The Non-War Against ISIL and the Diversionary Fight Against Ebola

– by the editors of the Patriot Post – Obama is putting “boots on the ground,” but in Africa, not the Middle East – more on that political diversion in a moment.

The Democrat’s Richard Nixon

Many may not remember Richard Nixon but I do. I voted for the man and it resulted in my disillusion with the Republican Party. The Democrat’s never seem to have a guy like Nixon.

As I read about IS (whom we all pray will soon be WASWAS) I often think something is missing, especially from our governments. And there is, Elizabeth Scalia The Anchoress, has named it accurately, and well, as usual.

Stop Complaining; What Should The President Do?

Our Prez may look helpless to a lot of his critics just now because he is. And a lot of those critics have their own irons in the fire. Russia’s present forced annexation of Ukraine isn’t President Obama’s doing and what do we expect him to do about it? Invade Russia? His economic sanctions are…… Continue reading Stop Complaining; What Should The President Do?

Among Other Penned Orders

The current President seems to enjoying making law by executive order and memos. Some things he does by pen do seem to create problems instead of resulting in effective and intelligent management of the nation. Governor Perry of Texas and over thirty Republicans have called for the President to resend his Deferred Action Plan for…… Continue reading Among Other Penned Orders

Christian/National Policy

There is just something about this current Administration that makes you shake your head in wonderment. Their effort to change America from any Christian influence to some other type of influence is amazing.

Obama: “The Iraqis Have To Solve Their Own Problems.” (Now, Does He Mean That?)

As our Fearless Leader cannot be believed in his public statements, (“You can keep your doctor”) we cannot be certain, but to the extent that his public statement represents his actual intentions, we applaud President Obama’s statement on the mess that is Iraq. He just saud, if we have it straight, “Iraq must solve its…… Continue reading Obama: “The Iraqis Have To Solve Their Own Problems.” (Now, Does He Mean That?)

BFFs, adversaries on the same side, or mortal enemies prepared to fight to the death?

Ukraine! Ukraine! (How Many Countries Is That, Anyway?)

How Great Is That?

Russia, with its multiple languages and cultures, is an empire; empires are held together with force and as we saw when the Soviets failed, tend to come apart. Ukraine, which dates from a Scandinavian/Slavic construction called “Kievan Rus” has been a large piece of that empire for a long time, though the Ukrainians speak their…… Continue reading Ukraine! Ukraine! (How Many Countries Is That, Anyway?)

The Nuclear Weapons Illusion In Doctor Strangelove’s World

Nuclear weapons management in today’s world is a two-level political illusion; one level is various tacit and formal agreements between states and the other is those states’ public pronouncements. Neither matches the actual events in the real world; they are political games often aimed at obscuring the reality. Presently, attention is focused upon Iran, whose…… Continue reading The Nuclear Weapons Illusion In Doctor Strangelove’s World

Why America Is Saying ‘No’

Peggy Noonan has a post up at the Wall Street Journal. None of you are going to be surprised that I disagree often and vehemently with her.

Closed for Business

You know, I’m becoming an old man, and when I refer to myself as such,  Jess always tells me nonsense but, since she is on retreat for the moment I can say it. But the point is this, I look out through eyes that have measured every President since Johnson, and remember Ike and JFK…… Continue reading Closed for Business

“Ich bin ein dummkopf” Former aide to Margaret Thatcher, Nile Gardiner, who is now a foreign affairs analyst and political commentator, wasn’t all that fond of Obama’s Berlin speech last Wednesday.

Syria

When I was young there was a story about a Polish colonel who was asked what he would do if his regiment got caught between the German and Russian armies. His answer was, “Attack in both directions and die gloriously“. That pretty well sums up the situation in Syria these days. There’s a war of sorts going on, not…… Continue reading Syria
