There are a lot of unanswered questions about 737 Max jets

Tulsa Beacon

In the Sunday, February 23 issue of the Tulsa World, well hidden on page A-8, was a small story that carried the headline: “Debris found in fuel tanks of 70% of inspected 737 Max jets.”  There was no credit given to any reporter and it carried a dateline of “Chicago (AP).”  The last paragraph stated,…

Secession would require a lot of approval from the government

Tulsa Beacon

It was with some satisfaction that a story appeared on January 24 that Gov. Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma had issued an executive order to deny state-paid travel of employees and officials to the State of California. This was in response to such a ban imposed by officials of the City of San Francisco (San Fransicko)…

Senate resolution is completely justified

Tulsa Beacon

This was the headline of a story in the Tulsa daily news(?)paper on November 11, 2019 (Veterans Day): “Lawmakers seek to condemn Congress.”  It was ‘buried’ on Page A-11, but sufficient to catch my attention.  The sub-heading read: “State legislators propose a resolution condemning the impeachment inquiry.”  Credit for the story was given to Barbara…

As commander in chief, Trump made the correct choice in Iran

Tulsa Beacon

To me it was a welcome news report, delivered in person by PRESDT-45, R-New York (now Florida) himself that he had, acting as Commander In Chief (which is an actual title for the President of the USA) ordered a military strike to take out the No. 2 man in the terrorist activities sponsored by the…

No to federal funds for colleges that don’t all allow free speech

Tulsa Beacon

In going through the stack of clippings from various newspapers, a clipping was discovered dating clear back to March 22, 2019. of the Tulsa World that bore the headline: “Trump orders colleges to back free speech.”  The date was at the time I was undergoing a series of four biopsies on my tongue to remove…

Trump is doing a great job in appointing conservative judges

Tulsa Beacon

A pleasant surprise appeared in the Tulsa World, daily newspaper, on December 21.  Somewhat buried on page A-6 was an AP story credited to Matthew Daly headlined, “Senate approves 13 judge nominees.” Well it’s about time some recognition in reporting be given to the Senate Judiciary Committee for actually doing the assigned duties, which are…

Common civility is lacking in Congress

Tulsa Beacon

It seems to me that there has become no limit to the ridiculous lengths that the leaders of the Democrat Party will go in their attempts to demean and, if possible, destroy their perceived enemies with an “R” behind their name in the voting registration records. And that extends down to those as low as…

They don’t make cars like they used to

Tulsa Beacon

The subject matter here was planned for the week of October 14 but “a strange thing happened on the way to the office.”  I received a diagnosis of “Squamish cell cancer in a lymph node on my neck” –  resulting in seven five-day weeks of radiation therapy concurrent with six weeks of one-day chemo therapy…

The Left seems in a complete panic

Tulsa Beacon

The wild and false claims and accusations rising from those of the Communist/Fascist/Socialist part of the Democrat Party (True Name) seem to be increasingly loud, ridiculous, nasty, and totally untrue.  This leads me, and others, to the conclusion that they are in a state of complete panic.  Of course, we should remember that the more…

Ignorant climate change claims are damaging the United States

Tulsa Beacon

It seems like the loud, false, and ignorant claims emanating from those deeply rooted in the Communist/Fascist/Socialist political philosophy have no real clue concerning the “climate change” causing the end of the world being – brought about by the efforts of mankind.  If the truth be known, it is probably the height of arrogance for…
