By Selwyn Duke We’ve all heard about the little dust-up between Black Chamber of Commerce president and CEO Harry Alford and Democrat senator Barbara Boxer during an Environment & Public Works (EPW) hearing on “green” jobs. Boxer, the chairman of the EPW committee, was trying to refute a report commissioned by Alford’s organization stating that…

By Selwyn Duke While America may not have anything resembling Saudi Arabia’s religious police, called “The Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice,” we do have our own strange version of vice squads. Only, the trespasses they root out today are less likely to involve heroin and harlots than Twinkies and trans-fats.…

A Swedish couple refuses to reveal whether their two-year-old child is a boy or girl, claiming that “gender” is a “social construction.” By Selwyn Duke Sweden has long been known for pristine lakes and forests, long-legged blondes and ultra-safe cars, but it’s now distinguishing itself in another, more dubious, way: as the nation of feminism…

By Selwyn Duke Ever since the separation-of-church-and-state ruling in 1947, there has been an ever-intensifying effort to denude our public sphere of religious symbols and sentiments. The latest attack is a lawsuit to prevent “In God We Trust” and the Pledge of Allegiance from being engraved on the newly-built Capitol Visitor Center in Washington, D.C.…

By Selwyn Duke If you’ve ever seen the movie Idiocracy, the title of this piece may seem familiar. The film is a dystopian comedy about a futuristic America in which complete ignorance is the norm. People are inarticulate to the point where even those of status — politicians, doctors, etc. — mangle the language and…

By Selwyn Duke If art imitates life, then life is starting to seem an awful lot like death. This occurs to me when I think about Bruno, the latest film disgorged by English comedian Sacha Baron Cohen. Cohen, known for doing mock interviews as the characters Ali G and Borat Sagdiyev, has always specialized in…
