Some Topical Stuff from My ‘Stack of Stuff’

Commentary

Regular readers know that I endeavor to address a single topic in my blog, but that I occasionally go to my ‘Stack of Stuff’ for topics on which I still want to comment.  This is one of those days.

February 17, 2022 was the one-year anniversary of the passing of Rush Limbaugh, but on that day, I felt compelled to relate the story of Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation into the corruption traced to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign that the media was trying to hide from the American public. … read more

In Case You Haven’t Noticed, Things are Changing in Washington DC

Commentary

“All great changes are preceded by chaos.” – Deepak Chopra M.D.

We all saw it coming from the day Joe Biden was elected, and for sure on Day One of his presidency, when he chucked the goal of unifying America and, one by one, reversed the policies of President Trump, in a personal vengeance against him and Americans who voted for him.… read more

What Would You Be Willing to Pay for All-Renewable Energy? The Costs are Enormous

Commentary

Regular readers will recall that I have devoted a great deal of commentary on the subject of climate change, and the flawed effort to end our dependence on fossil fuels in favor of renewable sources like solar and wind.

I have noted surveys showing strong pubic support for wind and solar energy, but there was always that doubt about just how much they would be willing to pay more for it. … 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

The Mess Created Under Biden’s Watch in Just 11 Months

Commentary

I heard someone say recently, ‘Just think, if President Biden hadn’t reversed President Trump’s policies, he would probably be enjoying a 51 percent approval rating rather than a 51 percent disapproval rating.’

The economy under Trump was coming back when Biden put an end to our energy independence by stopping the Keystone pipeline and drilling. … read more

The Gullible Among Us Believe We Can Alter Climate Change

Commentary

“Combating climate change and slowing the rate at which Earth warms will mean transitioning away from fossil fuels, the major source of greenhouse gas emissions.”

Those were the words of Melissa Quinn and Kathryn Watson, who collaborated on a piece about the social spending and climate bill recently sent over to the Senate. … read more

If It’s Not Biden, Who’s Pulling His Strings?

Commentary

A day doesn’t go by that I am not embarrassed, disgusted, appalled, angry, outraged, or just plain pissed off with President Biden.

IN TROUBLE WITH HIS HANDLERS.

Before he was elected, it was all about his gaffes, but many of us tired of hearing ‘that’s just Ole Joe.’  In office now for less than a year, his gaffes are insignificant compared to his lack of judgement.… read more
