It’s estimated “only low hundreds” of Americans were left behind in Afghanistan, and “maybe they chose to stay”? And maybe we should believe Biden is a master strategist and political savant and only acts like a befuddled idiot to fool our unfriendly opponents?

Relativism Versus Reality: Ralph Peters and Endless War
Since 1968, when my essay “The Crisis of Our Times” appeared in the Congressional Record, I have written several books warning of the pernicious and subversive influence of the university-bred doctrine of moral and cultural relativism.
If Morality Is Relative, Then I Can’t Be a Racist and Militant Vegans Can’t Fault Me for Eating Meat.
Moral relativism is a foundation of secular humanism. It’s the idea that no one can know or compel another person’s morality because it can’t. It’s an unintentional corollary to cultural appropriation (or maybe I have that reversed) – another stupid left-Wing idea.
Teacher: ‘Caucasian’ Should Be Canceled as Term for “White Person,” – CRT Stack of Stuff Part 13
Not only are we subjected to a morality that demands we simply give up ours (of a sort, it really is just plain totalitarianism), the Left continues to DoubleThink us by denying and changing/redefining our language out from underneath us.
Liberals Don’t Understand the Terrifying Force of Death
The Left may well find out what the answer will be to “Why didn’t we just leave them alone?”: I think that the backlash to Critical Race Theory is but a very small taste of what may be coming. The TEA Party was merely fighting against Obama and his ideological kin when The LightBringer ballooned … Read more
So the Teacher Takeover of Our Kids Have Been Going for a While.
Like what sometimes happens here at GraniteGrok (as we approach 42,000 posts), when you go researching something you wrote years ago (and I did find it this time – used it here), you end up finding OTHER stuff that can be “revived” as it’s still relevant. In my case, a decade ago which was my … Read more
About Freedom…
Freedom is often talked about, praised, and glorified. We fight wars for freedom, sing songs about freedom, even our New Hampshire state motto pays homage to freedom, “Live free or die.” However, as I go about my duties as a Legislator and State Representative, I have serious concerns.
Conformity or Morality … How Should We Think
Conflict with the Middle East has generated literature about the “clash of civilizations.” Ostensibly this would be between liberal western civilization and Islam in particular. The war on terror, plus mass emigration from the Middle East to Europe is adding urgency to the concern.
Blogline of the Day – Hey, Republicans for Biden, this is what you voted for.
In 2020, America elected a president who slithered his way up the greasy pole and a vice president who slept her way up. So, what say you, Tom Rath, Steve Duprey, and Gordon Humphrey? This is the “Moral” duo you want the rest of us to believe are “Presidential”? Joe Biden broke up his wife’s former … Read more
There Will be No Unification in Washington – So Stop Asking for That
“When will Democrats and Republicans finally get along in Washington, D.C.?” The short answer is that they won’t because there is a fundamental issue that lies right in front of the American people that many refuse to acknowledge. This is a fight between good and evil.
Wokeness: Speaking of what is now called the Washington Football Team…
Yeah, Wokesters. Right now they are the shock troops of the Collective. You have your thoughts and beliefs. They have theirs.
Showing the hypocrisy of the Left in two tweets. Who said they believed that Black Lives Matter?
Only those black lives that believe like they do. (H/T: Instapundit)
The problem isn’t Gun control, it is SELF-control
Again, the chasm between the Left and the Right on this issue is enormous. It can’t and won’t be solved until the root problem is finally admitted to, recognized, and acknowledged. But, I fear, it won’t because it really isn’t about Gun control as the Left is yammering.
Is it Possible to Make a Moral World with Reason Alone?
There are lots of people today who believe reason is all we need to be moral. But is it really possible to make a moral world with reason alone? Does rationality take the place of faith, belief structure?
Harvey Weinstein: Hollywood’s moral compass
Yeah, tell me how good that “moral compass” works for the rest of us. (H/T: Powerline)
“Why Capitalism Is Morally Superior to Other Systems”
Prof. Walter E. Williams is one of my most favorite columnists – his writings are always about base Principles, his writings are pithy and instructive, and they are to the point in ways that most people can’t write similarly or with such clarity. While I do a lot of “notable quotes” and fisking of other … Read more
Throughout History Slavery was the Norm. Overcoming it Required Exceptional Ideals
Throughout history slavery was ordinary, it has been the norm. Overcoming it required exceptional ideals; values and principles. Most people today lack context for their understanding of American slavery.
Save the Eagle Eggs? Yes! Save innocent Unborn Babies? Not so much
The Left is always predictable – all about “saving” things that fit in “nature” – but not just babies. Babies from other species – you bet that they need protection. Your future brother? Sister? Cousin? Friend? Expendable. As Brietbart observed, politics is downstream from culture and The Left has definitely screwed up our culture to … Read more
Morality is a Function of Religion Not Government
Planned Parenthood (PP) recently made a withdrawal from the Title X family planning program announcement. The decision comes as a result of a regulatory change. The regulatory change requires separation of the abortion business from other health care service businesses in order to retain federal funding. The benefit Choosing abortion over taxpayer funding pretty much … Read more
So NH’s Maggie “The Red” Hassan hasn’t told voters about her staffer’s data breach?
That’s rather rich coming from an elected official who has been wagging her “I’m from the Government and I’m here to tell you what to do” bony finger at organization who may have had black hat data breaches who stole their data. So, there’s a difference between getting hacked and a US Senator from NH … Read more
