    https://selwynduke.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/savage-presentation-barack-obama-chairman-of-the-bored-04-20-09.mp3 Barack Obama: Chairman of the Bored — 04/20/09 During this appearance, I discussed Barack Obama’s trip to Europe and how it really is true that empty vessels make the most noise — and very boring noise at that.

  • Out of the Closet and Into the Fire: According to Kinsey, Deviancy Is the New Normal

    By Selwyn Duke If you're like most Americans, when hearing the term "sexual revolution," you think of the 1960s. Conjured up are images of hippies in tie-dyed t-shirts, Woodstock, rock 'n' roll, and everything else that attended that tumultuous time in our history. Lying in contrast is the image of the 1950s, supposedly a time…

  • Barack Obama: Chairman of the Bored

    By Selwyn Duke Perhaps I was wrong about Barack Obama. Maybe his words can bring peace to the world. That is to say, if he keeps talking, he just may put all the world’s peoples to sleep and keep them that way.

  • Thursday’s Savage Nation Appearance – The Separation of Church and State

    https://selwynduke.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/savage-presentation-the-separation-of-church-and-state-04-09-09.mp3 — During this radio appearance I discuss the argumentation we should use to win the separation-of-church-and-state debate.

    By Selwyn Duke On the heels of the Vermont legislature’s passing of a same-sex "marriage" bill last Thursday came additional shocking news a day later, with the Iowa Supreme Court ruling unanimously to overturn its state’s ban on same-sex "marriage." It is considered a landmark victory for faux-marriage, as Iowa now has the dubious distinction…

  • The Soulless Beast of Science

    Barack Obama has lifted the ban on embryonic stem-cell research, saying that scientific decisions should be “based on facts, not ideology.” But this is nonsense. By Selwyn Duke Few of us will soon forget President Obama’s answer to the question of when human life begins. “That’s above my pay grade,” he said. It was a…

  • Obama: “I Am Not an Animal!”

    By Selwyn Duke Actually, Obama said, in so many words, "I am not a socialist!" in a delayed-reaction response to a question from a New York Times reporter.  That is to say, his initial answer was a very pithy "no," but then he felt compelled to call the interviewer back and give the scribe a…

  • The Left’s War on Words

    Bruce Walker Men have long understood the special connection between words and the transcendent. Historians like John Lukacs have noted that virtually all of our reality is words. Novelists like George Orwell saw only too well how the mutilation of words by monsters could send reality into a hopeless downward spiral.

  • The Right: Losing the Language and Losing the Debate

    By Selwyn Duke Proposition 8 is still under legal assault in California. But whether or not traditionalists lose this battle, their loose tongues help guarantee they will lose the war. According to the left, we traditionalists just aren’t as smart as they are. We’re not college professors, 95 percent of whom are registered Democrats. We’re…

  • 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…
