Not a Strange Bedfellows Story as Some May See It

Commentary

It has been said that politics makes for strange bedfellows, but except for last month’s tribute to the late Sen. Bob Dole, we haven’t seen much collegiality in Washington.

The one-year anniversary of the January 6, 2021 breaching of the Capitol could have been a unifying event, but Pelosi & Company had other ideas, stemming from her formation of select committee to investigate the protest, and designed to paint Republicans as white supremacists out to dismantle our democracy going into the midterms.… read more

Democrats’ Despicable Attempt to Gain One Party Rule

Commentary

You probably heard the speeches and saw the candlelight vigil commemorating the one-year anniversary of the January 6, 2021 breach of the nation’s Capitol.

It was over-the-top leftist theatrics, beginning with Vice President Harris’ ridiculous comparison of that day with the day Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941 and the day terrorists downed the World Trade Center buildings in 2001 … days “when our democracy came under assault,” she said.… read more

Part 2: A Year to Dread What’s in Store, or Take Back America

Commentary

In Part 1 of my look ahead, I wrote of the mid-December Axios/Momentive survey revealing that more than half of Americans dreaded what was in store for the country, with a third claiming they were fearful of what 2022 would bring.

A subsequent Axios/Momentive survey, conducted between January 1-3, 2022, revealed that 53 percent of adults view America as more divided today than ever before and likely to continue.… read more

Part 1: 2022 a Year of Dread What’s in Store, or Beginning to Take Back America

Commentary

“Let 2022 be the year when we say enough, no more.  When we demand more of our nation, our neighbors and ourselves.  Things cannot continue as they are.  This is not the new normal, we refuse to let it be.” – Ben Domenech, The Federalist

I am an optimist … a glass half-full person … and I hesitate telling you about a recent Axios/Momentive survey revealing that more than half of Americans dread what 2022 has in store for the country, with 30 percent claiming they were more fearful of what 2022 would bring.… read more

Revisiting My 2021 Year-end Review

Commentary

In my December 28, 2021 commentary, I briefly touched on what was a bad year, not only for President Biden, but for America’s well-being, while suggesting that the left would not portray it as the disaster it was.

I could find no criticism of Biden’s open-door policy that permitted a 21-year high flow of migrants to freely cross our border.… read more

2021 Not a Good Year for the “C’mon Man’s” Legacy Nor America’s Well-Being

Commentary

It’s that time of year when the news networks and newspapers do their review of the year in passing as the new year is ushered in.  It will be interesting to see how they portray the “C’mon Man’s” first year.  They won’t resemble my portrayal, I assure you.

Of course, you will remember how President-elect Joe Biden pledged to be the president who sought not to divide but to unify.… read more

Topics From My Stack of Stuff to Close Out the Year

Commentary

BIRDS OF A FEATHER

A NEW CNN/SSRS poll reports that President Biden’s numbers are worse than Jimmy Carter’s at the same period of his presidency.  That shouldn’t surprise you.

IN THE LATEST MARIST poll, two thirds of independent voters disapprove of Biden, including half, who strongly disapprove.  Just 29 percent of independents approve of his performance.… read more

Enough With the ‘Pay Your Fair Share’ Nonsense

Commentary

Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren saw the selection of entrepreneur Elon Musk by Time magazine as its Person of the Year as an opportunity to accuse him of not paying taxes and “freeloading off everyone else.”

Liberals use the “fair share” disinformation in their futile attempt to paint the wealthy as un-American, when they are simply using the tax code to avoid paying more than required, and they hire financial advisors to assist them.… read more

Pelosi Has to Go, But Then You Know That

Commentary

“What it is, it’s outrageous.  Obviously, it cannot continue.  But the fact is that there is an attitude of lawlessness in our country that springs from I don’t know where, maybe you do, and we cannot have lawlessness become the norm.”

That was Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s response to a media inquiry regarding San Francisco Mayor London Breed’s announced plan to crack down on criminal behavior, referencing smash-and-grab robberies and open-air drug use.… read more

Media Treating Biden Worse Than Trump? C’mon, Man

Commentary

When the whiners in the White House complained about the treatment by the media, even to the point of saying the media was treating Biden worse than Trump, Nick Arama, writing in Red State said it is “a demonstratable untruth.”  Of course it is.

Dana Milbank, one of the Biden water-carriers at the Washington Post, seemingly had to be convinced, no doubt because the Post has been a Biden sympathizer in print.… read more
