An appeal to my reasonable conservative friends: If you are not reasonable and open-minded, don’t read any further. I’m not looking for “zots.” I’m looking for reasonable people who are serious about making the right choice. When I know I’ve chosen wisely, I feel at peace, without doubt in my mind, and start to get excited – like Chrissy Mathews, I get “that tingle.” How | Read More »

Shocking things have become such a daily occurrence under the Obama regime that I gave up blogging a few months ago. There was no way to cover all the outrages — or even to pick what to cover from the overwhelming barrage. This morning, however, something came along that hits so close to home, I am inspired to write. The horror of ObamaCare has now | Read More »

If you don’t know who Thad McCotter is, don’t worry; you will soon. The next GOP candidate debate is scheduled for August 11, and it’s safe to say that McCotter’s presence in the lineup will get a lot of folks’ attention. Let’s put it this way: he’s not only the tallest guy in the room, but the brainiest. Also, the wittiest — as anyone who’s | Read More »

Weiner’s wife, highly placed in U.S. State Dept., has disturbing ties to Islamist radicals

Here is a chillingly prophetic piece dating from January 7, 2009. Think back, for a minute, to those days after Obama had been elected but before he’d been inaugurated… those days of “The Office of the President-Elect” and the cheap-imitation presidential seal… And then, only 25 days after this piece was written, Obama was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize — after being in office | Read More »

Oh, if only the death of Osama bin Laden’s death could solve all our problems. No doubt we’ve dealt a serious blow to al-Qaeda. Unfortunately, Hezbollah, which has terrorist cells all over the Western Hemisphere — including within U.S. borders — is an even greater long-term danger to us than al-Qaeda is. In case anyone needs a refresher, Hezbollah is the Iranian-sponsored terrorist organization that | Read More »

What exactly is the nature of Islam? Specifically: Is Islam itself evil — or only certain interpretations of it? Can Islam be reformed — or is that impossible by its very nature? Should we encourage “moderate” Muslims — or is that just wasted effort? Ever since 9/11, Americans have been asking themselves these questions. Christians often ask an additional question: Is it worthwhile, or even | Read More »

Nothing should shock me anymore about the depth of humanity’s oldest hatred — nevertheless I am in shock. The next Holocaust is being prepared — as the world looks on. And does nothing. On Wednesday, in Cairo, Fatah — the terrorist group founded by Yasser Arafat that now styles itself as “moderate” and runs the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank — signed a reconciliation | Read More »

Many psychologists and pundits have commented, over the years, on Barack Obama’s aloofness, stiffness, weird sense of humor and apparent emotional disconnect from those he is supposed to be serving. In the last few days, this topic has again come to the fore, as many Americans have noted the rather strange discrepancy between Obama’s knowing, as of Friday, about the planned attack on Osama bin | Read More »

Don’t get me wrong. I recycle every kind of paper, metal, glass and plastic; I take my own reusable canvas tote bags with me to the grocery store; I purchase from local and/or organic farmers as much as possible. I believe in good stewardship of the earth God has given us. What’s changed is my attitude toward “environmentalist” advocacy groups. I joined the Sierra Club | Read More »
