In a world of death and suffering

Last updated on: May 28, 2016 at 7:10 am By Dave Griffey

This story is so important to the liberal media. Why? Because it’s the tool being used to destroy rights and freedoms, that’s why. Otherwise, why would we even care? Really. Not that people don’t matter, but where are the stories about people who do other quirky things not currently being used to undermine liberty and freedom in America? Read more

Not Trump for a reason

Last updated on: May 27, 2016 at 8:48 pm By Dave Griffey

This. Once again, the Don says he will do something and then, only days later, goes back on his word. How many times has he said one thing and then done another, pledged to do something and then backed down, or denied that he said it, or did whatever and said whatever and then later did something the opposite? For all I know, if elected he would announce he’s no longer a Republican, embraces everything the Democrats have to offer,... Read more

Another take on Hiroshima

Last updated on: May 27, 2016 at 4:23 pm By Dave Griffey

I agree, Japan should apologize to us and everyone else, including Japanese victims of the war Courtesy of Donald McClarey over at The American Catholic. The entire piece is worth the read, but the list of ‘regrets’ that it might be nice to see coming from our national leaders is the point. As I’ve already written about here and here, I can see both sides, and as a Christian, I tend to err on the side of wishing the bombs hadn’t been... Read more

A Memorial Day story

Worth reading, if only because of the poetry in the events. Salute them all. They were better than we have become. May God bless him and bring peace to him and those who love him. Read more

The New Media

Last updated on: May 27, 2016 at 3:16 pm By Dave Griffey

An interesting article at The New York Times. The new billionaires and their growing control over the media. By now I hope there is not one person left on the planet who thinks journalists pass through some magical magnetic field that strips them of all biases and agendas. By now I hope we know that media is, and likely always has been, biased. What is happening now, however, is a new spin on the old Hearst ‘kill Kane/puff Graham’... Read more

Just because I won’t support Trump, or don’t particularly like the man, doesn’t mean I’ll accept anything and everything said about him that cometh from the mouth of the media. So I was watching CNN report on his battle with Elizabeth Warren, who is also someone I don’t care for. Anyway, they said that in addition to blasting Warren over her fabled Native American Ancestry kerfuffle, he made a swipe at Native Americans. I watched the clip they showed, and... Read more

I am not into Superhero movies as a general rule

Last updated on: May 27, 2016 at 12:29 pm By Dave Griffey

But I have to admit, this makes me smile. I watched the first Avengers movie with my sons, and found it to be one of those movies that ended up watchable despite itself. Part of it is due to things like the below scene, with enough subtlety to let your mind take over and ponder things that the director and writers could never imagine. Read more
