Misandry

There is a lot of HATE being spewed in the post-election commentary by the likes of Joey Behar, Rachel Maddow, and Joy (no irony in her first name there) Reid.

The Social Contract

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 […]

Trump Flashback

I wrote this in December of 2015, nearly a year before Trump was elected the first time. How did it age? He is bold, brash, bombastic and has an ego that will barely fit in the marble plated atrium of a New York City skyscraper. He is a self-made billionaire who flies his private 757 […]

Our Constitutionally guaranteed republican form of government relies on free, fair, and honest elections to select our representatives and leaders.
