A new novel out by Esther Hartstein details the life of a young woman who becomes conservative not because of a prosperous upbringing, which liberals think must be the case with all conservatives since they don’t understand them, but because of the hardships the young woman has endured. [...] The left-wing media have been working overtime to spin news coverage of the Hussein arrest. [...] Only in a society suffering from severe crisis can a mass killer like Saddam be lauded as a hero. It takes a cosmic shock, sometimes, to force a culture into self-critical mode. [...] Ray Bradbury is to our society what the shaman, chronicler, and sage were to their villages and clans. A review of Bradbury Stories. [...] The central civil rights issue is “our failure to provide first-class education to black and Hispanic students, in both cities and suburbs.” A review of No Excuses: Closing the Racial Gap in Learning, by Stephan and Abigail Thernstrom. [...] Affirmative Action Bake Sales satirically and peacefully spotlight the injustice of affirmative action programs that penalize or benefit students based solely on gender and race. [...] A black person who claims that black America’s biggest problem is not racism but its own immorality is a revolutionary in today’s politically correct climate. [...] A recent study by the Catalogue for Philanthropy shows that, despite the wailing and gnashing of teeth over how conservatives treat the poor, liberals are cheap. [...] 2003 was the year Americans rediscovered their courage, their faith in God, and the reasons we are the greatest living republic on the face of the Earth. [...] If Democratic presidential wannabe Howard Dean had his way, there would no longer be an independent media. [...] William Saletan and the Slate staff have put together a small but concise guide to all of the candidates from the two major parties. [...] The capture of Saddam aside, the President's decision-making last week was difficult to comprehend. [...] According to Peter Jennings’ documentary, “How to Get Fat Without Really Trying,” we need even more government oversight on those evil private companies that advertise and market “junk food” to consumers. [...] Howard Dean’s promise to use the FCC to protect democracy sounds less like democracy and more like social engineering. [...] Tim Robbins portrays our soldiers and marines as roving bands of thieves and looters who murder women and children for the fun of it. [...] Al Gore has settled upon “Central Air” as the name for his fledgling radio enterprise, as if to suggest that liberals are actually centrist in nature instead of radically socialistic. [...]
If reports by the National Intelligence Council and the Undersecretary of Defense can just be dismissed and replaced with dumbed down sound bites like "no WMDs have been found," why bother having Intelligence? [...] Some have labeled this novelist and poet a leftist because of his criticisms of the excesses of modern America, but he is really more of a traditionalist or Jeffersonian. [...] The White House press corps needs to get a grip on reality and start reporting on the issues that matter, instead of the ones they want you to hear. [...] The naissance of the Metrosexual is prima facie evidence that women are winning the war of the sexes. [...] Three Nevada Supreme Court Justices think Larry Hiibel’s right to privacy was violated when he was forced to give his name – to the police. [...] SCAM, by Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson, is a well-documented and devastating critique about the havoc wreaked on black America by so-called leaders. [...] Method, Money, and the Market Process is a beautiful introduction to the work of Ludwig von Mises. The twenty one essays deal with the topics of methodology, money, trade, economic systems, and ideology. [...] On the occasion of her 22nd birthday, it helps to remember Britney Spears is overrated and overpromoted…but at least writing about her has saved my career for three more days. [...] News isn’t news, nowadays, until it’s packaged like a neat little fairy tale. That’s the crowning achievement of the so-called Information Age. [...] |
