Full Disclosure – The Consequences of Continuing to Support Ted Cruz for President
on Monday, January 11, 2016
Many conservatives are breathing a welcome sigh of relief because we think we have stopped Jeb Bush from getting the Republican nomination for President in 2016. Well guess again…

on Saturday, January 9, 2016
Is Ted Cruz is the Republican Party’s answer to Barack Obama? I hope not. They are both ineligible to be President and two wrongs don’t make a right. One is President and the other wants to be President, but wanting to be and going to be are two different things and it doesn’t depend on what the definition of is…is. It depends on a proper understanding of what it means to be a Natural Born American Citizen according to Article 2 Section 1 of the United States Constitution…

on Tuesday, January 5, 2016
Normally peaceful Malheur National Wildlife Refuge near Burns Oregon became the scene of a heated standoff between ranchers and property rights advocates on the one hand and federal law enforcement officials and the Bureau of Land Management on the other hand. At the center of this conflict is a seventy-three year old Oregon Rancher named Dwight Hammond and his forty-six year old son Steven who were recently resentenced to serve five more years in a Federal Penitentiary on trumped up charges of arson…

on Saturday, December 26, 2015
Forget about what you have been told. Islam is not a peaceful religion as its apologists would have you believe. In fact with few notable exceptions the Muslim world has never known prolonged periods of peace. Whenever Arabs are in control of the Uma there is usually war. There are supposed to be five pillars of Islam, but in reality there are only two, the sword and the Quran…

on Tuesday, December 15, 2015
He says all the right things the junior Senator from Texas does, but he wasn’t born in the United States. He was born in Alberta, Canada. The Constitution says that you have to be born in the United States to be the President of the United States. It’s only common sense isn’t it?

Why does Bernie Sanders’ campaign appeal to hard core leftists? The world isn’t a fair place. That’s obvious, but can government eradicate poverty? Well Bernie Sanders thinks it can and apparently he thinks it should, and all of the people who support him in 2016 apparently think he will once he is elected President.

on Thursday, November 12, 2015
To tune in or to tune out… that is the sixty four thousand dollar question. Actually it is the $500,000 dollar question. Five hundred thousand dollars per minute is about what it cost to advertise during the Republican Presidential Debates. How many of these prime time debates will Americans watch before we decide who to vote for in 2016?… and just how many of these gala media events will it take before we get so sick of politics that we start to tune out and turn off our television sets?

on Thursday, October 29, 2015
The third Republican debate was supposed to be about policy…. economic policy to be specific. That was the theme selected by the Republican National Committee to try to make Jeb Bush look good and the questions were intended to showcase the professional politicians in the race seeking the Republican Presidential nomination at the expense of the non-politicians.. The plan was to knock out the front runners in the race…. Donald Trump and Ben Carson who enjoy an overwhelming lead in all the polls over the professional politicians in the race…

We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the determined members of the House Republican Freedom Caucus who actually still know how to fight for principles.

I was trying to figure out just what those four other people were actually doing on the stage next to Hillary Clinton in Las Vegas. None of them has the slightest chance of actually winning the Democratic Party’s nomination for President. Lincoln Chafee, Martin O’Malley, Jim Webb and Bernie Sanders have no more chance of winning the Democratic Party’s nomination for President than Donald Duck so what are they really doing there?

Are the vast waves of Muslims leaving the Middle East just refugees that we should feel sorry for or are they really an invading army of future jihadists that we should be wary of? Will Europe remain Europe or is it already starting to look a lot more like Eurabia? What about the United States of America? Are we going to be next?

