Agenda 21
Agenda 21. what is it? I’ve seen passing mentions of this topic and have done some initial investigations on the subject and until now, haven’t really thought much about it. This morning Agenda 21 arrived 90 minutes up I-25 in Cheyenne, Wyoming, at a town hall meeting. According to the U.N. Department of [...]

Joseph Goebbels and Obamacare
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all [...]
Wind Power. Just Lots of Hot Air?
President Obama touts at most every chance he can, his “all of the above,” energy policy. However much of the “green energy,” emphasis has not panned out to the satisfaction of the consumers for whom the energy is destined. The founders of America made use of wind power in their sailing vessels, grist mills and [...]
Our Top Priority
The President gave some ideas on how his second term is going to progress, in his weekly remarks. “On Tuesday, America went to the polls. And the message you sent was clear: you voted for action, not politics as usual. You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours. That’s why I’ve invited leaders [...]
Racial Hatred of Obama?
The title/headline is a paraphrase and variant of something uttered by MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, after the third and final presidential debate on Monday night. I have seen this blanket statement previously in passing during the Obama presidency and really haven’t given it much thought. I’ve not given it much thought as the concept, idea or [...]

The current national average is $3.73 for regular unleaded, while this time last year the price was $3.46/gal. Checking the historical record, during the week that President Obama took office the price of [...]
Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics
It’s Presidential election season and the phrase, “Lies, damned lies, and statistics,” seems just so appropriate. This favorite phrase came into play recently in Denver at the first of the Presidential Debates. The President stated during the debate that only 3 percent of small businesses would pay higher rates under his plan. The President figures [...]
The Ivy Covered Walls of Higher Education
I don’t remember if my College had ivy covered walls and I’ll assert that in the larger scheme of things, whether it did or not really would not have impacted my time spent learning. There has been plenty of talk about college students and teachers in the current political discourse, and just how does that [...]
Where are the Coattails?
In politics a successful politician who can help get others from the party elected simply by association is said to have coattails. In the 2008 election President Obama was given credit for helping to elect Democrats in many state and local elections after local officials and candidates eagerly joined Obama at every event and did [...]
