Reflections of An Uncommon Common Man

 The 1619 Project was launched by professor Nicole Hannah-Jones in 2019 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of slaves landing on this continent at Jamestown Virginia. It was strongly promoted by the New York Times and won the Pulitzer Prize for commentary in 2020. Like everything else the left, and satan, the father of all lies promotes, it is based on a lie. It's thesis is that the United States was founded in 1619 when the first slaves were brought to America. The only problem with this view of things is that Jamestown was an English colony. The United States wasn't created until July 4th 1776 when we declared our independence from England. According to the 1619 Project the only reason that we rebelled against England was to protect slavery from being abolished. Hannah-Jones claims everything that is wrong with America is tied to our original sin of slavery. From segregation to traffic jams. I am not joking. She believes traffic jams are racist. Unfortunately her thesis is b

   For as long as I can remember I have heard people ask the question, how could a nation like Germany allow themselves to follow a mad man like Adolph Hitler. How could a nation that produced so many great minds and such a rich culture fall prey to such a monstrous evil as the Holocaust? My mother told me many times how the German people were known for their intelligence and rich culture. I was born in 1950. Only five years after the end of WW2. In my youth the men and women who fought that war overseas and here on the home front were still young themselves. Almost every adult that I knew had a war story to share or a recollection of what life was like in Nashville during the war. Intellectuals and historians would ask the question. Could it happen in America? That question always seemed ridiculous to me. America was too exceptional to fall prey to such nonsense. We weren't as compliant as the German people. There was too much of the independent rebellious pioneer spirit in the Am

 This country is in a fight for it's life. It has been for many years now. Each election cycle has pushed us closer and closer to the point of no return. I am not only talking about presidential elections but congressional, state elections, city elections, judicial elections and all the way down to school board elections. Constitutional conservative candidates have lost far too many of these elections or havn't even tried to run for office. Far too many states and cities have been lost to the Fascist Democrat party. On the national level we have somewhat slowed the process with the elections of Reagan and Trump over the years but we have lost much ground in the culture war that has undermined our nuclear family, religious values and common sense values. If we ever have another situation where there is a Democrat president, and a Democrat dominated congress we will lose our Bill of Rights. America will become a one party state and a totalitarian fascist state. They can do this b
