Ladies, Can We Talk?, the book, the radio show, Facebook page and this website, is all about speaking up for America. It’s grounded in the firm conviction that love for America is needed to preserve America—and that love for America requires an understanding and an intentional valuing of the exceptional founding ideas of America, or the ‘building blocks’, as I often call them on my show.
We provide “LCWT Statements on…” because some want more than just talking points on the issues of the day; they want a little more analysis and reasoning behind the ‘informed patriotism’ of Ladies, Can We Talk? Our Statements advocate for perspectives and solutions to America’s challenges that keep liberty and other vital American building blocks intact.
America is a good and great country, filled with good and great people. We need to remind ourselves of this, and then get back to applying our common sense and our American ideals to solving today’s problems. Enjoy our many (and frequently updated) LCWT Statements on the issues and events making the news…

At two of my recent talks, audience members asked variations of the same question: Is the America we love already lost? They were deadly serious about the question, and genuinely despairing that the answer, they believe, is yes. They were also clearly among......
Controversy perpetually surrounds the theory of manmade global climate change. Believers in the theory describe it as the single biggest threat to the future of mankind, and those who question or reject the theory point to facts that disprove it or at least raise very compelling discrepancies between......
Seems like every election cycle candidates on both sides of the aisle talk about eliminating the IRS. Almost immediately voices of “reason” and “pragmatism” claim that this is impossible, too big a change to tackle, too risky in terms of reliable revenue flow to the government, or just......
We often talk and write about the building blocks of America: the ideas that have made America the beacon of freedom to the world—the destination for just about everyone who has tired of the tyranny and oppression that socialism and other ‘un-American’ systems impose on the people. ......
Dr. Ben Carson said on a recent news show that he “would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation.” He went on to explain that the tenets of Islam, including sharia law, cannot be squared with the Bill of Rights under the......

A suburban high school in Chicago is now under an order from the federal government to allow a boy to use the girls’ locker room and showers, without any privacy protection for the girls or around himself. America under the Obama administration has gone......
The mainstream media has delivered the narrative: Oppressive racism and bigotry permeate the main campus of the University of Missouri in Columbia; an heroic student initiates a hunger strike to right the wrongs (which include reports of a hateful swastika); the student body president......
As we write this on December 3, 2015, US Senator and GOP Presidential candidate Ted Cruz is the subject of a classic ‘two-fer’: (1) a transparently angry yet pointlessly shallow tantrum of a hit piece by New York Times’ columnist Frank Bruni; and (2) a......
In President Obama’s December 6th, 2015 Oval Office address, he told America that the San Bernardino Islamic killers “had gone down the dark path of radicalization, embracing a perverted interpretation of Islam that calls for war against America and the West.” This is false.......
The unexpected passing of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia on February 13, 2016 was tragic for his family and friends, the Court, and America. The GOP should not compound that tragedy by even holding hearings for any Supreme Court replacement nominated by President Obama. ......
Super Tuesday results point the path to saving America. It is very simple: Ted Cruz is the Presidential nominee in 2016; Marco Rubio is his running mate, and the goal is 16 years of optimistic, conservative, Constitution-upholding, common sense American leadership. Hillary Clinton would......
