[July 21, 2024] President Joe Biden just announced that he is withdrawing from his candidacy for a second term “for the good of the country.” Readers know that I am one of those who had hoped he would stay in the race, not because Trump could beat him, but because that is how we Americans can see the… Read More »
[July 18, 2024] Well folks, it’s been a serious week, so we can now turn our attention to some biting humor to make us laugh. The Babylon Bee, my favorite humor site, has done themselves proud with humor on the latest government goofs. I like this one the best “Think Women Can’t Do The Job? Here are 12… Read More »
[July 17, 2024] I’ve heard this question repeatedly asked since I voluntarily joined the U.S. Army in 1974. Should there be a military draft in the U.S.? I don’t think this is the right question because we must first understand why any nation needs a draft. The reason for a military draft is to ensure there are sufficient… Read More »
[July 16, 2024] Pulling the operating rod handle back, I inspected the chamber of my American-made M1 Garand Rifle, a rifle used during World War II. While cleaning the rifle, my wife watched a British detective television series called Foyle’s War. Recently, she got me interested in the series, too. I think it might be my affinity for… Read More »
[July 15, 2024] It’s hard for me to write this today, but here are my thoughts on the assassination attempt on Donald J. Trump’s life and the utter failure of the U.S. Secret Service this past Saturday. It is incomprehensible that a 20-year-old, immature, would-be assassin could get within 130 yards of Trump with a rifle in the… Read More »
[July 14, 2024] The day after an assassination attempt on ex-president Donald J. Trump, details are still emerging, and for that reason, we should all take care about spreading questionable information. What we do know is that Leftist Democrats and their media cousins are already spinning this terrible situation as somehow Trump’s fault (e.g., a false flag) or… Read More »
[July 13, 2024] After watching President Joe Biden give a press conference last night and him taking “pre-approved” questions from “pre-selected” journalists, I’m reminded of several times in my military career when I worked for people too dumb to be a senior leader. I’ve written about them before, so I won’t open that can of worms. But I… Read More »
[July 11, 2024] Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor delivered a dissenting opinion on the majority opinion that presidents are immune from prosecution for actions related to their core duties. Her hysterics show that she is nothing but a political hack and seriously uneducated on U.S. law, the military, and American culture, or, more likely, she wants to be… Read More »
[July 6, 2024] I want to thank Joe Biden for the moniker Lying Dog-Faced Pony Soldier, and today I’m using it as a descriptor for America’s left-wing media that has known about Biden’s mental decline for years but has failed to clue us in on the “secret.” Carl Bernstein, the fabled Watergate reporter and anti-Trump cheerleader, just said… Read More »
[July 5, 2024] A couple of days ago, Scott Johnson at PowerLineBlog posted an amusing post about the Presidential “campaign songs.” This article is devoted to figuring out what the Biden-Harris theme song will be. And Scott goes back a few years to give us examples from Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama. … Read More »
