Raffy’s Tweet Hasn’t Fooled Anybody
I’m not done with Georgia’s Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger. If you are going to use your faith like a credit card, you must be prepared to pay the bill. In the South, saying you are born again implies that we can depend on you to do the right thing, to tell the truth, and…
Read MoreHere Is a Place to Start
The question I have been asked the most often since last November is this: “What can I do to help?” Being keenly aware of what happened, of how the fundamental American right of one man, one vote was betrayed to gain an unjust outcome, millions of good Americans want to do whatever they can to…
Read MoreIs the Georgia Audit a Big Deal or Not?
People have asked me about the audit that has been ordered by the court for about 141,000 questionable mail-in ballots in Georgia. Folks want to know if this is much-ado about nothing or if this has teeth. The short answer is this audit definitely has teeth. It’s the whole enchilada, not only in the…
Read MoreAmerica Is Coming Back—You Can Feel It
When Phil Mickelson won the PGA, becoming the oldest player ever to win a major, it was one of the all-time great sports moments, but it was more than that. It was also a great American moment, not so much because it was patriotic but because it wasn’t anti-patriotic. Unlike the NBA and Major League…
Read MoreTo Defeat the Progressives, We Must Be Who We Claim to Be
Once again, this is a difficult post for me to write. I need to though because there is no way for us to be the people God has called us to be, “for such a time as this,” without all of us being candid and straightforward with the truth. Standing for the truth against the…
Read MoreI Don’t Want to Learn How to Swim
When my brother and I were about this age, our mom, Murph, decided that we needed to learn to swim. Acting upon her decision, she bought a package of swimming lessons for us at the local YMCA in Newton, Massachusetts. Back then, only men were allowed to be at the Y. Women had to go…
Read MoreWe Are Headed for a Constitutional Crisis
At the core of what has made the United States the envy of the world for two-and-one-half centuries and the reason why our system of government has been emulated repeatedly, is that in our election process the losers are willing to consent to the will of the majority. Historically, when one side loses, they accept…
Read MoreTo Change the USA, We Must Change
Centuries ago, St. Francis of Assisi said we should witness for Christ a thousand times a day and occasionally use words. His clear message was Christians should be different from those around them, and this difference should be tangible and recognizable, not because we are religious, but because we are Christ-like. More often than not,…
Read MoreTrump’s Ban on Facebook Is “Permanent”
Facebook’s Oversight Board has just announced that former President Donald Trump will remain banned from its platform. This decision, which is a victory for liberals and Progressives, is certain to set the tone for further censorship of political leaders and those of us who express political opinions on Facebook. There is no way for Trump…
Read MoreThe New American Male . . . God Help Us!
I remember the first time I saw photos of Barack Obama riding a girl’s bicycle while wearing a helmet. I was literally stunned by how effeminate he looked. I couldn’t believe his White House communications staff could make such a blunder. Before Obama, every President went to extraordinary lengths to make certain no photographs of…
