Senate joined forces to give us $4.6 billion in emergency funding that answers the question.

Some Democrats got the win they wanted. Others are still angry.

Migrants won, too.

During the few moments I spent viewing last Wednesday night’s Democratic debate I listened to unlikely extremist presidential candidate Cory Booker raise his voice to near-shouting in a language I don’t understand. That sums up my feelings about the Democratic Party’s plan to retake the White House and fix America once and for all.

We were just reminded what being a patriot means on the 75th anniversary of D-Day. Being illegal and lucky enough to live in America doesn’t qualify. Some of us need to be reminded of that fact including Democrats who referred to their illegal immigrant flock as patriots as the world community honored those who led the invasion of Europe.

Democrats are always on the lookout for a new excuse to apply the “extreme Republicans” label. Nine really good ones dropped into their laps. Republican-backed abortion laws passed in a small minority of states are the new symbol for extreme conservative politics at the worst imaginable time.

Democrats wrapped up their April 2019 Issues Conference with effusive praise for their fight for the people:

This was the best, the most exciting because we really had an opportunity to reflect on the work that we’ve done in the first 100 days – which I daresay is more than was done in the last eight years for the American people…¹

That’s a pretty big boast.
