Birth of a conservative intellectual, Part 2
In my last column, “Birth of a conservative intellectual,” I presented a personal narrative of how I rejected the zeitgeist of Darwinism, liberalism, socialism and hedonism that permeated most American colleges and are zealously embraced by most of my classmates, to become a Reagan conservative during my senior year at DePauw University, leading to the […]
Obama’s predecessor … from 2,600 years ago
“When a benevolent mind contemplates the republic of Lycurgus, its admiration is mixed with a degree of horror.” ~ Thomas Day Lycurgus (c. 820–730 B.C.?) was the mythical lawgiver of Sparta that flourished in the first half of the seventh century B.C., who established the militarist reforms of Spartan society based on the Oracle of […]
IS OBAMA A MARXIST?

Obama’s quote above not only reminds me of Karl Marx, the father of socialism and communism, moreover, his arrogant, anti-business, anti-capitalism screed reminds me of the words of Thomas Jefferson who wisely said, “A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take away everything you have.” Perhaps that’s why so many Marxists and socialists professors and liberal teachers are rewriting and revising history today, because they don’t want the voting public to be knowledgeable about the truth of history, politics and economics.

Suggestive of Marx, Engels, Nietzsche, Mead, Kinsey and Freud, Friedan’s private […]

We’re all communists now
Communism in America was exposed in a 1958 book by conservative writer Cleon Skousen, “Naked Communist.” State capitalism, Federal Reserve, federal taxes, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, unionism, welfare statism (subsidies) and pension plans, are examples of the thousands of treasonous Ponzi schemes and slush funds politicians have used since the 1850s to dumb down society, […]
