Genes and Racism
During decades of watching both collegiate and professional football, I have seen hundreds of touchdowns scored by black players — but not one extra point kicked by a black player. Is this because blacks are genetically incapable of kicking a football or because racists won’t let blacks kick a football? Most of us would consider […]
The Unseen Wounds and Warriors of War
Post-publication note from Chuck: At the time I wrote the column below, news had not broken about the massive and devastating explosion at the fertilizer plant in West, Texas. Of course, all of my condolences and commendations about the victims and crisis care community in Boston I extend with profound correlations to my own heartbroken […]
President Obama’s Symbiotic Relationship With the Abortion Industry
When I read that President Obama refused to comment on the murder trial of abortion butcher Kermit Gosnell “because it’s an active trial,” I knew immediately he wasn’t being truthful. In fact, the second I heard about Obama’s excuse for dodging the question, I tweeted that ongoing investigations or trials did not preclude his publicly […]
Lessons from Boston and Chechnya
We cannot bring back the stolen lives. We cannot bring back the lost limbs or the lost hearing. And we cannot mitigate the infinite grief of the victims’ loved ones. But there is something we can and must do: We must learn all the lessons we can. Here are some: 1. The gulf between the […]
What next after Boston?
The last time there was a terrorist attack on America, we got the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Administration. Each entity has spent billions to keep us safe, but neither could stop two brothers, Tamerlan, a permanent resident, and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, a newly minted U.S. citizen, who lived in America and, reportedly, […]
Tom Brokaw Blames America for Boston Terror
Tom Brokaw — the liberal elitist who triumphantly crowed “Take this!” at Obama’s first inauguration — weighs in regarding Islam’s latest major attack on the American homeland: Former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw strongly suggested Sunday that America is partly to blame for the gruesome terrorists attacks in Boston, because the young, Muslim men involved […]
Your Non-Plastic Bags Are Killing the Earth, Hippies.
Ah, it’s Earth Day: the day when millions of unwitting schoolchildren across this country will be brainwashed into believing there really are: 50 simple things that can save the Earth from the devastating effects of modern industry, and where high schoolers will be force-fed copies of: An Inconvenient Truth while being excoriated on their rampant embraces of […]
Obama to Fundraise in Texas, But Can’t Find Time To Visit Town Rocked By Fertilizer Plant Explosion
The explosion in West, Texas five days ago was devastating. Fourteen people died, including eleven first responders and over 200 were injured. Homes burned to the ground, survivors are remembering the dead and they’re still pulling corpses from the rubble. If you heard that Barack Obama was going to Texas, you might think he was […]

Your first thought after reading that title is probably something like, “Wait, what?” Then, you realized it was Geraldo Rivera and it started to make more sense. Regrets to my Muslim brothers/sisters. We know how Boston will aggravate life’s friction-Now’s the time forpatience pride & understanding — Geraldo Rivera (@GeraldoRivera) April 22, 2013 Certainly, we […]
Whew! Divide Between Gun Owners And Gun Grabbers Not As Bad As Between Slave/Non-Slave States
Guess which type of state people who believe in the 2nd Amendment would be considered. The Washington Post’s editorial page editor, Fred Hiatt, discusses the Red State/Blue State schism In the week since modest gun control died in the Senate, those of us who don’t think guns make the country safer have been inclined to […]
MSNBC’s Harris-Perry: Hey, The Boston Bombers Being Muslim Is Not Relevant
Yes, the same lady who thinks your kids aren’t yours, and should be fully handed over to The State. (Mediaite) Making the point that the Tsarnaev brothers’ Muslim faith at the moment bears little relevance to the investigation into the brothers’ decision to attack the Boston Marathon last week, MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry observed that […]
The Boston Terrorists were Muslims–Please Forward this to Chris Matthews
I’m not really in the mood to write a column. The reason why I’m in a foul disposition is I just saw the picture, taken a few minutes before the Boston blast, of the Muslim POS, better known as “Suspect #2”, dropping off his backpack filled with a pressure cooker bomb right behind eight-year-old Martin […]
Progressives’ Ultimate Fetish
Progressives can’t help themselves. When a normal person hears of a tragedy, they feel the natural range of emotions — fear, anger, sympathy, etc. But progressives are not normal humans. When they hear news of a tragedy their first thought is “How can this help the cause?” There’s something oddly perverse about this mental defect […]
Boston Bombing and Civil Liberties Violations
Billionaire “Forcing” Climate Change
Churchville,: VA–A Wall Street: billionaire is pledging to spend “whatever it takes” to make manmade global warming the “defining issue of our generation.” Most recently, he sent airplanes with banners over: Boston: that read “Steve Lynch for Oil Evil Empire.”: Lynch, a fellow Democrat and Senate candidate, favors the Keystone pipeline and the jobs it would create.: “The goal […]
At Every Turn, Things Were Spinning out of Control
Chaos. Things seemed to be spinning out of control on many fronts this week. Starting, of course, with the Boston Marathon bombing Monday. The bombers chose a significantly festive time and place for their attack. The marathon is held every year on Patriots Day, the Massachusetts state holiday commemorating the Battles of Lexington and Concord […]
Liberal Professor: We Used “Too Much Force” Capturing Boston Bomber.
