Ragman... what should be done with those who refuse to be employed?

Moot.... presuming LDB voted for Romney, his vote absolutely counted as Romney secured all of the Texas electoral votes. All any voter can do in any presidential election is help ensure their home state's electoral votes accrue to their candidate. A presidential election is actually 50 state...

The national Republican Party has become a real disappointment for me. There just doesn't seem to be any real fight in them lately. The Republican Establishment entrenched in Washington stinks on ice. I cannot think of one prominent GOP incumbent who is genuinely trying to advance the...

Tens of millions of Americans have opted out of working for a living. Welfare is a career choice available to just about everyone. Many have concluded welfare is preferable to working. It is the path of least resistance. A shrewd welfare recipient will manage to snag free income, free food...

I spend more time these days searching for the reasons our society has gone so far astray from the virtues of work, industry and self-reliance. For too many people, there's no pride and no shame. The modern welfare state cares for many able-bodied people from cradle to grave. We need to...

400 years ago, in the early settlement of Jamestown, Virginia Capt John Smith declared those who refused to work would not eat. Would any American politician take such a clear stand today?

Conservatives and libertarians aren't the same philosophically, though closely related on economic issues. Libertarians don't seem to care much about social issues and that's where they lose me. Social issues define what a society will be. No society can exist without social parameters...

Conservatives, like myself, have no political home at present. The Republican Party serves no further purpose except to facilitate whatever the Democrats are selling. Excuse me, I want my country back.

I now consider myself to be a political dissident. This shift in my political thinking has been a long time coming. I no longer trust, like or believe in our Federal government. Nor do I believe either of the 2 major political parties intend to address problems in a serious way. The...

Secession makes for strange bedfellows.

This man has a following: Ron Paul: By clicking on this link you can read Ron Paul's most recent thoughts on secession.

Clearly, our government is sick. Terminally ill, even. Our federal government is analagous to a Stage 3 cancer patient in complete denial and refusing treatment. Birth, growth, maturity, decline and death. Nations and governments have a life cycle, too.

When the youth eventually lose faith with government, then change happens. Old folks won't take to the streets. When our younger generation realizes what has been done to them in the name of government, by the Federal government, it will be a time of profound revolution. That doesn't mean a...

There's a time coming when the Federal government will be hated and despised above all other things. From East to West, from North to South. Our Federal government is devouring everything standing in its way. It's dehumanizing.

In the Age of Obama, truth is largely irrelevant. Lies of monstrous dimensions were told to pass Obamacare. No one cares. Lies surround the Fast and Furious guns-to-Mexico scandal. No one cares. The developing Benghazi scandal is covered in presidential lies. No one cares. Well, at...

People died. Obama lied.

Keep chuckling, Northern Dude. This is the same condescension which led to one tragic split. Two predictions: (1) secession will never be placed on a ballot. (2) The United States will not always remain as currently configured.

Secession is never going to be allowed by the Federal government. Never. And they dare not put it to a vote. What is more likely is a breakaway movement which doesn't seek permission from our masters in Washington, it justs happens suddenly in a fortuitous moment of national crisis. Much...

Until this story broke, I assumed David Petraeus was pretty much a straight arrow. Now, any testimony he might give comes under a cloud of controversy. We can't be sure he will testify truthfully or fully. Nearly every aspect of the Benghazi terrorist attack and the subsequent stonewalling by...
