Michelle, Democrats are good at that. They are deft in pointing away from themselves and try to deflect from their unlawful acts and try to draw the attention toward Republican conceived or make believe problems through lies and extortions with loud and unruly voices and acts. A like example of what thay have done and do for the black community. I am amazed at how the black community has stood for the Democrats and blame the Republicans for their problems when in reality the Republicans are the ones that freed them from slavery tried to write laws to make them equal and the Democrats voted against every move so that they can control them. Amazing and the blacks can not see through it. All that they would havee to do is go through the...

What are we doing in getting involved with another country's internal affaires? And bribing them no less! We have no business in being there in the first place.

"Article 1 Section 10 Paragraph 3 - No state shall, without the Concent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, UNLESS ACTUALLY INVADED, OR IN SUCH EMMINENT DANGER AS IT WILL NOT ADMIT OF DELAY." The Constitution of the United States, and Amendment X "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitutionn NOR PROHIBITED BY IT TO THE STATES, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the People." This folks tells me that Arizona is on good grounds for enforcing their law. Public Safety demands it and the federal government does not inhibit the states from enforcing federal law....
If we continue on this path of progressive thinking and political correctness we will sink into oblivion and distain. Why? The taking of one's property whether real or intellectual to redistribute it to the have knots will do immeasurable harm to our gifted individuals who have the talent and knowledge to move this country forward, a gift to many that had made this country so great and prosperous, and whose property freely given benefited everyone, would now be lost. Do you think that the likes of Ben Franklin, Alexander Bell, Thomas Edison, the Wright Brothers, Fulton, Henry Ford, Evinrude, and a slew of other inventors and entrepreneurs would have worked tirelessly over long hours of trial and error until they achieved their goal if...
I wonder where Chavez is going to get the expertise to work those wells? Where is he going to get the spare parts to maintain and repair broken equipment of which is not unusual on those rigs? I believe that in this case he is shooting himself in the foot.
That revelation by Main Street Mama is a practice that still lives to this day. The amazing thing to me is that the men that had taken a reloque of the Reverend Whitefield for they were of the protestant persuasion although some of them could have been or were Roman Catholic. Carrying a Reloque of a Saint, particularly if it was a personal item or first order, have been known to heal the very sick or some other profound miracle that has no other explanation that can be found to acclaim the cure or eventual outcome. In this case it is one more answer in how we won the War of Independence. Keep in mind folks that General George Washington started out with a rag tag militia made up of farmers and ordinary town people. The Continentals took...
I do believe that George Washington and his family had a dedicated pew in Christ's Church in Philadelphia. There is also a chapel built at Valley Forge that has a life size stained glass window in the sanctuary showing GW kneeling and praying in the forrest. I truly believe that he was given the gift of Wisdom from Providence and that was the instrument that won our Liberty from England. How else can one imagine on how we won with a rag tag militia against three highly experianced and trained armies? Sure, the "The King of Prussia" General Baron Wilhelm von Stueban was instrumental in converting farmenrs to soldiers. Then there was the Marque de Laffayette who was instrumental in getting France to supply our effort. But the odds were...
The spin never stops in foggy bottom particularly when it does not fit its agenda. I never doubted that the Russians have spies here no more doubt that we have spies working there as well. I am sure that Russia is not the only country spying on us as well. This is an old profession that goes back to biblical times. Was not the Patriot Nathan Hale who was on a mission for GEN. Washington hanged on orders from a British Corlnel at the age of 15 for spying? When they get caught there is a penalty, evrything from deportation to the hangman's noose, severety depending on the state of the crime, a beligerent at war with us, a terroist at war with us, or even a so called friendly nation. Spying is a neccesary evil to verify the other nations...

Mr. Phillips, Very true that there exist great pride in having one's son join the military. Like you my eldest son joined the Marine Corps, was stationed at MCAS Cherry Point NC. He also served on the USS America, a heavy air craft carrier when it crossed "The Line of death" the Bay of Sidra, Libya and raided Godify's tent. What was amuzing though, as the Soviet Navy was in formed of our arrival, they left the Port of Sidra and headed out to the Mediteraininan Sea, well as the passed our fleet on the way out all of the MARDETS Marine Detachment on the carrier went to the flight deck, manned the rail, and mooned the Russians. I wished that I had been there. My second son joined the US Navy. He was stationed at NAS Oceana VA. He was with...

One fine article Dr. Sowell and some of the fine responces from your the educated readers. Two other folks I enjoy and who are on the mark are Dr. Walter Williams and Dr. Bill Cosby. As pointed out education and hard work is the only way out of slavery (being on the public dole). When the Blacks finally get it in their heads to stop using the race card and blaming their condition on an event that occured 145 years ago when then there is no one alive today that even knows what a plantation looks like let alone having been there and start some serious book learning, finish school, and fine meaningful work, they will earn the respect of the white folks and the race issue will become history. This business of preventing Southern boys to...
