It is ironic that there was allegedly found in the Lincoln movie (filmed in Richmond!) a historic flaw: That two of the four congressmen from Connecticut voted against the real 13th Amendment! (Not the first 13th Amendment that would have maintained slavery!) The Connecticut Congressman Joe Courtney reports as such in the Huffington Post: He […]

The Wall Street Journal has this intriguing report about the so-called Bigelow Snub: That the director of the movie Zero Dark Thirty, Kathryn Bigelow, was the victim of (ready now? It’s shocking!) right wing politics! That the Academy caved to right-wing criticism surrounding this movie and refused to nominate the director (the film was nominated […]

I went with my family last week to DC (Yes it was me that you saw looking at the fossils and dinosaurs and the Star Spangled Banner last Friday!) and if you are not awed by the history in our nations capital and the constitutional Republic we established (by the grace of God!) you need […]

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 […]

This is something I wrote this summer and decided it wasn’t right. Now I feel better about it since the Lincoln issue has arisen due to the OTHER Lincoln movie: This wonderfully satirical movie portraying the Sixteenth President as a vampire hunter made me laugh. It’s about time Lincoln got some ridicule. He certainly needs […]

I discussed the Ron Paul Newsletter a few days ago which he claims he had no knowledge of at the time. And Paul’s followers take him at his word. They might want to reconsider this one. Only there is a problem with his assertion that he knew nothing about these letters. My CPAC friend Doug […]

The Council has spoken, the votes have been cast, and the results are in for this week, carved eternally in the akashic records of cyberspace. We had close matches this week in both council and non-Council categories, a measure of the quality of all these entries. And boy, do we have some excellent winners this […]

A congressman from North Carolina is proposing that President Ronald Reagan be placed on the fifty dollar bill. Rep. Patrick McHenry contends that we need heroes for today: “Every generation needs its own heroes,” McHenry also said. “One decade into the 21st century, it’s time to honor the last great president of the 20th and give […]

I know this topic is a bit stale at this point, but it is a discussion we, as a nation, need to have. There is no doubt that African-Americans have suffered and continue to suffer from racism. But in a case of political correctness run amok, many people like President Obama’s old friend Reverend Jeremiah […]
