America Derailed
Rights organizations have historically been a blessing to life as we know it today. While they did not necessarily reflect the ideology of every person in this great country, their purpose was for progression and prosperity of the nation as a whole. Women’s rights, abolishment of slavery, equal opportunity employment and to a good degree, affirmative action have all been for positive change to move our country forward. Now we are stuck in a gravy bowl of economic turmoil and some of these new found organizations are just adding flour.

States Rights – a Feudal System
Bear with me – sometimes the answers to current problems have historical roots – and the answers to complex problems have already been worked out. Over time people have tried varieties of government and economic systems. Our Founding Fathers studied the history of government and molded the bold liberal experiment that we now call the […]

McCain, “My Friends, trust me”
McCain wants the people to trust him. We are nauseated every time we hear McCain use the term ‘my friends,’ he wears it out. He suggests he is your friend – but we should all check the value of or 401k’s today. That is the true measure of how much the Republican brand is your […]

Race is perception – why it matters in politics

Today we are skeptical about those who wish to claim the mantle of leadership for cultural change. Race is always important. We loved Martin […]

Ron Paul, Marijuana, Government
Son, Ron Paul takes huge leaps of logic. There is a fundamental problem with his libertarian philosophy. That philosophy ignores the inter-dependence of modern society. Centralized government must take a larger role in a world where individuals States can no longer stand alone – Marijuana crosses the State borders like the wind. No one State […]

Pelosi – Mothering of Congress, no smoking
Son, Is Nancy Pelosis the mother figure of Congress? No – this is just another sexist comment by Chris Matthews on Hardball. Pelosi has established some rules about smoking on Capital Hill.

Animal Rights vs Wildlife Management
Son, We live in a crowded world. There are many lifeforms competing for the same land, water, and air. But we happen to be humans – so get out of the way other lifeforms. That has been the human motto for thousands of years. But I think we have pushed too hard. Wildlife is now […]
