The Scene in Bloody Kansas
Don’t miss this excellent article about the abortion fight in Kansas from National Review Online.
This fight has everything… a lawless, baby killing doctor , a heroic District Attorney, an attractive Roman Catholic Governor often suggested as a Vice Presidential possibility, a Bishop who has rebuked said pretty little governor, and “a team of monks squirreled [...]
Chapter Two: Foreign Policy
Paul begins the substantial part of his book by taking up the issue which has probably gained him the most notoriety. Among leading Republicans, Paul has been virtually a solitary voice against the interventionist wars of recent years, encompassing both the Bush and Clinton administrations. Paul reminds us in this chapter of the noninterventionist foreign [...]
War, Empire, and the Right
It is hard to permanently cut off the past. Ghosts have a way of appearing when you least expect it. During the 1950’s American conservatism was struggling. Two world wars, the Great Depression, and the massive centralization that followed defeated the Old Right foot, pike, and dragoons. Mr. Republican, Senator Robert [...]
What is the RP/Ron Paul Connection?
I was a Presbytery a couple weeks ago and noticed that Ron Paul had much more support among St. Lawrence Presbytery teaching and ruling elders than I would have imagined. Shocking since Paul is the least likely of candidate to want to impose morality on the masses.
I would have guessed a good [...]
The Revolution: Chapter One
I was quite befuddled after I discovered a few weeks ago that Ron Paul had a new book out on the market. Isn’t it a little late for a book from this guy? He’s a loser, a has-been. Who would want to read this book now? Why wasn’t this book published six months ago? What [...]
Nothing Gold Can Stay
I appreciate where the W2K guys are coming from but I am sure that the two table division of the Decalogue really holds water, at least as they have frame it. I certainly understand what you are wanting to do. Certainly the first table must work differently within the context of a society than [...]
Ron Paul in the New York Times
To help celebrate your Ron Paul Memorial Day weekend. Here.
Charles is on to something here. What better way to remember those who have sacrificed all for their country than by joining the Ron Paul revolution. Let’s make sure that our sons and daughters in uniform are called to lay down their lives [...]
Make It A Ron Paul Memorial Day Weekend
I paid $4.14/gallon for gas last night, so I won’t be traveling this weekend. Plus, it’s 55 degrees right now in Chicago, so it’s not the best time to be outside, either. What, then, will I be doing this weekend? In between a few household chores, I plan to begin blogging through Ron Paul’s new [...]
W2K and Abortion
Let me hop in here for a comment turned post.
The W2K positions sounds great if you are Daniel in Babylon or even a Christian serving in the Chinese government. But is this our situation?
Rather, we in the West have a right to appeal both to nature and the Decalogue because [...]
The Way of the Future
This is certainly the upside of peak oil.
What will they think of next?
