  • Back to School with Obama: Educational Talking Points 101

    By Selwyn Duke At high noon today, EDT, Barack Obama issued a challenge to America’s schoolchildren. In his much anticipated back-to-school speech, he appealed to students to stay in school, work hard, set goals, and not use personal crosses as an excuse to fail. It was, by and large, a message so positive that critics…

  • Obama’s Speech to the Children of America

    By Selwyn Duke Whether or not President Barack Obama’s September 8 back-to-school speech will be “historic” as his Department of Education (DOE) states, it certainly is headline grabbing. His talk is currently the talk of the nation, but thus far the only historic aspect of it is the opposition it has inspired. People are divided…

  • University Perversity: America Taking the Stupid Pill

    The only thing worse than what college students are not learning is what they are learning. By Selwyn Duke It is said that our educators are preparing the young for the future, and this may very well be true. That is, if the movie Idiocracy — which portrays a dystopian future America in which sheer…

  • United Nations Plan: Teach Masturbation to 5-Year-Olds

    By Selwyn Duke A while back we heard about the United Nations pact that would prohibit parents from choosing their children’s religion. Now the UN is issuing another dystopian proposal, a sex-education curriculum that would teach children as young as five about masturbation and “gender roles, stereotypes and gender-based violence.” And those are just two…

  • Guest Piece: The Wages of Appeasemennt

    By Bruce Walker The world has known for many years that the wages of appeasement are the loss of moral high ground to monstrous villains.  During the Cold War, although America usually kept its military power adequate to deter Soviet aggression, the American Left (and European Left) blithely pretended that a regime which conspired with…

  • Talk Show Host Michael Savage’s Website Attacked by Hackers

    By Selwyn Duke Just recently, talk show host Michael Savage had to endure an attack on his character when the British government associated him with terrorists and other criminals and banned him from traveling to the U.K.  But on Saturday the attack — or at least an attack — was brought to his own shores…

  • Obama and Legislating Morality in Health Care

    In an effort to regain momentum in the health-care debate, Barack Obama is attempting to reframe the push for government intervention as a moral issue. By Selwyn Duke Just a few short months ago, few imagined that Barack Obama would have trouble marshalling a Democrat majority for one of his major initiatives. He was the…

  • The Race Idiots

    By Selwyn Duke With relativistic people, there is no such thing as a true axiom, yet you’d never know it listening to our modern mantras.  We hear things such as “Our strength lies in our diversity,” “Religion has caused all the wars in history,” and “Everything is a matter of perspective” proclaimed with theological assurance. …

  • “Dr. Happy” Brought in to “Toughen Up” Army Troops

    By Selwyn Duke When we hear that the U.S. Army is spending $117 million to toughen up combat troops mentally, we certainly don’t expect the ancient Spartan regime of blood soup, reed beds and whippings to inure one to pain. Yet we might not guess a program of “emotional resiliency classes,” either. But the money…
