The French Revolution was a bloody mess. Blood literally flowed in the streets. The god of reason was substituted for the only true God. When this happened, irrationalism served as a cruel and vindictive master. There’s a new revolution on the march in France. And while it might not be

There’s not much about Egypt’s president Mohammed Morsi that I agree with, but something he said the other day caught my attention. His comments might prove helpful in getting Americans to understand how our system of government should work: “Morsi criticized U.S. dealings with the Arab world, saying it is

When the leader of the free world lies to the world over and over again about an event that nearly everyone knew was untrue, it’s time for him to find another line of work. It’s shocking to me that more than 50 percent of voters say they will vote for

How do we know Romney sounds like a conservative? The media are attacking him for something he said in June that was surreptitiously recorded by, if the reports are true, Jimmy Carter’s grandson. Why would Carter’s grandson do this? It’s simple. He wants Obama to win a second term. With

The Senate race in Virginia between Tim Kaine and George Allen is getting interesting. Democrat Senate candidate Tim Kaine said that he’s open to having a “minimum tax level for everyone.” This is an admission that Mitt Romney’s statement that 47 percent of wage earners don’t pay any federal income

Job security is important to everybody. But the government didn’t come to the rescue of other companies that were failing. The government came to GM’s rescue and let other companies die because there were millions of votes at stake in the rustbelt states of Ohio and Michigan and a union

Alan Colmes, a token liberal talker on Fox News, following liberal religious talking points, claims that Jesus “believed the rich should give to the poor.” Let’s assume that Colmes’ analysis of Jesus is correct on this point. This is a far cry from saying that rich people should be taxed

Of course we know who’s lying — the Obama Administration. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice said the attack on the American consulate in Benghazi last week was not premeditated. A top Libyan official says the attack was planned in advance. Who should we believe? Going back to

One of my habits is to read books and articles about social and political trends that were predicted more than 25 years ago to see how well the prognosticators did. I used to love to read Popular Mechanics magazine and the stories that were published about what the future will

College professors have a lot of control over students. They can make or break a student’s career by manipulating his or her grades, failing a student for not holding politically correct positions, or even refusing to graduate a student who does not believe that homosexuality is morally and clinically normative.

As I mentioned in a previous article, things are beginning to unravel for the Obama Administration. The center can’t hold. The media have done everything in their limited power to keep his administration from imploding. Now there are events happening around the world that are beyond their control. They’re still

There have been some awful anti-Christian art pieces and films in the past few decades. Where were our government officials and the Hollywood “holier-than-thou” literati crowd when artist and photographer Andres Serrano unveiled his “Piss Christ”? It was a photograph of a “small plastic crucifix submerged in a glass of

Liberal radio talker Randi Rhodes trumpeted on her show that the GOP and Conservative Talk Radio Want to “Piss Away” Arab Democracy. Here are some of her comments: “You have Republicans who never trusted the people — they don’t like people, they don’t trust people, they trust corporations. You get

The President and his liberal compatriots were excited to see the Arab Spring bring democracy to a nation like Egypt. There is no doubt that the presidency of Hosni Mubarak was corrupt and needed to be changed. Riots in the streets don’t breed confidence. It would be like putting the

The Bible has a great deal to say about words and how they are used. It also has a great deal to say about deeds. Consider the following in light of the way President Obama and his fellow-liberals speak about Islam and how they speak about Christianity. As you read

If there was one thing Jesus despised more than anything else it was hypocrisy. “But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you shut off the kingdom of heaven from people; for you do not enter in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.

Because of Godfather Politics’ large audience, we receive a lot of referral articles, websites to check out, and just some plain fun stuff that brightens our day in a time of political darkness. Somebody who’s a lot more clever than I am wrote the following. (My addition is on Bureauacritizatium.)

In an interview with Mitt Romney, David Gregory confronted the GOP nominee with this comment about foreign policy experience: “[President Obama] used some pretty tough words in talking about you, saying you and Paul Ryan are, quote, ‘New to foreign policy. Want to take us back to an era of
