  • Car-a-Lago

    It was in my garage, next to my corvette? And that’s safe? For 6 years or more since he left office in 2017? The term “Car-a-Lago” was coined by Jesse Watters of FoxNews. I love the term because it draws several obvious parallels to the Mar-a-Lago raids by the FBI on 8 Aug 2022, just…

  • Religion in Conservatism

    This topic has concerned me a great deal in the last few days, so please bear with me for a minute. Three things happened that triggered this… As a Christian, I began wondering how far Christianity had pushed into conservatism, and what affect it was having. Many of you will condemn me for saying so,…

  • Cordial Discussion

    I’m going to get straight to the point… Cordial discussion is dead in our society. There are examples all around us, mostly in our daily lives with people we speak with on a regular basis. It is hard to discuss anything that includes someone’s opinion without it igniting discord, the opposite of cordiality. Cordial is…

  • Consistent Conservatism

    In several different recent discussions, the concept of consistency came up in regards to my conservatism. Questions came up like, “should conservatives be consistent in their values and actions?” The short answer is “YES!” But has it been so in recent years?

  • Why an Omnibus?

    Had a short discussion with a friend yesterday who suggested that the $1.7 Trillion Omnibus Bill that just passed congress was essential to prohibit the government from shutting down. Considering my own conservative values on Limited Government and Fiscal Responsibility, I nearly choked on my diet soda. My first thought was how, until the last…

  • Vapor Lock

    Sorry that it’s been a few days since I last wrote here. I’ve had a kind of a “vapor lock” trying to determine what to write next. The problem is not a lack of topics, but a plethora to choose from… So far this week (the last 7 days), we’ve had many stories worthy of…

  • Inquisition or Investigation?

    Was the January 6th Select Committee an investigation or was it an inquisition? That is a question that has bugged me for over a year and a half as the committee continued to dig into the events of January 6th… What’s the difference? To investigate is to carry out a systematic or formal inquiry to…

  • Stop Liberals!

    When you visit the Republican Party website (https://www.gop.com/), try to find a listing of the party’s platform… Go ahead, try… Eventually, if you dig around deep enough, you can find on their site an About Our Party page, where you will see a short paragraph with general values listed once. “Our platform is centered on…

  • Inflation

    About 2 years ago, inflation was just over 1%… Now, it is over 6%. When it all started, pundits and administration officials all said it was “temporary“. However, temporary seems to be in the eye of the beholder. Definitions matter, and lasting more than 2 years with no end in sight does not seem to…

  • Interesting Conversations

    I’ve got a group of friends that discuss all kinds of things on a daily (nearly) basis. One of the topics that regularly comes up is politics, in general. Recently, in creating this blog, I decided to Google for the phrase “core conservative values“. I was shocked at the varied amount of answers… So, I…
