United We Sit on the Couch

So the California regency (er, Eighth Circuit Court) has sided with the homosexual lobby against the majority’s express will. This is no surprise. When judicial autocracy clashes with popular opinion, the entrenched power always wins. This is what leads to civil wars. The United States today is ...

The Festering Falklands Fiasco

The thirtieth anniversary of the Falklands War is rolling around, and Argentina’s leadership is starting to sound the battle cry again. Buenos Aires is already pushing for sea and air embargos of the Falklands. A British training mission in the area is scheduled to take place and include Prince ...

John McCain

Give Me a Feisty Newt Over a Limp Mitt

So the primary season is winding down, which is an absurdity since it barely got wound up. The moneymen decide early on who will best serve their interests, and they pay the media people well to make sure the chosen one is the sole “viable candidate.” Clearly I was a Ron Paul man, but I ...

State of the Unions

My maternal great-grandfather owned a large dry-goods concern which still exists. He was a decent man who took care of his employees, one of whom was Eugene V. Debs. (Though Debs later gained notoriety on behalf of workingmen, he remembered my relation fondly.) Grandfather continued to treat his ...

Ron Paul

The Shapeshifting Obstetrician

He is a confounder of the worst sort. People who call themselves Republicans hear him and approve. His ...

Sayonara, Dear Leader

So Kim Jong-il has kicked the bucket, and I can’t say I’m happy about it. Oh, I suppose I’m happy for the starving North Koreans. Except I’ve never known any North Koreans, so who knows if they really are starving? (I learned my lesson about trusting US government propaganda after carefully ...

Tahrir Square

Return to Terror Square

In the sequel, the monster always comes back stronger than before. After a florid incarnation of the so-called “Arab Spring,” Cairo’s inhabitants have just returned election ballots whose resulting extremist successes forebode a Nuclear Winter for liberty. It was in Tahrir Square that earlier ...

Deny the Day

It has been a common maxim for the past few thousand years to “seize the day.” I have never advocated this indulgent philosophy. Too often it results in giving away all one’s money, garnering either a disease or an unwanted child, and otherwise squandering in a moment what may take months or ...

J. Edgar Hoover

Hoover Was a Homo

The title of this piece is both offensive and untrue, which has not dissuaded Hollywood from making a feature film based on this very premise. In the almost forty years since his passing, the antisocial, anti-American, and anti-Western forces which seek to undermine civilization have never quite ...
