Chicago, IL—I will be chatting up a storm on WIND Radio 560 AM Chicago Sunday Night from 7:00 until 9:00 PM (Chicago Time). The show is carried live on the WIND website and we will take your calls from anywhere in the world!

Most young Americans don’t really understand the significance of the Fourth of July beyond fireworks and a holiday.  They don’t seem to understand or care that this was the day a brave and emerging nation said no to extortionate taxation, big government and tyranny. As long as this generation have their IPhones, IPads and filled Starbucks cup life is beautiful.  They are far more concerned with manufactured, no talent celebrities of today’s mindless reality television shows than the heroes that made their comforts possible. They more than willingly line up at every airport like frightened sheep for the government goons hired by TSA .  The IPhone generation, just don’t see the staggering loss of Liberty anymore than Germany’s population did in1933.  They certainly don’t understand what drove the brave American heroes of 1776 to stand up against tyranny instead of simply cooperating with their government. The Drug War and the War on Liberty have destr...

I don’t care where you live on this planet history is constantly being made.  You can either, observe and trust your memory or capture events forever on a quality camera. Trust me making videos pays! I’m a believer in using the raw power of capturing moments that will otherwise be lost forever, especially when there is no discernible cost involved.  When in doubt I shoot video with the best camera I have available. When it comes to video the rules are simple, hold the camera as still as possible, get as close as possible to your subject and let  every shot roll for at least 15 seconds.  Keep the camera rolling gathering more video not less!  Only use the zoom when you can’t come in for the close-up.  Tight zooming without a steady tripod increases camera shake dramatically and shaky video is trash. Always shoot the video horizontal and never vertical.  Your video needs to conform with our wide screen TV sets.   The other thing yo...

Washington, DC —Today there are millions of government employees and government contractors engaged in various roles serving taxpayers. Some of them have inside information that is about to change the course of American history. Today our government is more than ever, unaccountable and out-of-control. Many agencies operate like third world dictatorships where corruption of every kind is a way of life. Frustrated workers want to blow the whistle and turn to the news media. That happens all the time. Unfortunately too often the mainstream media won’t do their job because they are politically in bed with government wrongdoers. Such was the case when BATFE agents shocked by the Obama Administrations intentional delivery of thousands of firearms to Mexican drug cartels tried to expose the program. That deadly operation was called Fast and Furious , and Gun Walker . These whistle-blowing agents were ordered to hand over government stimulus tax money to known criminals who w...

David Grove, Fake War Hero Washington, DC —Most true heroes I’ve met are somewhat slow to talk about their exploits to strangers. Okay, I will make an exception for decorated politicians. There are cemeteries filled real heroes. There are lots real heroes that have never been recognized for their selfless acts.  We give medals, admiration and our thanks to those who risked life and limb to save others. Then there is the valor thief who brags about dangerous missions and exploits that never happened. These are total jerks that con their way through life. They do this to get employment, trust and attention from potential sex partners. There is usually some kind of ill-gotten gain involved.  Thankfully today there are military databases that list those who have won distinguished awards that can be used to expose some of the fraudsters.  I served my country as an Army Medical corpsman in Cold War Germany somehow escaping combat in Viet Nam . Frankly the...

Washington, DC —Despite claims of open government and transparency the Obama Administration put a bunch of unelected Left Wing lunatics in charge of reinventing healthcare and insurance.   They had a lot of things in mind bout none of them were about the rights of all Americans under our Constitution. The Obamacare project or that Socialist conspiracy was passed into law by a congress that had admittedly not even read the massive legislative package.   The bill was passed on pure partisanship and 'faith'.   That alone should invalidate the whole mess. Our Supreme Court will weigh in on this monster Thursday and it already looks as though it’s in for a well-deserved, massive rewrite.   Now back to the real healthcare crisis at hand.   I said we have a created crisis.   We must examine just what we did that deprived Americans of affordable insurance and healthcare.   The cost of healthcare has skyrocketed primarily durin...

Chicago, IL —In this city known for rampant corruption and cronyism the politicians know what to do with the money they extort from taxpayers!  Whenever possible taxes here are only used to support thieves, thugs and liars.  Chicago’s ghetto violence is way over the top this year.  Whenever the temperature rises so does the body count.  Chicago's cops are undermanned, outgunned, underpaid and demoralized.  Their pensions are on the fast track to be part of certain future bankruptcy proceedings.  Imagine just what the working cops think of Chicago's latest anti-violence plan?  The only way to deal with violence like this is hire, train cops and send the violent ghetto rats off to prison until they are too old to hurt anyone.   That works. However in the “ City That Works ” any anti-crime or violence program is acceptable only if wastes lots of money and as long as it doesn’t work.   The Mayor and his merry men are...

Washington, DC —Millions of America’s inhabitants are addicted to chemicals that have been outlawed.   The list of banned substances grows every day as ignorant politicians try to enjoin pathetic people seeking new ways to escape reality and experience intoxication.   The police state constantly increases its grip on innocent people that don’t use or want drugs.   Then there are all of us that must pay for the massive failure called the Drug War . The simple truth is that drug laws have not prevented those who crave illicit drugs from obtaining them.   The laws have not saved lives.   On the contrary the laws have resulted in thousands of killings related to drug trafficking.   Unfortunately many killed are not involved with drugs.   Thousands of lives have been shattered and destroyed by bad police work, botched drug raids and false imprisonment. The very worst of criminals and corrupt government officials are being obscenely enriched beca...

Chicago, IL —The Windy City’s Political Gadflies will be out in force once again.   They are hosting another so-called Gun Turn In for guns, bb guns and toys.   People once again will be enticed with immunity from arrest and gift cards to turn in virtually anything that even looks like a gun. These events bring people in from suburban areas, Indiana and Wisconsin who are able to sell Chicago some completely unserviceable and worthless firearms.   The truth is that area firearm dealers (remember Chicago has no firearm dealers) go out of their way to collect junk to bring in for substantial profits.   Chicago's gun-rights hating political and religious advocates will all sing and hold hands while they convince each other that they are somehow saving lives.   The problem here is there exists no data whatsoever, anywhere that can even provide a shred of empirical evidence that a single injury or death is prevented by these efforts. One thing fo...

Los Angeles, CA —In the City of Angeles they have the Hollywood Fringe Festival going on right now.   Live theater here is non-stop in this entertainment district.   Standing out is a show called, They Call Me Mr. Fry.   Jack  Fry is a real Los Angeles, inner-city, substitute, fifth grade school teacher.  This is about his first year in what would best be described as somewhat of a combat zone.  In fact the teachers get paid extra for the challenges there. What Jack Fry does in his production is relive the culture shock, fears, hopes, and dreams along with the lives involved in his teaching experience for the audience. Fry delivers a commanding performance as he takes you through school district’s bureaucratic political correctness gone bonkers.   Fry enters a world of gangs, violence, neglect, heartbreak and poverty to capture the attention of his students, long enough to teach them.   Fry’s show has a similar theme to that to...
