Port Controversy Running Away from Gov. Haley

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a PR guy.  I am fascinated by the mechanics of spin and enamored with the nuance of damage control and crisis mitigation.  I often advise clients about the merits of “perceptional thinking” with regards to many of the matters and issues confronted in my still-new foray into [...]

Will Humans Become Redundant In Our Lifetime?

The widening gap between investment in job killing technology and in job creation for human workers makes nonsense of political leaders’ promises to “focus on job creation” and their exhortations to young people to stay in full timed education and saddle themselves with debt in order to get a degree qualification. This dehumanisation of industry [...]

Does the Vice President Matter?

The two most recent presidents of the United States, George W. Bush and Barack Obama, have changed the way vice presidents have been viewed by the American public since the 1950s. Consider the pattern that began in 1952 with the election of Dwight Eisenhower. Ike’s vice president was Richard Nixon, and Eisenhower was the elder [...]

Overseas Testicular Fortitude

In the following video, witness Nigel Farage, Member of European Parliament, dressing down his colleagues on November 16, 2011 with regard to the failure of the European Union: It is very reminiscent of my favorite MEP, Daniel Hannan, dressing down former British PM Gordon Brown about the economic collapse back on March 26, 2009: Golly, [...]

54°40′ Or Fight!

One of the best things about doing what I do here at America’s Right, other than the opportunity to direct folks to relevant news and opinion, is the catharsis that comes naturally from being about to spout off about issues that matter to me.  One of my regrets, especially as I witness a contentious election [...]

Once Silently Occupying — Now Vibrantly Declaring

Cliché or not, it’s not often that you have the opportunity to be a part of history.  On Thursday, November 17th, 2011 I cautiously took part of what #OWS, or Occupy Wall Street, deemed their “National Day of Action.” I am now presumably a part of history and, coincidently, what follows is not just a [...]

The Kerrys’ Insider Trading

Big Government: EXCLUSIVE DOCUMENTS: The Kerrys’ Curious Stock Trades Sen. John Kerry’s position on the powerful Senate Finance Committee’s Health Subcommittee gives him direct access to critical information regarding health care policy. In July 2009, pharmaceutical industry representatives met with key members of Congress to flesh out the Obamacare bill. Then, in November 2009, with [...]

Wow, #OccupySF is *that* bad?

Sacramento Bee: SF Declares Occupy Camp Public Health Nuisance San Francisco’s public health department has declared the Occupy San Francisco encampment in Justin Herman Plaza a public health nuisance. The declaration came on Thursday, though city authorities so far are allowing the demonstrators to remain in the plaza. Barbara Garcia, head of the city’s public [...]

Congressman Ron Paul, Libertarian Party Candidate?

I wrote a piece earlier this year for America’s Right that questioned the excitement the Republican Party has for Congressman Ron Paul, who is running for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination. (I told you he is running because MSNBC has not found out yet.) Paul is over seventy, too isolationist and, unlike a lot of [...]

BlogCon 2011: Bloggers and Hippies and Martinis, Oh My!

Last year, my takeaway from FreedomWorks’ first annual BlogCon bloggers conference was that I was “far from alone.”  Sitting in the terminal at Reagan National Airport only hours after attending the 9/12 rally at the foot of the Washington Monument, I wrote about the lessons learned from meeting so many people in the new media [...]
