Silence is consent
The schizophrenic foreign policy of the Democratic Party
“I have a scheme”
A half a century has passed since the greatest speech of my lifetime was delivered.
Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” speech still moves me to tears.
Read it. It is magnificent, so superior to the drivel delivered by our current president.
Barack Obama had such potential. His election PROVED that America had moved into a post-racial era. After all, a majority of white Americans voted for an African-American candidate…

I believe in vacations.
Vacations rejuvenate us. They make us more productive. That’s why I’m a little less critical of President Obama’s prolific golf and vacation schedule than many conservatives. He really has a pressure-cooker job…

America expended a ton of blood, sweat, and tears to stabilize Iraq. Honorable people can disagree on whether we should have gone to war. In light of Mr. Obama’s decision to withdraw, in light of Iraq’s subsequent rapid descent into chaos, the U.S. clearly should not have gone to war. American lives were lost in vain…

A conversation at the Iowans for Life booth at the Iowa State Fair
“Look, a baby!”
One kid after another squealed that phrase in delight yesterday. You should have seen them.
I was working a shift at the booth for Iowans for Life at the Iowa State Fair. We had accurate models of the human person at 12 weeks in the womb, 16 weeks, 22 weeks, and 26 weeks.
