Seriously, How Can an American Identify as a Socialist?

Commentary

The misplaced fascination with socialism and the return of the “big tent” philosophy is red meat for conservative commentators, yet I’m being told to take it seriously.  Yes, I’ve seen the polls reflecting that 34 percent of Democrats identify as “democratic socialists,” possibly imagining this is their answer to stopping President Trump and he MAGA movement, but it’s not going anywhere.… read more

Sorry, Mr. President: I’m Not with You on This One

Commentary

Remembering the Late Rush Limbaugh this Fourth of July

Commentary

Rush H. Limbaugh, Jr.

Why Rush Limbaugh, you ask.  Because on each Fourth of July he would share a memorable speech about the signing of the Declaration of Independence given by his father.  Although this is more than twice as long as my usual commentaries, it’s worthy of your time, and I’m proud to reprint that speech, especially for those who have not read it. … read more
