Here, in two parts, is the wonderful speech by UKIP Leader Nigel Farage to his party’s Spring Conference in Exeter. Notice that Farage speaks with only a few notes and what appears to be sans the Teleprompter.  He has confidence and has a tremendous delivery. I can’t wait until May 2 to see what will [...]

The Alternative for Germany had their meeting in Berlin today (If you want an enduring memorial to Margaret Thatcher, et al., look at an UNITED BERLIN in ein frei Deutschland!  [I told you I speak a little German!]) and already the Tweedledee/Tweedledum parties have given themselves away! The leader of the Green Party in the [...]

Check out the photograph in the UKIP article I cited here.  It is Nigel Farage with Ron Paul and Peter Schiff!  Farage and Paul allegedly had dinner together (They were speakers at this conference in Chile [Is there something about Chile I don't know?  First the NO movie and now this conference?  Maybe this is [...]

I had a nice article written about my thoughts about the next Pope and I think the Holy Spirit said:  I wouldn’t do that.  So, trying to be obedient, I discarded it.  (For the record, I like the cardinal from Hungary and for former secretary of Pope John Paul II, now the Archbishop of Krakow [...]

NCIS/LA is one of the leading television shows in prime time.  It comes on Tuesdays at 9 pm Eastern time on CBS.  Here’s the latest episode that has the offending dialogue.  Look at about 33 minutes through 34:30.

I read in the New York Times last week about the Chilean movie NO, a film based on the successful upset effort to force General Pinochet from power in his country.  (NO has been nominated for Best Foreign Film and I must warm my readers that it is rated R, probably for political violence, and [...]

Kim Zigfeld writes a “defense” if you can call it that of the Magnitsky Act, one of the worst bills passed by Congress in recent years (and that’s saying something) – deliberate unnecessary probably unconstitutional meddling in the internal affairs of another nation.  But it is mostly a personal attack on Prof. Cohen rather than [...]

This video (HERE’S the link) shows Utah teachers being trained how to use and carry a gun in school.  That’s right – a GUN in school!  One teacher interviewed suggests that schools might even be easy targets if there are no guns available.  Another talked about how she’ll have a bra holster and the kids [...]

When Ron Paul ran for President, many laughed or scorned him when he suggested that unnecessary intervention in other nations’ business.   We do many things that have consequences for us.  Maybe we’ll learn one day:  Non-intervention is best!  But not December 2012 apparently – as the Russian adoption flap shows. The Russian adoption law recently [...]

One of my favorite TV shows was one that only lasted a summer was Mister Sterling, with Josh Brolin as a newly appointed US Senator (the son of a politician played superbly by Josh Brolin) who has his own agenda:  Do what he thinks is right.  Here‘s more info about it.  (I could not find [...]

One of the leading theses of the new (filmed in Richmond) Lincoln movie is that: “Lincoln” centers on the president’s attempt to push the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution (the one prohibiting slavery and involuntary servitude) through the House of Representatives. His party, the Republicans, control the House, but don’t have the necessary two-thirds majority [...]

Former Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell, who I admire and respect very much and who ought to have been Ohio Governor, turns a clever and nice phrase about Ron Paul’s speech in this column found at Townhall: Congressman Ron Paul has just delivered his valedictory address in the House of Representatives. And he has [...]

One of my favorite scenes in a movie I surprisingly like – Michael Collins – is the one where the Irish revolutionary leader is speaking for a candidate for the British Parliament in Ireland who is in jail (The Irish nationalists ran for seats in Parliament, not to go to London, but to form their [...]

I think it’ll be all right if I lift this article from today’s End of Day Report from Gary Bauer.  Although I thoroughly disagree with Bauer on Ron Paul, he is helpful on why we must vote for Mitt Romney on Tuesday! Educate A Voter Throughout this campaign, I have repeatedly urged our supporters to [...]

There was a time, when National Review was edited by William F. Buckley, Jr., that his/its pronouncements were authoritative.  Bill Buckley was a bit like a secular pope for young conservatives like me.  If Buckley said it, it was ex cathedra and spoken with the magisterium.  But, the pope is dead and his successors are [...]

When I first heard the European Union won the Nobel Peace Prize, I thought:  No, it can’t be.  Got to be some sort of EU official.  NOPE.  Not the Onion!  The European Union was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

Now that I have survived another DNC, primarily by not watching any of it, I have wondered what to do about the liberty movement. One of the great things about liberty is that we all have opinions and they all count!  There’s no place for incivility.  Leave that for the Establishment pols. But Doug Wead [...]

I was amazed last evening while waiting for the walkout of Romney’s acceptance speech by the Ron Paul delegates that never occurred.  I was amazed to hear one of our genuine sports heroes, Mike Eruzione, one of the captains of the Miracle on Ice hockey team, say Mitt Romney saved the Olympics.  Yes that Mike [...]
