Until Tucker Carlson of Fox News resurrected her on this date (Feb 22, 2021) to discuss a book she wrote in 2007, it must have been, what, 5, 10, maybe 15 years since I heard or thought about Naomi Wolf. Ironically, Ms. Wolf originally rose to prominence at a time when Rush Limbaugh was in his meteoric ascendance on Talk Radio, and as I recall he had plenty to say about her "femi-nazi" ways.  This post is not about Rush Limbaugh, but I do wonder if he read Ms. Wolf's "The End of America: A Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot" and, if so, how he received it when it was written, and if, within the past 14 years, he reflected on what she wrote. I can imagine that many conservatives would have rejected out of hand anything she wrote because of her liberal feminist leanings. At the time, the book probably was written off by many as merely Bush-bashing or conservative hating. But after hearing her on Mr. Carlson's show I purchased the e-book version and immediat...

"By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”John 13:35 There can be no unity among a people when the vast majority of that people are idolatrous, hating each other because they first hated God. Anyone who says he wants peace and unity and does not love God and his enemies is a liar, and the truth is not in him. We are at war with one another because we cannot escape our own natures, and our nature informs us that if we want something and we cannot obtain it by other means, we should take it by force. Rather than asking God for it, we destroy others and flaunt God's commandments to obtain it. That goes for power and prestige as much as it does for material possessions.  . . .those who represent us in the in national, state and municipal legislatures have no basis for uniting us if they themselves are at enmity with God and with one another. Do we think we can have unity without repentance? Do we think it is our neighbor, or our ene...

  My kids and grand-kids understand the economy perfectly well. What would really be great would be to get these into the hands of the kiddies in our #KinderCongress . Do your kids understand the big differences between capitalism and socialsim? We've put together a new Kids Guide to...   Posted by The Kids Guide on  Wednesday, February 3, 2021

 For I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons to the third and fourth generation of those that hate me, and showing mercy to thousands of those that love Me and keep My commandments. Deuteronomy 5:8-10  Today, a generation is generally considered to be 20 to 30 years. Let's take the average and call a generation 25 years. Let's also use the "fourth generation" from the Bible verse above. Now we have a reasonable argument that the iniquities of one generation are visited upon their offspring for the next 100 years (4x25). A Century Ago What was happening in the United States 100 years ago, in the years between 1910 to 1920? There was anarchy and rioting that led to injuries and deaths. Identity politics ruled the day. There was tremendous class-envy. The lower classes were rebelling against the wealthy class. Labor hated capital. Capital derided labor for not realizing that they had a good thing in capitalism. Socialism w...

 When I googled ("white supremacist" definition) one of the search results returned was this: a person who believes that white people constitute a superior race and should therefore dominate society, typically to the exclusion or detriment of other racial and ethnic groups, in particular black or Jewish people. usage example: "an avowed white supremacist" (from Oxford Languages) Every English-language lexicon website  had a similar definition (merriam-webster, dictionary.com, wikipedia, thefreedictionary.com, learnersdictionary.com, wiktionary, vocabulary.com, and the list goes on). Most of the the definitions were exactly the same as quoted above, or very close to it.  Interestingly, in my second search when I substituted "black," "brown," and "yellow" for "white," there were no results. Zero. Zilch. Nada. And not only were no definitions returned in my alternative searches, unlike with my "white supremacist" search...

 In the November, 1918 edition of Factory: The Magazine of Management, we found this short blurb on a publication an unnamed employer used to keep its employees better informed about the Spanish Influenza pandemic. Below the short article, we have included a Spanish Flu-related advertisement for your amusement. HELPING KEEP WORKERS HEALTHY WHEN the Spanish influenza was just getting a start in the plant of one middle-western company, a special sheet called “Flue News," was distributed to all of the workers. This, written in a semi-humorous style so that it would be read, told the workers how to take care of themselves so as not to get sick, how to ward off the disease, and what to do if they took it. Of course it is impossible to state how much good this has done but the percentage of workers sick has been relatively low.

Nancy Pelosi, Hag of the House If you want to survive in Nancy Pelosi's America, you might want to learn this new Pledge of Allegiance. (I wanted to say "Joe Biden's America," but no one seriously thinks he is in charge of the country.) "I pledge allegiance to the Hag of the United States of America, and to the socialist state for which she stands, one nation free from God, with liberty and justice for an elite few." "pledge": noun-a solemn promise or agreement to do or refrain from doing something. "allegiance": loyalty or commitment of a subordinate to a superior or of an individual to a group or cause.
