  • The Economy is so Bad That . . . .

    OK, I usually don't post emails I receive, but this one is just too good.  I hope you enjoy it. The economy is so bad that: I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail. I ordered a burger at McDonald's and the kid behind the counter asked, "Can you afford fries with that?" CEOs…

  • The Christmas Controversy: Duke Responds to Reader

    Karl wrote: Mr. Duke: I sent your link to my list. This came in from a fellow who lives in south Africa. He's a good man. He gave me permission to forward to you. If you have time to correspond with him, I would be interested in being copied. Sent: 12/24/2009 12:09:14 P.M. Eastern Standard…

  • The Irrationality of the Left: Duke Responds to Reader on Constitution

    By Selwyn Duke Since an understanding of the Constitution is so rare nowadays, I've decided to respond to a poster who advocates the reckless and unlawful "living document" philosophy.  I address his points at length, and I think you may find elements of the response useful in framing your arguments when defending the Constitution. Robert…

  • The GAP's Relativistic "Holiday Commercial" http://youtube.com/v/1JhyjQQ9Pcw While many wouldn't classify this GAP commercial as an "attack" upon Christmas, it certainly is an example of the demotion of it.

Pelosi Scoffs at the Constitution http://youtube.com/v/-xYCqRhXawc In this video, a reporter actually decides to do his job and ask Nancy Pelosi what in the Constitution gives the federal government the right to force citizens to buy health insurance. Her response?   "Are you serious?! Are you serious?!" That's…

  • Member of Major Hasan's Mosque: "I honestly have no pity for them [the Fort Hood victims]" http://youtube.com/v/npAvM-VWwhc By Selwyn Duke Here is a BBC interview with "Duane," a member of the Fort Hood shooter's mosque. A good example of the jihadist mentality harbored by some within our borders, he says that he won't "condemn" Nidal…

  • The Blasphemy Resolution Story: A Clarification

    By Selwyn Duke Recently I wrote a piece titled "Obama Pushing Secular UN Anti-Free Speech Resolution," wherein I reported on Barack Obama's support of a Muslim-inspired United Nations anti-blasphemy resolution. In it I cited a liberal professor named Jonathan Turley, who wrote the following: While attracting surprisingly little attention, the Obama administration supported the effort…

  • The School Where Minorities Weren’t Punished for Fear of “Racism” Charges

    By Selwyn Duke Recently I wrote about the Tucson Unified School District, where the powers-that-be decided that punishment should be meted out based on racial quotas. And during the last couple of days I posted videos of British citizens being punished for expressing politically incorrect ideas (one couple ran afoul of the "law," to use…

  • Elderly Woman Persecuted for Expressing Christian Beliefs http://youtube.com/v/h0MV3Ls1-BMThis is yet another story about an English Christian being persecuted for voicing her beliefs. In this case the victim is Pauline Howe, who received a visit from the police after writing a letter to local authorities expressing displeasure with a homosexual parade.

  • Free Speech is Dead in England – Conquered by Islam http://youtube.com/v/5PTBIGxJb5A Could you imagine being brought up on criminal charges simply for debating religion with a Moslem? Well, that's exactly what happened to the two English Christians featured in this news report. After Ben And Sharon Vogelenzang engaged in a debate about faith with an…
