Who Voted for Ron Paul in Iowa and Why?
There are four categories of Ron Paul voters. The first category is made up of true Paul supporters. They vote for Paul because they truly believe in his platform. We don’t know how many true Paulian believers there are since they are disproportionally vocal, visible, and determined, a good set
New York City Denies Second Amendment Rights
I live just a few miles from the most pro-gun city in the United States – Kennesaw Georgia – where gun ownership is mandatory. It’s not the “Wild West” like some people predicted when it passed a mandatory gun ownership law. “The city of Kennesaw was selected by Family Circle
EEOC Says High School Drop Outs Are Disabled
When the government passed the ADA, the Americans with Disabilities Act, in 1990, most people thought the new laws would protect people with physical disabilities from employment discrimination. The good intentions of some have gone bad on the many: Disability is defined by the ADA as “a physical or mental
Beware! Rick Santorum is a ‘Pro-Life Statist’
Many have been critical of Mitt Romney for his religious views. Little has been said about those of Rick Santorum. It’s rather surprising that evangelicals, most of whom are Protestants, are turning to Santorum as their “Republican flavor of the week.” How much do they know about his views? Yes,
Could Abraham Lincoln Run and Win in 2012?
Abraham Lincoln is a political icon to those on the Left and Right. Conservatives like Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck consider him to be our nation’s greatest president, as do many others. Some have compared Barack Obama to Lincoln. Check out the CBS article “The Obama-Lincoln Parallel: A Closer Look”
The Most Dangerous Bill in Congress: SOPA
“We’re from the government, and we’re here to help you.” When you hear these words, run for the hills and take your possessions with you. When the government steps into to fix a problem where there is no problem, you can bet that the new law will be used by
Huckabee Says Paul Supporters Not ‘Mainstream America’
I like Ron Paul. I’ve followed his career since the 1980s. I mostly like him on economic matters. To me, some of his views on foreign policy are naïve. While our current drug laws are a disaster, I doubt that he’s going to get any traction with a proposal to
Revising History for Our Destruction
It’s been said that the victors write the textbooks. I supposed this is the way it should be. As a nation, if we want to know who has won the ideological war in America, take a look at the our textbooks and popular writing on historical subjects. Dr. Gary North
Ron Paul Criticism Heats Up the Internet
David Bahnsen has been a vocal critic of Ron Paul. Bahnsen has written several articles that have gotten a lot of attention, some of it bordering on hate-filled vitriol.

Christian Vote Divided In Iowa
Last week I received a phone call from a long-time friend and political operative from Texas. He told me about a meeting that was taking place in Memphis. A group of evangelical leaders were meeting in order to get behind a single Republican candidate. The momentum was moving toward Newt
‘Most Wasteful Spending’ Report Misses the Point
“It’s not your money!” If I had a chance to stand before Congress and speak to them about government spending, that’s the first thing I would say. It’s easy to spend someone else’s money. It’s easy to loan someone else’s money. Here’s the next thing I would say. “It doesn’t
Hitler’s War on Christmas
Every December a battle ensues over the acknowledgement that the 25th is a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. It’s called Christmas. Retailers who make a boat load of money during the Christmas season have tried to walk the narrow line of political correctness by using the less religious
The Dangers of Gun Control
There are those who “suspect the Obama administration used the gun-running operation [Fast and Furious] to support regulations Congress would not even consider, namely, a rule requiring gun stores in the Southwest to report anyone who tries to buy multiple ‘long guns,’ or rifles, in a one-week period.” The border
“Keep Christ in Christmas” Brings Out the Haters
There, I can use the “hate” word, too. Every time a conservative objects to some Liberal practice or policy, he’s described as a “hater” or using “hate speech.” Well, back at you! The latest hate-fest is taking place in Pitman, New Jersey. People are taking sides over a banner that
Are There Moral Economic Standards?
If you listen to Liberals, Jesus was a socialist and the Bible calls for wealth redistribution. There are many Christians who maintain that economics is a “neutral” enterprise where religion in general and Christianity in particular don’t apply to this world and time. Liberals only quote the Bible when they
Sharia Law Deciding American Court Cases
“Shariah Law and American Courts: An Assessment of State Appellate Court Cases,” published by the Center for Security Policy, is one of the most comprehensive studies I have ever seen. It covers more than 600 pages of material. The following summary statement is shocking: Our findings suggest that Shariah law
There’s Third-Party Talk in the Air
“Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman Jr. is hinting he might run at the top of a third-party ticket if he doesn’t win his party’s nomination,” the folks at The Daily are reporting. After vowing to run as a Republican or nothing at all, Huntsman gave himself a little wiggle room
Don’t Send Blagojevich to Prison!
Before we get into the subject of this article, you need to know that Rod Blagojevich, former Illinois governor, who is going to prison for 14 years for trying to sell President Obama’s former Senate seat, is a Democrat. Why do I bring up his political party affiliation? Because if
