Censoring People’s Thoughts

sunbeam November 30, 2018 Comments Off

Political correctness is the bane of right thinking people. In reality PC is a form of censorship. By not allowing certain forms of speech, the left hopes to control people’s thinking in a very specific way. And that is what PC is. It is training people’s thinking. Thinking outside the box is discouraged as being evil in some way.

For example, opposition to the open borders policies of the Democrats will quickly get one labeled as a bigot, racist, etc., among left wing types. They will call you a hater of women and children. The sole purpose of such activity is to suppress any dissent from the Democratic policy goals. Any discussion of the real facts will be labeled as lies and propaganda. Such attempts at espousing real facts will quickly earn you the title of deplorable. ...

Tijuana

sunbeam November 29, 2018 Comments Off

Over the weekend 500 to 1000 migrants from Central America decided to try to invade the country from Tijuana. The showdown at the San Diego-Tijuana border crossing has contrasted two competing narratives about the caravan of migrants hoping to come into America but stuck on the Mexican side. Some see them as a threat to U.S. national security. Others insist that they are primarily women and children fleeing violence.

So what was the truth? There are women and children in the caravan. But, they are a minority. The U.S. Border Patrol’s top agent in the San Diego region said the migrants used some women and children as human shields as they hurled rocks and debris at officers guarding a fence. ...

Hillary Clinton Opposes Open Borders

sunbeam November 28, 2018 Comments Off

In an interview with The Guardian last Thursday Hillary Clinton came out against the unrestricted flow of migrants into Europe. This has shaken Democratic politicians to the core. Democrats have been unrestrained in their support of an “open borders” policy in America as well as in their criticism of PDJT’s policies on our southern border with Mexico.

Hillary Clinton said that immigration reform, “not open borders,” is needed “on both sides of the Atlantic.” “I think Europe needs to get a handle on migration because that is what lit the flame.” Is this a trial balloon to see if she can garner support for another run at the Presidency? She knows that the issue resonates with significant portions of the American electorate.

Dems Propose Gun Confiscation

sunbeam November 27, 2018 Comments Off

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) raised some eyebrows last week when he once again resurrected the idea of banning and confiscating “assault rifles.” See here,hereand here. The fact that Swalwell is a card-carrying member of the anti-liberty movement should come as no surprise to anyone. He has proposed gun confiscation measures before.

He does not believe in the principle of property rights and very limited government. He is part of a group of politicians who believe that American politics is really the government versus the people. ...

On a weekend when we express thanks and gratitude for all the blessings we have in America, certainly recognizing our first responders for the risks they take should be near the top of the list.

How To Do A Wrap-up Smear

sunbeam November 23, 2018 Comments Off

Rep. Nancy Pelosi talks about a campaign tactic known as the wrap-up smear. This was back in 2017. This certainly tracks very closely with Democratic tactics in general and specifically with the Trump-Russia story and the Kavanaugh smear.

Take a listen.

Happy Thanksgiving

A tip of the hat to Kemberlee Kaye

We are the only country in history to have an entire holiday devoted to intentional, mindful gratitude. That’s how Thanksgiving began. It is how it should remain — a celebration of our blessings, the love we’ve been given, and all the other bits that make this life a beautiful place.

And thank God you live in America, an exceptional country.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Gives Economics Studies A Bad Name

sunbeam November 21, 2018 Comments Off

While there have been members of Congress who were not blessed with great intelligence, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from NYC, who will take office in January, takes the cake.

She has a bachelor’s degree in economics from Boston University. After four years, (and nearly $300,000 list price), the school promises that BU economics majors will depart “with a firm understanding of core microeconomic and macroeconomic theory” and the “empirical skills that are essential to applying economic reasoning in our increasingly data-driven world.”

Given the above how does one explain the absolute economic illiteracy of this media darling who would make Sarah Palin look like a genius? The Economics Department of BU must cringe every time she shows up on TV. She is certainly not a glowing ad for the merits of their degree program.

Take a listen.

How Will House Democrats Govern?

sunbeam November 20, 2018 Comments Off

Success in the midterm elections secured power for House Democrats. This returned them to majority party status in the House for the 1^sttime since 2010. How will the Democrats use that power? Representative David Cicilline, co-chair of the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee, in a combative interview revealed much of the party’s agenda.

Camp Fire Cause

sunbeam November 19, 2018 Comments Off

The Camp Fire in California is being touted as the worst wildfire in the state’s history. The town of Paradise has effectively been wiped off the map by the fire. Approx. 90% of the structures in the town have been reduced to ashes. The devastation is difficult to describe. The video below is not for the faint of heart.
