Looking at the dire prognostications of currency analysts on TV or in the newspapers lately would lead one to believe that all of your assets are evaporating like raindrops on a Phoenix sidewalk in August. [...] In the 60's I was drawn to the women’s movement and popular feminists because they promised to give women “a voice” in the culture and in politics. Yet, when women I meet today try to voice their victimization under America’s abortion-on-demand policies, they are ridiculed or dismissed. [...] How much of the Republicans' success in the last ten years can be attributed to the dissemination of — for a change — accurate information over the Internet through conservative news websites, blogs, and e-zines? [...] It is imperative that pro-life Republicans write to their Congress members and remind them what Americans really voted for. [...] Thomas Frank's book What's the Matter With Kansas helps show that liberals are the self-righteous, led by the self-important, for the benefit of the self-interested. [...] Perhaps nowhere does the strident criticism of the drug industry come together in a "perfect storm" as it does in Dr. Marcia Angell's new book, The Truth About the Drug Companies. [...] Those who have been in the military, especially during war, and their families, truly know how important encouraging our troops is. When they speak we should listen. [...] Among those who made the 2004 election memorable were Dennis Kucinich, Dan Rather, Gavin Newsome, and Bob Kerrey. [...] The Norma Khouri saga is an indictment of how society has so fallen in love with victimhood that it took 18 months and an international effort to debunk a claim that should have immediately collapsed of its own weight. [...] The murder of Margaret Hassan is one more example of the pure evil represented by the Third Great Jihad being waged by countless Islamic groups. [...] The hype regarding embryonic stem cell research is at fever pitch right now, but the battle is far from over. [...] If George W. Bush misreads his moral values mandate, he may give to the Democrats the issue they need to end the Republican realignment. [...] Ron Artest, Stephen Jackson, and Jermaine O'Neal deserved their suspensions, but the behavior of the fans at The Palace of Auburn Hills was disgraceful. [...] Unlike pre-birth abortion, post-partum abortion is natural-selection-friendly, and would provide an effective filter for society by sifting out the “bad eggs” before they become full-fledged adults. [...] Republicans seem by and large to have given up any serious commitment to restrain the growth of federal spending, much less abolish ineffective or unconstitutional federal programs. [...] No sooner had SpaceShipOne, the first privately-funded manned space vehicle, safely landed in the Mojave Desert, government officials rekindled their desire to regulate this nascent private industry. [...] Ann Coulter, the wildly successful columnist, author, and commentator, spoke at Boston College Friday night. [...] Why is Iran suddenly so interested in appeasing its public enemy number one? [...] When IC started intercepting emails from Barbra Streisand and other prominent Democrats, we thought the best thing to do was share them with you. [...] If Bush has concluded that his re-election means we are all happy with his handling of Iraq, he had better think again. [...] Until through their deeds the Jihadists make the realization inescapable that their struggle is against the modern world in general and Western Civilization specifically, there is little chance that any US action will rally the Europeans. [...] When liberals speak of values they are talking about material goods and services, which are presumed to flow exclusively from collectivized government. [...] Last week the ACLU filed a lawsuit challenging Logan International Airport's "behavior pattern recognition program" on the grounds that it "condones" racial and ethnic profiling.
