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

Much has been written about the life of Sen. Bob Dole since his passing at age 98 on Sunday, but the story that everyone seems to miss is the one of America’s finicky voters.
Here was a man who came from modest means from Kansas, flyover country, who sacrificed his life in World War II, returning with wounds that made his right arm useless after a year of fighting blood clots and infection, still willing to serve his country.… read more

When I write a blog commenting on a single topic, a number of items end up on my stack of stuff, hopefully to be shared with you later. Here are a few I thought would be of interest.
Voter Irregularities
While President Trump continues to be criticized for the “Big Lie” with challenges to the validity of the 2020 presidential election, examples of irregularities continue to surface from various states.… read more

‘It was an opportunity too good to pass up. Fox had been good to me for a decade, but what the heck, I don’t owe them my allegiance.
‘I can’t sit back and allow Tucker Carlson and Fox Nation get away with their attempt to clear Trump from inciting the January 6, 2021 riot and breach of the Capitol.… read more

Some 10 years ago, while writing op-eds and letters to editors while living in the conservative Hill Country of Texas, I enjoyed taking on a handful of Democrat contributors to a regular column in the Boerne Star called “Progressive Views.”
One of the regulars on the left blamed conservatives for “befouling the word liberal to the point that many who possess the qualities of a liberal have abandoned the term in favor of the more palatable word – progressive.”… read more

“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

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

Does the name Fiona Hill come to memory? It did to me.
I recall her stern appearance, her mannerisms and British accent, and I wondered why she was invited by the Democrats to testify at the hearing covering the Ukraine and the Trump-Zelensky phone call. She left her job in the White House national security office 10 days before the phone call took place.… read more

Surely, you’ve heard how the McAuliffe for Governor campaign in Virginia tried to tie their Republican opponent Glenn Youngkin to former President Trump.
During President Biden’s campaign appearance for Terry McAuliffe, he mentioned Trump more than 24 times in his 17-minute stump speech.
During a brief Q&A Wednesday, after making remarks on Covid injections for kids, Fox’s Peter Doocey asked him why he referred to Trump so many times in his Virginia speech.… read more

Yesterday, I purposely chose to combine the recognition of my November Fool’s Day honorees with the preview of COP26, the UN climate change summit in Glasgow, Scotland, where foolishness will abound for two weeks.
Some 30,000 people are expected to participate in the event, from presidents and prime ministers to community activists, all of whom believe that human activities influence climate change, and their use of fossil fuels has to be stopped. … read more
