Sunday Is For Religion, Tuesday Is For Politics

We obviously have a system that promotes a separation of Church and State. The week begins with Sunday at Church – then we take a day to cool off and return to a mentality of sanity, so we can go vote. Most elections are held on the first Tuesday of November or April. Church is always on Sunday, no matter which month. And that is how America works – faithfully keeping religion separate from politics.

In each case it was because the folks there were not following the rules […]

Death Penalty Politics

Son, Government has many responsibilities.  The preamble to the constitution mentions ‘domestic tranquility” as one.  What does that mean – generally we think of maintaining order in a civilized manner.  And we maintain order with the rule of law.  The rule of law is much better than the rule of Monarchy or dictatorship, or no […]

The Year of Fear – 2008

Son, Irony abounds. An Election for President of the U. S. is upon us. We are talking about the leader of the free world. Some candidates for this heralded office use fear to jerk the chains of voters. Freedom and fear are not compatible concepts. Further irony reeks from the pores of candidate supporters – […]
