  • No, Jimmy Carter, Jesus Probably Wouldn’t Be a Fan of Gay Marriage

    Former Democratic president and born-again Christian Jimmy Carter declared that he believes Jesus would embrace gay marriage. In support of this belief, flying in the fact of 2,000 years of scriptural and historical scholarship, Jimmy Carter cited noted theologian Jimmy Carter. Let’s take a look at some of the language Carter and host Marc Lamont Hill…

  • Obama’s ‘Deal’ with Iran – Yay, We Get Nothing!

    “Military revolutions are missed, not only because of military sloth, delusional leadership, or a reactionary romance with the past. They are also missed because of a failure at elite levels of society either to perceive real threats posed by real external enemies, or to countenance sacrifices necessary to meet them” ~ Victor D Hanson The “Deal”…

  • Hillary’s Tired, Demagogic Economic Proposals

    Hillary Clinton is a walking, talking cliche who spouts decades-old sound bites that were bad enough when her husband first delivered them but are painfully anachronistic today. Same old material, same old demagoguery. You would think a self-styled “progressive” would be less regressive and reactionary, but this woman apparently believes that the Clinton magic of…

  • [VIDEO] Is Capitalism Diabolic?

    On arrival in La Paz, Pope Francis was presented by Bolivian President Evo Morales with a wooden crucifix carved in the form of a hammer and sickle, the symbol of Lenin, Stalin, Mao and Fidel. Had Pope John Paul II been handed that crucifix, he might have cracked it over Evo’s head. For John Paul…

  • The Future of Policing in the USA?

    American police have, since I can remember, taken great pride in providing immediate help to people who really needed them. We call it “proactive policing.” We respond quickly to calls for help. We aggressively patrol and make arrests, getting VCA (violent criminal actors), drunk drivers, and child-molesters locked-up where they can’t hurt anyone. We lock…

  • A Legacy of Cliches

    Discussions of racial problems almost invariably bring out the cliche of “a legacy of slavery.” But anyone who is being serious, as distinguished from being political, would surely want to know if whatever he is talking about — whether fatherless children, crime or whatever — is in fact a legacy of slavery or of some…

    Who Is The Latest Hollywood Elite To Support Trump?

    Despite the liberal naysayers and haters, he’s surging in the polls and gaining more and more support from other public figures. Ted Cruz is the only 2016 GOP candidate who hasn’t thrown Trump under the buss for speaking out against illegals and Obama’s immigration policy. Ted Nugent has told the haters to kiss-off, and Kid…

  • The Coming Era of Civil Disobedience

    The Oklahoma Supreme Court, in a 7-2 decision, has ordered a monument of the Ten Commandments removed from the Capitol. Calling the Commandments “religious in nature and an integral part of the Jewish and Christian faiths,” the court said the monument must go. Gov. Mary Fallin has refused. And Oklahoma lawmakers instead have filed legislation…

  • “A Republic, If You Can Keep It.” Can We? Will We?

    When Benjamin Franklin emerged from Independence Hall at the close of the Constitutional Convention, a lady asked him what kind of government had been formed. Franklin reportedly responded, “A republic, if you can keep it.” Franklin’s answer has always been interesting because it revealed that he well understood the profound difference between a pure democracy…

  • It’s Not Guns: It’s Big Pharma

    On January 22, 2013, I wrote the following Daily Rant. It was titled “Weapons of Choice.” I repost it today and ask you — what has changed? Doctors and government continue to poison our young people and children and when they react to the side effects of their psychotropic drugs they go to gun-free zones…

  • [VIDEO] Donald Trump Punished For Telling The Truth

    I was raised to believe that you always told the truth, even when it wasn’t popular.  In fact I was taught to tell the truth especially when it wasn’t popular.  But the rats at NBC would rather kiss the rings of Obama and Sharpton who are both pernicious liars, and banish Trump.  NBC should sanction…

  • On the Road to Serfdom

    Mention slavery to any American and visions of captured Africans shackled in chains and suffering every kind of abuse known to man comes to mind. While this form of slavery is the most severe, there are other forms and degrees by which one might be condemned to bondage. In western Europe slavery was eventually replaced…

  • Larry Flynt’s Endorsement Of Hillary Clinton: No Laughing Matter for Gun Owners

    So declared Larry Flynt, founder of the Hustler magazine empire that has made millions photographing nude women. Flynt proffered his enthusiastic endorsement in an interview with Bloomberg. Flynt’s endorsement of Mrs. Clinton, a feminist icon, is ripe for ridicule and taking shots at the Clintons, of whom Flynt has long been a big supporter. It…

  • Is This The Real Homosexual End Game?

    The old bromide “There are none so blind as those who will not see” is actually a misstating of the scripture verse Jeremiah 5:21: “Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding, who have eyes, and see not, who have ears, and hear not.” I make this point because there are those who A)…

  • Slaves Had More Dignity Than Blacks Today

    On July 4, 2014, I was a guest speaker at the Racial Reconciliation and Healing event hosted by Rev. James David Manning of ATLAH Ministries held at Gettysburg Battlefield, in Gettysburg, PA. In the course of my speech, which I gave from the same place President Abraham Lincoln gave his Gettysburg Address, I quoted Booker…

  • Barack Obama and the Grace of God

    President Barack Obama’s remarkable eulogy for Clementa Pinckney, the pastor of the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, one of the nine victims of the recent tragic shooting there, has again called attention to the president’s often misunderstood faith. Obama’s singing of the venerated Christian hymn “Amazing Grace” and focus on the theme of…

  • Is Your Church Protecting / Encouraging Illegal Immigrants?

    The random, heartless murder of a young tourist on San Francisco’s Pier 14 by a five-time illegal alien deportee who benefited from the “progressive” city’s sanctuary policy has law-abiding Americans, law enforcement officials and political opportunists of all stripes up in arms. But for decades, feckless government leaders ignored the pleas of families who suffered…
