Veterans’ Day-Memories of Vietnam-The day after, fears for tomorrow
November 12, 2008 | 1 Comment
Duty, Honor, Country. Thanks to all the vets who served and died, who sacrificed their futures for our benefit. “Greater love hath no man…”
Thanks to all the vets who served and lived to make this country a better place. I’m more sad and thoughtful than usual this year, because I’m afraid history is about to [...]

Don’t trust the Mainstream Media on Obama or guns! Defense Mechanism “Fairness Doctrine”
November 9, 2008 | Leave a Comment
On 11-08-08, Fox News reported that the Washington Post Ombudsman admitted that the election coverage of that newspaper favored Obama. No kidding! Golly gee! I hadn’t noticed. Who would have thunk it? How could I have missed something as obvious as that? Guess I must have been bitter and [...]

This is especially important during this election cycle, since Barack H. Obama’s primary claim to fame was that he was against the 2003 invasion of [...]

Non-violence a non-starter as counter to established modern tyranny
September 8, 2008 | 3 Comments
Much is often made by Left-wing “pacifists” about the fact that Gandhi was successful in ending British rule in India through the use of non-violent protest. If the game is Gandhi versus Great Britain with the world press looking on and sympathizing with the anti-colonials, Gandhi wins. But what would have happened, if Gandhi had [...]

War on Terror and media bias-Whose side are they on?
June 22, 2008 | 1 Comment
Usually, the people who want to disarm Americans are the same people who seem to want the U.S. to do badly in the War on Terror. Take this headline from the Denver Post. “Town braces for latest Iraqi offensive, Security forces enter Amarah to confront cleric al-Sadr’s Mahdi Army.” Last line: “Residents said that fliers had [...]
