I have often thought that it is a good thing that America did not have to fight World War II under the same criteria as the War in Afghanistan is being fought.     AMERICA WOULD HAVE LOST. Why? Well, for one thing, we went into the war with one thought in mind — to win — [...]

“Today at the front, he died … Today, what did you do? “Next time you see (or hear) a list of the dead and wounded, ask yourself: “What have I done today for freedom? “What can I do tomorrow that will save the lives of “men (and women) like this and help them win the war?” The above is not from [...]

It is now time for some political education. Is there a difference between, say, a Conservative and a Republican? What are the differences between Right-Wing, Moderate, Far-Right, Religious Right, and Belt-Way Conservatives? What is a RINO? Or are there differences? Going further in this conservative blog is a comparison of the terminology to identify a [...]

The first time I became aware of conservatism in politics was in the 1964 presidential election where Barry Goldwater ran against Lyndon Johnson. I was twenty-five. Goldwater rejected the legacy of the New Deal from the Great Depression era and is most often credited for sparking the resurgence of Conservative America in the 1960’s. Because [...]

Continuing with my own suggestions for Healthcare Reform, other than Government Control, I would like to discuss eliminating pre-existing conditions as being a requirement to getting health insurance. This, on the surface, seems a very logical proposal to embrace. This would make it so that people could move from insurance carrier to insurance carrier as [...]

Very few Americans cannot see the need for healthcare reform, myself included. However, the majority of Americans, around 80%, do not feel that the Federal Government needs to take over the running of healthcare in order to fix what needs to be fixed and are happy with their health insurance they have now. Below are [...]

There is revolution going on in Education in America. Only a few people are aware of this revolution — that is the frightening state of what is happening in our textbooks. For a little background, there are 140,000 schools in America, yet only three major textbook companies which produce most of the textbooks used in [...]

Democrats, Republicans, and Independents, we are all Americans first. Health Care Reform affects us all, yet this political issue seems to be pulling at America’s very roots. But the American people cannot be silenced. We will be heard. As politicians try their level best to silence us, put us down, diminish our voices of protest, we [...]
