I've written about Mack on numerous occasions, including...

Barometer of American Values
Paris Hilton isn’t the problem; she’s just a barometer of American values. A highschool dropout with a GED and lots of plastic surgery, she is nothing more than the creation of a shallow, aimless society in search of itself: the real problem. America’s endless obsession with this professional attention-whore is more...

By R.F. Doyle The men’s rights movement is often dismissed as a “bunch of angry men.†Of course we’re angry, and justifiably so, just as Jews are angry about their treatment at the hands of Nazis. The men’s/fathers’ movement, the struggle for men’s rights, is positive, not a reaction to women’s lib, though it’s...

Sen. Joseph Lieberman’s claim to fame is his unflagging support of President George W. Bush’s disastrous Iraq war.

Within a few hours of my blog post Protest TIME Magazine's Father's Day Hatchet Job on Dads! (June 12th, 2007), several hundred angry fathers and their supporters wrote TIME magazine to protest their father-bashing article "Daddy Dearest: What Science Tells Us About Fatherhood."
Some of the letters are very pointed and/or poignant, particularly the many letters...

Thank you for the kind words. They’re most appreciated. Yes, I’m still in the struggle, but concentrating on writing about the broad picture at my website — www.mensdefense.org. Not many in the movement these days have ever seen the old Liberator (ACFC is still publishing 4 issues a year, but mostly confined to promotion...

Everybody knows that the CEO of CBS signing Katie Couric to a $15 million a year contract was the dumbest thing Les Moonves had done since green-lighting “Baby Bob,” but now the predictable excuses are flying.
Why are Katie Courics ratings at CBS so bad? It’s not the fault of CBS — it’s the fault...

Hallelujah, brothers and sisters. Paris Hilton has already seen the light. In a collect call to Barbara Walters, herself most recently known for playing straight man, if you’ll pardon the expression, to Rosie O’Donnell, the hotel heiress, party girl, and aspiring theologian poured her diminutive heart out. She’s gotten, like, much more spiritual, and...

“Who are you to question somebody else’s faith?†This was the question put to me by Alan Colmes on Fox News’ Hannity and Colmes on February 28, 2007. I have subsequently asserted that every American has the right to question anything they choose apropos someone seeking the highest office in the land. I might...
