The GOP continues to live up to their name – Great Obstructionist Party!!  True conservatism has been left by the roadside as the MAGA Republicans under the direction of Trump have usurped control of the party and are more interested in blocking, obstructing, impeaching, investigating, generating sound bites for right-wing media and, undermining democratic processes… Continue reading Feb. 2, 2024

Why is it that, by and large, women seem to be the only ones capable of standing up to Donald Trump or invoking fear in him? It is really a fascinating phenomenon. Clearly, most of the males in the Republican party have been emasculated by Donald Trump and follow him around and do his bidding… Continue reading Feb. 1, 2024

A while back I posted a column in which I suggested that the current Republican party should more appropriately adopt the hippopotamus rather than the elephant as their symbol and hence forth be known as ‘hippocrats,’ or ‘hypocrats’, if you prefer, given their ongoing penchant for hypocrisy in virtually everything they do.  They claim to… Continue reading Jan. 30, 2024

The Oklahoma GOP voted on and approved a resolution over the weekend to condemn and censure the senior senator from Oklahoma, James Lankford, for his role in the bipartisan border negotiations. They called on Senator Lankford to “cease and desist” and said they would withhold support for him until he ends negotiations. 1 I have… Continue reading Jan. 29, 2024

It would be interesting to have the Republicans who are so zealously supporting Trump explain to their children, especially their daughters, how they can continue to back a man who has been convicted of sexual assault. That is a fact. There was a trial when Trump and his attorneys were able to argue their case… Continue reading Jan. 27, 2024

If there was ever an example of Trump caring more about Trump than the United States of America and how most Republicans in Congress have become spineless sycophants, the current issues surrounding the bill to provide border security and aid to Ukraine is it. A bi-partisan group in Congress has been working for months to… Continue reading Jan.26, 2024

Iowans, not unexpectedly, just made a mockery of the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law. Entrance polls in Iowa reveal that a majority of Trump supporters don’t believe Biden legitimately won the 2020 election. Of course, we all know that is BS because to date, after over sixty lawsuits, no one has been able… Continue reading Jan. 16, 2024

I’m going to cheat a bit this morning. I’m simply going to pass along some comments that come from the National Review, a magazine that has been a standard bearer for conservatism in America since its founding in 1955 by William F. Buckley Jr. They have dedicated their latest issue to try to convince people… Continue reading Jan. 12, 2024

There are many reasons why Trump is unfit to be president of the United States. There are his numerous legal woes and his two impeachments and all of that should surely disqualify him from ever going anywhere near the White House again. However, one of the things I find most pathetic about Trump is the… Continue reading Jan. 11, 2024
