July 4th - Dissent, criticism, pride, guns and freedom
As I write this it it July 03, 2008. This post is not a long, coherent essay but rather the expression of a number of thoughts that have been swirling for a few weeks… brought to a point by a piece of writing by Chris Satullo over at the Philadelphia Inquirer. Understand me clearly… I [...]

That Crazy Jewish Lobby Problem…
It is no secret that the far left (like the far right) is the nesting place of a whole range of crazies. The difference is that the DNC has been on the outside looking in for so long in many ways that they have become more deeply infested with their parasites than the Republicans have [...]

On the flimsiest evidence possible (evidence that now seems to have been fraudulent) the CPS (child protective services) juggernaut in Texas raided the “Yearning for Zion” ranch and kidnapped about 450 children. I know the term kidnapped is inflammatory, but frankly there [...]
