I’m minding my own business, watching segments of the Breaking Bad Marathon on AMC while taking notes for several writing projects, and all of a sudden I hear something familiar. It’s Bryan Cranston plugging his new Broadway play “All the Way”1 where he plays President Lyndon Bains Johnson. Cranston has

When I first heard this story, I thought it was some nutty environmentalist. Maybe some tree hugger was upset with Sarah Palin because she and her family chapped down an oxygen-giving evergreen conifer only to burn it a few weeks later with the result that the gasses would end up

Donations and corporate shakedowns must be at an all time low at Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow PUSH Coalition offices. He’s back in the news looking for the spotlight so he can rev up black discontent and outrage because of what some white guy said about his perceptions of what it was

We could save a lot of money and political angst by just appointing judges to make laws for us. We’re already at that point that our lives have been turned over to five unelected people sitting on the Supreme Court. “Let it be written . . . Let it be

As I’ve written in two previous articles about the upcoming Blood Moons in 2014/2015, (here and here), there are a number of Christian writers who claim that they will signal some type of end-time prophetic event. These types of speculations have a long and anti-climatic history. On December 31, 1979,

For centuries prophecy writers have been predicting prophetic events based on a whole host of supposed end-time indicators. The latest prophetic speculation centers around four “blood moons” — called a “tetrad” — that will occur in 2014/2015 may have something to do with the “rapture” or some other unnamed prophetic

Janet Yellen will become the chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank beginning February 1, 2014. Was the Senate premature in choosing her? Is there racism in her past? I’m writing this article as if I were a racialist. A racialist is someone who looks for any reason to sabotage a

MSNBC has a new host. He’s Mia Farrow’s son, Ronan Farrow.1 Ronan is a smart guy. He graduated from college at 15. He graduated from Yale Law School. He subsequently studied at Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar in 2012. It seems that all his learning has left him bereft

Conservatives are upset that when President Obama read the Gettysburg Address for Ken Burns he did not include the phrase “under God.” Actually, I’m glad Mr. Burns had President Obama read the original written address and not a later edited version. More about this in a moment. God was not

The first Bible printed in America was Mamusse Wunneetupanatamwe Up-Biblum God, also known as Algonquian Bible, was done through the translation work of the English Puritan missionary John Eliot (c. 1604-1690). Eliot believed the Bible could be used to “recreate a Christian society” among the native population where political and

GQ magazine published an article about baby names and the modern trend to name children with offbeat identifying monikers. Drew Magary offers this introduction and then a series of warnings to the baby-naming parents: “The power that comes with naming a child can be both intimidating and addictive, and we

The long-heralded feminist and mouthpiece for unrestrictive abortion Gloria Steinem was honored by President Obama. In addition to honoring Steinem, he also made the opportunity for Steinem to honor her philosophical mentor Margaret Sanger (1879-1966). The following is from CNSNews.com: “Speaking at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., on

Fact: The United States Senate and House of Representatives are different. But you would never know that if you listen to liberal pundit Toure Neblett. Neblett likes to tell everybody else what to think and believe. He’s often called on as an expert witness for the liberal cause. He’s the

Sarah Palin compared the federal debt to slavery. Al Sharpton took immediate offense: “Our federal debt is like slavery? Slavery was horrific, vile, a vile practice that was explicitly based on race. So it’s hard to avoid sounding racist when you make comparisons like that. This kind of talk has

A plaque on Northeastern Illinois University’s Frank Lloyd Wright building reads “This building is dedicated to public service honoring the memory of Abraham Lincoln — Democrat.” I first saw this story on Facebook. It’s now getting wider attention. The controversy is over identifying Lincoln as a “Democrat.” In reality, he

I believe President Obama chose Joe Biden as vice president because Biden would make Obama look good. There would never be any question about Joe Biden overshadowing the President. There was no way that Obama was going to lose running against John McCain and the liberal media no matter who

If it’s one thing the Senate requires it’s decorum, and claims of a Masonic conspiracy is not proper decorum. While the Senate members might not care about governing in terms of the oath they took, they do like things done “decently and in order.” National Review Online makes the following

If we are to believe evolutionists like Richard Dawkins, religion is the enemy of science. He’s not the first atheist to make this claim. But when Dawkins speaks these days, people listen and react. For example, this tweet about Islam and science got a stern response: “[A]ll the world’s Muslims
