The constitution of hope and a future.
A tweet caught my eye today, and stirred up a need to write about the American situation and where we ought to be heading. The tweet promoted a Human Events opinion piece by Jane Coleman, which is well worth the time and easy to commend to your perusal.
It’s about CRT as it is manifested in America’s schools, Continue reading “The American Spring will be forward, not back”
Catching up to the tower of lies.
Maybe that’s a tad optimistic. Maybe we’re just starting the battle for Gondor. Or something; you figure out what LOTR analogy you prefer.
Perhaps the moment is the much earlier one (in the trilogy) when the sword of Elendil is re-forged. OK, OK, I’ll stop.
What I’m suggesting is that we’ve reached a turning point. At PJ Media, Roger Simon asks, “What if it’s all true?” He’s referring to the numerous reports of fact, large and small – some well established, some not – that added together mean “President Barack Obama” is a walking lie of such gargantuan proportions, the human mind can hardly compass it.

Fact: Stalin’s Soviet agents. Implication about WWII?
What are the implications of the extensively documented fact that agents of the Soviet government were employed in high positions in the United States government in the 1930s and 1940s? Do we have a skewed view of World War II because we have failed to address that question?

Diana West’s remarkable new book, American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on Our Nation’s Character, compiles some potential answers to these questions. As West argues early in the book, Continue reading “Facts and implications: Notes on Diana West’s American Betrayal”
