Growing Old is Not for Sissies
Growing Old is Not for Sissies
There is a massive conglomeration of biases, ignorance, misunderstanding and psychological projection clogging the arteries of our absurdly youth-oriented culture. It’s so bad that we may actually stroke out as a society before we even get to Election Day, much less elect a President who will lead us forward as a nation and be appreciated for doing it. 07/04/2024 00:00
Fire safety urged for Fourth
Fire safety urged for Fourth
With the Fourth of July bringing a possible four-day weekend for lucky Texans, the Texas A&M Forest Service urges outdoor enthusiasts to exercise fire safety outdoors, especially when using fireworks or starting campfires to roast hot dogs and toast marshmallows. 07/04/2024 00:00
Bad News for Biden
Bad News for Biden
The mainstream media is running with the headline that the latest Fox News poll shows Former President Trump two points behind President Joe Biden – a difference well within the margin of error – but the poll also reveals an edge for Trump on a majority of electoral issues. In addition, a majority of voters say the race in November will be about the issues, not about the candidates, a finding that could significantly favor Trump. 06/26/2024 00:00

This is not about Donald Trump. It’s not even about the sad souls seduced by him. The insurrectionists who stormed the Capital to prevent the peaceful transfer of power were primarily guilty of being gullible. They merely fell for the big fraud. They did not do the defrauding. Many have been held accountable for their actions. Most of the ones who fooled them have not. Yet. 06/26/2024 00:00

OUSTANDING COLUMN
I was very impressed by the guest column written by Lawrence Wittner in the recent issue of the Bulletin. He wrote about Donald Trump’s anti-union actions including directing the National Labor Relations Board to undermine workers’ attempts to unionize in order to advocate for themselves. 06/26/2024 00:00
You’re Never Alone with Christ
You’re Never Alone with Christ
When we face a struggle, it can feel like we're alone. We can vent or unload to a friend about what is going on but often be left feeling they just don't understand. 06/26/2024 00:00
Choose Your Don
Choose Your Don
(Don – Italian - A powerful Mafia Leader) That clever old dude, President Biden, keeps building on his Republican claimed “crime family” laurels. After pulling off the humongous effort of stealing the 2020 Presidential election, he has now spearheaded the felony conviction of Donald Trump on 34 counts. He did not even need to use the US Justice Department to accomplish this as non-federal Manhattan prosecutors took care of the dirty work. 06/26/2024 00:00

6 Reasons Why You Should Get Help For Your Mental Health
6 Reasons Why You Should Get Help For Your Mental Health
Many people underestimate the impact that mental illness can have on an individual or family. It can be difficult to admit that you have a mental health problem in your life. Secondly, it can be just as difficult in getting the people you know to understand your situation without making any kinds of judgments. 06/19/2024 00:00
How Donald Trump Worked to Destroy America’s Labor Unions
How Donald Trump Worked to Destroy America’s Labor Unions
Although Donald Trump has been eager to garner support from American labor unions for his re-election campaign, there are lots of reasons he’s not going to get it. Chief among them is his record in sabotaging the nation’s labor movement. 06/19/2024 00:00
Fair Taxation
Fair Taxation
The total tax rate on American families is pushing the 50% level. This level of taxation is theft of labor, equivalent to slavery. The charges by the President and his bureaucrats regarding “paying a fair share” of taxes demonstrate that few have any experience in or correct understanding of what business should be about. It is evidence that when bureaucrats see wealth, they go after it. 06/19/2024 00:00

On Behalf of the Jury, I Object!
On Behalf of the Jury, I Object!
The jury system has literally been around for millennia. Early Greek democracy included citizen juries; our modern system has its roots in medieval England. The fundamental idea was that fairness could be better achieved if a group of one’s peers in the community had input into the final decision of the court and could advise the judge according to their deliberations. 06/12/2024 00:00

Former president Trump, you had four years to lead the United States and failed us by your own choosing. Whether it be in foreign policy or domestic policy, you did not protect the United States as commander in chief. 06/12/2024 00:00

Climate Change: A Road to Death
The world is headed right down that road. It killed 4 children in Valley View, Texas in the darkened, early morning hours of Sunday, May 26, 2024. Over that Sunday, tornadoes also killed “at least 23 people in a long-weekend swarm of deadly weather.” 06/05/2024 00:00
