There are a lot of numbers and stats out there, as well as gun-grabbing groups spouting “White Extremist!” and “Right Wing!” as soon as news of another mass shooting flashes across the Left-leaning Mainstream Media.

Act Like Men Part 3: Compromise or Courage
Dr. Jordan Peterson is one of the most staunch defenders of men and masculinity. Peterson was living a relatively quiet life in Canada, teaching psychology and coaching both women and men, when his university and country decided to attempt to compel his speech.
Blogline of the Day: Remember, He Folded Like A Wet Paper Bag When The Left Came After Him
The character Race Bannon (“Johnny Quest” cartoon series) has shown more courage than him: ROBERT SPENCER: Mike Pence Seems to Think Being a Conservative Means Letting the Left Get Away With Everything. If you want solid, stolid, poker-faced, self-righteous impotence and me-tooism, Mike Pence is your man. Solid, stolid Pence reinforced that perception Wednesday when he … Read more
Democrat Lawmakers Caught on the Horns of a Dilemma
Loyalty has always been considered an admirable quality in the business world and in politics – in life in general. Many would argue that loyalty is the foundation upon which any relationship is built. But what happens when loyalty conflicts with conscience? What if we find ourselves in a situation where we have to choose … Read more
“Courage is Not the Absence of Fear”
Australia, New Zealand – what used to be thought of as Free and Democratic nations have been overrun and turned into Sununu “Public Health trumps EVERYTHING” nations by healthcare tyrants who forget that Life is more than just fear of disease.
Notable Quote – Where is the Courage to be Fearless and DO something!
Reformatted, emphasis mine: The conservative establishment, its politicians, and its media, don’t lack ideas or people. But too many of its leaders do lack determination and endurance and fearlessness. The people can tell. As it is said, “Men don’t follow titles, they follow courage.” The conservative movement in D.C. has too often been engaged in … Read more
Revolt in Our Military
The s***t is hitting the fan at the Pentagon and why can anyone be surprised? Ninety retired generals and admirals have called on General Mike Milley (Chief of Staff) and Dept of Defense Lloyd Austin USMC (Never Trumper) to resign over the botched Afghanistan withdrawal.
Donald Trump’s Impossible Dreams
The blind hatred that consumes President Trump’s enemies is reflected in their poisonous rhetoric, which long ago exceeded inflammatory. It’s become utterly insane. They’ve labeled the president a white supremacist, a racist, a fascist, a tyrant, and even a traitor.
Joe Biden’s Courage to Conform
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.”
Classical Liberal = Republican
The assertion: No classical liberal can, in America today, be member of the Democrat Party. Why? Because the ideology of the party does not allow free speech, free thought, debate or criticism of party dogma. As a democrat, it is an all or nothing proposition today . You either accept the dogma… or you are … Read more
Re: Take it back or burn it down
“Fire upon it, my dear Marquis, and never spare a particle of my property so long as it affords a comfort or a shelter to the enemies of my country. – Virginia Governor Thomas Nelson, when asked by Marquis de Lafayette, who was commanding the artillery barrage of Yorktown in the American War of Independence, … Read more
Sometimes, a post needs to go up….and up….and up again. And then remind some that we didn’t think that they didn’t need them….at first.
“They wont all need the Repair kit….but a few of them probably do…and we all know who they are.“
His minimalist Republican Repair kit really is all that is needed. Really. Two items. The only thing I would add would be a STRONG Conservative outlook, demeanor, and action. Oh yeah, one more thing that seems to be sorely lacking lately: Courage. People will be willing to go to the mat for that person that embodies all that. But that person, that singular personality, has to stand strong, stand up for the Right Principles, and when it counts, has made the decision to not compromise. The example that lately comes to mind is WI Gov. Scott Walker – standing firm on Conservative principles, not backing down, and fighting the good fight.
This past Friday nite at the Future of Journalism weekend event was the first annual Brietbart Awards in honor of Andrew Breitbart who changed the outlook of the Right Blogosphere and was one of the most influential folks that helped to upset the balance between the MSM and the New Media. He showed that simply showing up, and standing up, can change the direction of the political battles in which we find ourselves. The first annual Award winners were:
- Citizen Activist: Andrew Marcus (citizen film director, Hating Breitbart)
- Blogger: Duane Lester (AllAmericanBlogger.com, LibertyNews.com)
- Full Time Reporter: Philip Klein (Washington Examiner)
Of course at such an awards night, there are others that are doing the introducing of the winners and such. In each case, those that did were those that knew Andrew well or had touched their lives in a given way. Dana Loesch, reporter for Breitbart and conservative radio talk host was one of the speakers and made an impassioned, emotional speech (and yes, I have asked Erik Telford, VP at Franklin Center (along with the Heritage Foundaton, the hosts for the event) to see if there is video of it). In it, she had two lines that meshed with the overall theme of the night, in which was that we are not just in a war of ideas, but in a Cold Civil War for the future of America just as real, just as deadly, and will have as much impact on our future that the actual Civil War had going forward.
- You cannot win by running away
- We cannot leave any warriors on the battlefield
Practical reasoning – practical advice. The following is not what Dana said, but what struck home as she uttered these principles.
