Risking Mortification of the Flesh

Kudos to Dick Morris for the great job he’s doing to help raise money for the League of American Voters in an effort to stop Obamacare from passing the Senate. Voters under thirty have been the strongest supporters of BHO’s attempt to put a stranglehold on the nation’s economy and gain ever more control over people’s lives.

After the League of American Voters ran ads in Arkansas, North Dakota, and Maine, however, the under-thirty crowd changed its tune and now opposes the Democrats’ Orwellian legislation by an eye-opening 65-25. Which proves again that what I first wrote about in 1979 in Restoring the American Dream is true: Short of a violent counter-revolution, education of the masses is the key to defeating the progressive movement to socialize America.

I love Sarah Palin! That’s the good news. The bad news is that I, and millions of others who love the ex-governor of Alaska, have been greatly disappointed by her recent interviews.

In my previous article, I pointed out how Palin missed many golden opportunities to put her libertarian-centered conservative principles on display in her interview with Sean Hannity. Then, shortly into the first segment of her interview with Bill O’Reilly, it was obvious that she was going to offer more make-nice filibustering. Read the rest of this entry »

I always thought that when Sarah Palin finally resurfaced, she would quickly show whether she was going for the money or planning to run for president. If she’s decided to spend her life pursuing riches, I felt she would speak out boldly and truthfully in an unvarnished way that would whip liberal miscreants into a hysterical frenzy.

On the other hand, I was concerned that if she had presidential ambitions, she might make the mistake of spinning, tip-toeing, and dancing around tough questions in an effort to appear mainstream. Read the rest of this entry »

The Passing-on-Costs Myth

Any civilized person dislikes the thought of minorities being oppressed, and I would argue that the most oppressed minority in the U.S. is the small businessperson. But he is not without his supporters. By and large, his employees think highly of him. Why not? After all, he gives them the opportunity to earn a living.

So, who is it that doesn’t like small business owners? The government! Why? Because small businesspeople are stubbornly independent. They don’t need or want government help. They make their own way in the world. Profitability is the name of the game for them, but it’s not an easy task. Read the rest of this entry »

I caught the last part of Chris Wallace’s interview with Rush Limbaugh last Sunday and was pleased to have it confirmed as being a huge success. That confirmation came from David Axelrod on CBS’ Face the Nation when he dismissed Limbaugh as an entertainer.

Said Axelrod, “He does it every day on radio. He’s marketing the outrageous. And he does very well with it. But, as I said, he’s an entertainer. We’ve got bigger responsibilities.” Read the rest of this entry »

Following is a recent blog post by “deusimplicitus” (slightly edited for clarity):

In America, we’ve been encouraged and taught to make accumulating materialistic tokens, along with hedonism, the norm underlying our national pastime. We have lost sight of all other rational and reasonable characteristics that make a more complete human being. Read the rest of this entry »
