REFLECTIONS

The answer is that no government can take bankruptcy. The most recent of the result of a government going bust is the Union of Soviet Republics: it had to finally dissolve itself out of existence when its state-secrets became too burdensome. There are some Americans sayings States should be allowed to file bankruptcy. The Federal [...]

There are some things that just leave me too speechless to comment rationally upon. This is one of them. Fayetteville, North Carolina,  home of Fort Bragg, is planning a 10-day celebration and homecoming this November to honor Vietnam Vets.  As part of this celebration, Fayetteville Mayor Tony Chavonne has decided to “honor” the Vets by [...]

Oh, Lord, the football hype between Chicago and Green Bay is getting just a bit silly. Help!, I am an innocent bystander caught between their crossfires. My college classmate, Fritz Laeser of Edgewater Inn & Cottages wrote last Wednesday: Aaron Rodgers, who art in Lambeau, Hallowed be thine arm. Thy bowl will come, it will [...]

If  you loathe the Constitution for the flaws it once contained, how can you in honesty take an oath to protect and preserve it?  If you took the oath only to obtain the office, but hold the Constitution in contempt, then your office and your service is a fraud.  http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2011/01/028085.php The guys at Powerline are [...]

Read the Constitution but read a copy which puts the articles of amendments within the actual original document.

(see http://marlettsmith.com/documents/usconstitution.htm) With current American population the traditional way to read the Constitution (preamble, original, amendments) their eyes will [...]

I can’t top the Powerline guys when it comes to analyzing Palestinian Arabs so I am not going to even try This is, by a wide margin, the sickest culture on Earth, and for the foreseeable future, there isn’t anything that can be done about it. The only question is why do people like Condoleezza [...]
