Why demonize the rich? I think I know why
December 5, 2012 by 89 Comments
The liberal message of tax the rich has been in high gear for the past three to four years, and ramped up significantly over the course of the presidential campaign season. The mantra that the wealthy don't pay enough, let alone their "fair share" is inescapable. Though I'm not one to buy into … [Read more...]
Local atheist outraged over religion in schools
November 27, 2012 by 12 Comments
I don't know if there's something in the water or what. But Atheists, who claim the intellectual high-ground mind you, can't seem to keep a level head when even the semblance of religion squeaks its way into public schools. Whether it's a graduation being held in a church hall, or cheerleaders who … [Read more...]

Eleven years since the hijacked airliners razed the World Trade Center buildings. The event was so sobering, its unifying effect on all Americans was powerful.

Drew Peterson, a former Illinois police officer, has been convicted of murdering his third wife, Kathleen Savio.

Peterson was convicted based nearly entirely on witness testimony, and much … [Read more...]
How do you know when something’s racist?
September 6, 2012 by 18 Comments
Democrat cheerleaders have taken the line that criticism of President Obama is laced with racism. We cannot discuss that welfare spending has skyrocketed, that's racist. We cannot discuss that the number food stamp recipients has skyrocketed, that's racist. We cannot make sure voters are who they … [Read more...]
The Miracles Of Jesus
August 4, 2012 by 39 Comments
I'm always a bit disappointed at what some skeptics pedestalize as good arguments for their "non-belief". Perhaps I'm biased against some of the criticisms. And perhaps some of the criticisms aren't up to what should be par. One example of what might not be up to par is how skeptics explain … [Read more...]
The Bible Is Just A Book Of Fairy Tales And Myth
July 2, 2012 by 55 Comments
Skeptics find any way they can to dismiss the Bible as authoritative by any means they can. Claiming it is just a collection of fairy tales, myths and legend is one of the more casual (and uninformed) ways to disregard the Bible. It is particularly flippant and seems to be based solely on the … [Read more...]
Campaign Spending and Scott Walker
June 7, 2012 by 1 Comment
Republican Governor Scott Walker has successfully -- and quite handily -- defeated his Democrat opponent Tom Barrett in a union led recall election. Not surprising Liberals and Democrats are already making excuses for their landslide loss. The immediate narrative is the amount of money in campaign … [Read more...]
Playing the race card requires training
May 12, 2012 by 21 Comments
For the last three and a half years we have been told by political pundits who lean left that criticizing the President is racist. Regardless of the merit of the critique, it is dismissed out of hand because 'some people just can't get over the fact that a black man sits in the white house'. Now, … [Read more...]

Because voter ID laws are racist
April 3, 2012 by 5 Comments
Political tension rises as multiple States vie to set in place voter identification laws requiring voters to produce photo identification in order to cast their ballot. Those on the left make the claim that requiring someone to produce ID to vote is a veiled effort to disenfranchise minority … [Read more...]
If I Were The Devil
March 22, 2012 by 18 Comments
This is a recording of Paul Harvey from a 1965 broadcast that is currently making its way around conservative blogs. In it Harvey lays out his plan, if he were the devil, for America in order to dismantle it. I have to say, it's quite eerie how many of his "predictions" we find present in America … [Read more...]
Answer The Telephone, Part 2
December 30, 2011 by 52 Comments
In part one of Answer The Telephone, I discussed the critic's objection: the texts of the Bible have been edited and redacted (for whatever reason, be it clarification or theological tampering) during the history of its transmission so that we cannot know what the originals had to say, and the … [Read more...]
Voter ID and the Elderly
December 29, 2011 by 27 Comments
No one group of people enjoys creating victims like liberal activists. Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson create victims of racial "bias".

Answer The Telephone, Part 1
December 27, 2011 by 20 Comments
Most people who read the Bible do not concern themselves with anything deeper than the words on the page. What I mean is, outside the few with a penchant for exploring textual criticism, people trust that the words in their hands are the words that were written -- translated, of course, from their … [Read more...]

Obama is a socialist, or a crypto-socialist. And Obama is somehow like the Joker, unpredictable … [Read more...]
