America Rising

After the greatest upset in American History we have stepped from the precipice of the abyss and now stand upon the threshold of renewal. America’s setting sun is rising again.

Trump Vote is a Vote for Hope

Marching out of Yorktown to surrender the British Army played the song "The World Turned Upside Down." As I drive to Meg Lo Mart to make my latest deposit of monopoly money in a Chinese savings account, all I can do is mumble the final tag-line of the Wicked Witch of the West, "What a world. What a world."

Trump Triumph to Dream the Impossible Dream

According to Albert Einstein, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." If We the People want to restore the Republic we will have to rise above the shop worn politics presented by the two-headed party of power and as described by the Corporations Once Known as the Mainstream Media.

Trump or Clinton Life or Death

There will be no end to History until there is an end to events. Current events are the History of the future. However History can be lost. People can ignore their past, live only in the now, and leave their future to chance. History provides the opportunity to learn from the mistakes of others as well as the chance to build upon what others have learned. To ignore these two paths to success gives life to the notion that failure to plan is planning to fail.

It Is What It Is

As the weeks go by the wheels are coming off FBI Director Comey's whitewash of Hillary. He gave a laundry list of her criminality ending in "our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case." Here's the list that ended in no indictment, which included several previously undisclosed findings from the F.B.I.'s investigation:

Useful Idiots and the Theater of the Absurd

Recently I had the opportunity to spend some time with a person who would easily qualify as one of Lenin’s useful idiots. Here is a man who grabbed the brass ring. Not by government intervention. Not by being one of the bigtime crony capitalists who rig the system that chooses winners and losers. No, he had achieved success and fortune through his own ingenuity and hard work. And for this I have always respected and commended him.

Obama Boom Builds Obamatowns

According to the megaphones of the Progressive-controlled media, the Obama economy is booming. For the investor class it has been a rising tide that lifts all yachts or as it is expressed in Bloomberg, "When President Barack Obama was elected in November 2008, the U.S. economy was shrinking at a rate unmatched since World War II. In the seven years between then and his final State of the Union address Tuesday night, global investors have enjoyed stellar results from the rapidly expanding Obama economy."

Without Life There Can Be No Liberty or Happiness

The document that gave birth to the United States also declared that life is the first of all rights, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness."

Why Should Obama Declare Martial Law

If you turn on, tune in, browse or otherwise peruse the alternative media you will undoubtedly come across the question, "Will President Obama declare Martial Law?" or one of its many variants: "Can President Obama use martial law to stay in the White House?"

A Parallel Universe Without Progressives

An astrophysicist, Ranga-Ram Chary at the European Space Agency's Planck Space Telescope data center at CalTech says he may have found evidence of alternate or parallel universes by looking back in time to just after the Big Bang more than thirteen billion years ago.

The Great Disconnect

Chaos is the mother of tyranny. Chaos reigns when people operate in confusion and disorder. It is a state in which behavior and events are not controlled by reason. Today we are faced with a government and an elite controlled media that lie to the people and then lie about lying. They operate as if the country is theirs to run and ruin for their own personal enrichment.

American Pravda and New York's Sixth Crime Family

In America today most people choose only the Corporations Once Known as the Mainstream Media based on the charisma of the news reader, and do not tune into other news options. Do they think they look or sound authoritative? Are they better looking? Do they have a more pleasing voice? Are they a Male? Are they a Female? Are they Gay? Are we not sure? Whatever the reason, it isn't because they say anything different. It often sounds like they all have the same writers and story selectors. The content is no different. It is perhaps the line-up of the stories and that is about it.

History is The Story of Life

The older we get the more of our lives become History. Perhaps that is why it slowly eventually becomes interesting to many people; we can remember so much more of it.  The future slides into the present. The present slides into the past. Our lives are the history of the future.

The Solutions to Our Broken Institutions Are In the Constitution

America is facing a crisis. As a matter of fact we are in such a constant state of crisis that I should be using the plural crises but that sounds silly and looks improbable. As do the policies which have pushed us to this point.

America First!

I was raised by people who believed in "My country right or wrong." I was taught that America never started a war and never lost a war. Reading Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, an honest appraisal of the War of 1812 disabused me of those two notions. While the jingoist attitude of blind acceptance and unreflective loyalty and unquestioning support for a sacred homeland are not descriptive of my life, I am devoted to the enlightenment ideas enshrined in the Constitution.

The Back Alley Becomes Main Street

Abortion mills are not required to meet health standards as high as veterinary clinics yet when Texas passes a law requiring them to meet minimum standards for any health establishment the Supreme Corruption rules this is too much.

Down the Memory Hole

How can we possibly know the motive of the perpetrator of the Orlando Massacre? It is a mystery to the President, the Attorney General, his whole administration, and their cheerleaders in the Corporations Once Known as the Mainstream Media. Forget that the killer called 911 and pledged allegiance to ISIS. This has been redacted from the government transcripts so it has been effectively dropped down the Memory Hole.

Avast There's an Iceberg Ahead!

One of America's greatest philosophers once quipped, "A nickel isn't worth a dime today" and the inverse logic of that still holds true.

Trump Tames Billary

Back in the days of the peace dividend, "Read my lips," and "It's the economy stupid" we were told we got two for the price of one. And we sure did. One president to chase skirts in the Oval Office and one harridan to persecute his victims: Billary, the corrupt couple from Whitewater.

Trump Earthquake Causes Democrat Tsunami

It is not often that we get to witness a true phenomenon. The Reagan Revolution was exciting but it was not a phenomenon. It was a carefully planned, long fought, and hard-won battle between the Conservative wing and the Progressive wing of the Republican Party.
