“When an opponent declares ‘I will not come over to your side,’ I calmly say, ‘Your child belongs to us already…. What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.’” (Adolph Hitler, November 6, 1933.) […]
As a counterpoint to Edmund Burke and George Santayana, let me start with an admonition: Those destined to repeat history are first doomed to forget it. A while back I wrote an article warning of the insidious dangers of state propaganda, especially when augmented by the grinding mediocrities of a government school system, the steady […]
As the Neo-fascist government of Vladimir Putin amasses troops and armor along the Ukrainian border, his propaganda machine churns out a contradictory narrative that most in America would find risible. From the Moscow Times, quoting Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov: “We simply don’t have the right to exclude that the Kiev regime may embark on […]
Democrats inflate the Federal labor force almost as reliably as they inflate our money supply. In effect, they print new job positions the same way they print new dollars, with total disregard for their declining value. Whether more government workers are actually needed or not has no bearing on this process, because each new Federal […]
As many have noted, our God given rights are now steadily being suppressed in the name of a very old delusion with the new and catchy name of “Equity.” Free speech was perhaps first on the chopping block, and it continues to be hacked away. A few days ago Ocasio Cortez and her “Squad” announced […]
In a rather heated recent blogger exchange, one correspondent observed that the legitimacy of our November election was so obvious that those claiming the vote counting was fraudulent or otherwise illegitimate should be legally silenced. In reply I asked which faction he would advise a newly arrived observer from Mars to believe. Should the Martian […]
After all the bitter recriminations that have been fired at Donald Trump (and fallen far short of the mark), it puzzles me that no one has written an expose on the conspicuously criminal network of Hunter Biden associates. They are legion, so let’s take a look. But first let’s consider the evidence from Hunter Biden’s […]
A curious thought experiment has just occurred to me. Bear in mind that this is only a first draft. I am merely thinking out loud, so to speak, and so I am counting on you to catch me in any flawed reasoning or rash conclusions of which I might be guilty. If police in America […]
The Governor of Illinois has released a video in which one of his spokespersons explains what constitutes a “Covid death.” That explanation was so stunning I made a transcript of it. I just want to be clear in terms of the definition of people dying of Covid, so, the case definition is very simplistic (her […]
This morning I received the following note from a childhood friend who experienced some hellacious ground combat in Vietnam. Upon returning home from the Vietnam War, I had this feeling. It was a feeling that I could not put my finger on. It finally came to me. It was Love. It was Love of Country […]
