In an earlier column, I looked at the role the abortion issue would play in the 2016 election — not very much, I concluded — and promised another column on other cultural issues. Here goes. On anyone’s list of cultural issues that have been debated over the last decade, same-sex marriage ranks just behind abortion. […]
Jayne and Jon Cornwill, an Australian couple, recently came to America with a bit of trouble. The trouble? Boys. They have three little boys, and three rambunctious boys were quite enough for the Cornwills, thank you. What the Cornwills wanted was a little girl. But all they got were boys. And this led to what […]
From The Last Tradition His proponents once called NY Governor Andrew Cuomo a new kind of Democrat. However, that’s all a bunch of empty talk because the knockoff son of former Gov. Mario Cuomo is nothing but an ideologue afraid to death of the enviro-Nazis in his state that don’t want fracking in NY. South […]
Halle-freaking-lujah! Finally, someone with a spine who is willing to call it like it is. I have always been a fan of Brad Thor… now more than ever. We don’t need another Republican moderate. What we need are Reagan’s bold colors and someone who knows what be a real conservative actually is. These RINOs pushed […]
Welcome to the theoretical logic of Cass Sunstein. This is one of his lamebrain ideas as well. Sunstein notes that personhood need not be conferred upon an animal in order to grant it various legal protections against abuse or cruelty, even including legal standing for suit. In other words, animals should have the same rights […]
A police officer in New Bedford, Massachusetts was shocked to find out that his second grade daughter was participating in a Ferguson protest with her class during school hours. And he’s speaking out about it, slamming the school for encouraging hatred of police in students. 7News Boston WHDH-TV George Borden, the father of a student […]
A new shirt is raising a lot of eyebrows, and causing some to question if it goes too far. Some are saying that a shirt designed by police officer Jason Barthel, as a response to the “I Can’t Breathe” shirts designed to show solidarity after the death of Eric Garner, might be too controversial — […]
Spoiled, entitled, bratty college students across the country have been gleefully exploiting the grand jury decisions in Ferguson and New York, trying to use them as a way of getting out of taking their final exams. And when one student tried to pull this on her professor, his response was priceless. After the news began […]
What a fantastic idea! It’s a wonderful way to show appreciation to our bravest, whether they are military, police officers, firefighters or first-responders. If I lived in one of the four states where these restaurants are, they’d be at the top of my list to go to and eat at. It should be the mission […]
A woman in Las Vegas, her ex-husband, and his current wife–all of whom live in the same trailer park home–have been arrested and convicted of a horrific series of child abuse crimes involving, eight children, incest, and even forced bestiality police say. This trio abused their own children along with children of extended family members. […]
We are told it is white males who do the oppressing in our society. Then we read stories like this: On Sunday night, a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity posted what became a controversial Christmas photo on Facebook. The photo showed the brothers — most of whom appear to be caucasian [sic] — […]
It’s the height of irony that a black Police Commissioner asks if protesters will march for a shot officer as well and then the NAACP jumps all over him for it. Shouldn’t the radicals’ so-called ‘justice’ apply to police officers as well? Or is their sense of fair play only drug out when it serves […]
When you watch reprobates like Dianne Feinstein and Hanoi John Kerry sanctimoniously denounce their country for being mean to put-upon terrorists, you might imagine that at least the phony “torture” report has pushed the anti-American envelope as far as it can go. Wrong. Since left-wing hatred of everything America has traditionally stood for is as […]
Dozens of suspected murderers, rapists and other criminals who had been arrested by the Detroit police have now been released with no charges filed because of a backlog of unsigned warrants at the Wayne County Prosecutor’s office. 21 murder suspects, 105 sexual predators, 126 child abusers, and 25 other crooks have just been let off […]
After the massive riots that destroyed much of Ferguson, Missouri’s business district, black gangs have been roaming throughout the area including down into nearby St. Louis and attacking white people. Yet, the media has utterly ignored the story. In one area, for instance, assaults have risen 24 percent since the Ferguson riots. Things are getting […]
In a world that seems upside down with the events of the day and filled with evil at times, a story like this gives me profound hope for all of us. It brings tears to my eyes and reminds me how truly good some people can be. Life is never easy and divorce rips your […]
ISIS is very adept at manipulating media for use on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook. Substituting this pickup truck in the photo would not have been difficult at all. I am sure it was meant to entice Westerners in Texas and blue collar workers to their cause. Fail. Having said that… Americans […]
Now, that’s some mighty fine eatin’ there folks. This guy’s letter is epic and a must read. He goes from chastising Brand for making his lunch go cold, to telling him he didn’t have an appointment, to stating that the execs might be a tad wary of talking to him because he was once fired […]
It’s apparently never too early to think of the 2016 presidential election (poll results here) (Fox News) Former Massachusetts Gov. and 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney leads the growing pack for the GOP presidential nomination, while former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton remains far ahead among Democrats. Romney dominates the field for the 2016 Republican […]
People believe in a lot of things, some of which are real, some of which aren’t. More people believe Satan causes real world problems, ghosts exist, and in UFOs than “climate change”. More Americans believe in angels than “climate change”. This makes Warmists very upset, because they have invested countless hours over the past 20+ […]
Jonathan Gruber should have been Time’s Person of the Year. The magazine gave it to the “Ebola Fighters” instead. Good for them; they’re doing God’s work. Still, Gruber would have been better. Time’s Person of the Year designation has lost a lot of its stature over recent years. Part of its decline can probably […]
Allow me to unite America’s left, right and center in just three words: No, Jeb, No. Former GOP Florida governor Jeb Bush made the obvious official this week when he announced on Facebook that he’s “actively exploring” a 2016 White House run. Of course, he’s running. That’s what inveterate politicians do. Well, I hate to […]
It’s the season for giving. That doesn’t mean it’s the season for government. Government creates loyalty in the minds of citizens by pretending to be Santa Claus, doling out gifts and favors. Politicians claim they help those unfortunates who aren’t helped by coldhearted capitalism. The truth is, government gets in the way of charity, making […]
Last week, the Obama administration announced new curbs on racial profiling by federal law enforcement. Before deciding whether this is good or bad policy, we might try to develop a description/definition of racial profiling or any other kind of profiling. A good definition of profiling in general is the use of an easily observed physical […]
Tear up the textbooks, a new pattern may be emerging among Latino voters. The conventional wisdom — that Hispanics habitually vote Democrat over the immigration issue — may be obsolete. Gallup found that support for President Obama’s amnesty order was primarily among the foreign born population — whether Latino or not. Hispanics born in the […]
If you want to know how your tax dollars will get spent next year, the answers are in Cromnibus — the 1,695-page bill that Congress hurriedly passed last weekend to fund the federal government through September 2015. Republicans won big with Cromnibus, along with farmers, political parties, incandescent bulb users, Blue Cross insurers, kids who […]
From The Last Tradition That’s how excited I am at a possible Jeb Bush candidacy. And I’m pretty sure the conservative base of the Republican Party is equally underwhelmed with the idea of another squish GOPer has the itch to give it a go. Yahoo reports Jeb Bush answered the biggest question looming over […]
Fresh off of a hostage crisis in Sydney and a horrific attack on a Pakistani school that left over 100 children dead, liberal magazine Vox is making sure we know who the real enemy is: us racist Islamophobes. Evidently, asking Muslims to condemn acts of Islamic terrorism is bigoted, or something. This expectation we place […]
