A Tribute: BAUMGARTNER By James E. Horn, September 7, 2015 I really don’t (always) believe in spirits, or do I? I’ve always considered myself to be a fairly pragmatic, straight forward type of guy, not very spooky, and stable. I do believe in GOD. Given that, I suppose that acknowledging certain spirits is OK. In fact, I believe that a spirit visited me recently. I was doing something, when suddenly; a profoundly vivid recollection of a man I had not thought of for over forty years came to my mind.

I thought that was a wonderful thing – a way to avoid coat hangers. The Pope and the Catholic Church forbade […]

Earlier this week, I watched Obama proudly proclaim the nuclear ‘accord’ that he and his sycophant, John Chamberlain Kerry, had reached with Iran. Obama stated in part, “…because of this deal, the international community will be able to verify that the Islamic Republic of Iran will not be able to develop a nuclear weapon.” Obama lied! His message was a classic example of Moslem double speak. His message to the world of Islam was clear: Iran has won the unfettered right to pursue its development of a nuclear arsenal without American interference. Obama is carrying out the will of Mohammed’s […]
