By Selwyn Duke For a long time now, people have lamented the state of younger generations. And for a long time now, they have been right. If this makes me sound like a fuddy-duddy who bemoans the spirit of the age simply because he long ago wedded his own, know that indicting the next generation…

By Selwyn Duke It isn't just Bill Ayers, the ex-Weathermen terrorist and self-described small-c communist, who is happy about Barack Obama's presidential victory. No, the big-c variety are quite pleased as well. Writes the red rag People's Weekly World (PWW {"People's" in a name is always a bad sign}):

By Selwyn Duke It's really quite strange when you encounter a theologian or man of the cloth who appears to have no faith. One could really wonder why they devote their lives to something they seem to believe is a fairytale. I suppose they're much like experts in ancient literature. Some people who fit this…

By Selwyn Duke While the debate over evolution in schools has been developing for many years in a primordial soup of passion, generally speaking, it hasn't reached a very high level of complexity.

Ex-KGB Defector on Demoralization in America http://youtube.com/v/qlpODYhnPEoThis is a very interesting video a reader sent me featuring Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov. He was a KGB man who was trained in subversion and who has some very interesting things to report about how communists work to corrupt the judgment and degrade the will of a targeted…

By Selwyn Duke Quite a while ago, I wrote a piece titled "Conservatism is Dead; Long Live Conservatism?" in which I explained the process by which the right loses the culture war and why the I won't call myself a "conservative." A good example of the fault I describe in the article was exhibited on…

My recent piece, "Obama: Fear and the Security Force," evoked more responses than perhaps any other article I've ever written. Many of them were very worthwhile contributions, and I've chosen three that I'm sure you'll find interesting. In the first one a reader posits a theory as to the purpose behind Barack Obama's Universal Voluntary…
