Liberal historian blames Democratic election repudiation on racism

By quinersdiner | December 14, 2016

“I don’t think it has anything to do with him personally, except that he’s a black man. The election of Trump was a gut-level response to what many Americans interpreted as an insult eight years ago, and have been seething against ever since. The only way you can see Trump as somehow Obama’s fault is Obama’s very being. It’s ontological.”

How to defeat the culture of death: education

By quinersdiner | December 11, 2016

Many people don’t understand what is at stake, especially when they’re told that the unique, one-of-a-kind person in the womb, you know, the one who might figure out how to cure cancer some day, is merely a clump of cells.

We can stop this brain drain and this relentless erosion of human dignity by redoubling our efforts to teach.

That’s what Iowans for Life does. Teach.

A simple way to get rid of Obamacare

By quinersdiner | December 8, 2016

“… about eight million people have paid the tax penalty for violating the individual mandate to buy insurance, and another 12 million have received regulatory exemptions. In other words, more people who were supposed to benefit from ObamaCare have opted out than have enrolled.”

More selective outrage from the Left

The most beautiful woman in human history is still hated

By quinersdiner | December 8, 2016

How could such a beautiful soul be so hated? Scripture gives us a clue in the Book of Genesis:

“I will establish a feud between thee and the woman, between thy offspring and hers; she is to crush thy head, while thou dost lie in wait at her heels” (Gen 3:15).

FDR and his fellow presidents talk about God

What do you do when your country is attacked? Turn to God.

I’ll never forget after 9/11 how people flocked back to my church and churches all over this great nation. People just showed up.

We wanted to be together in our time of need.

Presidents are just the same.

On this 75th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, I’d like to share some of the quotes from American presidents on God and religion, with a special emphasis on President Franklin Roosevelt:

Pearl Harbor revealed American greatness

Seventy-five years ago today, Japan launched a pre-emptive attack against our country.

President Roosevelt responded with resolve:

“Yesterday, December 7th, 1941 — a date which will live in infamy — the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.”

He was clear to the American people that our exceptionalism would see us through:

“With confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph — so help us God…

Politically-correct capitalism is a loser

By quinersdiner | December 4, 2016

I got an email from the Democratic Party yesterday.

They’re raising money in an attempt to overturn the stunning mandate won by Republicans in the election.

Here’s a flavor of their “love note”:

“What do Wilbur Ross and Steven Mnuchin — Trump’s incoming Secretaries of Commerce and the Treasury — have in common?

They’re both Wall Street billionaires who got rich preying on working Americans and foreclosing on their homes. And once confirmed, they plan to start bringing back the Bush-era economic policies that helped lead us to the worst economic recession since the Great Depression.”

They dost protest too much, methinks…
