Margaret Sullivan, a pro-abortionist who scribbles for the Washington Post, was on the Diane Rehm Show, a popular NPR talk show. …

Continue reading "Iowa caucuses & New Hampshire primary approach"By Dave Andrusko I’d like to draw from two sources to make a point you will not see often conceded by the mainstream media: the enormous effectiveness/impact of the get-out-the-vote work of National Right to Life and its state affiliates. The first comes from the Associated Press’ John Hanna. Writing about Kansas, Hanna’s lead …

As an old-fashioned patriotic type, I believe it is our civil—and moral obligation—to take responsibility for shaping our democracy, but I know that many others are convinced there are other “better” uses of their time.
