We are being told Barack Hussein Obama will surround himself with children tomorrow as he pushes for change on gun control issues. The shameless exploitation of children for political purposes is an old tradition. Little Stuart Lockwood didn't want to play along in 1990. Good for him...

AMonger... what I see happening in Jackson County, KY is a microcosm, a tiny cell, of a nascent grassroots movement reacting to a possible Federal move against 2nd Amendment rights. Notice these citizens are meeting with their Sheriff. Scenes similar to this are likely playing out in many...

Can you believe this? The US Federal government is considering a proposal to install pay-toilets at over 20,000 govt facilities inside the US. Supposedly, each unit will cost 25 cents to gain access, 25 cents for tissue paper and 25 cents to exit. Dollar bill change machines will be...

As an educational resource, Youtube is tremendous. Teachers can pull clips of historical events and play video to the classroom. We live in the video age; hardly anyone bothers to read books anymore. Here's the Hindenburg disaster from 1937: Hindenburg disaster - YouTube

I believe the inaugural festivities are privately funded through corporate sponorship and personal donations.

I suspect the political elites like the pageantry of huge ceremonies. It's a nod to vanity and narcissism. Why not have a modest ceremony? Must every inaugural be bigger and more grand than the one before?

The Appalachian section of Kentucky has some customs peculiar to the region. Alcohol and guns do not mix well. They will not give up their guns, so to the extent possible, booze is discouraged.

What's strange about it?? A sheriff in Kentucky is the highest ranking ELECTED law enforcement officer within his jurisdiction. Appointed government officials, such as agents of the ATF, are supposed to be subservient to elected officials. Sheriff Peyman is saying if the Federal appointees...

After a little more digging, I found a video from yesterday where Sheriff Peyman is explaining his thoughts on gun control. The guy is pretty solid on 2nd admendment rights. video: Kentucky Sheriff Denny Peyman upholds the 2nd Ammendment - YouTube Then there is this...

In 1986 I would put away my work or studies and watch "Crime Story" every week. The opening theme music by Del Shannon was a perfect match for the gritty police drama. Crime Story Opening Theme - YouTube

Conservatives are losing on every front, it seems. The current state of affairs is so bad neither party can fix things. We are beyond conventional means and remedies. Americans are going to need a do-over. A "do-over" implies fundamental transformation even Barack Obama won't touch...

I cannot find a rational basis for optimism. Our government is nearly nonfunctional and segments of our society are at each other's throats. Folks under 40 years old are royally screwed. For many of them, the American Dream is permanently unattainable. Labor is cheap, leaving little...

Never? That's an absolute term. What happens when the Feds can no longer give away free stuff?

Youtube is becoming an invaluable repository of video recorded American history and Americana.

Found this story at Dailycaller.com where Sean Hannity is starting to give voice to a growing sentiment of frustrated Americans. States rights advocates have shared this view for some time now. Hannity foresees states leaving union if federal government continues 'radicalized, abusive'...

I am hoping Pete's induction is not posthumously granted. He was and is a great ambassador of baseball. How many hits or times-at-bat does Selig have? How many times did Giamatti bring 50,000 people to a wild standing ovation? Put Pete to a vote.
