I was never a Ted Cruz fan. Nor was I a supporter. But as a Republican, I would have voted for him over Hillary Clinton. And I would not have trashed him if Cruz were the nominee. And I will tell you this, all of the hatred and vitriol that the anti Trump and #NeverTrump […]

The Washington Post took a sort-of contest as to what issues and what questions their readers would ask the candidates. Here is the article. I was so fascinated with some of the questions that I decided to suggest answers (No I am not running for President – not this time!) for these questions: Military and […]

I (Sandy) was so impressed with this column that I asked special permission from Michael to repost it here: “Maybe the reasons for a loss of faith, or hope, is more about what is missing than what is happening.“ The tectonic plates are moving under America. Politically, culturally and religiously. The earth-shaking, unpredictable election year […]

I have had several people notice that I have not been writing as much as usual. Most of my close friends and acquaintances know why, but there are a lot of people that read this blog all over the country that I have not had the pleasure of meeting. And while this is a political […]

Reading Steve Tucker’s article last week on Bull Elephant I was as usual appreciative of the knowledge , writing skill and perspective Steve always brings to these discussions. He is a thoughtful and very deliberate observer of all things politic. He does however in this instance miss his mark. The article deals with the ineffectiveness […]

We’re going to have some fun and make some noise and get ready to work to ensure a victory for the “good guys” in November.

Donald Trump had spent time talking about the issue and I thought it would hurt him if he ever ran for President. And it could have done so. Here’s what I would […]

I was appalled (sadly again) by the President in Laos and I did not approve what amounted to an apology for the Vietnam War. Now I know full well we did not win in Vietnam but I contend that was a failure of will on our part not that we could not win. And Laos […]

“Being an American is increasingly viewed as an optional box to check, and the honor of citizenship is relative to what is received, not what is required.” Most of us have been there; the computer screen turns an ominous blue, data becomes irretrievable, and whole files disappear. Then panic sets in. You start punching keys […]

“She thought it is too important to be left to politicians.” Phyllis Schlafly, dead at 92, will be eulogized extensively by those who knew this formidable, brilliant and complex woman personally.
