Those of you who read this blog know that I am a Trump supporter. I am aware of his many warts, but I believe he truly wishes what is best for this nation and I approve of most of his actions in pursuit of American “greatness.” Contrariwise, I am appalled by the anti-Christian bias and […]
Some days ago I had dinner with a new acquaintance here at Charlestown. He seems to be a fine fellow, and I enjoyed conversing with him. We soon discovered that we were on opposite sides in our views on politics and the cultural war going on in our nation. Though he is neither gay nor […]
