I’m actually both amused and tremendously surprised at the depth of coverage of Mr. Biden’s pardon of his son this weekend. I’m surprised because everybody had to know it was going to happen. Mr. Biden’s protestations to the contrary, that paragon of virtue was always almost certainly going to pardon his son. No one in […]

Profiles in Political Courage? Anybody? Bueller?
13 May 2024
Our ideal leader should have many positive attributes, but one of the most needed is courage. Most important decisions are fraught with danger–should the plan fail, the leader himself or herself can be at risk. We know that, and many of us decry the politician who sticks his finger in the wind waiting for the […]

The Obvious Retort to Mr. Biden
01 Sep 2022
President Biden, Mr. Unity himself, went full force on attacking what he calls MAGA Republicans* tonight, as they represent “an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.” Let’s assume Mr. Biden really believes this, and this is not just more of the over-the-top rhetoric that both Mr. Biden and Mr. Trump love to […]

Student Loan “Forgiveness”–pure pillage
25 Aug 2022
We’ve talked earlier about the student loan forgiveness, which is really the “stick it to the working joe” executive decision. Most of those paying the costs of this program did not receive the benefit of the loans, yet they’ll have to foot the bill. Indeed, the education received by those who took the loans will, […]

Feds force you to co-sign on a loan, then stiff you with the bill when the borrower defaults!
02 Jun 2022
Proverbs 11:15 tells us: One who is a guarantor for a stranger will certainly suffer for it, But one who hates being a guarantor is secure. While I don’t think the Bible precludes going into debt, there is no doubt that the Bible warns against it. Debt should be thought of as something akin to a chain […]

Mr. Pence: Time to Suit Up
06 Jan 2022
One of the fundamental Christian values is that of prioritizing the pursuit of truth, as Jesus identified himself as the truth, Satan is identified as the father of lies, and not only are lying lips an abomination to the Lord, but in one of the final verdicts in the Bible in Revelation 21, we are […]

Millennials love their Uber, and the sharing/gig economy has been a bright spot for innovative approaches to make cab riding a thing of the past. What’s not to like? Drivers seem to be happy, in that they voluntary agree to work for Uber. Their customers seem to be happy, as they continue migrating away from […]

Wait…What!?!
10 Nov 2016
That has been my reaction several times in the last two days. The first was when I turned on the television for the first time Tuesday midway through the evening and heard that Ohio had gone for Trump by double digits. Wait…what!?! I thought to myself. The final vote was under 10% but that was […]

What is Comey Doing?
04 Nov 2016
James Comey’s decision to reopen the investigation against Sec. Hillary Clinton has caused an immense amount of conjecture. His initial, rather confusing, statements about Sec. Clinton after the first investigation that she had been wreckless, dishonest, and at the very least violated policy related to the handling of classified documents ended with a recommendation that […]

Rule of Man
10 Jul 2016
The recent decision by FBI Director James B. Comey recommending against charging Sec. Hillary Clinton for violations of the law while she served as Secretary of State under President Barak Obama, calls into question the rule of law in this country. Our country was founded on the concept of rule of law. Our mother country, […]
