UPDATE 2/11/20: Thank the Lord Rush Limbaugh’s on! ORIGINAL POST 2/9/20:  A great leader, like a great parent, doesn’t lead so much as instruct others how to take the reins for themselves. This is the essence of the Conservative worldview: independence, autonomy, responsibility, initiative, take pride in and defend what is yours, live and...

If a family is a tyranny ruled over by its weakest member (attributed to G.B. Shaw),  a society can just as easily be tyrannized by its losers, naysayers and malcontents. All Americans (and much of the Western world) are granted the fundamentals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, but for many, particularly...

In a very long, wide-ranging conversation, New York Jewish Liberal David Samuels and California Catholic Conservative Angelo Codevilla engage in the ultimate bull session about American politics and the perks & perils of American power.

One recurring, reassuring thought about today’s politics is that the Conservative side is focused on swinging wide the doors of opportunity offered ALL Americans while the Left/Progressive/Whatever-It-Calls-Itself-This Week side simply exists to destroy Conservatives.

We grow impatient for a reckoning. We are sick of being on permanent trial for the dual offenses of breathing and not voting for Barack or Hillary.    Sadly, even now with Trump “pardoned” for the cooked-up Russian Collusion crime he didn’t commit, he and all realistic Conservatives know they cannot enjoy the luxury...

In the 1945 film “Leave Her To Heaven” Gene Tierney, insane over losing Cornel Wilde to Jeanne Crain, perversely commits suicide and makes it appear to be murder in order to frame Crain for the crime. Now that’s hate! Is it safe to ask if the Democratic Party is fashioning a similarly bizarre self-immolation...

“A peace that was truly permanent would be the same as a permanent war. This–although the vast majority of Party members understand it only in a shallower sense–is the inner meaning of the Party slogan: WAR IS PEACE.” ― George Orwell , 1984.
