The tragedy is hard for some to believe. A beloved and admired athlete and father is no longer with us.

I can remember back in 1992 when H. Ross Perot was running as an independent against then-President George Bush and the Governor of Arkansas, Bill Clinton the budget was a huge issue. America had been running budget deficits for decades and by that time, we had only a $4 trillion national debt. The only president in my lifetime that actually balanced the budget ended up being Bill Clinton. He had raised the top marginal tax rate from 33% to 39.6%, and from 1994 until he left office he had a congress that was controlled by the GOP. If memory serves me correctly, he left office with a budget surplus of around $600,000,000.00 That is pretty significant considering how large the deficits are these days. I can only imagine what if we had stayed on that track. That was the 1990s. And here we are in a new decade more than twenty years later and it seems like the debt and deficit aren't even a blip on the radar of the average voter. When was the last time you heard a college student m...
We're America!!! Right? Even our superheroes are patriotic. Superman was dedicated to "truth, justice and the American way" What a great guy he was. We stand up to evil. We support democracies. And we oppose dictatorships no matter what. Right? Isn't that 100% what we stand for? I'm on to something here, aren't I? Can you hear the cannons of war bringing liberation to the oppressed? Surveys have shown that people around the world see America's government as one that makes a conscious effort to protect the rights of its citizens. Even Middle Eastern countries with a rocky history as far as America is concerned see it as a country with a very fair government towards it's own people. Those same surveys however have also tended to imply that in the minds of many foreign citizens, America's values are not reflected in its foreign policies. When it comes to who we side with, the surveys reflect an opinion that America talks a good game, but ultimately...
So, here we sit many months into a witch hunt and what do we have? The House of Representatives led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi has presented articles of impeachment, has actually impeached President Trump and now refuses so far to submit it all to the Senate for trial. How much money was spent? How many millions of taxpayer dollars were wasted looking for some evidence of wrongdoing by our President? The investigation into President Clinton cost over $40,000,000 in 1998. And to find out what? That he cheated on Hillary with a 21 year old intern? Even though I didn't like Clinton being President, in hindsight I am disappointed that the government spent that time and effort trying to take down a duly-elected President. What was done to Clinton is the same thing being done today. It's just a political witch hunt to try and take down a President and revers an election. If there was any real evidence that President Trump had committed some type of high crime, we would have see t...
