  • College Professor Whines about Her Financial Woes

    By Selwyn Duke What many don’t want to mention about our financial crisis is that the greatest culprit is individual irresponsibility.  This is because many of us are part of the problem, and we don’t own up to this for two reasons.  Most obviously, people don’t like to admit fault.  But an even greater factor…

  • The French First Lady: Eye Candy and Air

    By Selwyn Duke It’s hard to shock a man living in a planetary insane asylum, so it doesn’t raise my eyebrows when I watch a people commit suicide.  Nevertheless, I had to shake my head when I read about how Barack Obama’s election has inspired France to consider affirmative-action policies to combat their dreaded "white…

  • Impeach Schwarzenegger

    By Selwyn Duke Proving that he is about as conversant with American civics as his foreign accent would indicate, Arnold Schwarzenegger has essentially stated that the will of the people means nothing to him.  Michael Rothfeld and Tony Barboza writing at the Los Angeles Times report: 

  • Communism on the Rise

    By Selwyn Duke It may be clichéd to quote George Santayana and say that those who forget the mistakes of the past are damned to repeat them, but truer words were never spoken. Although it may be hard for those who remember Soviet bread lines to believe – and even harder for the well-versed in…

  • Laissez-faire Lies

    By Selwyn Duke It’s no secret to the informed that statists are using the current financial crisis as a pretext to increase the power and scope of government.  Yet, the bold-faced lies shameless politicians and pundits will tell in the service of this cause are striking.  And one of them concerns the fanciful notion that…

  • Reader Email: You’re Wrong, Duke, the Constitution is a Perfect Document!

    By Selwyn Duke Recently I wrote a piece titled "Obama the Justifier," which exposed President-elect Uh-change’s contempt for the Constitution.  In it, while I defended the supreme law of the land, I also stated that is wasn’t as if people such as myself believe the Constitution is infallible.  My purpose in doing this was to…

  • Jesse Jackson’s Tears

    Jesse Jackson was moved to tears by Barack Obama’s presidential victory last night, but what was the man really thinking?  Well, since I’ve been blessed with the power of telepathy, I can tell you. Ol’ Jesse was truly moved by the realization of how this historic day had changed things irrevocably and thought to himself:…

  • Historic Election: America Chooses Her First Red President

    By Selwyn Duke Congratulations, America!  You have elected a fairly nice looking, charismatic, well-managed Marxist.  Equally ridiculous, the odious Al Franken is ahead of incumbent Republican Norm Coleman in the Minnesota senate race.  Well, Franken was never funny as a comedian, but he sure will be funny (in the strangest of ways) as a senator.…

  • Obama the Justifier

    By Selwyn Duke Election reportage is reaching a fever pitch, and one of the hottest stories concerns a recently revealed interview Barack Obama gave to Chicago Public Radio in 2001. In it, then Illinois state senator Obama talked about whether his desire to spread the wealth around might be better accomplished legislatively or through the…
