LOL! A wise man once said, “a twinkle of mirth is needed on earth!”

I have met Phyllis on many occasions, and spoken at a half dozen Eagle Forum events. At first I was surprised at her endorsement of Trump, but then, as I thought about it, not at all.

This is superb reporting by Boyle. Fair to both sides with the full interview text often reprinted. Everyone should read this.

Great bio of her by Don Critchlow.

LS, your “Patriot’s” history book, and one of Matt Brackens’ books, are the only ones I perennially keep in my truck so if I ever run into one of you I can get them autographed.

It’s not stalking, really!

She lives in my husband’s home town. I always wondered if I’d spot her in the grocery store when we visited his folks.

***they both should unite for the good of the nation. Once again we will do the left's work for them and destroy ourselves***

It seems to be emerging - IMHO - some sinsiter power is fracturing the conservative movement beyond repair, in order, I presume, to elect a Democrap, open our borders, destroy our sovereignty, dilute our currency, trample the constitution, demoralize our citizenry......

In 2000 I had enough facts in my own 'puter files to at least earn an indictment against Terry McAuliffe; now he is in major consideration for the position of VP for another seasoned gangster: Hildebeest Clintooon. sigh

It is heartbreaking to think that the tipping point of there being more takers than makers in our society is at hand.

John Adams in a speech to the military in 1798 warned his fellow countrymen stating, “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . . . Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams is a signer of the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights and our second President.

I presume that would be Alton, Illinois (my home state) where Phyllis lived after getting married. A lovely town.

I'm proud that I worked alongside Phyllis in the defeat-ERA movement. Folks should be aware that she was, among other things, an advocate of separate bathrooms for males and females.....one of the conservative concepts that would have been destroyed by the passage of the ERA.

Wow!!! This was in the early seventies when no one (except the plotting ERA liberals) was even thinking about this!!!

She knew how leftists minds work, and was always way ahead of them in her time.

I was a college freshman then, and I came to really admire her. Still do, and even more so !

I heard her recently on the radio. She was hilarious. Talked about how she kept her husband happy by allowing him to make all the really big decisions in their marriage. For instance, he decided that they would have baked potatoes but never fried potatoes.
