Anyone who has ever been a member of the Girl Scouts of the United States of America, a Scout leader, or active supporter of the GSUSA knows the organization has always been one of the finest in the country and the preeminent group advocating for American girls and young women.  

Until recently.  

Celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2012, the GSUSA boasts a membership of over 2.3 million girls aged 10 to 17.  They used to recite the Girl Scout Promise: “On my honor, I will try: To serve God and my country, To help people at all times, And to … Read the rest

  Public education in America has been in serious trouble for decades and now a new problem has arisen: racial discrimination against black kids by teachers, administrators, and entire districts. 

At least that’s the conclusion drawn by some African-American educators, the mainstream media, and the Obama adminstration.  

Our schools have long been plagued by declining test scores, graduates who can’t read or cipher, high dropout rates, violence, cheating and sex scandals, and little to nothing has been done to substantively address those issues. 

Instead, attention has lately been focused on the scourge of bullying–which has existed for as long as there … Read the rest

  Bill Clinton’s old Secretary of Labor, the diminutive Robert Reich with an ego the size of Monica Lewinsky, is predicting a 2012 Democrat Party ticket of Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton to oppose the yet-to-be-designated Republican nominee.  

In an article appearing on BusinessInsider.com, Reich concludes, “Obama-Clinton 2012.  It’s a natural.”

If that prognostication were not enough to curl conservative hairs, Reich also thinks the bumbler-in-chief, VP Joe Biden, will switch jobs with Hillary and become America’s chief diplomat, Secretary of State, in a second Obama administration. (http://read.bi/rUgnBb)

It was a shock, a shock I tell you, to discover that Festivus, the holiday for the rest of us, was not the brainchild of Frank Costanza, George’s father on “Seinfeld.”  Close enough, it was the creation of “Seinfeld” screenwriter, Daniel O’Keefe, whose family has celebrated Festivus on December 23rd for 45 years.

As such, the faux holiday pre-dated another phony festival, Kwanzaa.  The chief difference between the two is that everyone watching “Seinfeld” knew Festivus was a joke.  Kwanzaa is a joke as well but few people are aware it is also a racist-inspired, Marxist creation of an ex-con … Read the rest

“Good news” is a very subjective term. 

Some people regard the slight uptick in Barack Hussein Obama’s job approval ratings as a positive, others perceive it as ominous for the next election.  Some consider unfortunate Tuesday’s Pentagon announcement that troops returning from Iraq won’t be honored with parades as per custom at the end of a war, others applaud the decision since they don’t like wars or soldiers. 

What’s good and what’s bad often depends on one’s perspective.     

However, though there are inevitably those who can find dark clouds on bright, sunny days and evil in virtue, various developments over … Read the rest

I began writing an article entitled “A Christmas Retrospective” with, “The eventful year 2011 now drawing to a close may have been one filled with natural, political, and sociological disasters yet it produced unmistakable signs that all is not lost for America and the rest of humanity.”   

I recounted the earthquakes, tsunamis, and tornados, the Arab Spring which portended an Arab Winter and worsening national and international tensions, the Occupy upheavals suggestive of revolution supported by Barack Hussein Obama 201 and yet I decided 2011 wasn’t as much a debacle as it was a year of hope springing eternal for … Read the rest

  Normally, it’s proper to show respect for the dead.  Kim Jong-il, the bloodthirsty Communist dictator of North Korea is dead and deserved no respect, proper or otherwise. 

It’s time, though, to reflect on the passing of the man former Democrat president Jimmy Carter and the United Nations mourned and whose designated heir Carter wished great success. 

Apparently born Yuri Irsenovich Kim apparently in Siberia, apparently somewhere Kim decided he wasn’t Siberian and became Kim Jong-il and ruled North Korea in high heels for some 17 years until his apparent death on  December 17th or 19th.   

Many things are only “apparent” … Read the rest

“The Christmas Story”



“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and The Government shall be upon His Shoulder: and His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty GOD, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His Government and peace there shall be no end, upon the Throne of David, and upon His Kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will perform this” (Isaiah 9:6-7).

by The Holy Spirit through The Apostles … Read the rest

“The only wisdom we can hope to acquire/ Is the wisdom of humilty.”–T.S. Eliot

  The latest talk in Washington mostly  concerns sizes–the size of tax cuts and Michelle’s posterior even after the president’s bitter half  made a startling admission to Barbara Walters on “20/20.”  

The FLOTUS hasn’t publicly responded to Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner’s ungentlemanly observation that she is a hypocrite for preaching the evils of obesity while sporting significant rear baggage.  Admitting her self-absorption is a bigger story, anyway.  

In a “20-20″ interview, Barbara Walters suggested Michelle Obama’s statement that she is her own highest priority sounded just a … Read the rest

  It’s long been the feeling that opponents of Christmas festivities and  observances were just anti-Christian, anti-traditionalists, anti-everythings,  with a fringe that was just plain insane. 

Now it seems the lunatics have seized total control in the annual War on Christmas and the inmates are calling the shots. 

Things were bad enough when atheists throughout America staged mindless, envious, wars against community Nativity scenes, when naked homosexual Santas pranced through San Francisco, when North Korea threatened war with South Korea over Christmas trees, when the USPS ordered a Bellevue, Washington mailman to stop dressing as Santa Claus, and when Rhode Island … Read the rest