Liberal professor Ruth O’Brien from The City University of New York thinks we may have been a little too tough on the Boston Marathon Bomber who was killed by the police. O’Brien, who’s the author of the forthcoming book, Out of Many, One: Obama and the Third American Political Tradition, chided the Boston police for […]
Store Owner May Be Prosecuted For Killing An Armed Robber Who Shot At Him
Hamilton, Ohio — Smail Gueddari was with his sleeping two year old son in the back of his clothing store, Mazagan Urban Ware, when he heard something alarming: His wife was screaming in terror. An armed robber with a piece of black cloth over his face had entered the store, drawn a gun on Gueddari’s […]
Thoughts From the Campus About Gun Control
Who’s squirming harder: The gentleman appearing from 2:24 through 3:03 pronouncing “if guns are outlawed then only outlaws have guns” to be a “weak argument,” but unable to explain his rationale…or me, watching him. Him, I suppose, if I could film my first reaction in the web cam and measure it…I’m probably just slightly wincing. […]
Gun Control Bill FAILS in OBAMA’S LIBERAL HOME STATE
This time around, liberals thought gun control was in the bag. Barack Obama is in the White House, liberals control the Senate, the mainstream media was putting on a full court press and they had a crisis in Aurora that they were determined not to waste. This time, they were going to slam gun control […]
Fish Wrap: Passing Comprehensive Immigration Will Increase Security And Rule Of Law
I’ve been following politics for a long, long time, well before Al Gore’s Internet became a big hit and allowed the average citizen to put their opinion out there, and for the life of me I still don’t understand the serious mental machinations that Liberals go through to come up with mule fritters like this […]
Witnessing the Death of Liberty
“A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.” – Edward R. Murrow Benjamin Franklin warned that a people preferring security over liberty deserves neither. In the aftermath of each attack upon our nation, we have seen this maxim play out with growing restrictions on our God-given constitutional freedoms. There was the USA Patriot […]
The Higher Our Tech, the Ruder We Get
Get this: Social media are making us ruder. According to Reuters, social media users face “an increase in rudeness online with people having no qualms about being less polite virtually than in person.” I think our rudeness began ticking up with the introduction of another technological innovation: the telephone. As phones became commonplace in American […]
The Wit and Wisdom of Will Rogers
Things are mighty heated these days. Tempers are flaring and minds are closed. Here’s the solution: the wit and wisdom of Will Rogers. “The short memory of voters is what keeps our politicians in office.” “We’ve got the best politicians that money can buy.” “A fool and his money are soon elected.” Rogers spoke these […]
Liberal Media Already Knows Marathon Bomber is a ‘Right Winger’
Conservatives are angry that mainstream media liberals have jumped to the uninformed conjecture that the Boston Marathon bombing was committed by a “right winger.” Yes, some conservative media outliers presumed the police report of a Saudi being a “person of interest” means the U.S. should reconsider Muslim immigration, but there’s a world of difference between […]
Stop Me Before I Buy Food
There is no problem too flimsy for California’s nanny lawmakers, as witnessed by the many laws that state solons have proposed to keep constituents from getting free plastic bags at the grocery. Those teensy plastic bags are cheap. They’re lightweight. They’re energy-efficient. People use them a lot, which means that they can end up as […]
Gosnell’s Clinic of Horrors
Did you catch The Rev. Jesse Jackson the other night on CNN demanding a Senate hearing into why regulators never cracked down on that gruesome abortion clinic in Philadelphia? Did you hear Al Sharpton on MSNBC saying that if Dr. Gosnell had been killing white babies in Bryn Mawr, his women’s clinic would have been […]
The Corruption of Big Spending Democrats
Buried in a recent Politico story is a line that reveals the utter corruption of “money in politics.” But not that of money spent electioneering, but that spent by government from the assumed bottomless pockets of the American taxpayer. It is a corruption that has destroyed the Constitution, laid waste the rule of law, perverted […]
The Roofers Union Calls for the Repeal of Obamacare
The United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers supported Obamacare when it was being pushed through, but the law is turning out to be such a disaster that it’s become the first union to call for its repeal. The president of the union, Kinsey Robinson, says he’s concerned that his members may lose their […]
