For some twenty years, President Obama sat in his chosen church on Sundays listening to a hate monger who took up the cause of any left-wing extremist black power hate crazy government conspiracy truthing idiots. For all that time, both him and his Jacky-O wanna be wife had front row seats, bathing in the manipulating [...]

…is the family of the individual circled below. Never forget the work of the so-called ‘torturees’: So another individual (one of scores) films himself being waterboarded… and yet he can sit up an talk about it immediately with no physical effects. Unquestionably unpleasant, as the hundreds of American service personnel who voluntarily go through it [...]

Ron Paul thinks it is possible and after a lot of reading the past 5+ years I agree with him.

Igor Pararin has been in the news a lot the past two months for his remarks on the breakup of the United States. The recent report in the Wall Street Journal expands on Igor’s previous comments and sets his prediction for 2010 when the USA will finally collapse. In September 1998, he attended a conference [...]

I’m assigning some assigned reading on a way of thinking that was put forward by the Frankfurt School called Critical Theory. The Wikipedia articles give some insight into the main goals of the neo-Marxist ideas, but what people need to understand is how these have contributed to reshaping the culture of the West since the [...]

For the majority of Americans, more thoughts of charity occur this time of year than at any other. After all, the Christian world is celebrating the ultimate charity of God (don’t worry; this will not be a religious piece). For those of us actively involved in charity the year round, it is a time to [...]

Today’s stock market rally was predicted by blogger Vox Day last week. I have read his blog occasionally for the past few years but only recently did I start seeing posts about Austrian economics and notice that he really does understand how the market works. The truth is the market has a long way to [...]

A great article on the real meaning of Thanksgiving: The less industrious members of the colony came late to their work in the fields, and were slow and easy in their labors. Knowing that they and their families were to receive an equal share of whatever the group produced, they saw little reason to be [...]

I came across Bill Whittle’s site in a link to his piece on harrassment training; for him, it’s a short piece, but like most of his work, speaks eloquently on personal responsibility and family responsibility for moral character of its members. Abrogating that responsibility to government gets easier every day and modern government is always [...]

Deflation is not the evil people and economists make it out to be. The same economists who say “inflate, zero percent interest rates now!!” are the ones who said everything was perfect in the economy during the 2003-2005 period. The market is demanding inflation because the money supply has been too large. The supply of [...]

I am announcing my endorsement for president. It is mainly based on the “consent of the governed” philosophy. Going back hundreds of years to the founding of the United States we see the first society that was founded explicitly by the consent of the governed. As written in the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson: [...]

I wholeheartedly agree with the objective of the Alaskan Independence Party (to free itself from the US government), but apparently the writers at the Huffington Post believe that secession is anti-American. Secession is the most American opinion that one can have–the foundation of our country was based on the belief that the mother government of [...]

How Did We Get Here?
Remember the 1960’s, the decade of free love with juicy girls ready to wrap their arms around anyone? It came with a huge drawback though, a counter-culture that flipped the bird towards the old fuddy-duddy establishment. It did not matter is that old establishment stood on moral ground. Anyone not within the counter-culture was deemed [...]
