It seems pretty obvious to me that the Biden campaign and the deep-deep state have nothing of a policy nature upon which to run. What have they done in the past three years that has been successful? Inflation, immigration, the politicization of our legal system, a military under assault from the bureaucratic “woke” estate at […]
Great men and women as they mature and rise to positions of leadership within their families, their businesses, in the professional world and hopefully in government, develop systems within their minds and souls that help them make difficult decisions. I am talking of course about serious-minded people. Our Founding Fathers were serious people. Early on […]
Idaho’s conservative Republicans have had a great couple of weeks. Dorothy Moon being reelected by 62% of the Delegate vote at the State Convention in Coeur d ‘Alene jml was a bigger margin than she got last time around. Russ Fulcher is making a name for himself in Washington DC and in Idaho. Raul Labrador […]
I was asked last week to present my thoughts about a group of former military service members who came out against Donald Trump because of some disparaging remarks he made about military service in Viet Nam 50 years ago. The point of my words was that what is most important is not what a bunch […]
Happy Father’s Day to all fathers I started writing 12 years ago because I wanted to document for my children the reasons for my religious and political beliefs. More importantly, the predicates upon which those beliefs are grounded are very important. In today’s world even Christian conservatives pull back a little when talking or writing […]
I watched the TV pundits on several channels—some gleefully celebrating, discuss the Trump jury verdict in real time. For me there was nothing surprising in either the verdicts or the demeanor and professionalism of many reporting the news. Both conservative and progressive legal commentary provided evidence that their side was correct. Johnathan Turley or Rachel […]
There seems to be lot of hateful words and language coming from the political progressive left lately. People supporting Hamas and Hezbollah are using words like fascist and racist when they address those who oppose their false allegations of Jewish-Israeli Apartheid. Their understanding of ancient and modern history is a result of a generation not […]
Pyrrhus was a Greek King and General of the Hellenistic period. He was one of the strongest opponents of ancient Rome and ranked with Alexander The Great and Hannibal as a Great Leader and General. He fought a series of three great battles against the mighty Roman Legions from 289-275 B. C. and defeated Rome […]
Last night at The Garden City Council meeting I watched with amazement a process I have also watched several times at the Idaho Legislature last month. Again, I have the utmost respect for people that give of their time and talents to serve their constituent’s and the citizens that they represent. They almost all come […]
Did it ever occur to anyone that all the out of State money going into the Defend and Protect Idaho PAC, The Governor’s PAC, and the Idaho Freedom PAC may be coming from the same places in many cases? What better way to help the Idaho GOP implode than to up fund both sides of […]
I received an e-mail last week that used the term “deepity” that refers to statements that seem profound at first glance, but upon deeper examination, they are only marginally true. Apparently, the word was first used by Professor Daniel Dennett at a conference of atheists and progressive humanists in 2009. Many atheists have subsequently maintained […]
Social change doesn’t happen gradually. It happens in fits and bursts. In retrospect, the line between the old values and the “new way” can be seen very clearly, but when we are in the middle of such a change, we oftentimes don’t know it. I believe we are today at a crossroads and in the […]
