I believe that it is imperative that the Republicans win the 2024 Presidential election and then win both the Senate and the House. The radical left dominates the Democratic Party, and the thought of four more years of those people in control is too horrible to contemplate. They are destroying the country. Unfortunately, the Republicans […]

Yesterday, October 25, 2023, Mike Johnson was elected as Speaker of the House of Representatives. From all that I can learn of the man, he was a fortuitous choice, and the House may be well served by his leadership. He is reputed to be a devout Christian, a patriot, and a good husband and father. […]

It is difficult to confront orthodoxy of any kind. Its defenders use any means, fair or foul, to defend generally accepted theory, doctrine, or practice. We have seen countless examples of this over the years. Consider the problems of Copernicus and Galileo as they challenged the ancient geocentric view of the universe. Over the past […]

Every civilized person is shocked by the horrors that just took place in Israel. It reminds me of the actions of Japanese soldiers in Nanking in 1937 and in Hong Kong in 1941. I was a young boy at that time, and I remember the newsreels. In Nanking these monsters took delight in murdering 200,000 […]

In late February 1953 I arrived in Japan, and shortly thereafter I was assigned to the Headquarters Company , 24th Infantry Division, in Sendai, Japan. The 24th Division had been one of the first American units committed to the Korean War and had been severely mauled during the early fighting. One of its three infantry […]

One of my sons and I recently exchanged emails regarding Trump. He was particularly disturbed by recent accusations by General John Kelly, former chief of staff to PresidentTrump, saying that Trump was guilty of disparaging men and women who had served our nation in war, avoided being photographed with wounded veterans because of image concerns, […]

Love him or hate him, there is no excuse for the travesty taking place today in New York city. Trump’s enemies are trying their best to destroy him, and in the process they are wrecking the American legal system. All Americans who support democracy and justice should stand up against this evil. Letitia James, the […]

My son Stuart recently asked me who was my favorite President. My answer is Ronald Reagan. Reagan was far from being the most intelligent man to hold that high office, but his general good sense should not be underestimated. When confronted with difficult decisions he usually made the right choice, and he surrounded himself with […]

The assassination of President John Kennedy on November 22, 1963, is forever seared into to memories of those old enough to remember it.  Every citizen above five or six years old at that time probably recalls how and when he or she first heard the news.  For the next several days the nation was in […]

Some of Donald Trump’s former associates have turned against him and are not supporting his reelection efforts. One of the latest defectors is Jenna Ells, formerly one of Trump’s election lawyers. Ellis is now saying publicly she does not support the former president, calling him a “malignant narcissist” who cannot admit mistakes. On the other […]
