Certain segments of South Korean society have been strongly anti-American for some time. They must be an ungrateful people, seeing as how our tax dollars have been keeping their country in existence for the last 50 years. Like a petulant teenage daughter, perhaps it is time for them to chart their own course. I’m sure…

Re-districting Solution?
Usually William Raspberry makes me faintly ill. But his recent editorial about winner-take-all elections and redistricting/gerrymandering actually makes some sense. Of course, that means it will never be implemented…
Time to Redistrict Texas
This excellent editorial in the Houston Chronicle shows why Texas Democrats ran away to Oklahoma to avoid doing the long-over due job of re-districting this state to match its demographics.
Martha Stewart a Scapegoat, Distraction
Martha Stewart is being used to distract us, the victims, from the lack of prosecution of those responsible for the dot-com stock scandals. “Look, we’re doing something!” crows the SEC. And yes, she probably did trade on inside information. That happens every day. If we prosecuted everyone who did so, we’d have more white-collars in…
More Clinton Dirt
Oh-oh, Hillary’s got her own book out now. While it is highly unlikely that I will read this offering, I was disturbed by the article linked above. Disturbed because for the first time, I knowingly agreed with something a Clinton said. This in regards to her judgement that Bill’s affair with Monica (whose book I…
Minorities, Democrats, and Us
A minority view: the problem with liberals This is a terrific, well-written editorial written by Lionel Garcia about the uses Democrats have for their minority supporters. My fondest wish is that people who vote Democratic “on principle” will read this article and recognize the truth that it purports. Texas Democrats are building their own glass…
Texas Democrats are back in Austin
What I want to know is if they are going to spend any time in jail. That’s pretty much all I want to know about those jokers. We’ve had to live with 135 years of their districting in this state, it only seems fair to give the other guy a shot at running things, what…
Texas Dems Hiding
Democrats continue to cower in Oklahoma as the Texas state government grinds to a halt. One good thing about this is that the Texas state house can’t screw anything up when there’s no quorum. It’s truly pathetic, however, that the petulant Democrats are being so childish. After 125+ consecutive years of monopolistic Democratic rule in…
Dems Run from Redistricting
A group of Democratic lawmakers went into hiding Monday to block a Republican congressional redistricting plan. What will they think of next? Hmmm, “our message doesn’t interest voters, so let’s run away to ensure there’s no quorum?” That’s genius at work! Somehow, I don’t think that’s not a democratic tactic that Thomas Jefferson had in…
Ollie North and Al Gore
I received this little ditty from a relative today: It was 1987, during the Reagan Administration. Lt.Col. Oliver North was testifying at the Iran-Contra hearings in front of God and country. What he said was stunning to look back upon. He was being drilled by a senator. “Did you not recently spend close to $60,000…
