No More Green And White

My high school colors were green and white. At graduation the boys wore green robes and the girls wore white. No one considered the girls inferior because of the color of their robes. Today, we live in different times. My alma mater, Walter Johnson High School in Montgomery County, Md., is one of several schools […]

Freedom of Expression Slipping Away

What do the Confederate flag, the words “Respect Choice” and the message “Choose Life” have in common? DMVs in many states are arbitrarily banning them from license plates. Texas officials nixed after an African-American pastor labeled it a symbol of oppression at a public hearing, even while nine other states allow it. New York officials […]

The Con of Certificate of Need Laws

If I got a dollar each time the federal or state government promised that new regulations of the health care market would reduce the cost of health care — and it subsequently failed to deliver on that promise — I would be a rich woman. The Affordable Care Act is the most recent example of […]

Hastert’s Fall From Grace? It Was A Fall From Decency

Did Denny Hastert really fall from grace with that indictment that brought him to federal court on Tuesday? As I waited for him to perform his perp-walk, that rite of shaming that white-collar criminals endure, and later when waiting for his barely audible whispers before the judge, I considered this so-called fall from grace. That’s […]

Denied under Nazis, 102-year-old woman gets doctorate

This is amazing. In 1938, Ingeborg Syllm-Rapoport was forced to stop going for her doctorate in Germany because she was part-Jewish. Now seventy-seven years later, she has become Germany’s oldest recipient of a doctorate at age 102. “After almost 80 years, it was possible to restore some extent of justice,” Burkhard Goeke, the medical director of […]

Hilarious Results of Liberal Campaign to Get Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly Off The Air: He’s Up 41% in the Ratings!

For the past several years the left has been engaged in a lie-filled campaign to boycott Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly Show and to force advertisers to drop their sponsorship of the talker’s show. So far, several years into the campaign, the results are in. Laughably, the left’s campaign seems to have meant little to O’Reilly’s […]

Infinitesimal Fraction of Population Is Actually Transsexual

To judge by the latest campaign by the establishment media, transsexualism is the most prominent feature of American life, and we have no more important task before us than the eradication of the last lingering resistance to its acceptance as healthy and deserving of celebration. But how many transsexuals do you actually know? Probably none, […]

Aspiring Police Officer Arrested On Rigid Gun Charges Gets Pardon From Gov. Chris Christie

Unfortunately, in many states that do not recognize the Second Amendment, gun crimes are not only equipped with severe penalties, but they also are prosecuted in a very black-and-white fashion with little room for mitigating circumstance. Thankfully, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie used his executive power to right a wrong. The possible 2016 Republican presidential […]

Obama Admin: You Can File A Complaint Against Your Boss If You’re Injured Buying Flowers

Recently, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration responded to a very specific workplace injury scenario. Their response may surprise you. “An employee returns to Atlanta on a morning from an out-of-town work trip,” read one workplace scenario submitted to OSHA. “The employee is not scheduled to work on Saturday. The employee leaves the Atlanta airport […]

Graduation Ceremony for Peaceful Muslim Palestinian Kids Features Gun Toting Tots Who Sing of Murdering Jews

Remember how the so-called Palestinians deserve to be considered a nation? Remember how they are innocent, peaceful, Muslims? Well, these innocent Muslims are teaching their kids to be peaceful Muslims… by having them march in military cammos, toting guns, and singing a song about how they will kill Jews. At a kindergarten graduation ceremony held […]

The United States Navy has been working on a new method to launch fighter jets off of aircraft carriers, not that the old method doesn’t work, but there’s […]
