About FND Blog

  • I am a new author and just wrote my first paper blog (aka a book). I am posting here to collect my thoughts on all things Minnesota and the nation so I don't forget them. It'll all be cannon- fodder for my next novel in the series, Rise of the Ex-Nihilos.

About The Book

  • Foreign and Domestic: Campaign II--Battle for the Middle States by Michael Mannske is a page-turning war-thriller that explores the high price of freedom and the cost of fighting the U.S. president himself to secure it! In this sweeping epic, it is the near future, and the UN has now become a superpower, brutally fighting the United States on its own soil. Ex-Air Force pilot John “Spiderman” Trent’s life is in constant danger, his beloved wife is forced into an internment camp, and the fate of the world is in grave jeopardy. Can Trent’s secret force of military patriots save the day—and the Constitution?

Praise The Book

  • “…a futuristic free-fall. Mannske's high energy/high tech tornado is powerful. I couldn't put it down until I finished. Crawled into work the past two mornings cursing his name.” Jerry Lindberg
    Author, The Fingerprint of God
  • "Cross Tom Clancy with Dean Koontz. Mike knows his science and hardware. I see I'm going to have to go find and buy the rest of the series. I'm a "near-history" junkie and I love technological thrillers anyway. This is right down my alley."
    William Sloan
    Cmdr, American Legion Riders
  • “Thank you for Foreign and Domestic. Glad to see a fellow A-10 guy telling a great story. Check six…or just strafe ‘em!"
    Gen Gene Renuart
    Commander, NORAD

Ban the Vote to Anyone with a YouTube Login

Billem_the_snowmanThe sophomoric Democrat debate on Tuesday reminded me of the special license plates you can buy in Wisconsin that idiotically proclaim "Kids First". No, kids don't come first unless you want a house full of disrespecting little ingrates badmouthing you and feeling the world owes them a pain-free life.

I thought most politicians, after Borat, could tell when they were walking into a trap. Not the Dems. They seemed perfectly comfortable with this sort of contemptible youth. Not a once did I see them even so much as flex their hands into fists. I would have jumped through the monitors and flicked the brats' ears.

To prevent further damage to our republic, I propose instituting a mandatory draft for all YouTube users. Implementing this policy is the only way I see of reversing the American Idol-addled of this country and turning these brain-dead mockers into responsible civic-minded adults. Only then would I feel comfortable giving them back the vote.

UPDATE: Captain Ed has it right here and Hugh Hewitt here.
