The libertarian philosophy can be condensed to its essence: we are all obligated to live honestly, without initiating force or fraud upon another human being. And that is my Christmas wish for all who follow Dr. Tim’s Moment Of Clarity – an honest life free from force or fraud.



The libertarian’s political ambition is to impose the smallest government footprint capable of enforcing this obligation upon all who operate within its domain. Government, by its nature, is organized force;…

Hey Tea Party Activists and Friends,

Five tips from Grover Norquist http://www.congress.org/news/2009/11/13/five_tips_from_grover_norquist?ref=news…

My Dearest America,

As we prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ our Saviour again we reflect also on your magnificence. At this time of family, friends and Faith we want to assure you your beauty and splendor will not go unnoticed. As we profess God's revelation to us of his Sons birth we also inform you of another revelation we are experiencing in you. Our need to preserve you as Constitutionally demanded, lest we lose you forever. You stand above the free world as a…

I was glued to CSPAN yesterday to see if they would really pull it off. Not the START treaty or 1st Responders' Bill. Their passage were foregone conclusions, in my opinion. What I was really waiting for was to see if the 111th Congress would really adjourn . They did, but not without some parting shots. Majority Leader Senator Harry Reid got a final dig in at Republicans sitting on the sidelines and not joining the (his?) legislative process, despite the fact that earlier that day…

The Obamacare lawsuit by Purpura, Laster et al v Sebelius et al, and sponsored by the Jersey Shore Tea Party and several other groups, is the best chance for the grassroots to rid America of this abominable law.  Because Congress wrote the bill hastily, they forgot to include the usual severance clause.  This means if one part of the bill is found…

As a person who loves history, my studies have revealed that many of our founding fathers were influenced by the word of God, that is evident by the statement in the declaration of independence that said, "we are endowed by our creator with unalienable rights," this statement is the basis of our form of government, therefore, as believers we must call on this…

Last Sunday, a news story broke in New York about a Saudi king possibly wanting to buy a bankrupt Catholic hospital, St. Vincent's on West 14th Street in Manhattan, as both a reopened hospital in that Greenwich Village neighborhood  and an alternative site for the Ground Zero mosque.

I happen to know about St. Vincent's from personal experience. They have at least two buildings, not just the one on 14th Street (a former seamen's or longshoreman's union building with porthole…

Judson has just posted his sentiments re the START treaty, and some have not received it well.  Well, you need to know that he is not alone in his judgment on that issue.  In fact, one of the Nation's foremost political observer/commentators has just posted his views on the RINOs who sold us out on START, and his recommendations for remembering them at the voting booth when their terms are up.  He fully validates Judson's objections to START.  Here is today's post form Dick…

About the middle of this month, Dec, 2010, I saw, on a Fox news show (don't know which one as I caught only a glimpse) a written statement from an elected U. S. official which read in part ".....we (the Dem's) need to create an economic crisis, in America, to gain back control of the government and get our adjenda pushed forward."  I put this in quotes, but I can't say every word is absolutely correct.  As I said, I saw it from a glimpse.  I want to know the name of the person who…

Now is the time to bring legislation to every state that has a newly elected Republican Governor.  By introducing bills in these states to make them "Right to Work States" will bring stability and growth to the people of these states and limit Union influence and huge legacy costs being placed on the taxpayers in these slow growth periods. 

A good expample of states going bankrupt are California and Washington.  Both have huge legacy Union costs associated with Union…

One of my favorite Christmas stories is that of the Christmas Truce of 1914. While there were several similar events throughout World War I, the Christmas Truce of 1914 stood out because it was a widespread and unprecedented outbreak of peace in the midst of a horrible war. 

On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in 1914, British and German troops, and some French troops, facing each other in the trenches, began to exchange…

As I was driving back from a hunting trip with friends (Christian friends) last week, I couldn’t help but think how depressing it must be for liberals this time of year. With the major hunting seasons typically starting around November 1^st, before you know it Thanksgiving rolls in after, and then we are, all of a sudden, celebrating the birth of our Savior. Wow, how could November and December be any…
