Nashville's Diminished Council

The Metro Council of my hometown must follow the edict of our state legislature and shrink by half after a ruling by our State's highest court. Nashville will be ruled by twenty rubber stamp Leftists soon instead of the forty under which it has heretofore suffered. 

Titans Almost There

My hometown Tennessee professional football squad traveled up to Cincinnati and almost beat the tough home-standing Bengals. I feared the boys in blue would be trounced after trading away their best player Jeffery Simmons, but they fought hard and nearly upset the great Joe Burrow. Unfortunately a close loss is still a defeat, but the Titans forced overtime and look like they could still achieve some wins this season. 

Are We Puppets?

The Left has done much through its media manipulation arm that comprises almost all dinosaur press and sadly much of social media to dispirit us to tamp down the Republican vote. They have generated "fake" polls to demoralize us into not believing it is even worth going out to cast a ballot. We maintain agency and the means to influence the direction of our governance. Do not let the radicals fool you. Save our nation by voting on Tuesday. 

Nominally Gun Free

Have you ever noticed that most mass shootings occur in places where guns are "banned"? Some people just won't obey a sign, I guess. 

The Incomparable One

When Paul "Bear" Bryant retired as Alabama's football coach, he left with a record that was thought would never be equaled, let alone surpassed. There is no doubt that Bryant remains in the pantheon of coaching greats; yet his tally of championships was in fact eclipsed by Nick Saban. In sport as in life "never" is too long a time to be an apt predictor. 

Running on Time?

Sanchez, the socialist leader of Spain can't seem to make the trains run on time but has managed to have them run into each other, twice now, with fatal effect. Sanchez has turned a beautiful and ordered European nation into a Third World hellhole. 

Israel Election Deadlock

Neither the Netanyahu faction nor the anti-Netanyahu side won sufficient votes to form a government without some sort of coalition drawn in part from the other side. One of the few non-ceremonial duties of Israeli President Isaac Herzog is to pick who will first have a chance to form a government, and due to Herzog's longstanding animus toward Bibi, I am virtually certain that Herzog will give the anti-Netanyahu forces the first crack. These Leftists will try to join with the Arab parties to oust Netanyahu. I pray they fail, because it will weaken the Jewish State immeasurably if Netanyahu is removed in favor of appeasers and Arabs who do not have the best interests of Jews at heart.
