All of a Sudden the Bible Matters to John Kerry

Liberals Denounce Burger King for Wanting to Save Money
The Left has gone into an apoplectic nose dive over the story that Burger King may reincorporate in Canada to lower its taxes. Many are calling the move “un-American.” How so? How is it unAmerican to want to save money for its investors? Wasn’t one of the arguments for same-sex

Building in NJ Named after JFK to be Named after Barack Obama
Personally, I don’t anything about the names of buildings. If local residents want to rename a building after Barack Obama, as some in a town in NJ want to do, I’m fine with it as long as it doesn’t cost me any money. The thing of it is, the name
What St. Louis Rioters Can Learn from ‘Mutiny on the Bounty’
An unarmed teenager was shot and killed by a policeman in St Louis. We don’t know the whole story. It doesn’t matter. It’s not right that many who are outraged by the shooting are using the incident as an excuse to riot and vent their anger. “Images and videos captured
Should Parents Have to Pay for Dead Daughter’s Student Loan Debt?

Religious “Expert” Reza Aslan Believes Rich and Poor Should “Switch Places”
Reza Aslan is a self-describe biblical expert and he author of Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth.

Thomas Sowell Takes on the Ignorant Non-Thinkers
The first book I read by Thomas Sowell was Knowledge and Decisions (1980).It’s a dense book, but it is filled with so many interesting stories, facts, and analogies that it’s worth taking the time to plow through it. The story about Walt Disney and his early art is filled with

RIP James Garner and Thanks for this Commentary on Liberal Think
James Garner (1929-2014), who died over the weekend, was what I call a nonchalant actor. He made acting look easy. Garner did not have an easy upbringing. His childhood has been described as “Dickensian” . . . that played like a modern day Oliver Twist.” His mother died when he
My Response to ‘Native American’ Elizabeth Warren and her ’11 Commandments of Progressivism’
Crazy leftists want Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren to run for president in 2016. She’s described as a “liberal superstar.” Many are dumping Hillary for Warren. It could be the battle of the sexless in 2016. What were the people of Massachusetts thinking? She’s not only a plague on Massachusetts, but
Why Consistent Pushback is Necessary to Defeat Liberals

The internet has made it possible to do an end run around the establishment GOP and media sources that have had a stranglehold on information for decades.
