Having a serious wall makes a serious statement that law has meaning in the United States. Symbolism matters. Deterrence matters. We shouldn't tolerate people illegally breaking into our country any more than an individual would tolerate a break-in of their home. Would anyone of us allow...

Be assured, Trump will undergo scrutiny the likes of which no candidate has seen. BTW, Trump's mother was born in Scotland. Donald Trump, the son of an immigrant. How cool is that!!

As a lifelong observer of American politics, it appears to me that Donald Trump is connecting with a wide swath of voters. There is no one on the political scene who can stop Trump's growing popularity and the press are frustrated with themselves for their failure to take Trump down. Trump is...

My younger brother works in management at a coal processing plant in Kentucky. He says the coal industry is in the most dire situation he has seen in his 30 years in the business. Lots of companies have filed bankruptcy and many more are looking to sell their holdings. Obama has kept his word...

Kentucky has just begun issuing genderless marriage licenses to all applicants. The words "bride" and "groom" are gone. Now the license asks for names of "first party" and "second party." We were told passage of homosexual marriage would have zero effect on traditional marriage. Why has the...

As reported by another local TV station, the turnout for this veteran was much larger than anticipated. Where are the young people in attendance? http://www.wkyt.com/news/state/headlines/321767502.html

I have made less than flattering remarks about Obama(and his Missus), Bill Clinton(and his Missus). Al Gore, Eric Holder. Colin Powell, Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Robert Gates, Bradley Manning/Chelsea Manning, Bruce Jenner/Kait Jenner, Lois Lerner, Unplanned Parenthood, Bart Giamatti, SCOTUS...

I cannot reply in Soapbox this morning. ???

As I recall, Gore couldn't carry his home state of Tennessee last time he ran for office.

This happened today. Hundreds of strangers poured out on an August day at Camp Nelson National Cemetery to show support for an unclaimed Vietnam veteran. For all the nights our veterans stood watch alone, they deserve at a minimum to receive an honorable funeral service...

Here is Camp Nelson National Cemetery as seen from an aerial view on the Fourth of July. My wife and I find it hard to walk these grounds without being shaken. Beautiful and somber. In this instance and at this location, the VA is doing something well. video:

Doing some research on Camp Nelson National Cemetery, just south of Lexington, KY, I happened across this video. Powerful words from a blessed man with a blessed family. video:

Cancer is the cruelest thief.

Time for another Hillary fainting spell. That and amnesia have been her fallback positions over the years.

The political media and pundits are obsessed with Trump. Probably because he doesn't follow their playbook, doesn't court their favor nor bow to their altar. Trump isn't subject to the media's whims. He is somewhat outside their control and this is most objectionable. The media lose a...

Nice logo. Strikes a patriotic theme. Suggestive of the Minuteman image from the Revolutionary era.

What is Trump's view toward women? Does he have a view that applies to all women equally? Is his view toward adversarial women any different than his view toward adversarial men? Hillary Clinton will portray any Republican male who garners the GOP nomination as sexist, you can bet on that...

I haven't followed Trump very closely, but it appears to me Trump is equally tough with men and women alike. What seems a little different about Trump is he refuses to treat all women with the special deference political correctness demands. Trump behaves as a gentleman until provoked. Then...

Here's a conversation starter: we, law-abiding gun owners, aren't surrendering our guns. Too many people, mostly under age 40, would kill an innocent person to buy their next drug fix. There is a massive shift away from respect for law and order, away from respect for life itself, among our...

If Planned Parenthood is so desperate for money, why don't they create their own TV reality show? Call it "Chop Shop." Enterprising young producers could initiate on-line bidding for custom orders. Free shipping with dry ice. Orders delivered in a nondescript. unmarked box to avoid awkward...
