I’M NOT CONVINCED that Maine Sen. Susan Collins will vote against confirmation of President Trump’s nomination to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Yes, I read her position statement against a vote prior to the election, but I recall her thoughtful consideration of Justice Kavanaugh during his confirmation process when she was thought to be a “no” vote.… read more
THE SUPREME COURT NOMINATION gives even more meaning to the belief that this coming election will be the most important in modern day political history. Just as it was revealed in the CBS News exit polling in 2016, when they found that most Americans – 70 percent – considered Supreme Court appointments an important, or the most important, factor in deciding their vote for president, that statistic is likely to be consistent with 2020 thinking.… read more
NOW WE KNOW THE MEANING OF “PROGRESSIVE” – Within hours of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s passing, progressives (aka liberals, left-wingers, the mob) were out with threats against Republicans should they dare nominate a replacement prior to Election Day.
And we see evidence that the mainstream media are, as President Trump declared early last year, “the enemy of the people.” … read more
IT APPEARS THAT JOE BIDEN, in the interest of full transparency, now prefers that his campaign be referred to as the Harris-Biden campaign. It comes after Kamala Harris and Biden himself made reference to the Harris-Biden administration.
WHY SHOULD YOU CARE? – While most of us have no particular liking of insurance companies, but you should care that the outbreak of civil unrest triggered by the killing of George Floyd has cost insurance companies an estimated $2 billion to cover wreckage by those “peaceful protestors” in 20 states, according to Tristan Justice of The Federalist.… read more
“IT’S THE ECONOMY STUPID” seems to havebeen replaced by “It’s the Suburbs Stupid” by the Democrats as the campaign for the presidency closes in on November 3, 2020.
The focus group-oriented Democrats have seemingly conceded that President Trump leads polls on the performance of the economy, but would have you believe the president is in trouble with suburban wives.… read more
‘NOT SO FAST, KAMALA HARRIS,’ was the lead into Yaron Steinbach’s piece in the New York Post, in which he reported on how the Democrat vice presidential candidate “got a bit ahead of herself when she referred to the ‘Harris administration,’ while discussing economic plans during a virtual roundtable.”… read more
I RESPECT religious leaders who speak out on morality, even when they do so outside of their places of worship, in print and in television interviews. However, a group of faith leaders in Phoenix, Arizona strayed in an Arizona Republic op-ed calling for a “moral summons to combat climate change.”
They continued to use the tired, unproven statement that the “vast majority of climate scientists” tell us that, to protect our health and economy, we must deal with the imminent and coming threats of climate change.… read more
THOSE ACADEMY AWARDS – I lost interest in the Academy Awards years ago. I like to make up my own mind on what movies are worth seeing and whether a certain actor or actress was outstanding.
Last week, the awards people released new eligibility rules for nominations to vie for the vaunted gold-plated statue. … read more
WE MUST NEVER FORGET – I would be remiss if I didn’t make note of the anniversary of the dastardly Islamic terrorist planned attack on New York’s World Trade Center, the Pentagon and the nation’s Capitol building in Washington DC on September 11, 2001.
The last target, the U.S. Capitol building, was foiled by 40 brave souls aboard United Airlines Flight 93, who caused hijackers to crash the plane in Pennsylvania.… read more
BIDEN WILL REGRET attacking President Trump on his handling of Covid-19, and the latest conveniently timed surfacing of an interview with Bob Woodward in which the president appears to play down the seriousness of the virus.
By now, I’m sure you have heard, and understand, the president’s concern that he didn’t want to panic Americans. … read more
