Why De Facto Government (Tyranny) is replacing the Constitution

In my WND column today I apply the logic of America’s founders to the Constitutional issue raised by Obama’s refusal to defend the DOMA signed into law during the Clinton era. Like the partial birth abortion ban from roughly the same period, the law may have been a political ploy, intended to provide cover for [...]

The true right to secede comes from God not the Constitution

In an article I saw this week at WND Pat Buchanan writes of the Declaration of Independence:
The declaration was signed by 56 angry old white guys who had had enough of what the Cousins were doing to them. In seceding from the mother country, these patriots put their lives, fortunes and honor on the line.
Four [...]

America’s Founders made good their choice, not lesser evil

There was a time when the people who argued that the ratification of the U.S. Constitution was a choice of evil were mainly leftist radicals riding the hobby horse of the 3/5 clause on their way to discrediting America’s Founders and all their works. My WND column tomorrow will be about an article by WND’s [...]

Election 2012- a missed opportunity for America?

[For readers who may have missed here, this was my weekly column, published last Friday at WND.]
Commenting on the second act of the Romney/Obama debate miniseries, the astute foreign policy expert Daniel Pipes observed that “Romney missed an opportunity by not discussing larger issues but letting himself get mired in details.” In the same vein [...]

‘In God we trust’ precludes backing false idols of hope or fear

[This exchange occurred in response to both my column this week at WND and the post entitled Obama’s adamantly un-American radicalism meets Romney’s self-canceling conservative pose.]
THE COMMENT
I love you Alan.  I co-ran your Minnesota Campaign in 2000 (we beat McCain, even though he was the projected winner  -  it took the tribune a week to [...]

For the Lord’s Day

This time, as a people, is America’s soul required of us?

What is the first thing the Bible tells us about God? “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”  According to the Scripture, our primordial perception of God is as the Creator of all that we survey.
What is the primordial principle of justice, [...]

Does Akin Test Show Romney isn’t pro-life

[For readers who may have missed it, this is my column for this week from WND.]
In chemistry, a litmus test is used to reveal the presence or absence of a substance. In the last few days, Todd Akin has served as a potent litmus test for pro-life principle. The Romney/Ryan GOP’s reaction to his stand [...]

Obama’s abuse of power demands a “national inquest”-the Constitutional way

We most conscientiously commemorate epoch making events in human history by fully recalling their signal importance to the welfare or suffering of humanity. This year, as we approach the anniversary of America’s Declaration of Independence, Americans still disposed to do so should have no problem commemorating its anniversary in this conscientious way. The purpose of [...]