on Sunday, September 13, 2015
Out of the depths of despair a nation was born. From under the yoke of a despot’s tyranny the sounds of freedom began to ring in the ears of a few good men. There weren’t many at first who heard this sound, but then it began to resonate throughout the land until a people of no little consequence became united in a common cause… and bound by a shared destiny. Through their innumerable trials and tribulations they became convinced that their destiny was to be free, Soon a consensus emerged that something had to be done to facilitate that goal. What they decided to do next was something that none of them had ever done before…

listen to the news broadcasts these days with a increasing amount of skepticism and cynicism and rightly so. Regrettably there isn’t one major mainstream media news source in America that isn’t pushing their progressive agenda on the American public. From ABC to FOX News to NPR each and every major network is guilty of doing the exact same thing, and all of America’s major newspapers are doing it too. They are all guilty of violating their own professional standards of journalism and betraying the public trust in order to advance their globalist progressive agenda…

on Saturday, August 8, 2015
The first Republican Presidential debate was all about one man… Donald Trump. He is a self-made billionaire from New York who is riding very high in the polls. The reason he is riding so high in the polls is not because he is so amiable or because he is so smart. It is because he is telling Americans the truth and whether we like to hear it or not… we know it is true, but just how Mr. Trump tells us the truth could use a little work though…

Is the United States Senate under Barack Obama becoming like the Roman Senate under Julius Caesar? It looks like an official rubber stamp for the dictator’s executive orders… President Obama uses a pen and a phone and he signs executive orders as frequently as I write checks. He recently signed an executive order not to deport illegal aliens unless they have been convicted of another crime… Now President Obama is going to sign an executive agreement with a hostile government in Iran which endangers the security of the entire Middle East and threatens our safety right here at home in America while promising to start a nuclear arms race in the world that has no end in sight.…

on Thursday, March 26, 2015The junior Senator from Texas, Ted Cruz has just declared his intention to run for the Republican Presidential nomination in 2016. I think it is a bad idea and I want to be one of the first to say why. In a word his candidacy will be divisive. It is going to split the conservative vote over the question of his natural born citizenship and it will allow Jeb Bush to win the nomination. If I lived in Texas I would have voted for Ted Cruz in his successful campaign to become a United States Senator. I would vote for him a thousand times for Senator but I will not vote for him once in his bid to be the next President of the United States. Here’s why…

More Israelis actually voted for Benjamin Netanyahu this time than voted for him the last time he ran. Unfortunately you can’t say the same thing for Barack Obama, but apparently that little fact was lost on our arrogant President. Bibi will be around a long time after Barry is gone and thank God for that…

on Saturday, February 28, 2015
Just two weeks ago the price of a barrel of crude oil was under fifty dollars and the cost of a gallon of gasoline had dropped to less than two dollars. It took only a few months for the price of gasoline to fall from over four dollars a gallon to just under two dollars a gallon all across America. Now in a matter of only two short weeks the price of gasoline has risen back up to almost three dollars a gallon again. What could possibly account for this wild fluctuation in the price of oil and gas and why is the market so volatile right now?…

Will our strategic alliance with the Saudis have to be ended before a real Islamic reformation can be advanced? Some say that the late King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia was a “reformer” but the truth is that the Saudi royal family and the Kaaba are actually standing in the way of real Islamic reform…

It is a Muslim tradition to pray facing the east in the direction of the two most holy cities of Islam… Mecca and Medina.

on Monday, October 6, 2014
Is America becoming the world’s biggest bully? Can the United States just simply bomb other countries into becoming democracies? That’s what we have been trying to do in the Middle East in Iraq and Afghanistan for the past thirteen years. For over a decade we have been trying to bomb the Middle East into democracy, but it hasn’t worked out very well. It didn’t work too well in Libya and it certainly didn’t work out very well in Iraq. Hopefully Afghanistan will turn out to be another story, but now we are starting to bomb Syria and Iraq all over again. It is Shock and Awe revisited. My only question is this… Are we really convincing Muslims in the Middle East and around the world to love democracy or to hate the democracy that enables us to do this to them?

There are winners and losers in every human endeavor whether it is for the prize of a young girl’s affections in a friendly contest over matters of the heart or it is the for a prized seat in Congress in a hard fought political campaign. Whether it is for control of a small territory like Gaza or control of an entire country like Iraq or Syria, or for that matter Egypt, Libya, and Ukraine there are always winners and losers in life… but not to a liberal.

