As gratifying as the prospect is of a Marine Le Pen and National Rally win in April’s National elections in France, it is dangerous to assume that she will lead from the right in all matters. Her economic philosophy is protectionist more than anything else, and her fiscal policies focus on redirection of government spending…

The Morning Rant: NJ Republican Party Is Pathetic
Tip O’Neill famously, and accurately said, “All politics is local.” Well…mostly accurate, but it’s good enough for government work. State parties are where the heavy lifting is done, and solid ones have tremendous influence over the direction their states — and the country — go! But let us discuss the lousy ones! Yes, there will…
The Nobel Peace Prize Is Neither Noble Nor Supportive Of Peace!
Navi Pillay just won the Nobel Peace Prize, and for those of you who are thinking…”Who,” (I’m one of them) you would be entirely correct. She is an apparatchik in the international justice racket, first serving as a judge in South Africa..a well-known bastion of the rule of law! She then moved on to the…
The Morning Rant: Gas Taxes
Cutting taxes is always…ALWAYS…a good idea. The leviathan needs to be fed to live, and cutting taxes decreases what our feckless and cowardly legislators can spend. Except…it doesn’t. they are happy to spend money we don’t have, simply by borrowing from the world. And $40 trillion later, that is one hell of a bill coming…
The Morning Rant: The United States Senate: Theater Of The Absurd
The klown kar that is the United States Senate regularly belches forth a gaggle of meticulously coiffed morons in $2,000 suits who spout carefully crafted non sequiturs and focus-group-tested punch lines about the topic de jour. Then, without another word they pile back into the kar to be driven to a corporate cocktail party to…
Reverse Assimilation…70 Years Old And Going Strong
The standard — and correct — complaint about the immigrants of the last few generations is that they do not assimilate. Never mind the illegal ones…even legal immigration policies have lost sight of the basic concept that preservation of our traditional culture is a good thing. We need no justification to try to protect traditional…
The Morning Rant: Botched Execution…Tennessee Style!
The massive, all-encompassing incompetence of most government is on full display today! Humanity has spent its entire history getting better and better at killing each other, yet the Tennessee Department of Corrections can’t manage to knock off somebody who is already strapped to a f*cking gurney? In our culture’s drive to make everything painless, including…
The Morning Rant: CAFE Is Neutered, But Not Dead Yet!
The pathetic and impossible manipulations of the automobile market perpetrated by a series of ignorant administrations came to a head with the drooling imbecile figurehead named Joe Biden. Mandating an impossible 50 miles/gallon for 2031 was wishcasting on a grand scale. It is impossible to achieve without destroying the market for large automobiles and shifting…
WEATHER! WEATHER! WEATHER!
The hysterical overreaction to a run-of-the-mill autumn Nor’Easter that is currently hitting the northeast is embarrassing, and there is plenty to be embarrassed about when there isn’t some rain and wind! It is — of course — driven by the frantic desire of the so-called “elites” and their lackeys in the compliant media for more…
The Morning Rant
The latest lunacy in western Massachusetts sounded like a parody of the worst excesses of the self-absorbed LGTBBQ activist set that takes literally every human interaction and views it through their own, deeply disturbed lens. But it was real, and it was spectacular! They couldn’t help themselves! They dialed it to 11 and signaled to…
