    Democrats Have Nothing to Fear but Losing Black Votes

    Donald Trump's outreach to black voters was predictably met with unbridled, laughably over-the-top scorn and derision from Democrats and their media allies – media allies who at this point are so blatantly unfair that one might think they w...

    #NeverTrump: The media is using you as pawns. Don't let them.

    The media's unbridled giddiness over the #NeverTrump camp's worsening Trump Derangement Syndrome is palpable. Without delving into the debate on the merits of the #NeverTrump movement, it is painfully clear that at this point, the #NeverTr...

    Donald Trump Isn't the Problem. Trump Derangement Syndrome Is.

    Meet the insufferable Chuck Todd

    If you're a news junkie like me, you may have the misfortune of watching Meet the Press on Sunday mornings.  Once a beacon of journalistic integrity, Meet the Press has devolved into a mouthpiece for the left and the Democratic Party, with N...

    The White Privilege Lie

    Of all the invectives launched against the United States by the resurgent American Left, the charge that in America, White Privilege reigns supreme is the most insidious and culturally ruinous.   Its intent is unambiguous: leftists perpetuate...

    The Great Race Hoax

    When Barack Obama rose to national prominence following his 2004 keynote address at the Democratic National Convention, his African-American heritage was a footnote to the fawning reception he received from the media and from most Americans. While th...

    The Religious Left's Moral Fallacy

    President Obama is pivoting once again to decrying the alleged sin of income inequality -- the left's perennial and favorite class-warfare theme.  At the same time, the religious left is becoming more vocal in American politics, couching it...

    Why the Left Really is against Voter ID Laws

    The crusade against voter ID laws is the new front in the Left's perennial campaign to convince Americans that Jim Crow is lurking just around the corner. Left-wing activists and Democrat politicians argue that these laws disproportionately disqual...

    The Truth about Rap Music

    I listen to rap. I grew up listening to rap. Since I was old enough to enjoy music, rap has been one of my favorite genres. It remains so to this day. I'm not just talking about mainstream or party-mix rap. I am talking about hard-core rap, undergro...
