You Should Forgive Mark Sanford, But You Don't Have To Forget
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - If Mark Sanford has asked for forgiveness from his God, gone to Confession, and so on, who are we to deny him that same forgiveness? Jesus said "let him who is without sin cast the first stone", are any of us without sin? No. That doesn't mean that we have to FORGET what he has done, because we won't, we can't, that's not in our nature. People can and do change, for the better, and their past is something that they have to accept e….Continue
Interview With Kevin Gutzman On George Washington
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I mentioned earlier that today is the anniversary of George Washington’s first inauguration in New York City. It was a very festive occasion. According to some that witnessed the event, it was also an event that was met with an awful lot of trepidation and dis-certitude. People didn’t know what was going to become of this new government they created. Here to fill us in a little bit about the greatness is Professor Dr. Kevin G….Continue

How President John Quincy Adams Nearly Drowned In Tiber Creek
Mandeville, LA - After discovering that there is a creek that used to flow, almost as mightily as the nearby Potomac River, IN Washington DC but is now paved over by the edifices of government, namely the IRS building, I was intrigued. I became especially curious upon learning that the Tiber Creek nearly claimed the life of then President John Quincy Adams. According to White House historian and essayist William Seale, Quincy Adams' morning ended thus: "The president lay gaspi….Continue
We Are Descendants of Rome Whether We Like It Or Not
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - The framers of the Constitution were well aware of what happened to the Roman Republic and then Empire, and they wanted to avoid the same fate and avoid having another Ceaser ruling the United States. George Washington, sometimes called the American Cincinnatus because of his similarity to the Roman dictator Cincinnatus because of their willingness to give up near-absolute power, was the perfect candidate to be the first President b….Continue

The First Congress: An Inauspicious, Unattended Start
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Approximately 240 years ago the Congress and Senate were supposed to have their first meeting to elect the first President of the United States of America... but not enough Senators showed up to form a quorum. There were enough Congressmen there, but it took them several weeks and numerous letters to get some of the Senators (ahem,Virginia, ahem) there. And of course, when enough finally got to Federal Hall in New York, they electe….Continue

Ron Paul for President of the Republic of Texas?
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Three weeks after Obama's election and the talk of Secession is still going strong... especially in Texas. In fact, Larry Kilgore is running for Governor of Texas and will even change his name to Larry SECEDE Kilgore. But what about Ron Paul? In an interview with Mike earlier in the year he said the he didn't really think Secession was a very good idea... but lately he's changed his mind about it, which he doesn't do very often, so ….Continue
Bombshell: Fox News Tried to Convince Petraeus to Run for President
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Any kind of integrity that Fox News had before this story is gone, the supposed "Fair and Balanced" is completely out the window... Fox News, specifically Roger Ailes, tried to enlist General Petraeus as a presidential candidate in Spring of 2011. There's even an audio recording of the conversation between Fox News analyst K.T. McFarland and General Petraeus where he says he has not interest in running for President and that Rupert ….Continue
CRAZY TALK: Substituting SOLUTIONS for Presidential Elections!?
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - Leo Linbeck at The Imaginative Conservative has an article called "Why Congress Doesn't Work: Undermining Self-government" where he says that the problems with our government are SO complex and SO huge that we basically choose to ignore them and focus on something else (the Presidential Election). One man can't solve everything that's wrong with our government, but that's all the American sheople and media are focused on, becau….Continue
Is Obsessing Over the Presidential Election a Wise Thing To Do?
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - As a Conservative, why would you want to obsess over the Presidential Election? You're obsessing over the centralization of power. The more time we spend worrying about what one guy is doing or has done, continues the cycle that many Americans believe that he has all the power. Republicans have controlled the Presidency for almost 2/3's of the time since 1960, but what has happened to government? It has continued to expand. Check ….Continue
"Executive Privilege" Would Not be an Issue Had We Listened to Patrick Henry
Monday,June 9, 1788. Mandeville, LA - Perhaps instead of trading barbs in the fashion of "well Bush did it" followed by "yeah but Obama has doubled down on it...and Karl Rove s--ks anyways!" it would be more productive to ask WHY we have an Executive to start with and all his attendant agencies which bequeath these tyrannical powers? During the debates over ratification in the VA Convention, Patrick Henry looked into that most prescient of crystal balls that must have been ….Continue
We Elect Presidents Not CEOs
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - The problem I have with the Romney as the businessman point of view and Tom Schatz’s editorial in the Washington Times, that “America needs a leader with proven private-sector experience,” is that private sector experience doesn’t do anything and doesn’t inform anyone who is supposed to be discharging the duties of commander in chief and of vetoing or basically being the caretaker of wh….Continue

Introducing "The Daily [r]epublican"!
[The powerful Executive branch]...converts representation into vassalage to the leaders of parties, disciplined, not by the comparatively honourable infliction of the lash, but by the base and wicked sophism, that it is honourable to stick to a party, and treacherous to adhere to conscience. The disciples of this infamous doctrine are forged into tools for ambition and tyranny by praises and rewards, whilst honesty is discouraged by base epithets, as a foil to the varnish with which the decoys are painted, designed to deceive and enslave the multitude
John Taylor of Caroline from his 1814 book "An Inquiry Into the Principles & Policy of the Government of the United States"
