There has been, as you’ve no doubt noticed, a persistent theme surging back and forth between the polar spectrums of political thought, regarding the question of ‘Class Warfare’. It especially animates many media personalities on the Right, who decry any criticism of the unprecedented rise of the accumulation of wealth within a small statistical segment […]
I realize that I’m going to establish for myself, a reputation as an iconoclast and a ‘Grinch that stole Thanksgiving’ – or at the very least the ‘Grinch that defended the theft of Thanksgiving’. I would be happy to settle for non-conformist and independent thinker, but let the critics do their worst. It has come to my […]
I’ve been writing about Illegal Aliens and Comprehensive Immigration ‘Reform’ from a lot of different angles. That it’s not economically sustainable, that it wreaks havoc on our culture and educational system, the crime, that immigrant ‘family values’ are in no way superior to ours, as Jeb Bush claims, and that not vigorously enforcing immigration law […]
In the battle of ideologies, the ground being fought over is the mind of the vast political middle, consisting paradoxically of mostly apolitical people. The Art of War for conservatives must account for the premise that words have meaning. Conservatives respect words, their content, their meaning, their etiology and their proper use. At one time, […]
This is not exclusively on Congressman and erstwhile Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan, but Ryan – along with Senator Marco Rubio, are the most notable examples of how elastic any politician with higher ambitions can be when they succumb to the wiles of the lobbying machinery in Washington D.C. I realize that sounds like they […]
Editor’s Note: Since we reviewed the Senate prototype of the 2013 Government Industries ‘Reformobile’, the car has been sent over to the House of Representatives and the reaction has been much the same as ours. But there are a few that think that if they tinker with this and that, they can foist this dog […]
We’re pretty familiar with the visible players in the Comprehensive Immigration Reform (Amnesty) scam. There’s the Democrat Party, Barack Obama, Labor Unions, the ‘Gang of Eight’, the usual useful idiots that pose as conservatives – Bob Barnes, Hugh Hewitt, Grover Norquist, the Cato Institute, the United States Chamber of Commerce and so forth. But there’s […]
As I listen to the prominent voices championing Comprehensive Immigration Reform, whether they be among the politicos or the opinion makers, there is a universal theme. The theme is that we owe a path to citizenship to 12 million migrants who violated our immigration laws. It’s as if amnesty is not a matter of generosity, […]
Within a few days of my post, “An Ounce of Prevention”, came the quite predictable response to the Heritage Foundation’s promotion of their policy paper on the fiscal cost of providing amnesty for 11 to 15 million migrants in this country illegally. The response from the media and advocacy group proponents of amnesty, is not […]
Politico is discussing the prospects of Barack Obama’s remaining agenda in light of the trifecta of scandals exploding around him. While the authors of the piece, Jake Sherman, Ginger Gibson and Seung Min Kim speculate that various of the items on the President’s ‘to-do list’ are to one degree or another, in jeapordy – they […]
