 President Woodrow Wilson declared November 11, 1919 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day. World War One ended the year before on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. This was the end of the “the war to end all wars.” On May 13, 1938 Congress made the 11th of November in each year a legal holiday—a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated and known as “Armistice Day.” Armistice Day was primarily a day set aside to honor Veterans of World War I. In 1954 because America had just fought World War II and the Korean War Congress changed Armistice Day to Veterans Day. This made sense since there were 16 million men and women who served in World War II alone. On October 8th 1954 President Eisenhower made the first Veterans Day proclamation. In 1968 Congress decided to give everyone a long three day weekend by celebrating Veterans Day on Monday every year. The first Veterans Day celebrated under this law was in 1971 and it g

It appears that America has been given a reprieve. God is not through with America yet. President Trump won 312 electoral votes, the popular vote, and the Republicans are on track to win both houses of Congress. As the president wanted we got election results "too big to rig". The RNC ran a fantastic ground game that deterred cheating and got out the vote. Replacing Mitt Romney's daughter Ronna McDaniel as head of the RNC with Michael Whatley and making Laura Trump co-chair was absolute brilliance on Trump's part. People like Charlie Kirk rallied the youth vote in the battleground states. Scott Presler and Elon Musk worked wonders in Pennsylvania even motivating the Amish to vote. This election is historical. In my 74 years on this earth I have not seen anything like it. Donald Trump has pulled off the greatest political comeback in American history. In addition he is now the second president to win two non consecutive terms in office. Grover Cleveland was the first t

A NIGHTMARE SCENARIO

 America is like a condemned person on death row right now who has just a few hours left to live. We are waiting on a reprieve from the governor that could save our life. It won't be a full pardon but it would delay our inevitable death for a time. This reprieve could give our lawyers enough time to put together a solid defense that could lead to our total exoneration. Many people would tell me that I am painting an unrealistic picture of the future of our country or I am engaging in hyperbole. This is how I see the election this Tuesday November 5th. If President Trump wins it will just be a reprieve. The same holds true if we win both the White House and Congress. If Trump and his dream team are actually able to bring about true government reform by reducing the size of government and removing the leadership of the administrative state installed by Obama and Biden we might be moving toward a full pardon. Even then it will be a long shot. As we have seen already Trump's accomp

GROWING UP WITH RADIO IN NASHVILLE

  When I was growing up in Nashville we only had AM radio stations. The most popular stations were WSM, WLAC, WENO, WSIX, WKDA and WMAK. WSM was the home of the Grand Ole Opry. It was a 50,000 watt powerhouse and at night and it could be heard all over North America and nearby countries. WSM was also nicknamed the "The Air Castle of the South" This was a huge factor in spreading the popularity of country music. Especially with the military during WW2. I didn't become a fan of country music until about the age of 17. After getting off work I would listen to a late night talk show hosted by Ralph Emory. He would interview country music stars and play the latest country hits. I would lay on the front seat of my car and listen to the show late into the night. WENO was in Madison, a suburb of Nashville. It was our only other Country music station besides WSM and WSIX.. WLAC was also a 50,000 watt powerhouse which could be heard over vast areas at night. There were three white

LET US ALL BE UNBURDENED BY WHAT IS NOW

 Jeffrey Goldberg, who is the editor of the Atlantic magazine wrote a hit piece on president Trump accusing him of saying that he wished all of his generals were as good as Hitler's generals. Of course he uses anonymous sources and Goldberg is a proven liar. He is the same one that claimed Trump called the fallen Marines at Belleau Wood cemetery in France "suckers". This was soundly debunked by numerous people that were there. They said that he never said that. Many have come forward saying that Trump never said anything about wanting Hitler's generals or admiring Hitler. For the sake of argument let's say that Trump did say that. Hitler had some pretty good generals. Erwin Rommel and Heinz Guderian come to mind. If they had not been under the command of Hitler, who was a terrible military strategist, there is no telling how much damage that they could have caused us. What president wouldn't want generals like them or a George Patton, Stonewall Jackson, a Nath

THE ABORTED ALSO HAVE A FACE

Walking Courtney down the aisle Democrat Luis Mata is running against Republican Mike Sparks for a seat in the Tennessee House of Representatives. Mata seems to be a one issue candidate. He runs the same add over and over pushing for the so-called reproductive rights of women. Which is a politically correct way to avoid saying the word abortion. Mata is pro abortion. Who benefits from so-called reproductive freedom? The unborn baby that is being ripped apart in the womb? The only thing that is being reproduced is death. I see no difference in people like Mata using terms like reproductive freedom than Hitler calling the Holocaust the Final Solution of the Jewish Question. He couldn’t call it what it really was. The extermination of the Jewish race. Nor can the sociopaths pushing the abortion fetish call the mass murder of the unborn by it’s proper name. Hitler murdered ten million people. The majority were Jews but he also murdered the mentally challenged, physically handicapped, Gypsi

A REAL MAN

 I love this picture of August Landmesser who is standing in a crowd of Germans with his arms folded. In a gesture of defiance he is refusing to salute Adolph Hitler, who is addressing ship yard workers where August was employed on June 13, 1936. August's rebellious attitude was based on his love for his wife who was being mistreated by the NAZI state. He could have been imprisoned or killed for this simple act of defiance. August joined the Nazi Party in 1930 which was during the depths of the depression and he thought that joining the party would put him on the fast track to getting a job. August met Irma Eckler in 1934 and fell deeply in love with her. This was a problem since Irma was a Jew. It mattered not that she had been baptized into the protestant church as a child. In 1935 they would become engaged and this would get August expelled from the party. Under the Nuremburg laws their marriage application was denied. Their daughter Ingrid was born in October 1935. In 1937 the
