Opinion: GOP has roadmap to more voters
It’s crazy political times like these that I long for how quickly, simply and peacefully the 1980 presidential election ended. That was the year President Jimmy Carter called my father at 5 in the...

It doesn’t matter who wins on Tuesday, America is in for big trouble. If it’s Joe Biden, the Democrat Party’s street gangs will celebrate by rioting in the streets. If Donald Trump wins...
Opinion: Trump tough, on target, presidential
Listen before you speak. My mother Jane Wyman taught me that sensible lesson a long, long time ago. And based on his fine performance at the second presidential debate on Thursday night, it looks...
Opinion: Look back at first woman on court
Watching the Senate confirmation hearing of Amy Coney Barrett reminded me of the promise my father made to my sister Maureen to put the first woman on the U.S. Supreme Court. It's a great piece of...
Opinion: Up to Trump to win the election
The Kamala Harris-Mike Pence death match will go down in history as another forgettable vice presidential debate, but it had its pluses. It showed us two important things we already knew. It showed...

Opinion: COVID-19 political weapon for Dems

Opinion: No way America full of racists
At least the media haven't politicized the weather reports - yet. Watching the next Category 4 hurricane hit Florida is about all I can stand to see on TV these days. The news and cable talk shows...

Opinion: A vacation might do you good
At this writing, I’m happy to report I haven’t heard Nancy Pelosi’s name in five days. I haven’t heard President Trump accused of being responsible for 159,000 COVID-19 deaths since last...
Opinion: Anarchists are scarier than virus
I have good reasons to be worried about catching the coronavirus. I fit the demographic profile for the most typical victim — I’m 75 and I have a serious medical precondition. And here in Los...
Opinion: Don't want to live in a 'woke' country
Build Back Better. Build Back Better. Build Back Better. Try saying Joe Biden’s clunky campaign slogan three times fast without gagging — or laughing. Biden is obviously cognitively impaired,...
Opinion: Schools should reopen for kids' sakes
Can we all agree the kids living in our biggest cities don’t get a good education? Can we all agree it’s a travesty that upwards of 75 percent of the kids in our inner-city schools aren’t able t...
Opinion: Protesters should study history
