This is a perfect example of how political correctness has run amok in this country. One person is “offended” by something, so the rest of us – who are in the vast majority – have to cowtow to that one person. We see it everyday in other situations where a small minority of people, such […]
I love living in the Pacific Northwest, but I have to say that nearby Seattle is a really screwy place. I’m very happy not to live in King County. In 2011, the city approved the “Leaves of Remembrance project” which allowed for bronze leaves to be installed on the sidewalks with the names of homeless […]
America is facing a whole lot of problems and the bozos in government don’t know how to set priorities. For example, there are certain things that affect all of us as Americans. Our almost 17,000,000,000,000.00 national debt, unemployment, the ever-rising welfare state, the IRS targeting select groups of citizens, the killing of four of our […]
Up until a week ago, I didn’t know anything about Paula Deen except I always thought she had great hair. I’ve never seen her show, I don’t subscribe to her magazine and I don’t have any of her cookbooks. After last week, and her admission that over two decades ago she used racial slurs, her […]
I don’t know if we’re turning into a bunch of spineless, whiny, wussies or if we’re just going nuts. This endless quest to be politically correct in all areas of our lives is just plain crazy. Take for example this pathological need to change how we normally speak. The University of North Carolina will no […]
With all the political correctness, secular progressive propaganda and outright craziness going on in schools today, I wonder if kids are actually learning anything at all. In my world, you went to school, learned a skill (as I did in my vocational high school), and got a job. Higher education came much later for me. […]
Just about every week I see a headline where someone is calling someone else a racist. It’s boring, tedious, and tiresome. Those that bandy around the “R” word are just intellectually challenged. First, they probably don’t even know the meaning of the word “racist” and, second, it’s much easier to stop a conversation in its […]
I have absolutely no idea what’s happening in this country. We have our President simply declaring (not by Executive Order, by the way) that illegal alien children brought into this country by their illegal alien parents will no longer be deported but will be given the right to work, even though he could have accomplished […]
By: R. Neil Kline The world of intercollegiate athletics is an interesting stew to say the least. It is a mixture of money, a smattering of egocentricity, a dash of concern for the student athlete, a yet smaller dash of perceived concern for said student athlete’s actual academic progress towards a degree and then brought […]
Alaska Airlines is my favorite carrier. They have great customer service, an extremely generous mileage plan and routes to the places I regularly travel. For the past 30 years, Alaska has handed out prayer cards with its meals. They were simple cards quoting passages from Psalms printed over lovely photographs. Since 2006, when the airline […]
