Washington Despises What Judge Roy Moore Stands For by Michael Peroutka   This week Republican voters in Alabama chose Judge Roy Moore as their nominee for the United States Senate.   You might say that Washington just can't stand what Judge Moore stands for.    Judge Moore prevailed by more than ten percentage points despite the fact that both the President and the Vice President visited Alabama to campaign against him.    But what made this election more remarkable was the

JONATHAN GRUBER: TRUTH TELLING AND GLUE by Michael Peroutka The recent revelations of statements by a professor from MIT named Jonathan Gruber, about how the Obama White House purposefully deceived the American people concerning the costs associated with Obamacare, are intriguing on a few levels. Mr. Gruber’s statements about the deceptive intent of the drafters of the Affordable Care Act, are, of course, outrageous and insulting on their face. But it is interesting to note t

MAKE BELIEVE CAN BE DANGEROUS AND DEADLY by Michael Peroutka In a recent interview, Dr. Ben Carson, said that he supported the right of individual states to sanction gay marriage.  But here’s the problem.  There is no such thing. Individual states have no such authority. You see, some things are real.  Some things are make believe.  Knowing the difference is critically, crucially important. If I told you that you could safely drive off a 100 foot cliff at 80 miles an hour bec

November 2017 Elections: What Should Republicans Do Now? by Michael Peroutka     With the recent victories by Democrats in the November 2017 elections, there is much talk about what republicans should learn from this and what they should do now.   One argument is that Republicans must more clearly "embrace Trump".  That is, they should align themselves with the President and demonstrate their allegiance to his policies and his persona.   Others say that it’s time for Republic

Hillary Clinton new book and DELUSIONAL America by Michael Peroutka In a September 20, 2017 piece in the “THE WEEK” Magazine regarding Hillary Clinton’s efforts to promote her book about why she lost the election, columnist and talk show host Edward Morrisey discussed Hillary’s continuing efforts to have the election invalidated and overturned. Among other things he said that her actions are “…delusional”. This got me to thinking about the implications and consequences of “de

JOHN ROBERTS IS A “CONSERVERAL”  by Michael Peroutka Many conservatives are deeply disappointed in the tortured logic of Chief Justice John Roberts in his Obamacare opinion. They feel betrayed.  They are angry. They expected their conservative hero to stand against the immoral, unconstitutional, lawless tyrant.  At the risk of making them even more angry, I believe that they got just what they asked for. Let me explain.  The problem lies in the false belief that someone who c

LIES ABOUT OBAMACARE:  ARE YOU REALLY SURPRISED?     by Michael Peroutka Before last week, you had probably never heard of Jonathan Gruber. Gruber is the MIT economist who was once considered to be the intellectual architect behind Obamacare.  Nancy Pelosi now says he had nothing to do with Obamacare.  But back in 2009 she was quoting him publically and endorsing his published opinions on the matter. In any event, you have now heard about him because a series of videos have s

IS AMERICA REALLY “OUTRAGED” INTO WAR? by Michael Peroutka We tend to think, or at least most of us tend to think, that when nations, including these united States, make public statements or take policy positions, these statements or positions are based on moral considerations. Actually, I have become convinced that this is NOT the case. A recent article by Josey Wales, on the website known as Liberty Balance2014.com , recently brought this home to me. Quoting government sour

IS CARROLL COUNTY COMMISSIONER ROBIN FRAZIER A REVOLUTIONARY? by Michael Peroutka Carroll County (Maryland) Commissioner Robin Frazier opened up last Thursday morning’s Board of Commissioners budget meeting with a prayer containing references to Jesus Christ.  This is, of course, a perfectly normal and appropriate and legal thing to do. When Commissioner Frazier offered the prayer she was telling the truth and following the law.  Now you’ve probably heard George Orwell’s famo

Constitutional Sheriffs Are Liberty’s Brightest Light by Michael Peroutka If you are a lover of liberty in America today, you probably have gotten used to hearing and seeing “bad news”. I’m sure that you would agree that we live in an age of lawlessness and corruption.  We have a central government that has become everything that our founders feared.  Indeed, Washington, DC has become a black hole of consolidated power that is bent on enslaving, impoverishing and destroying t

BOBBY FRANKLIN by Michael Peroutka We have just lost a true Christian Constitutional champion.  Just after noontime on July 26, 2011 I learned of the death of my great friend Representative Bobby Franklin of Marietta, GA. Although I have spent a great part of my life speaking and educating about what we call THE AMERICAN VIEW of law and liberty and civil government, as a member of the Georgia legislature, Bobby Franklin was a man who was “walking the walk” — putting into prac

CONSTITUTIONAL SHERIFF INTERPOSES ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE by Michael Peroutka   Amidst the swelling sea of federal tyranny in America, there are sparkling drops of hope for a peaceful return to liberty. One such shimmering ray of hope is the Constitutional Sheriffs and Police Officers Association.  This group of peace officers and supporters are dedicated to upholding the oath that they took before God to support and defend the Constitution.  Many Sheriffs are coming to recog
