My writing inspiration comes from two primary sources – God and Life. God, through the Holy Spirit, gives me the prompting to go in this direction or that direction … then I go. My other source of inspiration comes from just living life. For example, in early June on my radio show, “Joshua’s Trial,” a caller asked me pointedly, “Professor Washington, what do you think about Hegel’s theories? You need to write an article on Hegelian dialectic.”
In modern times, Obama and the Democratic Party lives only to deconstruct America’s proud Constitutional heritage and to eradicate all that is good, worthy, Christian, and true. We the People, America, must not fall victim to Obama’s destructive plans for progressive/regressive demonization of this country’s great historical legacy: for us and for all humanity, but to learn the valuable lessons from Captain Ahab’s lethal follies and not fall prey—to reject the paradigm of death represented by the eternal hatred of Hitler, the obsession of Ahab and the anti-constitution, anti-American policies of President Barak Obama.
Justice Thomas was born 65 years ago this day in the little town of Pin Point, Ga. This tribute essay celebrates the Natural Law and originalist jurisprudence of Thomas, which mandates a synthesis between legality and morality. For 23 years now, Justice Thomas has almost single-handedly upheld a reverential respect, reliance and expertise for the original ideals and intent of the constitutional framers that is tantamount to the transcendent.
Edward Snowden, a 29-year-old college dropout and contract computer analyst for the National Security Administration has leaked very sensitive information of national concern, which can harm all Americans by putting our safety in jeopardy by alerting America’s enemies of our vulnerabilities. Snowden, in violating his oath of secrecy, was unrepentant: “Everyone everywhere now understands how bad things have gotten – and they’re talking about it. They have the power to decide for themselves whether they are willing to sacrifice their privacy to the surveillance state.”
Can Bob Dole, Joe Scarborough and Chris Christie fix the Republican Party? Former GOP Senate leader Bob Dole, who lost his presidential bid against Bill Clinton in 1996, answered that essential question in his blunt way during a Memorial Day weekend interview with Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday: “I think they ought to put a sign on the national committee doors that says closed for repairs until New Year’s Day next year,” Dole said, “and spend that time going over ideas and positive agendas.”
Introduction: My father is Professor Ellis Washington, a legal commentator. In his 2011 WND.com article, “Letter to Generation Y” he is trying to help his professor friend, Professor Leonard McCoy’s son, Rashaan Thompson, a member of Gen. Y, to get back on the right track so he can go back to college as a freshman and have a successful career and a beautiful life in the future.
Most conservatives, including radio icon Mark Levin, have nothing but utter contempt toward Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. and his acolyte, Sen. Lindsay Graham, calling them “media whores” for constantly pushing amnesty for illegal aliens, their incessant strivings to always be in the media eye and especially for their frequent claims of being a “conservative” while at every opportunity slandering young Turk conservatives like Sens. Mike Lee, R-Utah, Rand Paul, R-Ky., Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and my favorite, Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
I can clearly remember that fateful day filled with lachrymose as if it were yesterday: a transcendent day inside the reading room of Ms. Mirandi’s fifth-grade at Lillibridge Elementary, Detroit, Mich. I was 10 years old. By “reading room” I mean a corner of the classroom decorated like a library. There were three or four nice decorative chairs, a small sofa, a Persian rug, a coffee table, a lamp and, of course, the epitome of that wonderful space … a bookshelf filled with classical books.
Rudi Dutschke, the German student-movement leader, in 1967 reformulated Antonio Gramsci’s philosophy of cultural hegemony with the phrase Der lange Marsch durch die Institutionen (The Long March through the Institutions) – an overt war metaphor harkening back to Mao’s Long March (1934–35) of the Communist Chinese People’s Liberation Army. Democrat Socialists throughout Europe, Russia, South America and here in America used “The Long March through the Institutions,” where the working class, through persistence and force, would fabricate their own organic intellectuals and culture (dominant ideology) to replace those imposed by the bourgeoisie.
“The corruption, crime, and incompetence of the D.C. government has been an embarrassment to our nation’s capital for decades. It is long past time that Congress restored the honor and integrity of George Washington to the beautiful city which bears his name.” ~ Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), speaking on the BOWSER Act “It is […]
Fifth Circuit’s Ruling against “Nasdaq Board Diversity Rule” Safeguards Meritocracy Over Mediocrity
“The evidence presented by Nasdaq in its rule proposal, contrary to its claims, does not show that board diversity provides better returns for shareholders.” ~Excerpt from a Manhattan Institute led amicus curiae brief in the case of Alliance for Fair Board Recruitment vs. SEC. “We will terminate every diversity, equity, and inclusion program across the […]
The Keep Nine Amendment: A Permanent Solution to Threats of Court-Packing
“I think that was a bad idea when President Franklin Delano Roosevelt tried to pack the court. If anything would make the court appear more partisan, it would be that. So, I am not at all in favor of that solution. Nine seems to be a good number. It’s been that way for a […]
