We know our country is in a pickle. 

We have a National Debt that’s too high. The country needs to keep running. All of that is supposed to be taken care of by the people we elect.

But that’s not how it’s working out.

While we diligently paid our taxes, then sent our Electeds...

“White” is getting a bad rap nowadays. White bread is scorned. Whole grain is praised.

And then there’s White Privilege. It’s become the Eighth Deadly Sin, along with Pride, Greed, Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Wr...

You’re illegal? Scared of ICE? Can’t find free food at the local food pantry? It’s your problem, not mine. 

You say you came here to get a better life? Yeah. We do have great lives here. 

That’s because we fought for our country. Now you go home, and fight for yours. Make ...

They tell you not to judge a book by its cover, but that’s baloney.

Take a look at the guy who’s running for mayor of New York. Tell me he doesn’t look like Mephistopheles. 

The only positive quality he has going for him is that his first name isn’t Mohammed.

Does that sound unfair? Discriminatory? I hope so...

What does it mean to be a member of Congress? An attorney general. Any elected official. Part of our Intelligence Community.

To me, showing up for work and doing the job might be a good start. It’s called your “work ethic,” but there’s not a lot of that going around.

Congress has the power of the purse, yet we’re in so mu...

Discipline is love. It makes a better world. Better people.

You break it, you bought it. You do the crime, you do the time.

As a mother, my rule of thumb was if the kids were doing something that annoyed me, they had to stop. Then they wouldn’t go on to annoy perfect strangers.
