                To discuss the issues of the day is not the same thing as debating those issues.  Debate doesn’t take much “education”, but it takes “information”.  The two terms may be used interchangeably and both may be, depending on whom the giver of the education or the information is, the fulfillment of truthful statements.  The conclusions that are drawn, however, may not be truthful.  The cause of coming to the wrong conclusions, even if a person has read and has comprehended the…

Why is it that when conservatives/Republicans speak of matters of faith and religion they are criticized by the press and liberal politicians, and are described as imposing their religion on the nation, but when Bill Clinton (remember his "healing" prayer sessions with Jesse Jackson after the Lewinski affair became known?) or Barack Obama (he speaks of his "Christian Faith" while trying to force the Catholic Church to abandon it's long-standing beliefs and…

Did you know that the office of the “President” was created for one specific reason?  To preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.  That’s it!   The intent of the Founding Fathers was for the “President” to sit before Congress and preside over the Constitution.
