Lessons are being taught all around us. Some people learn from them and some people don’t. Some people learn them, live them and then forget. Lessons are most easily forgotten when your candle burns at both ends. You know what I’m talking about. History is such a great teacher, but some things you must learn from your mom and dad. Your friends can teach you | Read More »
They say Obama is channeling Reagan. Does anybody believe that? How can anyone in the media who was alive during the Reagan years let Obama get away with that? Pimps, that’s what the Lamestreamers are. . . but not The Washington Times. Listen to President Reagan as he speaks about the Challenger disaster, January 28, 1986: “We mourn seven heroes … who escaped the surly | Read More »
For Those With a Short Memory, We Didn’t Start the Fire.* If you can’t see the image go here. Well now. The Democrats got their clocks cleaned in November. Voters took them to the woodshed and when the spankin was over, the Republicans once again owned the House and made significant gains in the Senate. Shell-shocked (they shouldn’t have been) Democrats said oh well, we’re | Read More »
Potentially, a government is the most dangerous threat to man’s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims. -Ayn Rand When President Obama said he wanted a civilian security force as well funded and supplied as our military, what was he talking about? It seems he was thinking about Big Sis and her department. With the TSA, | Read More »
I was unpacking some Christmas lights today that were wrapped in old newspapers. I am late again with this chore. I struggle dealing with things I don’t like to do. That’s normal, isn’t it? I noticed from one of the old, crinkled newspaper pages that the big national story of December 29, 2002, was that extended unemployment benefits had expired the day before. Pundits were | Read More »
Do these guys have the right stuff? Do they have any idea at all what drove the November election results? _________________________________________________________________________ They did it again. They went wobbly. The Republican leadership doesn’t believe in the message the voters sent just a mere 5 weeks ago. They just proved it by agreeing to more big spending and more nanny statism. One begets the other as history | Read More »
Good Grief. Just take a look at this sorry display and clearly the angry, clueless ruling class Democrats are doing the pouting. Senator McCaskill admits to class warfare . . . even brags about it. (H/T Gateway Pundit) _______________________________________________________________________ It will not fly, madame. What else do you have besides class warfare to try mute the real message of the election . . . and | Read More »
Something is wrong with this picture. ————————————————————————————————– Black Friday. They certainly got the name right because its appeal is to our darker angels. The toys and gadgets we buy are only stuff and stuff doesn’t last. Possessions can not mend the troubled heart. Are Americans that bored and desperate for amusement? Yes, many are. Some are crazed and here’s proof. Will the latest toy or | Read More »
Normally, when someone has been fired from a job, he or she is required to pack up all belongings and vacate the premises by the end of the day. That person is no longer accountable and may no longer act in the best interests of the employer. On Election Day, the American people issued pink slips to dozens of members of Congress and sent a | Read More »
When I first found my way to RedState, now nearly a year ago, the first diary I read was by Art Chance. The man can write. His overarching message was about the use of power and how to use it aggressively, even ruthlessly. Take no prisoners. So said the aging eagle. Fascinating and written from an insider’s point of view as the Labor Relations Director | Read More »
