Removing Historical Statues & Monuments Helps Who? How? - 8/19/17

A vital secret of successful living is moving on from the past, no matter how horrible, evil, unjust, or immoral that past was.  Some of the best ways to live successfully is to  avoid financial dependence on the largesse of government or charity, become a great spouse and a great parent, find faith, and develop a circle of like-minded friends. This works for those born with a silver spoon in their mouths just as it does for those who have endured great hardship, even pain in their pasts. But the best way to sabotage a life is to dwell on past evils as explanations and excuses for one’s victimhood. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

8/11/17 - The Ten Reasons That Made Me Support Donald Trump Since Early 2016

I have two dear friends (whose names I mention in the show) each of whom hosts a national radio show and each of whom were ‘Never-Trumpers’.  I didn’t understand them then. I don’t understand them now.  But they are both good and honorable men.  I decided to come up with ten truths that they couldn’t contradict and which would leave them both incapable of explaining satisfactorily why they voted against President Trump.

Most of what the sick,  evil  and twisted denizens  of the Democratic Party claimed about Pres. Trump weren’t true.  Here are ten things about the President that are indeed true. One of them is while occasionally really bad men do have great kids, those great kids never retain relationships with their bad fathers.  When you see great kids remaining close to their dads, you’d be making a big mistake writing off those dads as jerks.  They aren’t.  Listen for the remaining nine Trump truths.

8/5/17 Western Civilization is NOT Racist - It's Everyone's Best Hope!

President Trump defended the West and was reviled as a racist.  That slur is nothing but  a meaningless bludgeon. Can’t tell the difference between the West and the Rest?  Just try using a public bathroom in Bahawalpur and then do the same in Boston. Still not sure?  Okay, time to get dramatic.  Break your leg on the street in Lagos, and then do the same (the other leg) in London.  Getting the idea?  Just try buying a home or starting a business in Teheran and then try it in Tallahassee.  So if the West deteriorates and dies, it is not only bad for you and me,  it is even worse for millions of other human beings.

7/29/17 - I Know The Two Biggest Mistakes Of Your Life-But I Won’t Tell Anyone Else

Ayn Rand wasn’t right on everything but she is on these 2 ideas:  “A man's sexual choice is the result and the sum of his fundamental convictions . Show me the woman he sleeps with and I will tell you his valuation of himself.”  And this one, “...money demands of you the highest virtues…men who have no courage, pride or self-esteem…who have no moral sense of their right to their money…men who apologize for being rich…”   If you could teach your children only two things, teach them how money works and how male/female relationships work. Teach them well. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

7/22/17 - Why The Left Loathes Your Family and Your Finances - What’s The Connection?

Let’s consolidate Leftism, Socialism, Marxism, Communism, Progressivism, and yes, Liberalism, all under one simple but true umbrella---Secular Fundamentalism. Start off with a commitment to secularism, and your soul is automatically tugged left. Reject God and for most the alternative is government. But why Oh why do people who hate private property and despise the “rich” also loathe the traditional family.

7/22/17 - Why The Communist Manifesto Is Still Relevant To Our Dreams & Nightmares

It might have been written over 150 years ago but the part of our soul to which Marx and Engels were singing is still seduced by socialism. Until we are willing to deny the State any rights to our families and to our money, we will always remain vulnerable. Under the promise of security and equality, politicians lure you into dependency. A very bad deal. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
