Silvio Canto, Jr. Sunday, May 18, 2025 10:30 PM "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - President Ronald Reagan
We remember May 19: Music files: Estela Raval was born May 19, 1935 in Argentina. She was the lead vocalist for Los Cinco Latinos, a great Spanish pop group from the 1950's and 1960's. She died on June 6, 2012. Cuban history: Jose Marti was killed on May 19, 1895. His death on the battlefield came after years of speeches, articles and contributions to the cause of Cuban independence from Spain. Rock history: We say happy birthday to Pete Townshend, who was born in London on this day in 1945. P.S. You can listen to my show. If you like our posts, please look for Donate[...]
As a young boy in Cuba, and later in the US, I remember hearing Quiereme Siempre on the radio. Estela Raval was born May 19, 1935 in Argentina. She died on June 6, 2012. She was the lead vocalist of Los Cinco Latinos, a wonderful group from the 1950s and 1960s. They recorded many Spanish versions of The Platters hits, such as Mi oracion and other of their own hits like Quiereme siempre. The Cinco Latinos had great harmonies plus Estelas very elegant look.

K T Cat 5/17/2025 7:36:15 AM This was simply mind blowing to watch. BREAKING: Audio from Bidens 2023 interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur has dropped.He forgets names, dates, and stumbles through every single answer. He was completely checked out. pic.twitter.com/3LdlKfQbem Benny Johnson (bennyjohnson) May 16, 2025 I had thought Biden was in bad shape, but in private, he was worse than my father was the month before he died.They all knew. Everyone in the administration and everyone in the DC press corps knew. Anyone who served in the administration might as well pack it up and go home to find another career outside of politics. There is no answer, no mea culpa, no finger-pointing that can absolve any of them from perpetrating the Biden[...]
K T Cat 5/16/2025 4:37:29 AM ... or rather, the moral calculus of encountering hunter-gatherers.Late Add: It just dawned on me after originally posting this that the underlying question I've been wrestling with for some time is: How did we get to the point where Nazi logic makes sense? Having read most of Mein Kampf and consumed a decent amount of Nazi propaganda, modern parallels with the Nazis' distortion and selective application of history simply scream at me whenever I encounter the rantings of the dominant culture with its emphasis on white guilt.How did we get here? That's a question for future posts, but I just wanted to plant that in your head while you go through this.After noodling the Afrikaner question and pondering how the black[...]
B-Daddy 4/6/2025 5:10:10 PM Someone close to me asked me to give an overall take on the current state of politics and the prospects for our future. I thought to answer, but first want to explain how I analyze the political landscape.Here are some key principles that are worth repeating because we seem to forget them.1. A chicken is an eggs way of making another egg. To influence the the size and numbers of your chickens, manage egg production and consumption. Demographics are destiny.2. Eggs are rare, sperm is plentiful. Combined with 1 above, the most important variable component of demographic destiny is female reproductive behavior and strategies.3. Testosterone confers greater strength and aggression[...]
B-Daddy 1/26/2022 8:32:44 PM Well not really; and not just because Burnham isn't a household name. James Burnham authored key insights on "managerialism" and predicted its eventual triumph over capitalism in his 1941 book "The Managerial Revolution," summarized here, but skip ahead 5 minutes (this is a great podcast). George Orwell provided this summary in 1943.Capitalism is disappearing, but Socialism is not replacing it. What is now arising is a new kind of planned, centralized society which will be neither capitalist nor, in any accepted sense of the word, democratic. The rulers of this new society will be the people who effectively control the means of production: that is, business executives, technicians, bureaucrats and soldiers,[...]
W.C. Varones 3/31/2025 5:50:52 AM I meet a lot of very cool 30-ish people who dont seem to be on the path to having kids. Huge mistake. Kids are awesome.Its the circle of life. Its meant to be. Whether you believe in God or not, nature wants you to have kids.All your ancestors had children. Youre going to end a family tradition of millions of years because its inconvenient for your current lifestyle?
Doo Doo Econ Tuesday, January 19, 2016 6:08 PM Doo Doo Economics are the policies of overspending, printing money, neglecting the key economics issues, bad science and promoting entitlement programs which all add up to higher taxes during a recession and economic unsustainablility.
Once again Americans are facing questions about the definition of a Natural Born Citizen (NBC).This is the simple and indisputable definition: Two citizens who have a child, naturally create a new citizen. This is a Natural Born Citizen.There is absolutely no expert either legal or historical who will argue to the contrary. They may argue to include additional citizens, but this is the core of the definition.Two people who have a child in a location, have a citizen who is native to that land. This is a Native Born Citizen. Thus, terms like "Native American" which imply a location and not an allegiance to a country.A person can be both Natural Born and Native Born, or in the United States we also have Naturalized[...]
Do you remember the headlines when Obama apparently declared America a Muslim country on French television? Taken from an Islamic perspective this statement is dangerous. It sounds as if the President of the United States sees America is a Muslim nation. When you consider translations, this may presented to the masses as exactly that, American President Hussein (an exclusively Islamic name) Obama declares America to be Islamic. Thus America would be "al-Islam", or territory which may never be ceded to non-Muslims.Semantics, right? Over-reaction, right?Except, this is a long standing meme from not only the President, but also his staffers. [...]
Dean 11/11/2015 9:22:09 AM Over the weekend, Salon writer, DAVID MASCIOTRA, caused quite a dust-up on social media with his own salute to the troops ahead of Veterans Day . Here is the headline, followed by the sub-headline and then followed by the first paragraph of the piece:You dont protect my freedom: Our childish insistence on calling soldiers heroes deadens real democracyIt's been 70 years since we fought a war about freedom. Forced troop worship and compulsory patriotism must endPut a man in uniform, preferably a white man, give him a gun, and Americans will worship him. It is a particularly childish trait, of a childlike culture, that insists on anointing all active military members and police officers as heroes.If you desire, you can read it[...]
Theres no denying that over the last few decades most all on-field rules changes made by the NFL have been exercises in increasing offense and scoring. This has created an arms race in a sense where the pendulum swings back and forth between the NFL offenses and NFL defenses whereby the offenses get aided by rules changes and the defenses counter with a combination of innovative schemes and superior athletes. To wit, for years, its been conventional wisdom that the best athletes in the world were in the NBA. Now days, we would add NFL defensive backs and possibly outside linebackers/rush ends into that mix (you dont think dudes like Richard Sherman, Darrelle Revis and J.J. Watt can ball a little?).But[...]
