I’ve seen and heard a lot of discussion in the last several days about Republican state governments and “union-busting.” And polls show that the public at once favors preserving union workers “rights,” even for “collective...

You may have seen a panel discussion of the recent statements of the leaders of Germany, Great Britain and France that multiculturalism had failed their nations. When the moderator appealed to the panel for comment, the...

Recently, intentions have been overridden by circumstance. Starting a day with a few topics in mind, another priority intrudes on plans. I have been posting on the idea and the necessity of nullification, and had a couple...

I have joined with Shirley Spellerberg’s posts calling for dismissal of the idea of a national Constitutional Convention. This and the fact that she was at the center of the 1996 convention fight to have Initiative And...

Sometimes another post pushes a button for a further discussion. Shirley Spellerberg is 100% right about avoiding a constitutional convention. That interest raises a broader question. Do we mistakenly think new federal laws...

There is a particularly significant new development on the health care front, but we should consider where we are in light of passing the 38th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade and the case in Philadelphia of the doctor taken in...

Before I could shift gears from the fantasy of a productive and auspicious state-command society, the talk on Sunday news-ralk television, predictably after the Tucson shooting story has leveled off, turned to gun-control....

I’ve referred to this before, but all expansive governments incline to fascism, the cooperation and solidifying of government and bi business. Include such as Nazi fascism, which some consider “of the right.” But as...

I of course, believe that individuals, families, and communities as close as possible to the patient can, in a free market, best determine and acquire health care services as with so many other items and services. But I...

On his Friday radio program, Dennis Prager looked back to a speech in the 1990’s at Hillsdale College by former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher that is available online. It was the concluding presentation of a...

First, both internationally and domestically, there is so much agitation in the world today, that we proceed with trepidation to political business as usual; events could at anytime render it relatively trivial. But in fact...

First you should understand that I am not involved with international diplomacy or even travel, and see things not from the ground but from the bird’s eye perspective of mass-communications and history. But many media...

In my last post, I again made reference to the idea that states ought to refuse to comply with unconstitutional federal directives. There is affirmation for such nullification in the founding era, explicitly discussed in...

TexasGOPVote, and Bob Price specifically, was cited by Michael Medved on his radio program Friday afternoon. Unfortunately, it was not in a complimentary context. Medved is philosophically pretty conservative, elaborating...

In Obama’s State Of The Union Speech, he said we all share the same ideals. Well, not exactly. We may all want opportunity, equality, and prosperity for everyone; may even believe we want constitutionality. But achieving...

Addendum On this topic as a note to my post on Obamacare yesterday: Oklahoma announced today that it will file its own suit following its adoption of an amendment to the state constitution disallowing...

Once when asked how he churned out 3 columns a week, William F. Buckley famously replied something to the effect that, the world reliably annoys him 3 times a week. I have been writing on a Blog or email list for about 15...

Critics, obviously mostly Democrats, say it’s empty grandstanding, but House Republicans plan to vote for an outright repeal of Obamacare in the coming legislative days. It’s called posturing because if The Senate doesn’t...

I was at best a late baby boomer, although my wife says I’m older than I should be. But as I saw one of them today, I thought of the momentous national moments of my lifetime and found clips of them on YouTube.

Last week, current House Democrats rejected Senate Republicans’ agreement with Obama to extend ALL current tax rates (I don’t refer to “Bush Tax cuts” over 9 years later because…I’m not an idiot!) and there was talk of not...
