Over the past several weeks my lovely wife Lynn has decided to “streamline” my library. I love my books—every one of them. I have well over a thousand books and at the end of the exercise we removed a total of seven books from the inventory. One, a book written by Douglas South Hall Freeman […]
The discussions around family Thanksgiving Dinners across our country will I am sure be vigorous and I hope fun. I hope that in my family all will be courteous and not contentious—but I doubt that can happen. Sometimes contentious debate can be great fun. We will be having Thanksgiving dinner in Seattle with my son […]
The cries of fascism, racism, sexism, and isim-ism, continue to be bantered about by info babes and gals and those in the written media even two weeks after the election. Unfortunately, a withered worn-out endomorph in Hollywood has published a “screed” on his web page that can only be produced by a heart infected by […]
Growing up I looked forward to receiving two magazines in the mail every month. Sports Illustrated (SI)—especially in January with the Swim Suit Issue, and Scientific American. I stopped subscribing to (SI) in 1992 because of the incredible slanted articles they wrote regarding issues that today would be considered “social justice” centric. The same thing […]
Today has been a great day. First Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are given portfolio and title to lead the new Department of Government Efficiency. CNN certainly has a different take on what is about to happen than the new directors themselves: https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/12/politics/elon-musk-vivek-ramaswamy-department-of-government-efficiency-trump/index.html https://nypost.com/2023/11/13/news/vivek-ramaswamy-vows-to-fire-federal-workers-based-on-social-security-numbers-nothing-will-break Classical business governance dogma—I must admit that it has over the […]
For the past four years several times a day I have prayed that we have another GREAT AWAKENING IN OUR COUNTRY. WE have had several such religious revivals. Faith, has always informed our political philosophy and politics in our country, starting with the words of our GREAT DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.—’WE are endowed by our Creator […]
Lynn and I are Westerners. Lynn was born in Caldwell, spent most of her childhood years in Havre Montana, and raised her family in Eagle Idaho. I was born in Minot North Dakota, followed our military family in several States and then I was raised through high school in Ohio. For the last 36 years […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
