Much of what happened to America in 2020 and will likely repeat in some form in 2021 was not just bad luck; it was self-inflicted harm. And until we join together to halt the abject stupidity that has allowed endless political nonsense, disease, race rioting, economic hardship, influence peddling, censorship, and election fraud to flourish, […]
I absolutely loved Michelle Obama’s presentation at the Democratic Party’s Infomercial Convention. When she carried on about being an oppressed black woman, I rolled in the aisle with laughter. She was speaking to me from her twelve million dollar home on Martha’s Vineyard, off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. That is one of the wealthiest places […]
Most of us are very, very tired of the constant barrage of negative news. We realize that it may have some tenuous connection to reality, but is mostly manufactured nonsense, designed to keep us upset until at least the Presidential Election in November. But will it even end then? That is unlikely, because too many […]
With the Wuhan coronavirus epidemic waning somewhat in the USA and locally here in Oregon, as people become more careful about spreading it, we are close to the point where we should talk about ‘lessons learned.’ That is the process of 20/20 hindsight, where we look back at what was done and not done that […]
When Governor Brown is talking about the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, she is likely correct, although a bit melodramatic. When she is talking about Global Warming, she has no idea about the science. NONE. Such is the credibility issue that the nation’s Democratic Governors face in addressing the virus. Although they have primary responsibility for the […]
When President Trump responded to criticism about his use of Twitter, he said “I wouldn’t be where I am today without it.” That struck me as very true. The President owes his success to his ability to speak directly and informally to the American people, without the heavy filter of the news media. Those who […]
This is one time I would like to make a bargain with Democrats. Do you suppose that they will promise to return all the BILLIONS of dollars with interest that they are proposing to steal from Oregonians with their draconian ‘Carbon Tax,’ if our climate does not improve one bit? Their scheme to drive up […]
With Time magazine naming 16 year-old Greta Thunberg as their ‘Person of the Year,’ one has to wonder what that means in a world dominated by political correctness and Leftist ideology. Greta is an autistic Swedish child who has been programmed by her parents to promote a children’s crusade against climate change. Never mind that […]
By most accounts, American colleges and universities are highly successful businesses, with students clamoring for admission and willing to pay whatever tuition, room, board, and books the school demands. That may seem like an ideal business relationship, where the customers are very happy with the products offered and the business is very happy with the […]
When I was a small boy in Sweden many years ago, the Swedes were emphatic. At movie theaters where American Westerns were being shown, signs proclaimed “Barn Förbjudna” or “Children Forbidden.” That was the first Swedish I learned. The Swedes were trying to protect me from the very mild violence in American Westerns of that […]
