This kind of thing happens to me all the time. I write an article – say about Barack Obama’s latest Imperial Proclamation – to create a department to enhance education for black children – and announce that to do such would fly in the face of the equal protection clauses of the Constitution and I get called a racist. How does that work. I | Read More »
A couple of months back, we learned that the most powerful man on the planet – Barack Obama – has a kill list. Not only does he maintain a list of unsavory terrorist types and their locations, he uses that list to plan drone attacks and, yes, blow the bad guys to smithereens. (I can’t help it.

The name of | Read More »
I’m not all that convinced that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is a useful organization. As a matter of fact, I’ve come to think of the NAACP as a breeding ground for misguided militants who might as well join the New Black Panther Party. If you’re looking to amplify racial issues, and I think the NAACP is, you might as well | Read More »
As I read it, the new United Nations Arms Trade Treaty, which is supported by the Obama Administration, would limit the ability of Americans to buy and keep firearms.
