Sensible Values

Tuesday, April 16th, 2013

HT to Dennis Prager.  Many of us here agree implicitly with these statements: --Marriage should remain defined as the union of a man and a woman. --The human fetus should have at least as much right to life as, let us say, a dog. --America is the greatest force for good in the ...

Politically Correct Deaths

Sunday, March 17th, 2013

"When will black people get as outraged over a gang-banger killing innocent people as they do when a police officer kills an unarmed black man?"  Excellent question and article. Something that should be looked at much more.  It isn't "racism" or "evil corporations", its a sub-cultural (urban) malignancy nearly as old ...

Why ANY “war on entitlements”?

Friday, March 8th, 2013

It is very clear, politically, that the majority of the American people favor "entitlement" programs.  All philosophical arguments, pro or con, aside this must be plain to realists. The challenge is in more effective applications of the "benefits" modern Americans believe are "rights".  Benefits programs run at a giant macro Federal ...

Not True – An example of leftist faith in misinformation

Thursday, March 7th, 2013

An example of how homosexual activists have fooled well meaning people. Whether because of commitment to feel-good leftism or simple feel-good ignorance, these folks are truly fooled.   A friend posted this on a Social Network. He is a good man, well meaning, active in his community, compassionate and skilled. But much ...

Redefining Marriage? Why?

Friday, February 8th, 2013

First, spare us the "homophobe" and "intolerance" flames.  Disagreeing on issues doesn't mean people "fear" or "hate" opposing points of view. Can YOU answer the question, "Redefining Marriage?  Why?" Denying it is redefining the term is as Orwellian as the "Ministry of Peace".  What is amazing is so many, well intentioned, ...

Abortion – Wrong on so many levels

Tuesday, September 4th, 2012

Don't miss the main point. People who defend abortion place the convenience and choices or feelings of a woman above the inherent right to life. Without life, there are no rights. Examine abortion supporters' arguments and you'll find them to be of an entirely selfish basis or disregarding the unarguable ...

Wow! What a Video “Racial Ron Paul”

Monday, August 27th, 2012

This is a very good watch. Thinking people speaking truth and not what they've been fed. Share this with every reasonable person you know.

Differences between conservatives and liberals, another example

Saturday, August 4th, 2012

We aren't saying that either is "right" or the right thing to do.  But when Adults put kids up to do "cute things" we can see another difference between sane reasonable conservatives and constantly outraged and outrageous lib/prog collectivists.  One thing to consider when you vote in November is which ...

You say you want some evolution

Monday, June 25th, 2012

Social media is an outstanding gauge of people's attitudes on society culture and politics.  It often demonstrates many folks: Ignorance of issues and public policy Too many peoples' willingness to parrot snippets they've seen in media/internet Many have a willingness to say anything provocative regardless of whether its true or supportable Some peoples' gross ...
