What will it take to silence Robert Mugabe, president and persecutor of Zimbabwe?

That's right it's yet one more sign of the end times! :-)

This is understandable. I have spent looong years in diligent of this book. In fact I like to think of myself as the worlds leading authority on it.

We have a "bump list" here
( see the link below )

of subjects and items "indexed" to various categories of interest. Over 300 of them.

Want to know more about Home Schooling, vouchers, environmental issues? We have them. Second Amendment? Right there. All you have to do is follow the links.

Virtually all articles are "sourced"-- there's a link back to the original, so you can judge for yourself the merits. You won't get that with the TV sound bites. The posters' opinions which follow are often more illuminating than the articles.

There is a wealth of information- some of it unique- on this site for those with eyes to see.
