One Gentleman’s Journey To The Fellow Traveller Side of a Line In The Sand

Mandeville, LA - I have met many men in my role of satellite radio pariah to the Republican establishment (and outright heretic to the Democrat coven) but few match the genius and literary gift that is Brad Birzer. From the first time I read his "American Cicero-The Life of Charles Carroll of Carrollton" I was hooked on Brad's writing. Over the last 3 years we have become friends and I have […]

Hello Straw, My Name’s CNN, & I’m Here To Grasp At You (The REAL History of USA/Anglo Saxon)

Mandeville, LA - The Parrot Press Corps has outdone itself this time, ambushing an unsuspecting Mitt Romney for uttering the words "Anglo-Saxon" in a positive manner. Romney pledged to ease the icy tension between Great Britain and the U.S. *(he might just want to jot down UK specs for DVD's & CD's) after Obama's famous slight (a gift of DVD's that won't play on EU DVD players). The Telegraph UK, […]

Speech Week: What Would the Young Founders Do With ObamaCare?

The title of tonight's talk is 'What Would The Young Founders Do With ObamaCare? ' It is a sign of our times that the terms 'Founding Fathers' have almost become synonymous with acts of virtue, prudence and the highest moral character and while that is mostly true, there were times when the men we call 'founding fathers ' tried the patience of their elders, acted immaturely and even did radical […]

Thomas Jefferson to John Cartwright – Demolishes Big Gubbmint Republican Nationalism

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - In today's transcript, Mike reads excerpts from Thomas Jefferson's letter to John Cartwright from 1824 and provides his own exceptional commentary on it.

Thomas Jefferson’s [r]epublican America is Much Like The One Mike Church Promotes

Thomas Jefferson letter to John Cartwright. To Major John Cartwright Monticello, June 5, 1824 Dear and Venerable Sir, I am much indebted for your kind letter of February the 29th, and for your valuable volume on the English constitution. I have read this with pleasure and much approbation, and think it has deduced the constitution of the English nation from its rightful root, the Anglo-Saxon. It is really wonderful, that […]

The Virginia Declaration of Rights by George Mason

(Audio) Mandeville, LA - I have often told the story that while writing the Declaration of Independence Thomas Jefferson was inspired by founder George Mason. There is no clearer example of this than Jefferson's heavy use of Mason's phrase from the VA Declaration concerning the pursuit of happiness. this should clear it up and hopefully help the reader fully understand that had Jefferson been as verbose as Mason, the "all […]

Jefferson to Madison: Just say no on post roads

Mandeville, LA - It often comes to my attention that most folks think it entirely proper that the Federal Government should design, confiscate the property, then build and maintain millions of miles of Interstate roads and bridges. Many time people use the argument that "well the Constitution does give Congress authority to build post roads." Actually the Constitution gives Congress the authority to"establish" post roads NOT build them. No one […]
