Tony Snow: A Gentleman and Conservative Warrior

Monday, July 14th, 2008

This past year has been a saddening one for many conservatives, who lost William F. Buckley, Jr. in February and then United States Senator Jesse Helms earlier this month, on Independence Day.

McCain lacks straight talk and conservative positions in debate

Friday, February 1st, 2008

John McCain is sort of like the guy who thinks if he says something enough, people will believe it even though he does the exact opposite. McCain’s strategy is to use the phrase “straight talk” so much people forget that he has an extensive history of waffling. If McCain becomes president, he will be... »

Britney Spears: Female casualty of the child support and custody system

Monday, January 7th, 2008

The political pundits are wrong about Britney Spears’ bout of bizarre behavior. She is not mentally ill. She is like many other parents, sadly, who have been pushed to their emotional limits by a viciously unfair child support and custody legal system that allows one parent to abuse the other. Consider the timing: her... »

Democrats Greedily Blocking Healthcare for our Returning Veterans

Monday, November 19th, 2007

Whether one agrees with the war or not, individual patriotic Americans who signed up to serve our country, putting their lives in danger, should not be blamed.

Promoting emotional gender differences is hurting marriage rates

Monday, September 24th, 2007

Women can no longer be taken for granted when it comes to desiring marriage. Since they’re increasingly becoming financially independent, marriage “security” means they’ll probably end up paying for some guy’s kids from a prior relationship. »

Defense in Bandy Child Porn Case Distorts the Truth

It is unfortunate to see Wendy McElroy, a former writer for my website intellectualconservative.com (and who has always been very open about her libertarian views on pornography) drink the kool-aid of 20/20 and other media spin regarding the prosecution of Matt Bandy. The prosecution by my boss Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas was not... »
