On this Easter evening, I would like to take just a second to express my profoundest thanksgiving for what Jesus Christ has done for me and for all who place their unfeigned trust in Him to rescue them from condemnation due to sin. Jesus has won the victory over sin, death, Hell and the Devil. […]

Some News to Ponder: In No Particular Order
14 Feb 2017
The news keeps coming in and things keep boiling in and around Washington, DC, that bastion of all things good and decent. Let’s just list a few: General Flynn resigns, ostensibly for some security missteps. Another part of this story however is the revealed extreme politicization of the Intelligence agencies and the Justice Department. For […]

Why? And What Now?
09 Nov 2016
At about 3 AM last night we were informed that Donald Trump would be our 45th president. My daughter photographed the screen and we all went to bed. But now the next phase in all this process begins: governance–which is very different from winning a campaign. Before I get to that, let me say a […]

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.

As many (most?) had expected the Supreme Court held today that homosexual marriage is some sort of fundamental right under the Due Process and Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection Clauses. The case was decided by a narrow 5-4 majority, with—of course—Justice Anthony Kennedy writing the opinion and the other justices lining up predictably on either side. […]

Some economic links from the web worth reading
09 Jun 2015
Over on Cafe Hayek, Don Boudreaux has yet another gem on the minimum wage. I love his economic work so much that I am almost despondent that I’ll never be as logically articulate as he is. But I’ll keep trying. In that article I offer an extended quote for the day: One of the greatest […]

Obama’s Favorite Breakfast Meal–Moral Equivalence President Obama appears to attract all manners of controversy at the National Prayer Breakfast. Sometimes he is the target and sometimes he is the source. Remember, Ben Carson made headlines when he castigated Obama’s health care policies at the event several years ago. Now, the President used the Prayer Breakfast […]
