It has become painfully evident that the American college system is bankrupting students while not preparing them for a successful future. The average cost for four years of college in the United States is $35,720. At private colleges, the average tuition is $37,200 per year. The typical cost for four years of a college education is no doubt expensive.

Maine is No Longer The Pine Tree State
For years, Maine has been called the Pine Tree State. As you drive around this beautiful state today, you will quickly understand why the Pine Tree has been replaced by the marijuana leaf on the state flag. Okay, that did not .really happen, but with the number of pot shops springing up in every city and town, it makes one wonder where we are heading.
How Many Ways Can China Destroy Us
There are many threats to America on the global front. Russia, Iran, and North Korea are the most talked about, but nobody comes close to the level and number of ways that they are attacking our people and country as China. China is our greatest threat, and we are complicit in much of what they … Read more
Defund Police is a Fantasy Story for the Left
The fact that Hakeen Jeffries is talked about in the Presidential contender talks is laughable. The guy is a hack congressman from New York, where an empty beer glass with a donkey logo can get elected to any office. He is also an outright liar. That is not hyperbole. It is not opinion. It is … Read more
Failing? Change the Rules
If you are doing nothing right and your ratings spiral downward, change the rules and the definitions, and then convince everything is great. The Biden administration is getting quite proficient at the name game, but, face it, their performance has required a lot of creative naming.
Climate vs Weather, The Left Does Not Know the Difference
The heat wave is the perfect situation for the unknowing, yes, ignorant Left to call for a Climate Emergency. You see, for the Left, any condition they see as existential can be cured by Executive Orders and restrictions.
Almost No One Wants Biden to Run Again
The White House staff needs a day off today to catch their breath. Many spent Sunday hitting all the news shows, trying to convince America that inflation is not their fault. The opinions were that inflation had peaked and we would avoid a recession. They are wrong on both counts.
Woke Warriors is a Conundrum
A strong military is one of the few purposes of a central federal government. To protect the people from foreign or domestic threats is the charge given to the various branches of our defense. There has never been the purpose of the brave men and women of our armed forces to promote social justice.
Sunday Spotlight: Johnny Joey Jones
Johnny Joey Jones may be missing part of his body, but he makes up for that with a huge heart, sharp mind, and a gift of communication. I do not know Joey, but of all the people I see and listen to in the media, he is one person I would love to know better, and maybe nobody for which I have more respect.
Hunter Biden, Indict Him Now
Unfortunately, those who care have read the emails, seen the videos, watched the documentaries, listened to his interviews, and know that Hunter Biden should be imprisoned. His father, our President, and his uncle should have adjoining cells. That is not hyperbole. This trio and their supporting and adoring family are as corrupt as any crime … Read more
Who Do We Focus On Today
Take your pick. Joe, Kamala, Pete, Alejandro, and even Karine. Every day is Ground Hound Day with this bunch. It gets redundant pointing out their miscues, missteps, and gaffes.
Thank You, Putin, For the Drop in Gas Prices
Thank you, Putin, for the drop in gas prices. That statement is as hilarious as Joe Biden blaming Putin for gas prices and inflation for the last six months. Joe Biden’s bad energy policies are responsible for the slowing economy and out-of-control price hikes. There are some international influences like the conflict in Ukraine, but … Read more
Another Reason for Term Limits
The current crop of aging members of the Legislature and the President has generated renewed interest in term limits for all Federal offices. Many members of the House and Senate are over 80 years of age.
Pay Attention, Mandates Are on the Way
It is challenging to understand the motives of the people and entities pushing for COVID related mandates. Part of the challenge comes from navigating through the mixed messages about COVID from the White House.
Sunday Spotlight: The Webb Telescope
It is not difficult to understand that we cannot even agree on how our universe and existence came to be. When you take the time to look into the evening sky and gaze upon the plethora of stars and realize that every one of those stars is another galaxy, like ours, of planets and moons circulating its sun, you may understand how insignificant we are.
Joe Brought His Checkbook, Came Back Empty
There were low expectations and high apprehension about Joe Biden’s trip to the Middle East. Initially part of his recent European swing, but Biden’s handlers knew a ten-day trip was too challenging. The White House told us that this trip was an audible not to tire out the aging Biden. He first went to Israel, … Read more
Goodbye from Bizarro World
Dear Joe, or whoever is running the White House and pulling the strings on your limbs, you have failed. We gave you eighteen months, and you have been consistent. Consistently wrong, that is.
It is Not Putin, It is Bad Policy
Here is the problem with our economy and the out-of-control inflation numbers that came out today. Since the President and his band of inept bureaucrats have no idea how they created this horrible economic environment, they cannot have a clue how to get us out of the mess. They are not capable of recovery. The … Read more
AFT Battles NEA For Most Dangerous Force on Education
I wrote about the NEA, National Education Association, just last week and its damaging influence on education, and worse, our children. With millions of members and their dues supporting far-left political issues and candidates, the NEA is more of a Political Action Committee than an entity concerned with your child’s education. The NEA says on … Read more
How Old is Too Old to be President
The forefathers, those brilliant men who drafted our Constitution and were able to foresee issues well into the future, never had to consider a maximum age to hold the office of President of the United States. At the time of the birth of America, the average life expectancy was 38 years, and as wise as … Read more
