North Korea
Look at a satellite map at night, and see the bright lights all over the world. Except Venezuela and North Korea anyway, whose countries are as black as the surrounding night. Both are ruled by low IQ dictators who...
The Mother of Most Problems
It’s a rather bold statement I admit, but just go back 85 years, and try to picture what was NOT going on then. No Social Security, no Medicaid, Medicare, Section 8 housing, public housing, food stamps, or handouts of...
What's an Infidel
Written by Rick Mathes, a well-known leader in prison ministry. "The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the U S, especially in the minority races. Not the Catholics, not the...
Fake News
It’s all the rage now, and it seems impossible to avoid mention of it. It’s something never before heard of until Donald Trump was elected, and that is “Fake News.” Before the Trump election,...
Carry Permits
( I’m ambivalent about Trump’s Syria strike) Do you have a ‘concealed permit’ to carry a gun? I don’t. Where, in the Second Amendment are there instructions for government to issue...
Put Me In Charge
( I didn’t write this. It is a letter to Waco Texas Tribune) Put me in charge of food stamps. I’d get rid of Lone Star Cards: No cash for Ding Dong’s or Ho Ho’s, just money for 50...
Obamacare
For many long years, Republicans swore about, derided, maimed, and campaigned against the health care act, known as “Obamacare,” which was passed and made into law, without a single Republican vote. Republicans...
Refugees
After the Revolution, when the newly formed United States was in operation, it is quite obvious that we were formed by refugees from foreign lands. When the Founders fought Mother England, it was because of heavy taxation...
So What?
President Donald Trump woke up one day last week, and tweeted that Obama had hacked into his phone during the campaign. That started another media frenzy, which will probably not die down in the near future. I say,...
Climate Change
“The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer, and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday, from the Consulate at Bergen...
Why Us?
A long time ago, as a matter of fact, it’ll be forty years ago in November, I went into the precious metals business. November, 1977 it was. I was 43, and there were no TV advertisers. I was virtually...
Public Lands
A Colorado paper recently moaned about the hundreds of millions of dead trees, which were, and still are being killed by beetles. According to the paper, the hundreds of millions of dead trees in National Forest and BLM...
Who's to Pay?
One of Trump’s most popular promises to voters, when he was running for office, was that he would “build a wall.” That was fine, except he also promised that Mexico would pay for it. I always had...
Statue of Liberty
One of the most mistaken ideas of late, is that the wonderful, graceful, Statue of Liberty, which graces New York Harbor, is identified with the poem inside its base. Titled, “The New Colossus.” You know,...
Globalization
That’s really the “In” word now, isn’t it? At least for the liberals and all the others who currently suck at our treasury and goodwill. ‘Globalization,’ is merely another way of...
Save the Earth!
Are you familiar with the phrase ”Acid Rain?” Probably not, at least unless you’re as old as I am. (I’ll be 83 next month). Many years ago, the usual clique of white robbed, serious...
"The Night Before..."
Happy New Year!..THIS IS EXTREMELY CLEVER. WONDER WHO WROTE IT Twas the night before Christmas, and up in the tower, The Donald reflected on his newfound power. The conservative masses had come out in force, And...
Insanity
Are you familiar with the name Esteban Santiago? He’s the creep who killed five and injured another eight at the Ft. Lauderdale Florida airport. He has had a couple of mental problems in the past, including...
Putin
First of all, I wish all of you a most happy New Year. Second, I want to assure you that Putin didn’t influence America’s election. That information came from the CIA. (Please consult two previous...