Money is always the principal driving factor behind everything that gets done… every vote that is taken, every law that gets passed, every program that gets implemented, and every politician that gets elected.

on Wednesday, March 19, 2014
It all started with a little lie, but that was so long ago that it really doesn’t matter… or does it? What matters of course in Ukraine today is that the residents of Crimea just held a public referendum on the question of whether or not they want to become a part of Russia again after a popular uprising in Kiev overthrew their democratically elected government and left most Crimeans feeling like they were out in the cold. What is the connection between the popular Orange Revolution in Ukraine and the fracking revolution right here in America? Well the result of the referendum in Crimea was that about ninety five percent of the people who cast their ballots in the hastily called special election said that they want Crimea to become a part of Russia again. Of course that doesn’t seem to matter to the people of Ukraine, nor to the European Union, nor to the United States of America which only wants to capitalize on the political turmoil and seize the opportunity to export American natural gas derived from fracking to Europe in order to increase demand and drive up prices here at home…

on Sunday, February 2, 2014
The McKenzie River is already one of Oregon’s cleanest and most protected rivers. Certain parts of it are designated as a “Wild and Scenic River” by the United States government and they receive the strictest Federal protections. The McKenzie River is well known to fly fishermen and drift boat enthusiasts alike. People from all over the world come to Oregon to fish in its clean waters and ride its lovely rapids, but wait… The rapids aren’t the only thing that are raging. The battle for control of the river is raging again too. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality says they recently measured trace amounts of mercury in two species of migratory fish that were caught in Springfield near the mouth of the McKenzie River where it joins the Willamette River. The two fish they tested were a Northern Pikeminnow and a Large Scale Sucker fish which make their home in both the Willamette River and in the McKenzie River…

What the Republican Party won’t do for America, real conservatives can. But we will first need to develop an effective strategy. The Republican Party will not be the vehicle through which conservatives are going to redeem our country. It is not going to be the vessel by which we restore respect for the Constitution, re-awaken traditional values in our society, or return to the basic fundamental principles of personal responsibility and limited government. It is not going to prevent the United States from borrowing more money that it doesn’t have, or stop the Federal Reserve Board from printing fiat money from out of nowhere which is backed up by virtually nothing. The Republican Party such as it be, is never going to implement the much needed policy changes at the Federal level that will stop the United States government from running up large annual deficits or allow us to pay off our huge Federal Debt. So what can we do about that…

It isn’t the proverbial America of the rich and the poor that I am referring to, or a country of the haves and the have nots. No… I am specifically talking about a country where almost half of the voters still believe in limited government and cherish all of our personal freedoms.

Instead of first obtaining American approval for such a military action, and then appealing to the rest of the world for the wider international support that he seeks, he is trying to do it the other way around. He is calling on countries all over Europe, Asia, and the Middle East to support his plan when he doesn’t even have the political backing he needs right here at home.

In commemoration of the twelfth anniversary of the attacks on September 11th I offer this simple little pledge to my fellow Americans, and also in the hope that it might help shame the practitioners of the so called “religion of peace” into joining the rest of the human race…
Read More »Fifty American Soldiers on the Ground in Syria are just Being Used as a Bargaining Chip with the Russians – America’s Disastrous Foreign Policy in the Middle East under Barack Obama
on Thursday, September 5, 2013Any Congressional vote on the authorization to use force in Syria is really a vote on the legitimacy of our own elected government in Washington. It is a crucial test on whether our elected government still actually represents us or not. If our Congress ignores the will of the American people and authorizes an attack on Syria against the express wishes of the overwhelming majority of the American people than what we really have in Washington D.C. is an unrepresentative puppet government…

on Wednesday, August 28, 2013
I received a letter the other day from my electric utility company telling me that they were exploring something called a “service territory transfer”. I thought to myself, “What the heck is that?” Exploration is something you do in outer space, and what the heck is a service territory transfer anyway? What is being transferred, to whom, and why?

