Statistics vs Truth
According to recently released FBI statistics, crime rates are down 23% compared with the same period in 2023. Violent crime fell 10% and reported rapes decreased by 18%. Aggravated assaults during that period decreased 8%, according to the data, while robberies fell 14% and reported property crime was down 13%. One Democrat supporter labeled these […]
A Chance
I’m praying for a Republican victory in November. I’m convinced that a Kamala Harris presidency would be disastrous for America. I also realize that the election of Donald Trump would be no guarantee of peace and prosperity. The person elected will face a multitude of problems. War is raging between Russia and the Ukraine, and […]
Devastation
Devastation has been loosed on Florida’s gulf coast and on the residents of mountain towns in western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee. In some areas of the southern Appalachians hurricane Helene dumped a foot or two of rain, filling mountain rivers and streams to overflowing, destroying roads, and flooding towns and cities. My thoughts and […]
The Undying Monster
As a young boy I remember seeing a British horror film titled The Undying Monster. We Americans have our own undying monster. It’s the abortion issue. On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs Wade and sent the abortion question back to the states. But the debate rages on. Abortions, legal or otherwise, […]
A Litany of Lies
Both of our major political parties are prone to exaggerate the defects of their opponents, but Democrat Party leaders have developed this strategy into an art form. Truth is not a concern. Let me give you several glaring examples. Each election season Democrat Party leaders trot out the accusation that the Republicans are hell-bent on […]
Faith, Hope, Love and Truth
I apologize for my last post. As Christians, we should never despair. I was simp;y reflecting my sadness over the fact that so many of my fellow Americans appear to be deceived by a shallow fraud like Kamala Harris. Search for truth, my friends. I have been encouraged by recent messages from Mike Pompeo, Secretary […]
Terror
The possibility that Kamala Harris might win the Presidential election strikes terror in my soul. I cannot believe that American citizens would elect a person who has a history of espousing extremely radical positions on a wide range of subjects. In the past she has supported open borders, abolition of bail requirements for criminal defendants, […]
Who is the Liar?
This morning I was listening to one of my favorite classical music stations. Unfortunately, it receives funding from NPR, so listeners are occasionally subjected to public radio’s biased news coverage. As I listened, the NPR reporter said that former President Trump was concerned about possible cheating in the coming election, and, if elected, he promises […]
Cheney’s Choice
It saddened me to learn that Dick Cheney intends to vote for Kamala Harris. I’ve always respected our former vice-president as a patriot and straight shooter. Now Cheney says that Trump tried to steal the last election and is the greatest threat to our republic in our nation’s history. I’m convinced that Dick Cheney is […]
