by Robert in Everyday Nonsense | 74 views | Reading Time 3:25

While reading Bill O’Reilly’s book “Culture Warrior,” I ran across a simple statement conjured up from O’Reilly’s mind which makes ultimate sense in an uncommon sense world, “To conquer a nation, destroy the values of its people.” Doesn’t that simplistic statement make absolute sense?

Devilish Money

by Robert in Everyday Nonsense | 115 views | Reading Time 2:34

At times in my life, I have thought that maybe, just maybe, all of the ideas about “how to make money utilizing the latest gimmick” had been mined and thoroughly beaten to a pulp.

Today marks the first time in American history that we have elected a rock star for President.

Obama And Vindication

by Robert in Political Beefs | 131 views | Reading Time 3:20

As I sit here today, less than 24 hours from casting my vote in our Presidential election tomorrow, I have become apathetic. I sit here and wonder how so many of our citizens can be led so blindly as if promised treasures on earth for their vote. I am ashamed of our political process [...]

Journalistic reports from our major media outlets tend to amaze me in the sense of their audacious and sensationalistic approaches to “unbiased” news. However, today, I am utterly amazed.

Once we reach a certain age or position in life, our society, family, and friends expect us to carry ourselves with a level of integrity and dignity.
