Here we go again. The Arizona Legislature, in its infinite wisdom, has decided to pass a “religious freedom” bill making legal discrimination against doing business with anyone who doesn’t comply with a person’s religion. This was in response to a lawsuit filed in New Mexico over a wedding photographer who… Continue reading
A disappointing year for the book drive to benefit Phoenix Rescue Mission. The total came to $8.72, which will feed a few people. I guess I need to either become more famous or release more material before the 2014 drive next September. I’m working on both.
The Wild West As many know, I was a Republican for many years. I grew up in a family with classic conservative values. When I lived in California, I was among like-minded fiscal conservatives, so when I moved to Arizona, definitely a Red state with capital R, it felt refreshing… Continue reading

First of all, a big thanks to everyone who participated. Without you, nothing happens. I must confess I am a bit disappointed in how the second annual book sale went. This is where I donate proceeds from the purchase of my books to Phoenix Rescue Mission, a charity that feeds… Continue reading
13 years living in Arizona observing the state government, and now this presidential race, have convinced me that the main problem with American politics is there is no accountability for conflicts of interest.
