Ten Reasons not to Vote Democrat
Originally posted 5 November 2012. Slightly redacted. Things are far worse now. ……………………………….. The Dems are the left-wing party in the U. S. Almost all Dems nowadays are leftists. It's not 1960 any more and you geezers out there with your sentimental attachment to the 'Democrat' label need to wise up. 1. Leftists lack common…

Vote Third Party, Waste Your Vote
This is a re-post from 6 November 2012. Since then, I have found no reason to alter my position. Perhaps you can supply me with one. …………………….. Did you perchance vote for Gary Johnson for president? Then you wasted your vote on an unelectable candidate and helped Barack Obama's re-election. The truth of a view does…

Ten Reasons to Vote Republican
By Peter Kalis. This list, reproduced here verbatim, receives the plenary MavPhil endorsement. I will only add that the first item in the order of listing is also the first in the order of importance. 1. I believe a nation that doesn’t take its borders seriously doesn’t take itself seriously. 2. I believe in a…

Red World, Blue World, and the Orange Man
David Brooks, Confessions of a Republican Exile: In Red World, people tend to take a biblical view of the human person: We are gloriously endowed and made in the image of God—and we are deeply broken, sinful, and egotistical. [. . .] You belong to God; to your family; and to the town, nation, and…

Kamala
I voted already. The mail-in ballot arrived on the 10th; I mailed it on the 11th. And I voted right. Did you? I also put my money where my mouth is by making a campaign contribution. Did you? Question: when one votes early by mail is one endorsing mass mail-in voting? I know my answer.…

Policies Trump Personalities
I'm with Kevin Sorbo. You say character matters? I agree! Trump's beats Kamala's. "That moment when someone says, "I can't believe you would vote for Trump.” "I simply reply, “I'm not voting for Trump.” "I'm voting for the First Amendment and freedom of speech. "I'm voting for the Second Amendment and my right to defend…

The 2020 Theft Saved the Country
The argument of this article goes through even if the 2020 election was not stolen from Trump. Biden's reversal of Trump's good works has exposed the thoroughly depredatory nature of our political enemies and has galvanized Trump and his supporters. The Orange Man has learned a lot in the interim. First-rate ass-kickers have joined his…

Repost from Election Day, 2016: Catholics Must Support Trump
This is an unredacted repost from 8 November 2016. My opinion of Trump is higher now than it was then. But the piece is basically on the right track and I stand by it. I threw the dice for Trump and the sequel showed that I was right to do so. I was vindicated in…

Just over the Transom from Malcolm Pollack
Hi Bill, My neighbor didn't call me a Trumper to my face, but mentioned (back in April) to my wife that he had the impression that I was one. (I felt obliged to unpack the assertion in a post.) The Cape has a lot of Dems, but most of the working people out here…

J. D. Vance on Kamala the Chameleon
Under three minutes. Look, Dana, she's not running a political campaign. She's running a movie. She only speaks to voters behind a teleprompter. Everything is scripted. She doesn't have her policy positions out there. She hasn't answered why she wanted to ban fracking, but now she doesn't. She wanted to defund the police, but now…
