Prepare For a Great Blessing

By Charlie Johnston Long ago I saw that, at a decisive moment, our technology would fail. I’m no Luddite. I do not regard technology as either intrinsically evil or intrinsically good. It is just a tool which, like any other tool, can be wielded by its user for either good or evil. But we withhold […]

The Challenge Before Us

By Charlie Johnston Sheesh – the very day I write a piece saying that I am going to wait on making any significant judgment on where Pope Leo will fall, he ostentatiously blesses a huge block of ice in a suspiciously pagan-looking “climate change” event. Then he explains that anyone who supports the death penalty […]

Go Forth!

By Charlie Johnston In 2006 I was involved in two Congressional campaigns, running one and consulting on another. I spent more than a little time at the Capitol Hill Club – the Republican legislators’ informal clubhouse in Washington, D.C. The campaign I was consulting on was a competitive district that leaned Republican. The one I […]

By the Dawn’s Early Light

By Charlie Johnston It was late in the War of 1812, September 13, 1814, to be exact, just over three months before the war was formally ended.

Happy Inauguration Day!

By Charlie Johnston Niceville, Florida – I saw several wits on X and Facebook note that, for the first time in their lives, they were wishing they could skip the weekend and just get right to today. One has to hope that Joe Biden didn’t start World War III, bring in another 10 million illegal […]

Happy Thanksgiving!

From Charlie Johnston Helena, Alabama – I pretty much say all I have to say in this Thanksgiving video for CORAC. Thank you all for the fabulous work you have done these last four years to keep the home fires of faith, family, and freedom burning. In 2008, at the Easter Vigil at Immaculate Heart of […]

Steady on…

By Charlie Johnston Tyler, Texas – Well, I killed another computer going into the end of the week. When you are constantly pounding away writing, a laptop PC has a shelf life of about three to three and a half years before some of the keys stop working. This time it was primarily the P […]

Marching Towards the Triumph

By Charlie Johnston “The jar of flour shall not go empty,nor the jug of oil run dry,until the day when the LORD sends rain upon the earth.” -1 Kings 17:14 Houston, Texas – Even in my heyday I never used polls as a primary indicator in campaigns. In fact, in my first statewide primary race […]

We’re On Our Own

By Charlie Johnston Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – I’m going to try to do briefer pieces every day or two until at least election. Things have gotten so crazy that to try to do any sort of comprehensive stuff is truly like trying to drink from the proverbial fire hose. But we can do some postcards on […]
