In the newly heated up debates on how best to protect our children in school, the proposal to put an armed police officer in every school certainly has caused another surge of opinions, arguments and passionate replies. I must admit that initially I...
As we sat in horror, watching the news reports and then the president speak of the horrible shooting in Newtown, Connecticut the question of “why” certainly has to be on a lot of people’s minds. There will be the usual demands for all sorts of hopef...
I started writing an Op-Ed on the Right to Work when I stumbled across a name I had forgotten, but pleasantly was reminded of. Gordon Sinclair was an interesting figure in Canadian history who’s single brightest moment may have been his broadcast on...
That is the reported ratio. 98% of Americans will be expected to pay significantly higher taxes so just 2% of the population doesn’t have to pay their share. Doesn’t sound very balanced to me, but then again I’m not a part of that 2%. They were pa...
Black Friday has come and gone and today, which might be better known as Green Monday has come and at the time of this writing, is nearly past … along with an approximate $1.5 Billion dollars in sales to promote that single greatest Anglo Saxon holid...
I've been thinking about this subject for quite some time, reminded of it by the all too rapid events shortly after 9/11 and again by watching the stories unfold concerning the now former CIA director and General Allan. There are a number of issues...
Now that the election is over and all the media hype has dropped to a simple buzz … what’s next? Well, we certainly are going to be watching Congress very closely over the coming weeks to see if they will finally get their act together and come up w...
For those of us that have been Republicans our entire life, last night was yet another conformation to what many of us have known for a very long time. The party has not only lost some of it’s momentum, but more importantly, it has lost touch with t...
So, on day four of Hurricane Sandy, have you done your reality check? You know, walking around your property and wondering what you would do if suddenly your house, your cars, everything you own was gone, and probably would never be entirely replace...
As of today it has been 225 years since the actual signing of the Declaration of Independence in what is now know as Independence Hall. As we have seen, this experiment in democracy has undergone more than a few challenges, some of which continue t...
While maybe not as well known to younger generations, America has been and remains a melting pot of all races, religions, creeds, and diverse points of view. Over the centuries there have been times when one or more of these groups have become the f...
It would be easy to take sides on the delicate issues that teachers and administrators are wrestling with in Chicago this week and if you get right down to brass tacks, a strong argument could be made for both or either case. I think the greater iss...
If you haven’t been watching any of the conventions on TV the past few weeks, you have really missed out on some of the best entertainment available. Forgetting the subject matter, particular party, or any of that diatribe, just listening to some ol...
Over this past summer our state has experienced more incidents of children dying in closed up, over heated automobiles than any time in history. While the weather certainly is a contributing factor, the simple matter of neglect is sharply on the ris...
Contrary to the beliefs of many, this is not an editorial about Penn State, Joe P, or anyone else even slightly of that magnitude. It is about a giant in their field; a person that made an such an impression in that field that they are now held up a...
Once again we are faced with the aftermath of an insidious crime at the hands of a person that has used a semi-automatic weapon to take human life. Once again there will be pro & con on gun ownership, the 2nd amendment, and a call to “do something,...
Tonight I cried. Balled my eyes out, actually when I heard the news that Andy Griffith had passed away. Oh sure, he was 86 and lived a long and propitious life, but I just wasn’t ready to let him go. He was the last of my boyhood role models. Alo...
So, now we know what was on the mind of the Supreme Court. There will be days of analysis and nobody has missed the stunning vote of the Chief Justice. If nothing more comes out of it all, it is that there are still a few minds on the court that ar...
He was my college roommate. His father was a revered Command Sergeant Major and Harry was just an all around good Army officer. During our college days he taught me a great deal about military customs, gorilla tactics and how to handle a long bore...
By now the news is sweeping the nation; but apparently it isn’t creating the degree of social outrage that we would expect if the circumstances were altered. We are, of course, speaking of the sentence today of a mere 30 days plus community service...
