Tales from the Mark Side: The misuse and abuse of freedoms in America

mark.young@manateeherald.com There are many things about the left that common sense Americans don’t understand, but perhaps the most frustrating is the left’s failure to understand the reality of how we are the Land of the Free because of the brave. The people who use their hard fought freedom of speech to say vile things about…

Tales from the Mark Side: Don’t f*ck with my NY pizza

mark.young@manateeherald.com Like my guns, dems can have my NY style pizza when they pry it from my cold, dead hands. New York politicians attacking NYC pizza makers marks the final straw. It’s time to unleash hell. It is, however, just the latest episode of, “What will these liberal morons do next?” Apparently some NYC idiot…

Tales from the Mark Side: United we stand, divided we fall matters for the GOP, too

mark.young@manateeherald.com It never fails to amaze me how we ever survive as a species – and perhaps our luck will run out one day as we’ve discussed many times over. Whether it’s the wrong virus released, a madman pushing the nuclear button or Conservatives continuing to allow liberals to be in charge because of Republican…

Tales from the Mark Side: Your children are not your own?

mark.young@manateeherald.com This December, I’ll hit over 30 years of matrimony. It’s taken four marriages to reach that milestone, but I still count it. Some say I’m a quitter because I’ve been divorced so many times but I counter that argument in saying that you aren’t a quitter if you keep trying. Truth be told, my…

Tales from the Mark Side: Keep Prosecuting Trump if You Dare

mark.young@manateeherald.com I’d really love to believe that most people understand the old saying, “Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.” But in today’s wacky and wild world within the Ununited Banana Republic of America, it’s pretty self evident that liberals can fool other liberals over and over and over again….

Tales from the Mark Side: GOP field growing with those who don’t know their limits

mark.young@manateeherald.com As the GOP primary field grows, it’s just proof that if a politician runs for office you are either a narcissist, one in the making or have the narcissistic tendency lying dormant, ready to be awakened. We see that in our local politics a lot where the candidate comes off as a genuine everyday…

Tales from the Mark Side: Gen Z could destroy America but Millennials can save it

mark.young@manateeherald.com Every generation tends to write off the newest generation as substandard to their own. Boomers certainly took up that stance when it came to us Gen Xers and labeled us the “Me Generation,” simply because we rebelled against the typical patriarchal traditions. Essentially, that was just a bunch of Boomer dads who were constantly…
