Those Who Won't Vote for Trump Because They Loathe Him Are Simply Childish!
A great many Americans claim that they cannot vote for former President Donald Trump because they loathe him.
That was also their argument in 2016 and 2020.
That argument was childish in 2016 and 2020, and it remains childish in 2024.
I say "childish" because mature people don't vote on the basis of whom they like. They vote on the basis of ...Read more
Almost Half of NYC Bus Riders Don't Pay or Left Wing Panic!
This is the headline of an article published Aug. 26 in the New York Times: "Fare Evasion Surges on N.Y.C. Buses, Where 48% of Riders Fail to Pay."
The article begins: "Every weekday in New York City, close to one million bus riders -- roughly one out of every two passengers -- board without paying.
"Fare evasion has led to startling financial...Read more
The Woke 2024 Olympics: Where Men Were Allowed to Punch Women!
This past weekend, two biologically male boxers won gold medals in women's boxing at the Paris Olympics. On Friday, Imane Khelif of Algeria won the gold medal in the women's welterweight division. On Saturday, Lin Yu-Ting of Taiwan won the gold medal in the women's featherweight division.

The Left Does Not Hate Religion; It Hates Christianity!
I am a Jew, not a Christian. Yet I found loathsome the mockery of the Last Supper -- one of the holiest scenes in the New Testament -- during the opening of the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
In fact, it is actually troubling to constantly read the words, "Many Christians are offended" -- as if only Christians are offended by France's and the ...Read more
A Great Convention -- With One Big Mistake
I have attended about a half-dozen national conventions, Republican and Democratic, and watched at least a dozen more. And I can say two things: 1) They have all generally bored me. 2) The 2024 Republican National Convention didn't. The RNC not only held my interest, it often moved me emotionally.
If you weren't moved to tears by the families ...Read more
An Assassination Attempt Was Inevitable!
There are consequences to virtually every mainstream media, office-holding Democrat and left-wing academic labeling former President Donald Trump a Nazi, a fascist, a white supremacist and a mortal threat to American democracy. One consequence is that more than a few people will want Trump dead -- killed, if necessary; who would not want such an...Read more
More People Are Killed in the Name of Equality Than in the Name of God!
Almost anyone who has graduated from college in the last 50 years has repeatedly heard the statement, "More people have been killed in the name of God than in the name of anything else." And most of them believe it.
It would take a long essay to respond to this claim. I will therefore only note here that if by "God" the people who make this ...Read more
A Better People Than the Palestinians? Germans, Even During the Hitler Era (so yeah, Nazis!)
Immediately after the burnings, rapes, mutilations and murders of Jews on Oct. 7, I was not alone in noting the one moral difference between Hamas and the Nazis: The Nazis tried to hide their crimes against the Jews from the German people (and the world) while Hamas proudly publicized their crimes against the Jews to the Palestinian people (and ...Read more
