Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - March 22, 2024 20:00 - 26 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
Borrowing, when there is no reasonable chance to pay back the funds, is not even close to what most of us would consider sound economic advice.  Unfortunately, this is how the government has been operating for quite some time now.  And Social Security, among other taxpayer funded programs...is i...

Scam Artists

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - February 07, 2024 23:00 - 31 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
It takes some really despicable people to take advantage of vulnerable people in our society.  These scammers seem to have no conscience, they attempt to steal whatever they want.  And in many cases, unfortunately, they are successful.  I have little tolerance for such people!

Government Overreach

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - January 24, 2024 00:00 - 23 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
When we submit to the will of an out-of-control government, that takes advantage of our liberty and freedom, indeed actively attempts to minimize our liberty and freedom; then we have succumbed to the control of tyranny.  Our Constitution, and we the people, deserve so much more.

Unchecked Power

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - December 26, 2023 22:00 - 29 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
If we're not careful, not paying attention, or simply don't care, we'll find ourselves in a country that resembles totalitarianism, not freedom and liberty.  And then it will be too late to do anything about it.  We must preserve the Constitution if we expect our children and grandchildren to ha...

Stopping to think about what's really important is something we should all do on a regular basis.  We have to be willing to stand up for what we believe, and continue to respect the rights of all people to believe what they will.

Borders, Black Markets, Firearms

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - December 04, 2023 23:00 - 25 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
We live in a very open country, to be sure.  And for that reason, the "powers that be" need to ensure that they have the safety of the American people as a top priority.  Unless we want to end up like Israel, and experience a terror attack that dwarfs 9/11, our borders must be protected.

Control of Land Tends to Breed Hostility...Why?

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - November 04, 2023 21:00 - 23 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
Editing Note:  At around the 8:10 mark of the episode, I said that "Gaza takes over..."  What I meant to say is that "Hamas takes over."   There are regions of the world that have been hotbeds for war and strife for generations.  The Middle East is no exception to this unfortunate rule.  And if...

We Need to Find a Better Way

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - October 21, 2023 22:00 - 18 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
Doing the right thing, that which is kind and nice, doesn't get the attention it deserves in society today; however, just because niceness doesn't sell in the corporate media cesspool, doesn't mean we shouldn't embrace it.  It only takes a small effort on our part to change the narrative for the...

There is plenty that we can all observe in our society, that needs improving.  But what about the good that people do on a daily basis?  We need to take back the narrative!  Let's not allow ourselves to be dictated to, by those who seem to be succeeding in their quest to divide us, and pit us ag...

Emasculating Men

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - June 03, 2023 00:00 - 21 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
Contrary to "popular opinion" it's not cool to ridicule men for being masculine.  I make a legitimate attempt to justify masculine behavior in men - and for that matter, the fact that there is both feminine and masculine characteristics in both women and men - and that's okay!

Article 2

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - May 05, 2023 21:00 - 26 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
The Constitution is limited, some may even say that it's vague, with respect to the duties of the President.  And to be fair, it is vague regarding many aspects of the three coequal branches of government.  But as to whether the Constitution allows for the Executive to issue Orders, well, that i...

Equal Vs. Equality

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - March 27, 2023 22:00 - 17 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings

Life

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - February 18, 2023 22:00 - 22 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
Life is short.  I believe that we should strive to be a friend to all, even if we don't agree with them all of the time.  Of course, we're going to have friends that we will always keep close.  May each of us be the kind of friend that others would want to keep close.

We all seem to put up with what we will...until it comes knocking on our door.  It is then that we become very interested when it hits close to home.  Enjoying freedom and liberty requires actively educating ourselves about the importance of what it takes to preserve rights.  If we wait until if...

Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed - November 04, 2022 02:00 - 31 minutes ★★★★★ - 7 ratings
Unlike some Hollywood elites, and perhaps other people; I love America and choose to live nowhere else in the world.  Not even the Commander in Chief can chase me out of the country...try as he might!
