This is not Joe Biden’s first presidential run, nor is it his first encounter with character issues. During the campaign of 1987, Biden’s presidential ambitions were derailed after voters learned he had plagiarized a campaign speech. That led to the revelation that he had also plagiarized several pages of a paper while in law school. … Read more

How Much Corruption Will Democrat Voters Stomach Just To Defeat Trump?

October 20, 2020October 20, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Looking at the primal rage and anti-Trump hysteria burdening Democrats these days, it’s hard to remember that just a few short years ago, they were alive, happy, and filled with boundless love. Yet there they were, metaphorically basking on the deck of some luxury ocean liner, with Barack Obama at the helm and the wind at their backs.

One America, Two Perceptions

October 12, 2020October 12, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Is this the Face of the New Socialist?

September 29, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Democrats have spent a lot of time in recent years trying to shake off the label of “socialist.” Barack Obama used to brush it aside, scoff at it. When Joe Biden was asked about it recently, he answered more directly, boasting, “I beat the socialist…Do I look like a socialist?”

Is There still Time to Rekindle America’s Spirit of Pride?

September 15, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Americans haven’t always seen eye-to-eye on all issues. From the beginning, long before there were Democrats and Republicans, there were opposing political parties offering contrasting solutions to the problems facing our country.

Don’t blame Trump for dividing our country.

August 31, 2020August 31, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Joe Biden’s Courage to Conform

August 10, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Joe Biden’s supporters have called him a man of courage. The late John Lewis used those very words to describe him shortly after Biden jumped into the presidential race. Nancy Pelosi went a little further, calling Biden the “personification of hope and courage, values, authenticity, and integrity.”

Still the Land of the Free? Maybe Not.

July 28, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Democrat Appeasement of the Squeaky Wheels

Have the squeaky wheels taken over?

July 16, 2020July 16, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Here in America, as in all free societies, we’ve always functioned under a simple, but essential concept – the principle of majority rule. It has its flaws, but it’s vastly superior to totalitarian regimes, dictatorships, and oligarchies.

Defunding the Police – An Insane Solution to a Fabricated Problem

July 4, 2020July 3, 2020 Peter Lemiska

It’s really hard to understand how we got to where we are today. The video of George Floyd’s death was deeply disturbing, but there has to be something else at work to bring about the widespread rioting, the wanton destruction of our national monuments, the vitriol directed at law enforcement officers, and the insane demands … Read more

The Democrats Are Accomplices to Chaos

June 22, 2020June 22, 2020 Peter Lemiska

It may be interesting to hear rational Democrats try to explain away the insane demands of their radical counterparts, but we really don’t need clarification. When those radicals call for defunding and abolishing the police, they mean exactly what they say.

Youthful Idiots and the Illusory Truth Effect

June 5, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Watching the news coverage of the ongoing riots, I couldn’t help notice a couple of things. First, was the anger, the feral vitriol directed at the police on the scene. It was apparent in the faces and the actions of the rioters and in the signs scattered about, hateful signs like, “Blue Lives Murder,” and “Good Cops Are Dead Cops.”

Malfeasance by the book – A satirical look at a bizarre story

May 26, 2020May 25, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Now that all the talk about Russian collusion, quid pro quo, and believing all women seem to be fading away along with Hillary Clinton’s presidential ambitions, the country is beginning to focus on other issues and new catchphrases.

Democrats Go for the Gold

May 19, 2020May 18, 2020 Peter Lemiska

America’s response to the coronavirus pandemic has been unprecedented. The complete shutdown of our national economy is truly historic. Not since World War II have Americans experienced such widespread anxiety, unrest, and economic hardship.

A Medical Necessity, a National Catastrophe

April 15, 2020April 15, 2020 Peter Lemiska

The economic paralysis we’re suffering today is catastrophic, but it’s just what the doctor ordered.

The shroud of socialism won’t be lifted with Bernie’s defeat

March 16, 2020 Peter Lemiska

Democrats and Republicans seem to agree on one thing: Bernie Sanders cannot defeat President Trump in the general election. While his raucous crowds and early campaign victories suggest widespread support, a recent Gallup poll confirms that 53 percent of Americans surveyed would not vote for a socialist presidential candidate.

Protecting Democracy by Trolling for Trump-haters?

February 18, 2020February 18, 2020 Peter Lemiska

If there’s one thing Democrats understand, it’s the science of propaganda. They’ve been using one of the basic propaganda tools for three years. Joseph Goebbels explained it like this: “If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it…”

’Tis the Season to be Gleeful?

December 23, 2019 Peter Lemiska

It is, as another seasonal song tells us, a most wonderful time of the year. It’s a time when most people seem a little more charitable, more giving and forgiving. It’s a season that brings, for most, a measure of comfort, hope and joy.

Why Democrats Can’t Find More Support for Impeachment

December 11, 2019 Peter Lemiska

Frustrated Democrats have tried everything to gain public support for impeachment. After alternately hinting at it, suggesting it, and demanding it for three years, they brought in a special counsel to investigate the president. Then there were the hearings, closed and open. They tried appealing to our sense of justice and to our patriotism. After … Read more

Can Barack Obama be prosecuted for bribery?

November 18, 2019November 18, 2019 Peter Lemiska

Over the past several weeks, Democrats have been trying to justify their impeachment hearings based on some allegations of a quid pro quo between President Trump and the president of Ukraine. But most Americans, reasonable Americans, understand that the hearings are nothing more than a farce, the culmination of the Democrats’ three-year-long neurotic obsession with the removal of President Trump.
