My Prayer Closet (2011)
Under the Tower of Babel (1995)
Solomon wrote there will be no end of the writing of books. If he lived now, he would decry the endless cacophony of electronic verbiage. Page after page of endless, mindless tripe. People selling something; people saying something. No body reading anything! If the page doesn't have pictures, [click] the viewer is gone. Everyone is looking for entertainment. No one is looking for substance. But we keep on writing and we think someone will read it. Oh, how we deceive ourselves -- convinced of our own immortality. Words, words, words . . . - cominus

From the Archive: A Speech To the Constitution Party
[This is an old speech but it is not out of date. The names and faces may have changed but the issues are even more clear today.] In his article for the Monroe Weekly entitled, CONSERVATIVES: MAKE EVERY VOTE COUNT, Paul Elvig wrote: Ralph Reed, the former executive director of the Christian Coalition (1989-97), asserted [...]
The Misery I Have Been Spared
As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins . . . But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ . . . And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, [...]
This Cartoon From 1934 Describes Our Government Today
This cartoon is just as true today as it was in 1934. Government makes the problem, blames private enterprise and offers the solution of greater regulation and taxes. To think we can spend our way to prosperity will surely lead us into slavery to our leaders.

Restoring the Nation Begins with the Body of Christ
This is from David Crowe: RestoreAmerica.org Last week I wrote “there is a great spiritual awakening occurring in America and around the world. . . but will it lead to revival and restoration in America, as a nation whose God is the LORD?” As powerful as God’s Grace is to deliver us from sin, shame [...]

Do Conservatives Need to Get Beyond Reagan?
The following is adapted from a speech delivered by Rush Limbaugh on December 4, 2008, at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C., on the occasion of the ninth annual Hillsdale College Churchill Dinner.

Barack Obama and the Weathermen
© Tom DeWeese, December 22, 2008 Since just before the election of Barack Obama in November, it has been interesting and quite shocking that a forty-year old, seemingly forgotten radical group called “Weatherman” is getting so much attention. Of course, Obama denies any connection to old Weathermen. Here’s a quick history of the “Weathermen” and [...]
Why I Am No Longer Selling On eBay
[click on the image for a larger view] It is clear from this image, my ratings are higher than eBay averages in every category, yet eBay claims I am failing in policy compliance. I tried to negotiate with them, but they will not talk – except for the form letter that talked down to me [...]
What this Country Needs – Good Old All-American Alcoholism!
The mission was to meet a truck in Spokane, take some photos of the truck and the mining equipment it was hauling. The company wanted to get the photos on the website. Accustomed as I am to accepting time-consuming projects that promise adventure but lack any remuneration, I readily accepted the task. Besides, this was [...]
My Cat, Panda
copyright 1996, Dean Isaacson It was a beautiful morning. I walked out the door and stood on the porch, surveying the landscape and breathing the morning country air. The farmers weren’t spraying the money this morning, so the air was pretty fresh. I was getting ready for my morning jog. “It is so good to [...]
