The average college sex columnist is so mind-bogglingly stupid, even The Onion parodied one. They were also the subject of my Townhall column today. But rumor has it that my old college paper, The Post, wants to hire one anyway. Why do I complain? First, these columns are overwhelmingly written by raunchy exhibitionist hags who […]

I’m trying to figure out the point of this article, headlined “Man carrying assault weapon attends Obama protest.” (By the way, “assault weapon” is an utterly meaningless term invented by anti-gun propagandists, used to make plain old rifles sound scarier.) The story is actually about several people who displayed guns on holsters at protests, which […]

It’s been great fun watching the Democrats’ Marie Antoinettes host town hall meetings on health care. First, Arlen Specter claimed that meeting with his constituents isn’t his job, snapping at a hostile crowd in Pennsylvania, “I don’t have any requirement to be here.” Really? Really? Meeting with the people you supposedly represent isn’t a job […]

If this picture doesn’t make you hurl, there’s something wrong with you. No, seriously. Read the accompanying article, which–of course–portrays these sick pedophiliac freaks as victims of Israeli oppression. The Hamas government also paid the men to take these baby girls as sex slaves. Yes, the appropriate term is “sex slave” and not “wife.” Islamic […]

About two years ago, when I was a junior in college, I e-mailed Dr. Miriam Grossman to thank her for writing the book Unprotected. As a college student, the book made sense of what I was seeing around me but couldn’t understand. I wrote this column , kept in touch with Dr. G, and in […]

Debra Saunders–who is quickly becoming my favorite co-columnist at Townhall–had a really interesting piece yesterday about left-wing group The Sentencing Project. Their plan for dealing with vicious rapists and murderers? Give them “alternatives” to prison. Really? Do they think that would be an appropriate sentence for people like John Couey, a convicted sex offender who […]

Or at least stop throwing around terms you don’t understand, such as “fascist.” In response to my column on Townhall today, I received this charming e-mail: Wow! The fascists of the Republican party really did a good job of brainwashing you. You WILL grow up! Anyone who actually reads should know that fascism is a […]

Yeah, I’m sure you assume the title of this post is hyperbolic. But before you jump to conclusions, read this article from the latest issue of Time: “Summer School: What? No More Vacations?” If Obama’s new Education Secretary has his way, your kids will be in government schools eight hours a day, twelve months a […]

A few weeks ago, John wrote about what we can learn about socialized medicine from Massachusetts. Well, I think there’s one lesson he overlooked: the government health care fetishists can never be open and honest about their agenda. Recently, House Dems blocked Republicans from communicating with their constituents about health care “reform”: Democrats are preventing […]

Atlas Shrugs reports that three Muslim men have been arrested for drowning their female relatives: Zainab Shafi, 19, and her two sisters, 17-year-old Sahar and 13-year-old Geeti, were found inside a black Nissan Sentra submerged in water, near a Rideau Canal lock northeast of Kingston. Another 50-year-old family member, Rona Amir Mohammed, was also inside […]