on Tuesday, August 27, 2013
The drumbeat of war is being played in Washington over Syria. This is not the battle cry of the Republic. It is not our battle and it is not even our Republic. It is the crazy agenda of the New World Order being played out in the Middle East again. As the drumbeat for war grows louder and the calls for a new military intervention into another Middle East country’s private domestic affairs increase, I would just like to remind everybody of the brilliant successes of our last two military campaigns in the Middle East, one in Libya and the other in Iraq…

on Tuesday, August 20, 2013
This article starts with a short definition of the word progressive. Actually there are two definitions. A progressive is someone who claims to be enlightened or forward thinking, someone who possesses the mindset to improve the quality of life on earth. But there is another more troubling definition for the word progressive that is a more than a little problematic, and not so well understood. The word progressive also describes a process… a step by step process of incremental changes…

on Thursday, August 15, 2013
The Obama Administration deplores the violence that is occurring in Egypt as hundreds of defiant members of the Muslim Brotherhood who have seized parts of downtown Cairo for the past month are finally being forcibly removed from their armed encampments by the interim Egyptian government. This comes only after they were repeatedly asked over the past month to disband, and told to return these parts of the city to normal civilian control. But President Obama blames this violence, and the hundreds of deaths that have occurred there on the Egyptian military, not on the defiant provocateurs who have caused the confrontation with the government forces…
Read More »Just another Bloody Day in the Middle East – Nothing of Lasting Significance
on Wednesday, July 31, 2013
It seems like the Middle East is slowly bleeding to death, and it literally is. Nothing and no one is able to stop all of this bloodletting or staunch the flow of red blood corpuscles, and no one from the West should even bother to try. The inherent hostility that exists between different sects of Muslims predates all of the current conflicts and goes all the way back to the actual founding of their religion when one group of followers of the prophet Mohoammed cut off the head of his only male heir, his nephew Ali. That single act launched Islam on its eternally bloody path…

on Tuesday, July 30, 2013
You thought you heard the last of Anthony Weiner when he resigned from the United States House of Representatives in the face of a sex texting scandal that occurred almost two years ago, but you’re wrong. He is back in the news again just like another high profile member of the political ruling class from South Carolina…

on Friday, July 26, 2013
Stop infringing on my Right to be secure. There are enough willful indiscriminate violations of the 4th Amendment to make Russia’s Vladimir “Ras-Putin” blush, and the Kremlin issue a public apology on behalf of the KGB for providing the United States with the official working role model for our NSA. America is not living up to its reputation as the land of the free anymore, and about the only brave left here at home seem to be those politicians who have enough bravado or chutzpah to routinely and regularly violate our Constitution and the Bill of Rights with apparent impunity…

on Tuesday, July 23, 2013
She is back… The lovely Monica Lewinsky is twenty years older now, and looking remarkably more lovely than ever. She is back again trying to promote the idea for a new book containing her memoirs. In her new memoirs she will supposedly tell all. What memoirs you ask, and what more is there to tell? I thought we had heard just about everything that went on between her and Bill Clinton twenty years ago. What is supposedly new about her memoirs? Besides, who cares anymore anyway? It’s been over twenty years since her tobacco leafed tryst with the former President…

on Monday, July 15, 2013
The NAACP is leading a nationwide effort to have George Zimmerman re-tried on Federal Civil Rights charges, but someone from the Black Panther Party is probably going to try to kill him first before the Department of Justice completes its investigation into the circumstances surrounding the Trayvon Martin shooting. It seems to me that some people don’t want justice. They would rather have George Zimmerman’s head on a stick. The trial is over and the verdict is in. Can we just move on now, or won’t the racist NAACP and their friends in the liberal media let us?
Read More »The Political Aisle
on Wednesday, July 10, 2013There is an aisle that goes right down the middle of the United States House of Representatives that divides that Legislative Body in two. On one side of this aisle are seated Democrats, and on the other side of this aisle are seated the Republicans. That’s the way it has been for the past 237 years. There is also a great political divide that goes right down the middle of the Republican Party…

