American Values

The American Ideals and Values category includes posts on freedom and liberty, equality and rights, the battle between liberals and conservatives and most important, what it means to be American.

The bulwarks of American greatness espoused by our Founding Fathers in the Declaration of Independence and Constitution have been replaced by ideals and values dictated by increasingly divisive, polarized politics.

The growing might of a America's radical left undermines, re-imagines, and destroys our fundamental beliefs about what is good, morally justifiable, and worth protecting at any cost, whether that means protecting the sovereignty of our borders, defending the First Amendment, affirming property rights violated by squatters, or saying no to thriving, pro-terror antisemitism on college campuses.

President Biden's weaponized justice, covert censorship, election manipulation, and autocratic executive orders reimagined our great nation and started us down the path to social, economic, and moral decline.

We no longer live in the America envisioned by our Founders. We have devolved into a vicious, valueless Banana Republic for the sake of delivering overwhelming power to one political party.

With 14.7% unemployment can we agree that all businesses are essential? How about all of us being in this together? Can we agree on that too? The American people might concur. We aren’t the ones calling the shots. Fighting economic devastation is impossible when the ones who create our pandemic strategy are not only fighting each other, but trying to benefit from adversity made … [Read more...] about Democrats First Agenda Empowers Party While We Suffer

Have Faith in America. Weakness Will Fail Us.

American flag waving in the breeze

Why do we need a contentious political party to watch our backs? Just because Democrats want us to isn’t a good enough reason. It’s what President Trump would call a hoax. All we need to do is have faith in America and back public officials who agree. What we have done for nearly 250 years works. It’s something we can put our trust in, yet many of us are led astray. The … [Read more...] about Have Faith in America. Weakness Will Fail Us.

Politics in 2019 Explained With These Four Words

January 1, 2020 by Bob Prokop Leave a Comment

Four words from Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar explain our politics in 2019. It was a tumultuous year for sure, but worse than the unprecedented anger between left and right were the limits the left explored to test the boundaries of our values. It was far too easy to excuse affronts that would have been intolerable before hating President Trump became not only fashionable, but … [Read more...] about Politics in 2019 Explained With These Four Words

Don't thank God. Give thanks to Speaker Pelosi. She is hard at work defending America. The rest of Washington may be infested by hypocrites, greed heads, right wing radicals, left wing extremists, babbling idiots, career hangers-on, and every other kind of undesirable political animal imaginable, but at least we can be thankful that there is one person in charge we can rely on … [Read more...] about Give Thanks to Speaker Pelosi for Defending America First

Money is Washington’s Only Value, So Stop Waving Our Flag

There has been more flag waving in the House of Representatives in the past two weeks than we’ve seen in the last two hundred years. Thanks for that goes to the impeachment-crazed hypocrites who are trying to convince the country of the necessity of their actions while they plan for a future that is very, very different from what America’s values represent. The truth is … [Read more...] about Money is Washington’s Only Value, So Stop Waving Our Flag
