A Word is Sometimes Worth A Thousand Family Pictures
A parent’s words and actions—particularly those of the father—have much more impact on children than we appreciate. Everyday conversations can be life changing. The message to us as parents: Handle with thought and care, and be engaged. Elsewhere I have discussed...
Afraid of a Vote?
Is anyone else struck by how shamefully ironic it is that President Obama and the Democrats in the Senate wheedled around not even holding a vote on the Iran “deal” on the very Anniversary of the 9/11 Attack on our nation? That attack was led by Islamic terrorists,...
“Peace In Our Time”–With Lying, Deceitful Regimes?
The First of September has always interested me. It was on that day that World War II started. Last year, on the 75th Anniversary of that awful moment, I wrote a special post about it. This year I am struck by how, in Europe, World War II did not start with a...
The Coming Persecution For Our Beliefs on Marriage
Note: I apologize for the unusual length of this post. I tried to divide it into two or three parts, but I found that the key concepts work closely together and cannot be easily separated. I hope that you find the content and conclusions worth the read. We are in a...

A Better Idea For 2016: The Conservative Team That Will Win
Are you already as done with the 2016 Election Cycle as I am? Talking heads. He said-she said-he said. Attack ads. Scorched earth. All about “me”. Are we really going to spend more than a year with a large gaggle of seemingly qualified conservative leaders rearranging...
The Political Class Enlists Young Recruits with Your Money
The political class is using your tax dollars to replenish and to grow its numbers with young people who are true believers in the government’s importance. For years there have been programs to reduce a graduate’s monthly college loan payments due to income...
Daddy, Y Are We Hunting for Eggs?
Last Saturday we made our usual afternoon trip to the local Y to work out. Outside the front door was a large inflatable bunny and a sign inviting us to the Eggsplosion Egg Hunt, which we had apparently just missed. Some young children were leaving with their...