on Thursday, July 4, 2013
There is an old English saying that everything that goes up eventually comes back down again. Maybe that goes double for every “Spring” that goes up… or at least for every Arab Spring that was sent up by the B.B.C. and by Barack Obama. Maybe every British and American backed Arab Spring that goes up, eventually comes back down again too. It is certainly true of the B.B.C.’s so called Arab Spring that was launched about a year ago by that Socialist news organization…

on Wednesday, June 26, 2013
Elvis has left the building and the Supreme Court has left town… But just before they did they handed out a raft of major decisions. Amazingly enough some of them weren’t so bad. The net effect of the Supreme Court’s two decisions today on DOMA and on California’s Proposition 8 is that the power to decide whether or not to permit same sex marriage is left up to the States as it rightfully should be. This decision should not be construed as a defeat for traditional Christians…

on Sunday, June 16, 2013
Joe Newby continues to write a pack of lies about WePluribUS founder Scott Rohter which are told by only a handful of disgruntled former members of our small social network who now belong to the much bigger Tea Party Community Network owned by Tim Selaty. Joe also writes for the billionaire owner of a major media and entertainment group which owns Examiner.com…
Read More »Joe Newby: Conservative Firing Line or is He just a One Man Conservative Firing “Squad” ?
on Sunday, June 9, 2013
My entire rebuttal to Joe Newby’s hit piece about me in the comment line on his blog was deleted within a few hours. It seems that Mr. Newby is guilty of doing some of the same things that he accuses Facebook of doing.. deleting comments and posts. His site seems more like a one man Conservative Firing Squad to me than a real Conservative Firing Line or blog. At least that is the way that I see it. And it seems like this guy can’t shoot straight either. He obviously gets the facts wrong, and he doesn’t like reading the truth so he deleted my rebuttal although other people are allowed to comment freely on the story especially if you agree with him…

on Tuesday, June 4, 2013
In a close five to four decision which made for very strange bed fellows in Washington this week, the United States Supreme Court struck down the spirit and intent of the Fourth Amendment, and gave to police the power to collect D.N.A. samples from anyone who is accused of committing a crime. Thus, five mere mortals in black robes handed over to police departments all across America the un-constitutional power to compel anyone charged with, but not convicted of committing a crime to involuntarily surrender a sample of their D.N.A…

on Monday, May 27, 2013
How can we best honor our fallen soldiers today? Ask yourself if there really is a higher purpose for some of the crazy things we do as a country. Is there a good reason to send our young men and women half way around the world to fight in no win wars in somebody else’s God forsaken country that means nothing to us? Is there some greater good that is served by letting our young men get their arms and legs blown off, and in too many cases to allow them to sacrifice their very lives on the altar of public service in the mistaken belief that they are protecting our freedoms here at home?

on Thursday, May 23, 2013
Why would I pay attention to them? The Benghazi hearings in Congress were just pure political theatrics. If this Congressional investigation into what happened at Benghazi really meant anything, then it would have produced its findings over six months ago, before the General Election of 2012 when it would have actually had an impact on those elections… not the Presidential Election of 2016…

on Friday, May 17, 2013
President Obama has decided that the solution to the out of control problem of rape in the military is to remove the combat exclusion for women which prevents them from getting into fox holes with men. That’s kind of like saying that we can solve the problem of teen age pregnancy by allowing young boys and girls to sleep together in the same bed…

on Sunday, May 12, 2013
In 2013 President Obama unwittingly extended an open invitation to America’s enemies to drag us into another war in the Middle East. It wasn’t bad enough that we already got sucked into three wars in Libya, Iraq, and Afghanistan from which we are still trying to extricate ourselves, but by issuing his ultimatum not to use chemical weapons in Syria to the combatants in Syria, President Obama has created the conditions by which we can be pulled into still another endless no-win military conflict.

on Saturday, May 4, 2013
On May 1st the United States of America lost another State on the left coast to stupidity. Oregon now follows California in a predictable head long plunge towards Third World Status with the passage of two crazy Bills in the Oregon Legislature. House Bill 2787 grants in state college tuition benefits to illegal aliens, and Senate Bill 833 allows these lawbreakers to obtain an official Oregon driver’s license, to make their illegal stay here more convenient…
