Libertarians!

About certain moral (and legal) matters, patriotic, freedom-loving Americans agree instinctively. For example: When brave, border patrolmen Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean shot an illegal alien drug dealer in the derriere, they were defending their state, country and countrymen. For hastening the ...

Big Man Obama and His Diversity Princess

First there was "€œThe Decider."€ Then came Big Man Obama. "€œThe Decider"€ is the nickname George Bush gave his all-powerful self. To go by the dictionary, and "€œwithin the context of political science, big man, big man syndrome, or bigmanism refers to corrupt and autocratic rule of ...

10th Division

States across the country are rediscovering and reasserting the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Own It

I like FOX-News broadcaster Glenn Beck. The man exudes goodness and has a visceral feel for freedom.  From this scrupulous soul I"€™d like to hear less about "€œlife, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,"€ and more of the original Lockean phrase, from which Thomas Jefferson drew when ...

Gangsta Gifts

"€œHip"€ is how rapt reporters referred to the iPod the president and first lady gave the Queen of England. Thanks to his fawning friends in the British and American media, Barack Obama got away with giving another foreign dignitary a vulgar gift. Shades of the reality show "€œCribs"€... ...

How I Became a Domestic Terrorist

A secret Missouri State police report, “entitled "€˜The Modern Militia Movement,"€™ and dated February 20, 2009,” is warning about subversives like ... me. Apparently, this scribe has the makings of a militia member, and then some.  One of the incriminating telltale signs the ...
