Death of sportscaster ‘King of Fight’ Eddie Zawadzki

It is with a heavy heart that I write tonight that sportscaster, ‘King of Fight’ Eddie Zawadzki is gone. Eddie’s sister, Christine called to tell Canada Free Press (CFP) that Eddie died this morning of a massive heart attack, age 55.

Fruits and Vegetables in a State

It's common knowledge that each of the United States has both an official flower and an official tree to represent their state. But a few have gone further and also voted a specific fruit and vegetable for the honour.

The Apples of Iðunn

The aphorism, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" was coined in 1913 but similar advice first appeared in print in 1866, both based on a proverb from Pembrokeshire, Wales "Eat an apple on going to bed and you'll keep the doctor from earning his bread." But the Norse got there first.

The Truth About Jew-Hatred is Never Slander

It ought to be axiomatic that if you join a group marinated in anti-Semitism and devoted to the destruction of the Jewish State of Israel you are likely at some point to be identified as a hater of Jews.

Cindy Sheehan: ‘I almost feel sorry for Bush’ and ‘Hillary’s record has been sanitized’

If you were paying attention during the Bush years, you'll no doubt remember Cindy Sheehan. After losing her son in Iraq, she became the left's anti-war focal point. Almost overnight, she found herself a staple of the 24-hour news nets and a regular Sunday morning guest. She camped out in front of Bush's home, marched, spoke wherever possible, and never missed an opportunity to decry "Bush's imperial war for oil."

Commies endorse Hillary, Commies HACK HILLARY, Obama hands election control to Homeland Security

Even after almost eight long years in office, the Obama administration has failed to learn that you can't blow and whistle at the same time. Obama intel organizations like the FBI speculate that the Big Bad Russian Bear is the perp that should be blamed for hacking into both the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign.

Collusion: Media that gave money to corrupt Clinton Foundation are protecting it

Media organizations that have donated money to Hillary Clinton's corrupt foundation are leading the way in the effort to cover up Clinton's almost innumerable misdeeds. As Liz Crokin of the New York Observer reports:

Hillary’s unpopularity now as high as Trump’s among registered voters

Maybe more than that, because chances are some of the 59 percent of registered voters who have an unfavorable view of Hillary will vote for her anyway, if only because they've bought the nonsense that Trump is a racist, a robber baron or whatever else he's supposed to be.

The Weakening of Wilayat Sinai

Wilayat Sinai, an organization identified with the Islamic State, has recently suffered a series of serious blows from the Egyptian army. Most prominent among them was the air strike in early August 2016 that killed dozens of senior commanders, launched as part of a targeted campaign against terrorism in Egypt in general, and in Sinai in particular.

Colin Kaepernick has sparked a national discussion

See my interview yesterday with Mike Pence

I have so enjoyed spending time these past few days with Indiana Gov. Mike Pence.

Well well . . . State Dept. admits 30 of the e-mails Hillary deleted were about Benghazi

Remember Hillary's excuse for why she went ahead and deleted more than 30,000 e-mails from her schlock, homebrew e-mail server? Why, they weren't work-related! They were about yoga routines, recipes and Chelsea's wedding. That's what she said.

Neither Key nor National Anthem are racist

Back when the TV channels would sign off at midnight or later, they would always play the National Anthem, followed by a test pattern. While I remember it mostly being an instrumental version played by a marching band or an orchestra, a two-verse version with a woman singing it accompanied by an acoustic guitar was also popular.

PAXTON’S GREENHOUSE, PLANTER FIRE HAZARDS

Joseph Paxton's 3 August 186^th birthday falls on 3 August 2016. If you've eaten a banana or walked in, perhaps even owned a greenhouse you have him to thank. "The busiest man in England" was to Queen Victoria "a common gardener's boy" -- but knighted him anyway in 1851 for designing the Great Exhibition's famed Crystal Place featuring Paxton's modular glass-and-iron design.

New England in Need of More Natural Gas Pipeline Capacity

Many New Englanders would like to convert their home heating systems to natural gas, but are not allowed because there is insufficient pipeline capacity to get the natural gas to their homes. Not only does the residential market want natural gas for home heating but so do the industrial and electric utility markets. Low cost natural gas is in demand and has been replacing coal and nuclear power in electricity markets in New England, which is now over 50 percent dependent on natural gas.

United We Stand, Divided We Fall!

That phrase has been attributed to that fabled Greek story teller, Aesop, and by a passage in the bible (Mark 3:25) which stated, “And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand”. As a Republican, I think that phrase has enormous meaning, especially in the upcoming presidential election.

Yes, the targeting of Target is working BUT…

The boycott of Target stores led by those outraged that the retail chain encourages men who "identify" as women to use women's restrooms is working -- but victory is not yet complete.

Illegal Alien Driver Massacre in Louisiana

Kristen Welker informed viewers of the NBC Nightly News that an "undocumented worker" was at fault in a terrible bus crash in Louisiana on August 28 that killed two people and injured 41 others. It is typical of the media to use that phrase when referring to illegal aliens. It is how the media try to condition people to accept their presence in the United States.

Obama is calling for Muslims to go to the head of the line

Losing the Internet one month before election

We should take seriously all the bombs Barack Hussein Obama plans to toss in our path on his way out of the door. Most know that his coming departure is only a temporary one, given that Hillary Clinton is poised to be Obama’s third term in office.
