I spent the better part of Earth Day pounding down the symptoms of a nasty little cold with all the chemicals I could legally and prudently ingest.
Needless to say, I have recently taken to embracing Earth Day by championing my passion for the planet’s greatest resource. I wish not to diminish the efforts all the [...]

OK, I have to admit I’ve fallen for it. I can’t help it.
I’m watching Matt Lauer interview the president on NBC’s Super Bowl pre-game show.
Now, I’m going to stand my political ground everywhere I think I should. I refuse to compromise a principle for any reason. That being said…
Am I crazy that you can’t help but [...]

Yeah.
Watch this and tell me you’re not a little inspired. I had to hold back tears as I watched this at school.

Tim Reid played Venus Flytrap on the classic sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati. He is also a local here in God’s country, and co-founded New Millennium Studios, Virginia’s first full-service movie studio complex. I have actually toured the property, and met his lovely wife, Daphne.
In the late ’60s, Tim teamed up with Tom Dreesen to be, [...]

Yes, and Libertarianism is the Utopia of the Conservative.
That being said, I prefer straight talk.
It has been my observation, however, that Political Correctness has led us to an arena where facts and their open interpretation via rigorous academic exercise have to be obscured so as not to offend. You may get labeled if you push [...]

The following was compiled by Andy McCarthy and posted on The Corner at National Review Online on April 20, 2007. All of these quotes come from official federal record, either from US Supreme Court cases or Senate hearings. I don’t think anything I could say would add to the testimony. I could not finish it [...]

When I, in polite salutation, choose to ask someone how they are faring, I usually ask “How are you doing?” or “How are you today?”
We all know the answer is always supposed to be “fine” or “well.” When someone asks me, I generally respond with “I’m doing well, and how about you?”

It was a sight to behold.
My wife and I were driving up I-95 and coming towards us, with a NYPD police escort (hundreds of miles south of NYC), were a line of about 35 charter busses. We are almost sure these busses were headed to New Orleans. There was a NYPD command center truck with [...]

Matthew 25:40b Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
A few weeks ago, my family and I were driving through Tennessee visiting family. Throughout the day we were [...]
