I’m not a Marine, but I know the Marines. With 12-and-a-half years teaching the U.S. military under my belt, I can sincerely say, hand on heart, that the two-and-a-half years I spent at the “Crossroads of the Corps,” teaching at the Marine Corps University in Quantico, were the most...

Symbols matter. And I don’t mean in the churlish and asinine sense of the “symbology” one might find in a Dan Brown novel. I mean it in the sense of visual shorthand for deep cultural concepts and values. Whether it is the vision of the Iwo Jima Memorial in Washington, D.C., or the sight of...

We have lost the Democratic Party. And next, we could lose America. How? Very easily. Here’s how it will look. The Democrats will continue to funnel huge sums of money into local races targeting swing districts using front organizations like Planned Parenthood and MoveOn.org. The...

Freedom is not our norm. In the history of mankind, and even today, oppression and political corruption are the standard, with the people of more than 90 nations living without the freedom we take for granted in America. Thomas Hobbes was right. Unless we decide, together, to live in peace under a...
