We are the Holy Communion people
My mother-in-law, Ann, has lived with me for the past fifteen years.
I know this kind of arrangement wouldn’t work for everyone, but it did for Karen and me. Mom was truly one of my best friends.
She died at home on Saturday in Karen’s arms…

White people are scum.
Michelle Obama doesn’t quite put it that way. But in a recent commencement address at a primarily black college, she expressed her revulsion:

They mistakenly may feel that their lives lack meaning, and they are susceptible to the pressures placed on them by the euthanasia cult…

A man walks into a bakery owned by two Muslim brothers.
He hands them the photo above and says, “I’d like you to bake me a cake just like this one.”
It is possible, even likely, that the Muslim bakers would decline the order for religious reasons.
Like Jews, Muslims refrain from consuming pork, considering it unclean.
Here is the question: would liberals and their allies in the mainstream media be aghast?

Who are the racists?
I don’t know who scares me more: liberals or conservatives
Modern American liberalism has morphed into something monstrous…
