Democrats Win at Any Cost but the People Lose This

By now it is excruciatingly obvious who is ready to do whatever it takes to pull off a big election win. It’s not the right. We are more interested in giving this one away. Instead, it’s the left. Democrats are determined to win at any cost. They get better at it year after year. After all, we taught them that the price doesn’t matter if it means getting what you want. In … [Read more...] about Democrats Win at Any Cost but the People Lose This

National Leaders Take Away Our Respect

Bill Clinton. Do national leaders deserve respect? Christopher Mardorf /FEMA

It’s embarrassing to think about the shoddy roster of national leaders who will grace Cleveland and Philadelphia this summer. Some of them will eventually make their way to Washington as Cabinet members, advisors, and sycophants for a new administration. Some are already entrenched. One will become the president. In the process we may forget that something very important was … [Read more...] about National Leaders Take Away Our Respect

Why trust Clinton? State Dept. Photo.

I am not going to waste anybody’s time going on about the Clinton-Comey-Lynch circus. We knew how it was going to turn out. Paul Ryan’s protests won’t change anything.

The country is ready to trust … [Read more...] about Why Trust Clinton? You Don’t Have a Choice.

Even if you don’t trust polls it’s safe to say that many celebrating being free this Fourth of July will also be voting for Hillary Clinton. Count me out. I’d take a long shot on nuclear annihilation at the hands of the crazy right winger she keeps warning us about before I’d submit to another condescending Democrat. Why? Because I like being free. It’s what this country is all … [Read more...] about Being Free Is Not a Deal With Government

Mexicans: Criminals, Rapists, Drug Dealers, or Saints?

What a sorry question to have to answer: are Mexicans criminals, rapists, and drug dealers or are they hard-working, long-suffering Hispanics who only want to help us make America better? California, the state with the largest Hispanic population, will decide on Tuesday. Primary voters can choose between two positions on an issue that has little to do with running the country … [Read more...] about Mexicans: Criminals, Rapists, Drug Dealers, or Saints?
