Today, inside, they dedicated a new statue of another American giant, Fredrick Douglas – a man born into slavery, but who knew instinctively that he was not born a slave. No man is.
To keep a man a slave you do much the same as the cruel circus masters did to the elephant around the turn of l...

It seems that the scandals just keep on coming. First, Americans are abandoned to die in a terrorist attack in Benghazi and the American people are lied to about the attack by the President and members of his cabinet. All of the facts are still unknown and the cover up continues.
Then we learn tha...
I spent this past weekend in Syracuse with family I haven’t seen in forty years, sat in the same church in the same pews I once sat next to my Grandparents in and visited their graves with my cousins and “Uncle Bill from the Hill”. Sunday was a perfectly sunny day, sandwiched in be...
Recent news of the NSA collecting metadata of phone calls from communication companies, along with federal law enforcement seeming to continue to press for expansion of its ability to collect personal information online without warrants, has many questioning how safe their own privacy is.

Transparency & the Rule of Law will be the Touchstones of this Presidency.~ Barack Obama, January 2009
How many of us pulled the lever for Obama five years ago hoping for a kinder, gentler, more open and inclusive America? How many of us bought into the notion that Obamacare = Compassion?...

Cancel all Muslim visas and replace them with visas for any Christian or Jew that wants to be American. Shut down our embassies and cut all aid. Lock them out and let them scream and burn all the flags they want. We don't care.

I guess it's safe to say he was right. Isn't it strange that some of same people who cuss his foreign policies are saying the same thing now.
As far as the "we don't care" comment, don't include me in that, because I do care. A lot of old timers and new alike fought and died for that flag and what it stands for and raised our families, made our livings under the protections of that flag and what it stands for It stands for freedom that has been under attach by a bunch of infected flea-bitten muslims. a muslim lovin president and his cronies, who could care less about our country or the flag and what it stands for.
If Romney is elected, and makes a damn parking lot out of those countries, I'll take back all the bad things I ever said about him. less

If you have wild animals you have to keep them caged.The most effective training for them would be to just stop listening. Not unlike a child pron to temper tantrums. You still have to be around to enforce the time out.
As far as the flag burning goes I prefer to put it in context. A childish display. The only way they can say I hate you. It has no meaning to them and no reason to hold it in any regard. Civilized people would have some simple common respect but that's not the case. They want the kind of respect they're unwilling to give. What riles me up is when someone who should have that respect for the flag desecrates it. People who have lived under the protection and with the benefits of the flag. Under those conditions it's a despicable act that I find insulting. less

As far as millions of muslins burning American flags, I think it goes a little farther than "childish"
