    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 quality.

  • Exposing the Galileo Myth

    By Selwyn Duke

    I responded today to an American Thinker piece by fellow AT contributor James Lewis titled "The Epicycles of Global Warming."  While Lewis’ article was very well done, it included a recapitulation of the Galileo myth, and I was moved to address it.  Here is my response:

  • Bill O’Reilly’s Bimbo Brigade

    By Selwyn Duke

    Perhaps you haven’t noticed, but there’s an inordinate number of women — blond women — on pugnacious pundit Bill O’Reilly’s "O’Reilly Factor."  Of course, it’s impossible to find media outlets that don’t assemble their stable based on a quota model; it’s customary to hire a certain number of news babes and people of various ethnicities and racial backgrounds, regardless of competence.  But I sense that O’Reilly has taken it a step further.

  • 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.

  • 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:

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

    938962_low
    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 Unruh tells us:

  • Making Government Indoctrination Compulsory

    2052845_lowBy 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 in Los Angeles has abrogated that
    right, ruling that a homeschooling couple, Phillip and Mary Long, must
    enroll their two youngest children in a government school or "legally
    qualified" private one.

  • 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, wherein he asks everyday folks simple questions about politics and American history.  The ignorance is staggering.

  • Why Most Voters Shouldn’t Vote

    2005642_lowBy 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.
