If Americans were truly outraged or offended by crude behavior, bad language, or the glorification of violence, they wouldn’t be satisfied with the apology of one bad comedian or the suppression of one lowlife’s attempts at financial redemption. There is overwhelming research that shows marriage benefits both men and women in terms of their financial and emotional well-being. So what do we need to do to entice men back into the courtship ritual? Why does Target have a problem with the Salvation Army Christmas bell-ringers? Many American foreign policy reverses are rooted in her provincially induced willingness to let happen what could be avoided abroad for "it does not really matter." But "going home" while seeking "better understanding" will not convince the Iranians and North Koreans that America needs not to be feared for she is not intent to subjugate them and [...] Add it all up, and then ask yourself the Big Question: Exactly what is it we’re protecting by not having a Constitutional Convention and revamping the whole ball of wax? Two presumptions are built into every state’s child support system: the mother always is a truthful victim whose basic needs are underfunded while the father always lies, hides assets, and squanders money on fancy cars and loose women. Opponents have filed a second lawsuit challenging the Maricopa County Attorney's prosecution of illegal immigrants under the state's anti-human smuggling statute. 162 convictions have been obtained so far under the statute. Forty-three years after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, the crime is no longer the stuff of automatic annual remembrance, yet most Kennedy myths live on, stronger than ever. The liberal media denounce Pope Benedict's adherence to Biblical and historical truth as rigidity. They want pragmatism and flexibility, which amounts to moral relativism. How much money does Michael Richards have to give to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to buy back his reputation? Negotiation with the Asaad regime would be a Syriaus mistake. Democrats are slowly coming to the painful realization that being an opposition party, which merely catcalls and criticizes those who are actually governing, is far easier than being a leadership party that must formulate and implement ideas, and which is henceforth held accountable for them. In truth, conservatives do not really want intellectual diversity, and rightfully so. With the same ardor as Communism, Islam treats generosity, broadmindedness, tolerance, gentleness, freedom of women and of manners, democratic values, as signs of decadence. These are the weaknesses that it seeks to exploit, by means of "useful idiots," those of good consciences imbued with fine sentiments, in order to impose the Koranic order on the [...] President Lincoln asked Americans to set aside time "as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens." We would give thanks for the blessings God had granted us, "solemnly, reverently and gratefully . . . as with one heart and one voice by the whole American People." Excerpts from a Thanksgiving sermon on what Christians are thankful for. Less than a century after the famous "monkey trial," America once again stands at the precipice of a traditionalist versus secularist battle over the fate of a nation and a culture. Bernard Chapin takes on Professor W.C. Harris, author of "In My Day It Used to Be Called a Limp Wrist: Flip-Floppers, Nelly Boys, and Homophobic Rhetoric in the 2004 US Presidential Campaign." Let’s be perfectly plain about it: Feminism is the antithesis of everything conservatism stands for. Instead of focusing on maintaining sound money by controlling the money supply, the Fed's liberal-economics brain-trusters can't resist presuming to control the entire economy. To give Iraqis the best chance of ending the violence and recovering from the war, a U.S. timetable for withdrawal should be combined with a formal partition of the country. Unlike any other intellectual figure of the twentieth century, Milton Friedman transformed public debate away from the suicidal path of command economies and toward economies based on individual choice, free markets, and personal responsibility. The post-election re-emergence of realists from Bush the Elder’s foreign policy team threatens to further undermine the U.S. commitment to the spread of democracy in the Middle East and validates those would-be reformers in Iraq who kept a low profile for fear of being betrayed by a cynical and cowardly U.S political establishment. Judith Regan has joined O.J. Simpson in his quest for the real killer of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. |
