Red, Black and Blue: Comments on the recent inhospitable treatment of a Portland Police Officer

(Please ignore the outdated layout of the site, we are currently working on a new look.)
My hope is that the income for this small business will quadruple by year’s end and they will have to add jobs to handle the extra business.
It is not often that opportunities to bring a community together crop [...]

Oregon’s Congressional District #1 Primary Concession Statement

To all my friends, supporters, volunteers and family, thank you for your support in the primary campaign. Without your support, and by the grace of God, I would not have had a chance. With about one tenth of the funding, but with a solid team of volunteers focused on the efficient use of [...]

Military, Liberalism and the Resistance

This is my final tidbit prior to the May 18th primary and I am both excited and optimistic. This is an unusual election cycle and the feeling is that the conventional wisdom about successful political campaigns is not as relevant as in years past. Just how unusual we will find out on May [...]

Mother’s Day

I have heard it said that Fred Astaire was a great dancer but actually Ginger Rogers was the unsung hero because she did everything Fred did but backwards and on high heels.

United States: Attack from within

“Let us disappoint the men who are raising themselves upon the ruin of this Country.” – John Adams
I’m glad we have a country and a Constitution set up so that we are able to have a peaceful revolution from time to time. It is critical that we uphold that mechanism which is the Constitution. [...]

Economic coffin: One nail at a time

I have written about my concerns on current healthcare, energy and economic policy, among other issues. It is my belief that big government and higher taxes are never a viable long term solution.
It is clear, especially over the last year, that the current administration sees government control of large sectors of the [...]

Humane solutions to the illegal alien problem

As a naturalized citizen other immigrants and new Americans often come to me to tell me their stories. I love hearing the stories. I like to ask questions, and I usually get the same answers to things like: So why did you choose to come to the United States? Resounding answer: [...]
