  • 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…

  • By Selwyn Duke So I see that the deep thinkers over at Sadly, No! picked up on my piece "All the President's Bigoted Men" and have much to say about me.  That's right, not the piece — me.  Their comments are an interesting read if you'd like some insight into liberal "intellectualism" (yikes, even with…

Ikenga, for a job well-done.  She articulated nicely something I've long lamented: the virulence of the virus of liberalism.  It is so virulent, in fact, that it spreads like wildfire even throughout…

  • By Selwyn Duke It's hard to imagine anything more evil: a woman kills a friend so that she can steal her unborn baby by ripping it from her womb. But it has happened before in recent years, and now it has happened again in Worcester, Massachusetts. Boston.com reports on the crime, writing, Julie Corey, 35,…
