Updated April 22, 2011: Unfortunately, Mr. Harris decided to leave the Republican Party. While frustration with the party is understandable, the move to the Libertarian Party is not. I had no idea that Mr. Harris would ever embrace a Libertarian platform; it doesn’t line up with what we discussed or what I thought I knew […]
You think its “Democrats” that are killing this country? You’re right, they are – the party consists of an overwhelming majority of Socialist / Marxist / Fascist / Dictatorial types, so they must get top billing. The thing, is, there’s another killer. But it is quiet – nearly silent. And it’s among us. The enemy […]
I met Nathan Dahm a year ago at the Freedom 21 Conference in Oklahoma City while conducting interviews for A New America. My friend, Sandra Crosnoe, spoke very highly of him. She was hoping at that time that he would run for the U.S. Congressional seat in District 1. Upon meeting Nathan, I found him […]
As I noted in my most recent post, I believe Oklahoma’s July 27 primary election is worthy of attention and active support from those of us who wish to see our country return to core Constitutional principles. Howard Houchen is running for OK’s U.S. Congressional District 2 seat. Over the last year, I have come [...]
I’m in Nebraska. Why do I care what happens in the Oklahoma primary election on July 27? While I do have a number of friends and contacts there, that is not what drives my concern. I have come to believe that Oklahoma is at the tip of a spear that for so many reasons, is [...]

Renovation seems a theme for me lately – largely driven by necessity. The Lord knows I need a little nudging to take on just ONE more thing these [...]
Humor can be a very effective tool. But it’s grown rather dusty in the toolbox of folks who don’t abide political correctness, outright lies, or other nonsense well. For some reason, the ability to produce witty and effective video has been largely lacking from the common sense, truth telling crowd. Until recently – at least [...]
The story goes that Benjamin Franklin was approached by a woman as he left the Constitutional Convention (1, 2). She asked, “What have you given us?” Franklin is said to have replied, “A republic, if you can keep it.” This exchange was common knowledge 50 years or so ago, as commonly taught to schoolchildren as [...]
Recently, we’ve run a series of posts responding to a misleading article in the July 4 edition of the Lincoln Journal Star. One of those posts was entitled Is Ignorance Bliss? No. Ignorance is Ignorance. It addressed the problems inherent in our education system – people don’t know history anymore. For at least the past [...]
We’ve recently posted a series inspired by a Lincoln Journal Star on July 4 entitled “Whose side are the Founding Fathers on?” Part One: “The Founding? Move Along Folks, Nothing to See There. Onward Progress!” Part one points out that the author of the LJS article attempts to appear [...]
