When Plato thought and wrote, it wasn't to make sure the trans-gendered anarchist had a voice. It was to find the truth about humanity and its soul.

Yesterday, I wrote that the IPCC should be shut down and that the core conspirators should be hunted down and prosecuted. That commentary did not go far enough. To avoid break-down of the modern world, the IPCC must be condemned and steps taken to assure that similar activities are not started in the future....
The most frustrating thing I’ve dealt with in professional life was eight years of outrageous, baseless charges against President George W. Bush on matters of faith. Even when Bush was simply asked about his faith, and responded with utterly benign statements, like saying he couldn’t imagine surviving the presidency “without faith in the Lord,â€Â...
The question is raised: Is there a place for social conservatism in a conservative political movement? While it seems that many (informal personal polling) take the question seriously, and most often say yes – the more the merrier – there’s influence in numbers – a few shrug it off as part of a vast...
The Wall Street Journal reports that lawmakers are working on a national biometric identification card all American workers would eventually be required to obtain. The “national ID” thing again. Let’s do a little quick catching up, with a reprint of a 2001 article; Too late to stop national ID. “Imagine a state in which...
High and/or rising unemployment is always a political liability for a president, and so Barack Obama has taken the offensive in trying to persuade the American people that his team can get Americans back to work. In November, Obama took credit for having created 640,000 jobs. That audacious assertion was less than persuasive, coming...
I’ll begin this article with a few justifications to try to preempt irate emails from Obama supporters: First off, I write on faith, politics, and the presidency, having done books on the subject and lots of articles; this includes the faith of President Obama. Second, I’ve been recently writing on Mao’s China; specifically, on...
What is a “paltry†one-hundred billion dollars in comparison to the trillions that are being robbed from this and future generations by a government that believes so vehemently in its socialist ideologies that neither the law nor the unbroken track record of past failures in such endeavors pose even the slightest obstacle to their...
Once again the nativity season brings attacks by those offended by ubiquitous displays of Christmas. This Christmas, I’m drawn to the similar ways some Christians and Republicans create opposition to their beliefs and, like the innkeepers of Bethlehem, provide no shelter for travelers. Every year brings new incidents of holiday political correctness, from removal...
Regardless of its specifics, if any so-called “healthcare reform†bill passes the Congress, it will be signed by Obama and invoked thereafter as cart blanche for an administration that has already mocked the limits of constitutional law in its takeover of the banks and the American auto industry.
Most descriptions of the award of the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize to Barack Obama have been shortened. The Nobel Prize website says it has been awarded to Obama “for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.” One of the criticisms of this award is that Obama was nominated after only...
Despite being the minority party in both houses of Congress, it is imperative that Republicans mount a principled and united resistance if their party is to retain any credibility as a viable alternative to the statism and despotism of the Democrats.
When a political movement uses lies and fraud to advance a stated cause, it should be self-evident that the “cause†is of no real concern, but only a means of gaining leverage for an ulterior agenda. Such is the only plausible conclusion that can be drawn from this revelation of total fraud at the...
Editor’s note: A version of this article first appeared at American Thinker. President Obama last week held a “Town Hall Meeting with Future Chinese Leaders†in the thriving city of Shanghai, itself a remarkable sign of what free-market forces can produce in a short time, even in a place that only decades ago was...
A close examination of the subtleties of the McCain political debacle reveals the truth of what heartland America was expressing during the past two major elections, and what the GOP needs to acknowledge if it is to turn the political tide back on the left. So far however, it does not seem to be...
America honors its deceased presidents, its fallen troops, its late senators, and even its musicians and movie stars. But what about its veterinarians? Well, there’s one veterinarian who deserves pause for recognition. His name was Nels Konnerup. He recently passed away at age 92. Born in Everett, Washington on December 4, 1916, Konnerup was...
Dr. Paul Kengor interviews Dr. George Schroeder, a physician working in America and a brand new American citizen who was born and raised not far from the Berlin Wall. Today, Dr. Schroeder fights the fight for freedom, including a free-market healthcare system in America. He is eager to share his unique experiences as a...
The American people overwhelmingly identify with conservatism, but no longer with Republicans, who all too often disavow any loyalty to it. Having vainly attempted to ingratiate themselves with the political “center,†GOP “moderates†lost touch with the conservative base.
Is this the great Republican strategy to turn the country back from its current downfall? Do Republican “leaders†really believe that the outrage from middle America over the thuggish nationalization of industry, banking, and possibly the healthcare field by Obama and his minions can be channeled into a boost for the candidacy of a...
An epic battle is shaping up between the leftist federal government, and those peasants out in the American heartland who doggedly cling to the notion that the country belongs to them and their posterity. This contest promises to evolve into liberalism’s “Tet Offensive,†the outcome of which, they hope, will be a decisive victory...
