Cardinal Dolan will NEVER Excommunicate His Buddy Gov. Andrew Cuomo

“Please never use the word weigh in when I come on, I’ve asked you to avoid that,” portly Cardinal Timothy Dolan, head of the archdiocese of New York, told Brian — in yesterday’s interview on Fox & Friends. For Christian pro-lifers still reeling in shock that Democrat New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed into law new rules that permit babies to be aborted up to the day of birth, Dolan is an elephant sitting on their hearts and souls.

Groundhog Day Fantasy

Groundhog Day FantasyOnly a few more shopping days ‘til Groundhog Day, folks. How time slips away, each day gone leaving every one of us one day closer to the last day of our lives. This is the corollary to the old hippie idea that, “Today is the first day of the rest of your life.” It could equally be the “last day of the rest of your life.” The point here, whichever way you choose to approach today, is that it’s an opportunity, an opportunity to do the right thing, an opportunity for greatness, and perhaps, an opportunity that may never come again.

Education failure hands leftist media victory (or does it?)

Education failure hands leftist media victory (or does it?)Who is it that accepts as fact whatever floats across the newsfeed on their social media? This question must be answered in order to see the complete picture of how this nation's liberty is slipping through our fingers, fingers that don't seem to grasp the enormity of the loss because of the blood on our hands.

The Coup in Venezuela: the Outcome of Failed a Socialist State

The Coup in Venezuela: the Outcome of Failed a Socialist State(Editor’s Note: CFP columnist Dennis Jamison, who is in Ecuador, says there are interesting American mainstream media-ignored events unfolding there: “I wrote this article to help the folks up North understand better understand what is really going on there.") Ecuador-This past Wednesday in Venezuela the head of the National Assembly, Vice President Juan Guaidó, proclaimed himself to be the new president of his nation. This sparked a serious response from many governments of the world, most taking sides with the new president, or newly “elected” one, Nicolás Maduro.

Ex-Ambassador McCallum Falls on His Sword to Save Trudeau

Ex-Ambassador McCallum Falls on His Sword to Save TrudeauJohn McCallum did not resign, he was fired by Trudeau for being caught doing Trudeau's bidding. For Trudeau and the Liberals, it is all about winning this upcoming election and turning Asian-Ontario swing ridings to the Liberals and retaining existing Asian-dominated Liberal ridings.

With the economy humming, progressivism—aka Democratic socialism—is a likely loser

DALLAS — chance at capturing the White House in 2020; your children’s Democratic Party, which is what we have today, faces a tougher fight. To win the election, Democrats will have to overcome two major obstacles: history and their lurch to the political left. They cannot change the first obstacle, and they seemingly don’t want to change the second.

American Democrats and Canadian Liberals Giving Our Countries Away

American Democrats and Canadian Liberals Giving Our Countries Away,It’s become a disturbing North American trend of which the American and Canadian masses remain blissfully unaware: governments handing the outcome of federal elections over to foreigners. In the U.S., which gets far more media attention than Canada, Democrats who have stalled Immigration Reform for four decades running, seem to have cornered President Donald J. Trump on his insistence for southern border protection.

Saved by pseudo-renewable energy?

Saved by pseudo-renewable energy?The IPCC says it's still possible to limit planetary warming to an additional 0.5 degrees C (0.9 F) "above pre-industrial levels"--but only if global CO2 emissions are halved by 2030 and zeroed out by 2050. So climate alarmists intend to carbon-tax, legislate and regulate our energy, factories, livelihoods, living standards, liberties and lives to the max. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal would eliminate and replace US fossil fuels by 2030. It's an unprecedented economic and political power grab.

DEMOCRATS STOLE, REPUBLICANS GO TO JAIL

Democrats have a notorious reputation for election fraud and facilitating thereof, cheating, skewing, and otherwise manipulating elections. They have been doing this for decades. This and an overwhelming propaganda on their behalf, and not their "popularity" among the American electorate, landed them in so many positions of power. They would hardly be relevant today if they did not resort to their lowly tricks.

Tales of Tea

Tales of Tea"We want our tea," demand Marco and Giuseppe, gondolieri, in Gilbert and Sullivan's The Gondoliers. One of the most delightful of the Savoy Operas, it was first performed in London, England in 1889. It was, however, supposedly set over a century earlier, in 1750 Venice. The tale of tea originates many millennia earlier and far to the east. Twenty million years earlier, in the area of today's Assam and southwest China, there arose and evergreen shrub or small tree, today's Camellia sinensis.

The Davosian Decades

The Davosian DecadesAs the big German daily Die Zeit reports, the Intl. Monetary Fund (IMF) thinks that global growth will slow to 3.5% this year, down from 3.7% forecast a few months ago (imf.org ). What a disaster; it ought to put a crimp on the assembled economic and political leaders' annual confustications at the World Economic Forum (WEF) secretive meeting at Davos (Switzerland) this week. As participation is by invitation only and all speeches and discussions are strictly following the Chatham House Rules and hence are not made public, who knows what the future holds--not that any meaningful summary has ever been communicated from that "skiing-fest" in the Swiss Alps.

Message to Democrats: February 15 Is Coming!

Questions Often Asked: Snow and Ice

Questions Often Asked: Snow and IceRain is a four-letter word--and so is snow. But ice is just three letters . Unless that is one slips on it. As Carl Reiner once opined, "A lot of people like snow. I find it an unnecessary freezing of water." You could, as New Zealanders do, wear socks over your shoes. Or, as The City of Toronto once urged, "Be nice--clear your ice." Ah yes, but what with?
