 A Novel "Uncanny. Like viewing the world through smoked glass." -- Chilton Williamson Jr., author of Mexico Way      |
L Wilson Hunt, of Chanticleer Book Reviews, recently wrote a flattering and insightful piece on my novel More and More unto the Perfect Day. That review reads, in part: Bizarre things are beginning to happen to Joel Gasteneau. A strange illness has left him feeling weak and haunted by vivid dreams, and he feels that [...]
Syncretism is a term that means the combining or reconciling of opposing practices and principles. It’s most commonly used in a religious or philosophical context, and as with Easter, Christmas too is syncretic in its origins: a pagan celebration whose provenance long predates Christ’s birth but which eventually made its way into the Christian mainstream. [...]
In so doing, Barack Obama also discloses for us again his arrant economic-political illiteracy. Straight from the horse’s mouth — and it doesn’t get any plainer than this: One would be wise to note here that there’s never in world history been a system of total unregulated laissez-faire capitalism, but the societies that have come [...]
It looks as though even some of the Occupy Wall Street people can’t resist the warm allure of heading home for the holidays — despite the fact that these folks are against the true spirit of Thanksgiving: Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
It’s being called by some The Worst Media Double Standard in Recent History, and I couldn’t agree more. I’m referring of course to the mainstream media’s overwhelming support of the Occupy Wall Street movement vis-à-vis their utter vilification of the Tea Party, who paid for the permits (I know, because I was one who paid), [...]
The Goths, as recounted by a Gothic historian named Jordanes (mid 6th Century AD), were a Teutonic-Germanic people whose original homeland was, according to Jordanes, in southern Sweden. At that time, this half-barbaric band was ruled by a king called Berig. It was King Berig who led his people south to the shores of the [...]
Here’s Michael Moore in an interview from 2002: “I’m a millionaire, I’m a multi-millionaire. I’m filthy rich. You know why I’m a multi-millionaire? ‘Cause multi-millions like what I do. That’s pretty good, isn’t it? There’s millions that believe in what I do. Pretty cool, huh?” “That was the same year as ‘Bowling for Columbine’ and [...]
Jason Mattera, author of the excellent book Obama Zombies — which captures very well the mindset of the brainwashed masses who went in for Barack Obama without any real regard for the actual content of his political philosophy — is refreshingly fearless in confronting politicians and calling them out. Politically, I do not always agree [...]
Regarding the Wall Street protests, Robert Robb, a columnist for the Arizona Republic, has a recent and fairly interesting article. Here’s an excerpt: The protesters are massively wrong about the incompatibility of capitalism and social justice. Social justice shouldn’t be measured on what the rich have, which is the fixation of the protesters. Instead, the [...]
The so-called Wall Street Protesters have posted a list of grievances, ostensibly to codify all the things they’re against, and if, heaven help you, you take the time to actually read that list — grammatical errors and all — I predict you’ll no longer be in any doubt that these people are truly Anarchists For [...]
It may or may not surprise you to learn that the anti-corporate Adbuster quacks, who are protesting on Wall Street, the Brooklyn Bridge, and now in cities across the United States, have garnered some support from the anti-corporate libertarians. The following video clip will give you an idea of the caliber of economic understanding these [...]
In a recent interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan, socialist documentarian Michael Moore — who, not coincidentally, made a socialist propaganda movie called Capitalism: A Love Story — revealed Monday (September 27th, 2011) what we all already knew: he has no understanding whatsoever of what capitalism really is. The video clip won’t embed, but you can [...]
