My Invisible God Is Better Than Yours

October 10, 2011

There was a lot of talk over the weekend about former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney's Mormon religion. This past weekend brought us the Value Voters Summit in D.C. The gathering is organized and run by mostly far right, conservative evangelical Christian leaders. The Summit's straw vote went to Ron Paul….but the hubbub from the weekend [...]

Moral Immorality?

September 15, 2011

Washington Post… Antiabortion activists who have sought for months to shut down a Germantown (Maryland) clinic picketed its landlord outside a Montgomery County middle school where his daughter is a student, school and police officials said Monday. Keep in mind here, picketers protesting abortion did so at the middle school where the daughter of the [...]

Why They Hate Us

September 1, 2011

I give credit to the Akron Beacon Journal for including this story in today's paper. With an all volunteer military and a compromised and corrupt national media, Americans don't often hear the truth about our numerous military adventures in foreign lands. I guess it's just easier that way. If Americans were kept informed about our [...]

Let Us Prey

August 16, 2011

In April, I reported on the polling of Texas Republicans revealing that 51% of Texas GOP'ers agreed with Governor Rick Perry that "Texas may need to leave the United States." Just a reminder of what type of conservatives we're dealing with down in the Looney Star State. From April of this year also came Governor [...]

We're Going To Hurt Some People

July 28, 2011

It was a Friday night in the fall of 1965. There was a high school dance that night but football players were prohibited from attending because we had a game the next day. The coach didn't want anyone distracted over, you know, girlfriends. He wanted everyone focused and rested. So he made us attend a [...]

Standing Guard

July 21, 2011

I'm just so sick of the D.C. debt ceiling amateur theater production that I thought I'd share something a bit more personal today. Last week was a sad week for The Reverend household. Two extended family members died untimely deaths from cancer. The 55 year old was a great guy with a sharp wit who [...]

GOP's Non-Primetime Players

June 14, 2011

Repeal ObamaCare, cut corporate taxes, cut capital gains taxes, further deteriorate unions by pushing a federal right-to-work law, eliminate the EPA, don't increase the federal government's debt ceiling, pass a traditional marriage constitutional amendment to counter gay marriage initiatives, repeal Dodd-Frank and Sarbanes-Oxley, repeal the repeal of DADT, discriminate openly against Muslim Americans…..and, naturally, Obama [...]

Facts Stubbornly Maintain Liberal Bent

May 27, 2011

Washington D.C.'s "Beltway Media" has been obsessed with national deficits and debt ever since the black Democratic President Obama took office. Before Obama took office, while the previous administration was doubling the national debt and exploding the deficit, very little was said about debt and deficits. No one noticed, I guess. The moment the new [...]

Is GOP Anti-Life?

May 13, 2011

Oh my. A number of Catholic academics have signed a letter to House Speaker John Boehner encouraging him to reconsider his political party's policies of stripping services from the most vulnerable while simultaneously giving the wealthy more tax breaks. Quick review. All but four House Republicans voted for the now-infamous Ryan budget. As detailed here [...]

Blame It On The Unemployed

May 9, 2011

A first. My blog protocol ate my blog post. Nothing left. Now I'm pissed….and so I'm only going to reconstruct the highlights. Florida has a 10.5% unemployment rate. Florida has no state income tax…..because brilliant Florida politicians know for sure that having a state income tax means fewer jobs and less prosperity. Don't ask me [...]
