Obama, Liberalism, and Black Christians

January 27, 2012

I continue to be amazed at the ignorance and neglect of philosophy, history and the Constitution that I encounter in most discussions with liberals. Liberals, who are by no means lacking in intellect, seem to have no philosophical moorings, and no desire to learn from history. Their arguments are driven by emotion, usually evoking a […]

Immigration Reform: The Impact on Low Income Americans

December 30, 2011

I have had the wonderful privilege to develop a friendship with a fellow conservative activist over the past couple of years, Stacy Swimp. Stacy and I have been trading posts on Facebook regarding the Lincoln Club immigration reform policy.  Stacy has brought a highly valid concern that I believe needs to be addressed, specifically what […]

Voter ID Laws and “The Assault on Voter Rights”

December 27, 2011

It seems with each passing day I hear an even more ridiculous charge of why the current wave of state voter initiatives is an assault on voter rights. I have an Obama-loving, Afro-centric, liberal progressive university professor on Facebook that I correspond with who is absolutely positive that the Voter ID laws are specifically intended […]

Follow Up to “Color vs. Competence”

September 4, 2011

I received some really great feedback from my last post, but wanted to follow up on a couple of negative comments, as well as acknowledge some excellent commentary from one of my Facebook friends, Joyce. I will start with the negative and then get to Joyce’s comments. One of the comments was that I was […]

Color vs. Competence

September 3, 2011

Well, you can probably guess where I’m going in this piece. It seems no matter how poorly President Obama’s economic policies play out, and no matter how bad the economy gets, he is not held accountable by those who are simply happy to have a black president. Whether it is on Facebook arguing with my […]

The Sports and Entertainment Stars Economic Recovery Plan

July 26, 2011

It is interesting that President Obama feels the solution to our economic problems is to tax “millionaires and billionaires” and “private jet owners.” In the interest of brevity, no doubt he could leave out the private jet owners because I can’t imagine they are not entirely included in the former group. I certainly don’t have […]

Obama Just Loves to Give (Your Money)

July 17, 2011

Let me say from the outset that I don’t care what President Obama does with his own money, as it is completely none of my concern. What is of my concern is when he decides what he wants to do with my money as well as the money of other American people. When his first […]

The Congressional Black Caucus Wants You (To Have a Job)

July 10, 2011

You have got to love the following headline: “Black Caucus demands immediate action on jobs.” This is typical of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), which is a group of people who make a lot of demands but don’t seem to actually do anything useful themselves. Well, if you aren’t actually going to do something, then […]

California Bill Forces Celebration of Gay Contributions on Children

July 9, 2011

Though it didn’t appear to happen much, even former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger had his moments of moral and political clarity. He struck down a law in 2006 that would have prohibited any negative portrayal of homosexuals in textbooks and other instructional materials. And now it is time for Governor Jerry Brown to strike down a […]

Independence Day Is For Black People Too

July 4, 2011

Special thanks to my good friend Holly Williamson, who turned me on to a recent article penned by Dr. Boyce Watkins, a professor at Syracuse University. The title of Mr. Watkins article is No Independence Day for Black People, and is as telling about the attitude of many highly successful black people as it is […]
