Any follower or disciple of the great philosopher and Apologetic L. Marvin Moorehead, who practiced his craft like a mid-20th century Socrates in classrooms and on football fields in Central Ohio, has forever “imprinted on their brains” the words “ALIBIS DESTROY CHARACTER”. 2000 years earlier the greatest of all teachers and The Son of God […]

A Time for Prayer
This may be my last post at the Gem State Patriot before the November Presidential Election. I have attempted to present reasons for voting for President Trump based on political philosophy and Biblical and Natural Law Principles, but today I want to present a very practical and very real reason for supporting DJT—MILITARY READINESS is […]
We Have Not Yet Begun to Fight!
I am writing this post on the morning after the Donald Trump/Tucker Carlson town hall meeting in Arizona four days before the presidential election. The presentation by the speakers was exquisite. For me, the best speaker was RFK Jr. He has an obvious speech impediment and speaks with a graveling forced expiratory effort, but his […]
Who Are the Real Fascists?
What is “gaslighting”? It is simply not telling the truth. We must however understand that the media and political elites who substitute a political narrative for facts that set the premise for any argument, must first not tell the truth. Their story of policy and philosophy has been a dismal failure. We must first understand […]
I opined over a year ago that we need a new GREAT AWAKENING. As this election season draws to an end, I believe this is truer than ever before. We all know in our hearts that there is something wrong with the world, but there has always been something wrong with the world. There are […]
Time to Act Forward
The issue of RACE that has come up increasingly in our politics this election year is intimately connected to the issue of what has been called our “great American sin”. Slavery, however, in all its various forms, is as old as history itself. In experiencing this great crime against humanity America is not unique. From […]
Watchstanders Wanted
We are three weeks away from the Presidential election. Questioning election integrity has been a tradition in our country since at least the 1800 Election when Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr defeated John Adams—the incumbent. Prior to the adaption of The 12th Amendment, the person receiving the most votes for President became President and the […]
Informed by Faith
As political campaigns evolve and mature, as the factions become hardened and the number of people who will determine the election becomes a smaller fraction of the electorate—who could possibly be in the middle or undecided at this point in time in our country(?)—the words of my mother who ran many political Statewide election campaigns […]
Taxation Without Representation
When I decided to write my two articles about taxes and local government I wondered if there would be any interest in the subject. I have received more e-mails and comments personally and on the phone from more people—including local legislators and politicians, than I have for any of my previous articles. It seems Idaho […]
The Truth About Abortion
During last week’s Vice-Presidential Debate, Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota continually misrepresented the conservative position regarding abortion. Context is absolutely critical in this discussion so let us first understand that there are emergency indications for a therapeutic D&C and possibly other operative interventions. Nobody disagrees about these indications. Most commonly the list includes an ectopic […]
EARTH GETS ITS PRICE FROM WHAT EARTH GIVES US….’ Kamala Harris said something at the beginning of her campaign for President that has been said a thousand times by those on the progressive liberal left over the past 60 years. She said that we were all born on different rungs of the ladder and those […]
The upcoming General Election including the Presidential and Congressional Elections are not just about personalities and policies. It is more about the process of governance as we pass the political torch onto the next generations. Republicans of all stripes have shown an allegiance to our Constitution, to our Courts—no matter how much they have been […]
