Duck Dynasty Dust-Up
Unless I really can’t avoid it, I do avoid discussing divisive “wedge” issues on the air, and I did not make an exception for the Duck Dynasty dust-up, but I do want to take this opportunity to express one heartfelt view I have. I feel strongly that the American people, gay or straight, black or … Read more
Trayvon Martin: Guns Not Race
After the Trayvon Martin shooting I did a show about my view that the reason the powers that be were making a stink about the Trayvon Martin killing wasn’t because they care about “hate crime” but because they want to increase gun control.
