Revenge

As the tide appears to shift toward the probable reelection of Donald Trump as President, many Democrats are expressing great alarm.  Some are saying that Trump will establish himself as a dictator, and it will be the end of the republic.  Others fear a wave of retribution and the possible internment of Trump’s enemies. I […]

Nightmare!

I don’t usually remember my dreams, but last night I had one that was vivid and frightening. In this dream, Joeseph Biden, under pressure from Democrat Party insiders, withdrew his name as candidate for the Presidency. At their August convention the Democrats then united around an all- female slate consisting of Hillary Clinton and Kamala […]

Useful Idiots

This morning, June 16, I watched a replay of an October 2020 Joe Scarborough program.  The New York Post article on the Hunter laptop had just come out, and Scarborough was blasting the story as Russian disinformation.  Scarborough wasn’t alone.  Other mainstream media commentators also believed the laptop to be a possible Russian plant, and […]

Biden’s Decline

President Briden’s disability has become increasingly obvious.  It is painful to watch him in his public appearances.  Never a person of great honesty and intellect, Biden shows increasing signs of serious cognitive decline.  As things stand at this moment, it is hard to understand how Democrat Party leaders could allow him to stand as their […]

Hunter Biden’s Trial

Hunter Biden was found guilty of gun charges in Delaware.  The evidence was overwhelming, and the jury made the correct decision.  I was concerned that a hometown jury might fail to convict Hunter, and I was pleased that, in this instance, the system worked.  The chief prosecutor appeared very reluctant to prosecute him until he […]

Defend the Truth!

This blog post is in response to a recent opinion piece by David French in the New York Times.  French describes himself as an Southern-born evangelical Protestant. I identify myself likewise, and I’m certain that he and I must agree on many things.  However, I strongly disagree with many of his statements in this article. […]

Childhood Fantasies

This morning my thoughts turned to memories of my childhood and some of my weird misperceptions of that time.  As a very young child, I would often visit my next door neighbor, Mrs. Cheek, sit in a kitchen chair, munch biscuits, and watch her big coffee percolator at work.  As jets of coffee appeared in […]

A Prescient Warning

(I extracted much of the following from a recent article by Cal Thomas. It should be read by every American who is concerned about our system of justice and the recent Trump trial.) In 1940 United States Attorney General Robert H. Jackson addressed the country’s chief federal prosecutors and U.S. Attorneys. Among other remarks, he […]

Trump’s Dysspeakia

I wrote this on the morning of May 31, 2024.  A few minutes ago I watched as Donald Trump began a news conference at Trump Tower in New York City.  I was immediately struck by the veritable avalanche of words and thoughts from the former President as he spoke about the just concluded hush money […]

Trump Hate

In our men’s forum this morning (May 30) I stirred the pot by provoking a discussion on the relative merits of Joseph Biden and Donald Trump.  Not many favorable things were said about Biden, but Trump was thoroughly eviscerated.  Intense dislike for the man radiated from every corner of the room. This is a group […]
