The Conservative Sage

 When blacks are presumably unfairly stopped by the police in certain neighborhoods has long been termed Driving While Black. In recent years many blacks have been challenged while shopping and  assumed not to have money to afford certain purchases. This was highlighted during a much publicized incident involving Oprah Winfrey while shopping in Switzerland - which is now termed Shopping While Black . Every black person-right or wrong has a story of being followed while shopping; or claims of being questioned by clerks about the cost or their capability to pay-suspicions that have plagued blacks for decades. Unfortunately these stigmas have been hijacked by propagandist in order to obfuscate truly degenerate and often times criminal behavior which is taking place throughout America's inner cities. Case in point: "The Knockout game" whereby groups of blacks youth sucker punch random strangers in order to render them unconscientious with a single blow. This crime wave have...

The Island of Puerto Rico has long debated the issue of statehood. For the sake of the US I would hope that it would reconsider the idea-we already have Illinois. Once again we see the disastrous results of  liberal economic policies. In 2008 Puerto Rico elected Luis Fortuno of the New Progressive Party as Governor. In spite of the leftist connotation of his party's name, Mr. Fortuno's policies were very much conservative. Faced with a $3.3 billion deficit he cut income taxes by half, reduced the corporate income tax from 39% to 30% and eliminated over 38,000 government jobs. the tax cuts apparently worked in that the island experienced a jump in investment and made modest economic gains in 2012. Unfortunate for Mr. Fortuno, his success was short lived. The public unions that make up one-third of the Island's workforce expressed their displeasure by voting him out of office. Mr. Fortuno was replaced by their candidate, Alejandro Garcia Padilla of the Popular Democratic Pa...

When Barack Obama was elected the left celebrated as if it was a dawn of a new age. There were claims that we would have renewed respect in the world, a shift from the days where we were hated during the evil George W. Bush/Cheney regime. Some felt that so called "green jobs" would magically reign down from Washington and happy days would be here again. Well things haven"t quite worked out that way. Five years into Obama's Presidency our allies Germany, Brazil, and Israel among others are disgusted with us at the moment due to the NSA spying scandal. Brazil's President Dilma Roussef was so peeved that she canceled a planned state visit- I don't remember many of our allies canceling state visits during W's terms. Saudi Arabia's former ambassador announced recently that they will no longer favor the US in arms deals. Poland learned that the Obama administration favors its relationship with Putin over them. Our unemployment has hovered around 7.5% for ...

The City Of Detroit's economic woes have been in the headlines for many years. Its bankruptcy has been well covered in the media for the past several  months. Urban blight, corruption, job loss, crime, loss of population and massive debt will keep the city on its heels for years to come. Detroit is one of many city's that have become synonymous with  Economic decay. Cities like Philadelphia, Baltimore, Newark, New Orleans, and St. Louis are not far behind. These cities boast large numbers of blacks and redundantly Democratic liberal voters; Detroit has not elected a Republican mayor since 1962. According to Bay Area Center For Voting Research, Detroit is the most Liberal Large City in America. The last half century in Detroit has been a black liberal paradise; majority black population, union control, black majority in city council and its had exclusively black Mayors since 1974. 50 years of liberal dominance has resulted in a perplexing social and economic basket case. Detr...

Just weeks after a crazed navy contractor walked into a Navy installation in Washington D.C. and gunned down a dozen people, Los Angeles airport is the latest bloody scene. A 23 year old obviously disturbed individual carrying an assault rifle walked through the front door of LAX and when he was through, a TSA agent lay dead. The tragic pattern has been that every few months in America we are forced to endure one of the mass shootings. Are to accept that this as a way of life? In spite of all the great things about our country, the inconvenient truth is that we have increasingly deteriorating mental health. What's the solution? I'm not sure however we have to do something or else America will become Israel where every 100 feet you are likely to see an armed soldier standing guard outside any establishment. Are we there yet?
