A recent conversation with a former Lobbyist and current Political Science Professor friend of mine was very informative regarding career GOP politicians.   Here are some interesting facts: - Elected GOP politicians who do nothing to prevent the woke mob political circus are as much to blame as liberal Dems. - It takes 2 terms for members of Congress and Senate to achieve any semblance of bankable influence and that is the “magic point” on their political career timelines where they start to make real money. - Career politicians are motivated solely by the preservation of their income and lifestyle. - The longer a career politician is in office, the greater her/his influence (or impotence) grows via political appointees. – It’s highly unlikely that term limits or voter reform will happen anytime soon. Keep all of that in mind when you vote. The truth at the polls is that there is a greater tendency among GOP voters to blindly vote a Republican ticket, whereas Dem voters tend to be ...

The US Army just announced it's next digital ambassador!  

My Great Uncle Harry was a veteran of WWI.   Whenever I visited him as a child, I would ask him to see his neatly folded uniform in the chest at the foot of his bed.   Despite my prodding, he would never talk about his time in France, other than to say it was “Hell on Earth.”   I offered the question… “Uncle Harry, if it was so bad, why did you go?” His answer has always stuck with me… “because that’s what young American men did.” He was an amazing man. My job puts me in proximity of soldiers on a regular basis. On a recent visit to Ft Campbell, I had lunch with a group of officers ranging from a new 2nd Lieutenant to a Lieutenant Colonel. They talked with concern about the future of the US Army and the ever-growing shortage of new recruits. I asked a young 2nd Lt why she joined, and her response was “to help pay for college and get some experience for later in life.” The Lt Colonel, on the other hand, signed up after 9/11, passionate over the attack on America, proud of ...

Today I read a great quote: “ Never feel sorry for raising dragon slayers in a time where there are actual dragons. ” Encouraging words! Reading words like this quote make us feel empowered, but what are we actually doing to prepare our kids for the dysfunction of our current society? Raising kids is not a passive act. Words like this energize conservative parents but the flip side hides an inconvenient truth; we are the ones allowing these dragons to live, thrive, and be rampant among us. The motions we make…the actions of our elected representatives… are often an impotent attempt toward being dragon tamers, not dragon slayers. Silent complacency is convenient, it allows us to carry on with our day to day lives, but what price are we paying for it? What investment are we making for our children’s future as a result of it? If we are to save our society, we must equip our children for battle. That is a very sad, very necessary notion. Liberal indoctrination is happening across social me...

My post from April 14 titled "LIBERTY, ONCE LOST, IS LOST FOREVER" seemed to be well received with one exception.   This guy in the screenshot represents most liberals I have come across on Twitter.   No intelligent argument, no facts, no truth in their statements.   They get angry and hurl insults.   It's pathetic and comical at the same time. I went to this idiot's profile and his Tweets were a tapestry of complete, baseless lies about Republican politicians and Conservatives. Responses like this make me smile.   To know that my words have irritated a person from the liberal left so much that they can do nothing but post some juvenile, unintelligent response is a compliment.   To all liberals who read my posts I say this; Your lack of morals, honesty, and respect for others is appalling.   Your 'cult' represents the most self-centered, delusional people on the planet.   When you get angry at my words... when you spew vitriol at me... when you ar...

“In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility--I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it--and the glow from that fire can truly light the world. And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country.” Words from former president John F Kennedy’s inaugural address. If these words were used as a litmus test for character, most every Conservative patriot I know would be validated. Like me, if the time came and the need existed, they would sacrifice a great deal, even their lives, to defend liberty and the soul of this nation. We patriots are not asking what our country can do for us. We are not making demands for special rig...
