  • Immigration, Reconsidered

    By Selwyn Duke While the Obama administration has chosen the southern side in the Mexican-Arizonan border war, most Americans stand with their countrymen.  They are troubled by the strain illegals place on services, the drugs and thugs moving north and blue-collar job prospects moving south.  Then there is another factor: the political and cultural one.

  • Cinco to Midnight: The Great Mexican End Game

    By Selwyn Duke Recently, columnist Charles Krauthammer expressed support for amnesty for illegals, while Newt Gingrich advocated a path to what he called “legality.” The two men stipulated that border control must come first, but, still, what makes these two conservatives such weak sisters on this issue?  Perhaps part of the answer was provided by…

    By Selwyn Duke Perhaps Charles Krauthammer has lunched one too many times with Linda Chavez, but he’s starting to sound more like Harry Reid than the conservative standard bearer he’s reputed to be.

Strange words, I know, but it's true. As an example, there is the story of an old friend of my father's, a man who at…

  • Our Topsy-turvy world: Invaders Awarded Money in Suit Against American Citizen

    By Selwyn Duke In keeping with the practice of arresting parents who spank ill-behaved brats and having taxpayers subsidize borrowers who can't live within their means, a rancher has just been punished for defending his own property.  Writes Reuters:

  • The Threat of Islam http://youtube.com/v/8789NMWZ9EIThis is a video that seeks to demonstrate the consequences of allowing Islam to make inroads into a nation. It presents examples of civilizations whose populations are some percent Moslem (e.g., 5, 10, 25, 50 percent) and the social effects associated with each percentage. A critic could accuse it of being…

  • Illegal Immigrants Getting Mortgages http://youtube.com/v/Zch0gUwcPQ4Most Americans aren't aware of it, but illegal aliens have long been receiving mortgage loans and buying homes. The above video is an oral presentation of a Michelle Malkin article in which she talks about this outrage and how it has contributed to the sub-prime mortgage crisis. Now, since this is…
