As CNN explains it; “An independent report released Wednesday into the leaked “Climategate” e-mails found no evidence to question the “rigor and honesty” of scientists involved.†That seems to be the general conclusion offered by Muir Russell, chairman of the select group of political insiders who conducted the review. The review focused on “the...
Last week the General Assembly of the United Nations voted to create the UN Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women. When reading about these developments the first question that springs to mind is whether this body will primarily work towards gender equality or the empowerment of women, since these two goals...
It reminds me of a lesson I learned studying the life and works of Nikolai Bukharin. Nikolai Bukharin is one of the leading Bolshevik theorists you never heard of. There's a reason for that. He believed he had a personal exemption from the boomerang effect. - Steve Farrell
I am making a statement less on economic theory, than I am making an observation on the message our intuitive natures are very likely receiving, many of us at least - the Obama and Krugman recipe for a utopian Now is false. It is false for the Now, and it is false for the...
The events triggered by the Declaration of Independence were not a revolution. They were a struggle to gain independence from arbitrary exercise of government power. Few people ever read beyond the stirring opening sentences of the Declaration. The meat of the document is in the bottom part of the second paragraph: But when a...
It bears repeating: If we hope to halt, reverse and permanently alter America's descent into the gutter of debauchery and that political tyranny that is forever its companion  "education is the key." And if so, it must be, it can only be that that education is initiated, financed, and controlled by parents,...
Marxian economic dogma explains why liberal-progressives, the Obama administration in particular, push for restructuring our constitutional government to concentrate more power in the hands of labor unions and the Federal government. Marxian economic dogma has been emphasized to an increasing degree in our colleges and universities, even in our high schools, since Franklin Roosevelt’s...
But again, what of this charge, "traitor"? A decade earlier, in February of 1766, Richard Henry Lee authored another document, the Westmoreland Resolution, probably the first public and open resistance to the Mother Country. It bound citizens to support “our lawful sovereign, George the Third … so far as is consistent with the preservation...
A central tenet in liberal-progressive-socialism is re-directing allegiance from the family as the primary social unit and elevation of the political state as the sole source of individual well-being. Ultimately fathers' role in this social paradigm is relegated to anonymously furnishing sperm to donor banks.
Tactical Animals People tend to be tactical, not strategic, animals: they’d rather fight fires than prevent them. Procrastination and denial are their extinguishers of choice, at home and the workplace. BP’s foreseen disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, ruining lives like a predictable divorce, is but the latest example. People delay divorce for years,...
Freedom Isn’t Free Each year, we observe Memorial Day — formerly Decoration Day, rooted in post-Civil War times — which officially became a federal holiday in 1971. What’s all the fuss? Most people view Memorial Day as the official start of summer, a time to party. Given that US school children know more about...
It’s official. Senators John Kerry and Joe Lieberman have signaled the end of their political careers. The two have introduced what they’ve titled the “American Power Act.†Yep, it’s a global warming bill – Cap-n-Trade, Cap-n-Tax, etc. The premise for this bill is that the industrial emissions of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) are causing global...
Following is a simplified description of the main statistical error found with the “hockey stick†graph of temperatures during the past millennium. Michael Mann, Raymond Bradley, and Malcolm Hughes are three respected scientists in America. In 1998 and 1999, they jointly published some research on how temperatures have changed during the past millennium. According to their research,...
The UK general election takes place on the 6th of May. Generally speaking, my interest in party politics is piqued only when it coincides with gender politics issues, and consequently, even though I’m 34 years old, this will be the first time I have voted. I’m going to vote for the centre right Conservative...
Parental Alienation Day is one holiday that no one wants to celebrate. For many the name stirs a mild curiosity. For others, a searing pain that cuts through their very soul.
Over the weekend, collective members of the goof-ball left met once again on Chris Matthews’ show to plot the next ratchet yank in national tension; what immoral people do when facts and logic are not on their side. Yes, they made the racism charge again, making it painfully obvious that they intend to support...
Only a matter of time, you must think, before you can call a toll-free number at the White House to place a bet on your favorite football team. Let the games begin. The Obama administration is playing politics by offering some lucky contest winner $2500 of your American dollars for best pro-Obama Big Government...
NASA is a public activity, paid for by Americans. Stealing from NASA is stealing from The People. It’s not a policy choice, it’s a crime. Barack Obama spent Tax Day “reassuring†Florida voters that money will keep flowing to NASA. (article) But instead of pursuing cutting-edge space technology and exploration, there will be a...
Far-left advocacy group Greenpeace receives large donations from rich and powerful people, enough to drown the entire notion of political independence and non-partisanship. The mechanism of receiving funding – through foundations – is the same as the opposition “right wing†organizations that it criticizes for funding bias. Greenpeace is an international conglomerate, composed of...
