Movie: “Choice”

This is from 1964: Daniel McCarthy explains: I’d heard a lot about “Choice,” the campaign film Clif White instigated for Goldwater in 1964 but that the candidate ultimately vetoed. Until it appeared on YouTube, however, I hadn’t seen the program in full. It’s a doozy: fast cars, fast women, John Wayne. And more problematically, scenes …

UPDATED – It’s official: The Obama Administration is in deep trouble and I am done defending them

My friends, I was very, very wrong and for that, I am terribly sorry. I said that I believed that the entire Benghazi, Libya debacle was over-hyped by the Republicans; and I still believe that, to a point. However, there are many things that have come up since then, which I simply cannot defend. They are: The IRS …

Remembering Cesar Chavez

Honestly, I really do not know what this here is all about. However, I will say this, most Neoconservatives hate unions, which is why Google is getting poo-poo’ed by the so-called right. On the other hand, Pat Buchanan has always written pieces that defended the American and Detroit auto workers; and yes, Unions. The UFW …

The Saturday Night Music Express Presents: Steppenwolf

This is a song that I really never knew existed. It is from the late 1960′s. The lyrics are as relevant today as they were back when this song was originally recorded. Also know this: There are some images in this video, as it was made by a fan, that I simply do not agree with. Some …

Digging up Atwater’s corpse.

The left is in full on, “Let’s destroy the right” mode it seems; the reason I say this, is because of the new video that the far-leftist magazine, The Nation, has put out. The Video: Transcript: You start out in 1954 by saying, “Nigger, nigger, nigger.” By 1968 you can’t say “nigger”—that hurts you, backfires. …

The Saturday Night Music Express Presents: Eric Clapton

On a chilly Detroit night like tonight, there’s nothing like a little “slowhand” to warm the soul. The funny and ironic thing about this song is that, during the verses section of this tune. The drummer is actually playing the wrong beat. Great song, just the drumming was wildly off on the verses part. I …

Mob of black teens overrun a Detroit gas station and rob it

Please note: This report is not about racial hatred or bigotry; this is about the realities of living in Detroit and the out of control black hoodlums that control that city and the incompetent and racially biased Police that supposedly protect that god-forsaken city.  —- This is a personal story for me, I live in …

It seems that in Ohio, there has been a decline in voter registration, especially in Democratic Party strongholds. This is also signaling a national trend. Here is the Story …

The Saturday Night Music Express Presents: Jimi Hendrix

I have made it no secret on this blog and my old one; that I am, in fact, a die-hard Jimi Hendrix fan. A good part of who and what I am today is because of this man’s music. The biggest thing that I learned from Hendrix and his music was to never accept what …
