Civil War and Reconstruction

Sunday, January 7th, 2024

It seems there is a fundamental lack of knowledge about the American Civil War and Reconstruction. *Why did the relationship breakdown? Slave owners wanted the right to EXPAND slavery. US voters elected Lincoln because he promised to stop the EXPANSION of slavery. *Why did most of the Slave states attack the USA? They were the […]

Trust

Friday, January 5th, 2024

One of the big questions about “faith” is the modern use of the word.  It has come to mean, especially in the Non-Darwinian states, “belief”.  These Bible Belt Christians will whip you with the Bible and proclaim their own salvation because they believe Jesus is their personal Lord and Savior.  One of my favorite songs […]

Kissinger Paid for Nixon’s Reelection

Friday, December 1st, 2023

Henry Kissinger and Richard Nixon, like W Bush and Dick Cheney, lied about wars. They all threw American lives away to advance their political careers. They were deplorable before it wore a Red Hat. Nixon and Kissinger conspired to prolong the war in Vietnam War. Their reason? Win an election. They traded American and Vietnamese […]

Cost of Veteran’s Day

Saturday, November 11th, 2023

Western Europe hasn’t seen a war between states in 78 years. The United States hasn’t seen a war between states in 158 years. Peace is possible once politicians and people stop trying to control each other, stop trying to steal from each other and stop trying to cheat each other. Liberty and Justice for all, […]

Elections Have Consequences

Friday, October 13th, 2023

As we wake up to another day of chaos and unwillingness to compromise, it might be helpful to remember that elections have consequences.  Elections are not a game.  Elections are not about teams.  Elections are about the future you want for yourself, your children, and your neighbor. In 2006 the voters in the Gaza Strip […]

Conservative Ideology Is A Debt Problem

Thursday, May 18th, 2023

For the first hundred years of American history, there was one cause of public debt: war.  The United States of America started in debt, and it paid its bills.  There wasn’t another spike in debt to Gross Domestic Product ratio until the American Civil War. At this point, you might ask what is the debt […]

If I Had A Hammer

Thursday, May 11th, 2023

Have you ever heard the saying, “When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail”?  I’ve heard it all my life.  It served me as one of those wise sayings: use the right tool for a job. My dad would certainly agree.  He would get so angry when we used a pair […]

Conservatism Is Expensive

Wednesday, May 3rd, 2023

Fox News just agreed to pay $787.5 million for lying about Dominion voting machines.  Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton offered to use $3.3 million of tax dollars to settle a whistleblower case.  Donald Trump paid nearly $300,000 to cover up his extramarital affairs. It must be nice to have millions of dollars to pay for […]
