GOP Candidates Need to Recapture ‘Unsexy’ Regulatory Reform Position of Trump Era

Commentary

Surely, you recall former President Trump’s high priority of cutting costly, over-reaching regulations with his policy of eliminating two regulations for every new one.

President Biden is not only reviewing those Obama-era regulations killed by Trump, “new regulations are being rolled out at such an extreme rate that it difficult to keep up,” Paul Bedard reports in the Washington Examiner.read more

More from the Treasure Trove of My ‘Stack of Stuff’

Commentary

In my last post I covered material from my “stack of stuff” on immigration, inflation, Biden corruption, the midterms and climate change, leaving you with “more stuff in my next post.”  Here goes.

Energy

It’s bad enough that we have a president who is clueless on energy matters, but he hired two individuals ill-equipped to provide proper guidance to him at a time when it is needed most. … read more

Strange Things are Happening in the Media … Biden is My April Fool

Commentary

We’re seeing strange things happening in the media.  As I contemplated it, I was reminded of the 1953 record release, “Strange Things Are Happening,” by Red Buttons.

Older readers of this blog may remember it.  When he appeared on television, he would cup his ear and sing “ho ho … he he … ha ha” between the lyric verses

While Buttons was better known for his movie supporting roles in “The Longest Day,” “Hatari!,”… read more

Climate Change: The Daily Humor it Generates

Commentary

Not a day goes by that I don’t hear or read something about climate change that doesn’t bring laughter from this blogger. 

Just last week, I wrote about dogsledders in southwest Michigan who were complaining that because of climate change, the frost-free season grew by 16 days over the past 66 years, resulting in less snowfall.… read more

Views of the Man with Whom We Entrusted the Presidency

Commentary

I found it astonishing that within a few days, President Biden talked of a new world order, intimated we might answer Russia’s use of chemicals in kind, suggested that the 82nd Airborne might see action in Ukraine, and most recently he seemed to call for Putin’s ouster through regime change.… read more

Added Menu Entree: Democrats Eating Their Own

Commentary

I recently wrote of watching Democrats criticizing each other, like the members of the radical squad – Reps. Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, Talib and Pressley – attacking Sen. Joe Manchin over his lack of support for the massive Build Back Better legislation.

It isn’t new. In December, New York Times columnist Frank Bruni wrote a piece, “Democrats’ Dangerous Appetite for Eating Their Own.… read more

Accountability: So Easy to Understand, So Difficult to Secure

Commentary

I have frequently devoted space to call for individuals to be held accountable for their actions.  Hillary Clinton for the loss of lives in Benghazi and President Biden for the loss of lives in his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, are two that come to mind.

I’m still hopeful that Special Counsel John Durham will reveal those accountable for the four-year deep state effort to accuse President Trump of colluding with Russians. … read more

Radical Progressives Push Biden to Declare National Climate Emergency

Commentary

The Democrat Party is known for its identity politics and have labeled Republicans as “racists,” “misogynists,” “nationalists,” and “white supremacists,” among others.

Worried about their own label as “liberals,” that conjured up a negative connotation, they began referring to themselves as “progressives,” supposedly more favorably looked upon as a group with a belief in improving the environment, conditions of life and a duty to take care of economic and social affairs.… read more

What Happened to That ‘Adult in the White House’ Claim?

Commentary

During the 2020 presidential campaign, there was a lot of talk about the need to replace the Twitter-happy guy in the White House and bring decency back; forget all of that he achieved while being constantly harassed with that Russian collusion hoax.

We frequently heard the tired plea from the left, ‘we need to have an adult in the White House.’ … read more
