As a Navy Veteran it is not hard to understand why my fellow Vets would back George Allen. Allen is the Veteran’s candidate of choice because he is right on so many issues facing Veterans today. But mostly, because the looming Defense cuts will decimate our military if they are allowed to go into effect. Veterans know […]

The Senate is considering what seems on its face like a non-controversial UN treaty: the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. But it is controversial or it ought to be!

I like Senator Marco Rubio. He’s a rising star in the GOP. And Senator Rubio is still better than either President Obama or VP Biden. But his speech on foreign policy was terrible. It could have been written by Senator Lindsey Graham. That is no compliment. Here’s the text and some highlights, or maybe lowlights: […]
