The Kicker of St. John’s Wood: A Book Review

We Shall Not Go Quietly Into the Night
After the shellacking of the Republican Party by the Democrats on November fourth people are asking themselves “what happened?” and “what do we do next?”.

During his travels he has... »

Don’t lie to your kids this Christmas

Palin and those “scary” Christians
Pentecostals number between 10-30 million in the United States depending on how you define the term and make up one quarter of all Christians worldwide.

Civility at Saddleback
I watched a good portion the Saddleback Civil Forum on Saturday evening. It was a decent showing for both candidates but McCain probably did the best in what was viewed by many conservatives as a possible ambush by a pro-Obama evangelical pastor at a forum conceived by a variety of ideologically questionable characters.

The Jerry Springer Party
The Democratic party is swiftly turning into the Jerry Springer Party. The Democratic presidential contest is about one degree away from bleeped out tirades and security guards tackling the guests amid the biting, scratching and name-calling. JERRY! JERRY! JERRY!

In Defense of Blackwater and the Modern Day ‘Merc’
The mere mention of private military companies is enough to panic the OH MY GOD squad of American society and leaves them loudly shrieking fascism and totalitarianism, murder and thuggery. There have been scores of private military companies and security firms employed by the Department of Defense and the State Department in Iraq since the war... »

The Rise of the Anti-Jihadists
