My wife to a yard sale recently, in which items from a deceased friend’s estate were being offered for sale, she purchased a little book of poems for fifty cents, brought it to me and said, “This is how much I love you.” Truth of the matter is, it’s a great little book, for it…

Inch by Inch and Bit by Bit we are losing our freedom. From Valley Forge, to San Juan Hill, to Argon Forest, to the beachheads of Normady, to Pork Chop Hill, to the rice patties of Vietnam, to the streets of Iraq, and to the mountains of Afghanistan, young Americans-both men and women, have shed…

Are you sure you want national health care? What is it? National health care is one example of the socially elite’s attempt to turn America into a socialistic country and strip people of their individual rights to manage their own health care.

These statistics have changed very little in recent years. Each new administration in the state’s capital tackle the problem by adding more required courses for high school students, which…

Generally speaking, communities do not corrupt a nation; instead, the nation corrupts communities.  As a nation goes, so do the communities.  Television has been a corrupting power.  So has many of the other means of modern communications.  Without doubt, though, government from D.C. on down to the local courthouse and even the city hall has…
