Alison Weir Has A New Publication


Anyone else a medieval history freak fan like I am? Nothing gets me more excited than a new book on this subject, especially the Tudor dynasty (think Henry VIII, Bloody Mary, Elizabeth I, etc.) I have multiple books covering these Monarchs and more. One of my favorite authors, after David Starkey, is Alison Weir. Imagine my joy when I learned that Ms. Weir has a new book that is set to be published January 12th. Of all the people I've studied from that era, I know very little about Lady Margaret Douglas.

I've restocked the tea stash, hubby will cook scrumptious scones sprinkled with sugar, and my favorite reading chair is all set to go. After the 12th I'll be the one in the corner reading quietly about life 500 plus years ago. History is a marvelous teacher if we'll all just listen and learn from our ancestors mistakes. Which reminds me of the saying:

"Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it." -- George Santayana

And I pray (literally) that our Nation will learn from our current horrendous mistake making 2017 the start of our own Renaissance. Wouldn't that be splendid?! One can hope.

Have a blessed day folks.

The Men Who Destroyed the Constitution


The Constitution In Exile

One of my absolute favorite people on Fox News is Judge Andrew P. Napolitano. I love it when it takes a point of law and breaks it down for us non-lawyer people. He's good and very constituionally sound.

I didn't realize he was such a Libertarian. Just like us! I personally think Judge Napolitano should run for President.

After reading the article reviewing his new book "The Constitution In Exile, I've ordered a copy from Amazon.Com.

For some time now, I've been stating aloud that all this mess with our country started about 1850, and was exacerbated by 'Dishonest' Abe Lincoln and his War of Northern Aggression. He took the Constitution and used it for toilet paper by leading us into that unnecessary war.


By the way, we're up to **32 Czars** in the Administration under his 'highness' the illegal Obama. EVERYTHING this man has done is unconstitutional!! [sigh] Now Obama is refusing to call them Czars.

Well, Mr. Obama, a Skunk by any other name still smells the same.
