As mentioned frequently within these pages, yours truly has oft-reminded every reader of Alexander Fraser Tytler, a Scottish scholar and historian who published The Decline and Fall of the Athenian Republic in the very same year as our Founding Fathers were bringing forth the Declaration of Independence. In his publication, Tytler reported that from his research he had…
Watching Hillary Clinton implode in front of We The People is nothing short of a parody of her own erstwhile “husband” squirming in a White House presser in 1998 and declaring “I did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky” and thereby setting off what would turn out to be one of the most…
Hillarious!! (pun intended) even the dead don’t like the Clintons, especially the pantsuit Clinton .. A deceased New Jersey woman requested in her obituary that loved ones pay their respects not by bringing flowers to her funeral but by refraining from voting for Hillary Clinton in 2016. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Elaine Fyrdrych of Gloucester Township, New Jersey,…
Hillary Clinton to Ed Henry yesterday: “Everybody is acting like this is the first time it’s ever happened. It happens all the time.” Oh really??

This should be a time for sincere mourning, but the left…
YEAH AMERICA WE DID IT! MAYBE PEOPLE WILL LIKE US NOW – USA!! USA!! USA!! USA!! USA!! Thanks to the skills of John Oliver and his team I can now see the FIFA kerfuffle as a gigantic metaphor for the deep and abiding corruption of, well, the entire globe. On the one hand, it is…
In the immortal words of G. K. Chesterton: “For the devil is a gentleman and never keeps his word.” – a reminder to all that politics today is a very nasty world. Harry Truman described it thusly: “My choice early in life was either to be a piano-player in a whorehouse or a politician. And…
Hillary-Billary Clinton maintains 45% favorabiity in the polls for primarily one reason. She is the only DemoMarxist candidate with a trace of visibility. Those 45% will vote for the DemoMarxist, regardless of who the person is. You could put Charlie Manson in that role, and he would poll 45%. This country does not, if it…
