Publisher's Note - Bob Hope tried to join the military but was told he could do more to help in another way.

We thought they were coming in just to help balance the voting. Wonder still why all those young (military age) men without children or wives are taking on the task of traveling all those miles posing as refugees . But don't worry. All they want to do is ruin your way of life and/or kill you. Just for fun, let's do the math: 52 tons of guns & ammo. Let's just say that 10 tons or 20,000 pounds is ammo. That leaves 42 tons or 84,000 pounds of automatic weapons. Let's guess that an automatic... Full story

The term "Roger that" is a widespread term for confirmation, either between truckers on their CB radios, kids playing back and forth with walkie-talkies, or even face to face. But it's easy to adopt the phrase and understand what it means without ever really knowing where it came from. So here's a (very) brief history for your edification. "Roger" comes from the phonetic alphabet used by military and aviation personnel during WWII, when the use of two-way radios became a main form of... Full story

The dog participated in 12 air and sea rescue and photo reconnaissance missions. During these operations, Smokey was often under fire in a... Full story
Like someone once said, "you just can't make this idiocy up". Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert. Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night." So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job. Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies. Then Congress said, "... Full story
Publisher's Note - Reading this from Bill O'Reilly reminded me of how often I have felt frustrated because as he says below "millions of Americans simply don't care".

Difficult Times By: Bill O'Reilly January 30, 2024 As the presidential election of 2024 begins to unfold, America finds itself in a bad place. Yes, political leadership is dubious, but it is a profound lack of trust that is truly eroding the... Full story
From Tim Rafferty [TimRafferty@cox.net] Did you know that in 2021 the bureaucrats at the CDC (Center for Disease Control) claimed that there were 21,000 firearms related fatalities in the US? After making this statement, the CDC soon thereafter declared that the fabricated term, "gun violence" (its people violence stupid) is now a health-related issue, thus justifying their position to jump into the anti-gun frenzy. Okay....so why is a government agency tasked with identifying and eradicating... Full story

This was sent to us by one of our readers. I used to think I was pretty much just a regular person, but I was born white, into a two-parent household which now, whether I like it or not, makes me privileged, a racist and responsible for slavery. I am a fiscal and moral conservative, which by today's standards, makes me a fascist because I plan, budget and support myself. I went to school for 19 years and have always held a job. But I now find out that I am not here because I earned it, but... Full story

Note - This is one of the many emails we receive. As an attorney, I hesitated to forward this as it can be considered to be an indictment against my profession. But I believe there is much truth to the article below. Very thought provoking. Lawyers are adversarial and are trained to try to win at all costs. It may work in litigation but does not work well when governing our nation. Trying to win at any costs creates the polarization and hatred that now fills our country and leaves no room for...
