  • Eliot Spitzer: Goodbye and Good Riddance

    By Selwyn Duke As a native New Yorker, I’ve long associated Eliot Spitzer with prostitution — the political variety, that is.  He’s a man who would, it seems, do anything to advance himself, including using his office when attorney general to harass pro-life organizations on behalf of the abortionists who greased his palms.  In this…

  • Enviro-lies

    By Selwyn Duke Upon being asked what wisdom was, the ancient sage Confucius once replied, "Wisdom is, when you know something, knowing that you know it, and when you do not know something, knowing that you do not know it." If this definition is correct, I would say most politicians are sorely lacking in the…

    NEW YORK – Gov. Eliot Spitzer has told senior advisers that he had been involved in a prostitution ring, The New York Times reported Monday, citing an anonymous top administration official. Read the rest here.

  • Obama Panders to Radical Homosexual Activists

    Barack Obama, shameless demagogue that he is, is now pandering to the homosexual community, promising to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (signed into law by Bill Clinton) and further undermine Western Civilization.  Writing about it, WorldNetDaily.com tells us:

  • Rats and Socialized Medicine

    By Selwyn Duke Out of Britain comes a story about a teenager who decided against having an operation because he was told that there might be a dead rat in the operating room.  Ah, another one of the beauties of socialized medicine. 

  • WorldNetDaily – Planned Parenthood: Wanting fewer blacks ‘understandable’

    The bigoted ideas of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger are well documented.   She is a woman who once said, "We do not want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population." Now, WorldNetDaily.com writes of a sting operation indicating that her spirit lives on within the organization.  WND columnist Bob…

  • Making Government Indoctrination Compulsory

    By Selwyn Duke It’s hard to think of anything more near and dear to our hearts, anything of which we’re more protective, than our children. It’s also hard to imagine a more important right than that to raise one’s children in accordance with the dictates of a well-formed conscience. Now, though, the 2nd Appellate Court…

  • Vindicating My Assessment of Most Voters

    By Selwyn Duke I just issued a piece titled "Why Most Voters Shouldn’t Vote," and it has evoked a great response.  Virtually all the emails have been positive, by the way, but I nevertheless would like to buttress its thesis.  So I’m providing a couple of links to Sean Hannity’s "Man on the Street" interviews,…

  • Why Most Voters Shouldn’t Vote

    By Selwyn Duke Often the most fanciful ideas become the least questioned assumptions. In this election season a few have made themselves apparent, such as the notion that “change” is good by definition and “experience” is definitely good. Yet an even better example is the oft-repeated platitude that greater voter participation yields a healthier republic.

  • Is South America on the Brink of War?

    By Selwyn Duke It has received scant attention in the midst of our election season jostling, but a very explosive situation has developed in South America.  The Washington Times treated the matter yesterday, writing:
