CAN or CANNOT

Posted on September 10, 2008 by D3 Support

People get confused about focus. People say, ‘I cannot focus.’ In that moment this may be literally true, but they CAN revert back to the activity of focusing. Let’s say you’re really committed to reading a book, and you like … Continue reading →

A Freedom Kind of President

Posted on September 8, 2008 by D3 Support

We don’t need a President (or Vice-President) who’s a certain race or gender. We don’t need a President who “understands” our daily concerns. We need a President who respects the original intention of the Constitution and Bill of Rights: To … Continue reading →

Volitional Deficit Disorder

Posted on September 7, 2008 by D3 Support

Q: Dr. Hurd, I’m told that I have Attention Deficit Disorder and I’m skeptical. It’s not that I don’t have problems paying attention; I do. I constantly lose interest in things. But even on medication I still have problems. Plus, … Continue reading →

America Is Not “Addicted” to Oil!

Posted on September 3, 2008 by D3 Support

I am so sick of hearing people refer to America’s “oil addiction.” An “addiction” refers to the abuse of a harmful and dangerous substance. There’s nothing harmful and dangerous about oil. It’s quite literally the lifeblood of civilization. Most of … Continue reading →

“Big” & “Small” Government

Posted on September 2, 2008 by D3 Support

I keep hearing Republican politicians–most notably the presidential and vice-presidential candidates–talking about the need to “keep government small.” Excuse me? Do they think government as we know it is small? It’s HUGE. It controls most of the health care field; … Continue reading →

Hurricane McCain

Posted on August 31, 2008 by D3 Support

Hurricanes and natural disasters are things to be survived and endured. They’re not political footballs. At least, they shouldn’t be–but now they are. This is the result of a society which has–in very large numbers–succumbed to the illusion that some … Continue reading →

Who’s That?

Posted on August 29, 2008 by D3 Support

John McCain’s choice for Vice President is less fascinating than the means by which he apparently chose her–and the reasons people applaud him for it. Like Obama, she wasn’t chosen because she was perceived as the best person to become … Continue reading →

Too Stupid to be President

Posted on August 29, 2008 by D3 Support

“An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.” –Winston Churchill Obama’s proposals to sit down with overt killers and terrorists and “make peace” with them bring to mind Churchill’s wise comment. Obama is not … Continue reading →

My Needs Trump Your Rights

Posted on August 27, 2008 by D3 Support

“A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.” (Thomas Jefferson) How true. How could Thomas Jefferson see this–all those years ago–while neither of our major … Continue reading →

The Last Emperor

Posted on August 26, 2008 by D3 Support

One of the last monarchs in the declining days of the Roman empire, as the invading Turks drew closer, said the following about his youthful, would-be monarch son: “My son deems himself a great and heroic prince; but alas! our … Continue reading →

Is Obama “Uppity”?

Posted on August 25, 2008 by D3 Support

Presidential candidates often lose because, in the end–and in clear hindsight–they don’t want it badly enough. Michael Dukakis wanted to be President–only not as badly as George H.W. Bush, who won. George H.W. Bush wanted to be reelected President–only not … Continue reading →
