What is Hate Comedy? Basically, it is the only form of comedy that one is subjected to these days - from the hate-mongering late night talk show hosts, to all the rabid liberal faux comedians touting themselves as stand-up comedians.

Judge Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed as the 114th associate justice to the Supreme Court on Saturday, October 6. It almost didn't happen. And if everything went the way Democrats planned, it wouldn't have.

Lately, a lot of emotion has been spent over Confederate monuments in the Tar Heel state.
 
Let's be honest. The toppling of the Confederate monuments, the demonization of the Confederate battle flag, the vilification of the names and memories of our treasured white Founding Fathers (and especially anyone of them who happened to own a slave), and the erasing of our history.

DC politicians make me sick. They are quite literally the most wretched of human beings. They (mostly Democrats, let's face it) refuse to act in the best interests of the country or of its citizens, but rather, act for pure political purposes only.

On the campus of UNC-Chapel Hill stood the noble statue of "Silent Sam," the Confederate soldier who stood vigilant watch over the campus. It stood on McCorkle place, the University's upper quad, facing Franklin Street.

Every day I get angrier and angrier at people who act out their aggressions which are based on lies, mistruths, and liberal indoctrination. I'm talking about the desecration and the toppling of the Silent Sam monument at Chapel Hill

Where was the Senate Foreign Relations Committee when Obama promised he "would have more flexibility after his re-election"? Oh, the double standard.
