Thoughts on Zimmerman Verdict
July 15, 2013 by 13 Comments
I did not anticipate a "Not Guilty" verdict in the trial of George Zimmerman. It came as a complete shock. For months, I told people that the Left and their clapping seals in the news media would force Zimmerman into the cruel existence of a sacrificial lamb. This was a certain fate, for though a … [Read more...]

Both during the trial and after the verdict was delivered, the reaction of those hoping for a guilty verdict was universal: The facts of the case were ignored.

Fuzzy history: Were blacks officially considered 3/5 human?
July 9, 2013 by 80 Comments
Not often, but often enough when discussing slavery or America's treatment of blacks and black slaves, someone will introduce the notion that they once were only considered three-fifths of a person, or similarly three-fifths human.

I said to myself, 'there's no way that's a Liberal', and that's said. It shouldn't be so easy to … [Read more...]

We need “slave” labor and “slave wages”… don’t we?
July 3, 2013 by 14 Comments
Many people decry, rightly, the low paying wages which illegal immigrants and foreign factory workers earn. Granted it's not very much, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone willing to accept the alternative. Understand that I'm not suggesting that anyone be forced into what we might … [Read more...]

Liberal Bias?

What’s your fair share?
June 25, 2013 by 83 Comments
