Unity Now!

I’m sure everyone remembers Frank Costanza from Seinfeld.  Frank was someone who could never be accused of repressing his anger.  He spent years, if not decades, screaming and berating pretty much everyone about everything.  In one episode (S09E03), Frank’s doctor gave him a relaxation tape that instructed him to say

Weaponized Hatred

The Democrats and media have spent nearly five years spreading misinformation about President Trump.  The message repeated over and over is that he colluded with the Russians to steal the 2016 election.  Oh yeah, he’s apparently a racist too.  Those would be horrible things if they were true.  But they’re

Alarm Clocks and Election Fraud

In London, back in the 1800’s, there was an occupation known as a “knocker-upper”.  The job of the knocker-upper was to go from house to house in the early morning and wake up their clients.  This was back when alarm clocks were really expensive and not reliable enough to count

Election Flawed

Voter fraud is all well and good, if you want to impact an election in a small way.  But, if you want to steal an election, you’re going to have to commit election fraud.  Voter fraud committed on a huge scale is election fraud.  But, to be successful, you need

Unacceptable Behavior

When I was a little kid, I had two brothers and three sisters.  One of us, I can’t remember which, had received as a gift one of those paddle thingies with the elastic band and a rubber ball attached.  The life expectancy that toy wasn’t great, so the ball was

Dark Soul

I recently saw/noticed the sign on the front of Joe Biden’s podium.  The sign said, “BATTLE for the SOUL of the NATION”. It struck me odd that the Biden campaign would have the audacity to put the focus on the word “soul”.  Whoever approved the use of that slogan should
