A POLITICALLY CORRECT GUIDE TO LANGUAGE
There is no doubt that language, and its usage, can be a highly effective tool to affect both perception and attitudes among people. Inspiring language can impel the listener to do things that would normally be beyond their capability. Depressing speech can cause those who are easily influenced to develop negative feelings that can... »
Compassion Con’s End Game: A Bukharian Lesson
by Steve Farrell Some political victories are through and through, red, white and blue, achievements that merit our applause, praise, and thanks to God. Others are illusions, frauds, and, not infrequently, ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing that also bring men to their knees … in search of mercy. As to the late “victory for liberty” in California... »
Swinging Like Monkeys from the Branches of the Liberty Tree
Recently, in a Chicago suburb, a village trustee was issued a citation for disorderly conduct when she informed two less than discerning parents that the trees of the village were to be respected as elements of nature, not utilized like playground equipment. The citation was issued after the parents mistook verbiage used as that... »
Manipulating – This is What Feminism Looks Like
 A new PR campaign to promote feminism reminds me of my children; shove everything under the bed where mom or dad can’t see it, then presto, the room appears clean and tidy. This same tactic is being used for a promotional video put out by the Feminist Majority. In the video, numerous well-known Hollywood actors,... »
American Minute with Bill Federer, General Omar Bradley
Five-Star General Omar Bradley died APRIL 8, 1981. Born 1893, in a cabin near Clark, Missouri, he was a star player on his high school baseball team. He worked for Wabash Railroad, until his Sunday School superintendent recommended he apply to West Point. President Eisenhower said, April 29, 1954: “I thank General Bradley, my old comrade in arms,... »
Women in Islam: Suffering the Barbary of an Ideology
News spread quickly that anti-Islamofascism activist Dr. Wafa Sultan has gone into hiding, along with her family. They are in hiding because of her participation in a recent debate on Al-Jazeera in which she challenged Egyptian Islamist Talat Rheim over Dutch cartoons of Mohammed and the ideology of Islam in general. For her truthful... »
The Insolent Arrogance of the Progressive-Left
A recent event in Chicago illustrates the arrogance and narcissism of the Progressive-Left – and in particular the anti-war Progressive-Left. During Easter services at Holy Name Cathedral Catholic Church in Chicago, six anti-war protesters staged a political demonstration disrupting religious services. They shouted generic anti-war slogans and squirted fake blood on themselves and the... »
Obama’s Speech Not Necessarily Honest
 Normally I don’t dwell into racial politics, but lately, like everyone else, I feel that I have become drawn into. And the reason why I will write about it now is because of the similarities I see between black leaders and feminist leaders. Both groups demand others hold themselves accountable for any “ism”,... »
The Damaging Political Legacy of Addressing the Race Issue
Barack Obama recently issued another of his linguistic masterpieces in addressing the issues of racism, hate-speech and his spiritual mentor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. His speech was pretty. It was eloquent. It was impassioned. It attempted to approach the true issue in danger of being overshadowed by a sensationalistic mainstream news media; racism in... »
Advertisers Trying To Get It – From A Woman
There has been much debate about how advertisers portray men and fathers in the media. For sometime now men’s rights and father’s rights groups have been creating awareness and engaging in protests campaigns in an effort to derail the common default logic that the best way to reach the male consumer is to... »
Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth:Part 3
I previously wrote how I feel anti-sexist advocate Jackson Katz is one of many domestic violence advocates who use hyperbole in their work, which in turn, leads society towards more of a misunderstanding, rather than a greater understanding, of domestic violence and its causes. Mr. Katz postulates that a “masculinity crisis” is responsible... »
Change Requires Going Beyond the Name on the Ballot
There has been a tremendous amount of talk about “change” this presidential election cycle. Many have pointed out that change for the sake of change is seldom – if ever – a good thing. Unless explicit details of what is to be changed, why it needs changing and just how it is to be... »
Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth:Part 2
In my last article, “Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth: Part 1″, I wrote about Jackson Katz, an anti-sexist advocate who’s work focuses on the so called “crisis” in masculinity, and how this crisis leads to violence against women and other men. I wrote that I’m sure Mr. Katz means well,... »
Barack Obama’s Word Games
Much is being made of Barack Obama’s oratory skills. True, he is quite good when it comes to captivating a crowd of sycophants and this includes the lemmings in the mainstream media. But if words matter, as Obama (and surreptitiously Duval Patrick) claims they do, then we must acknowledge that in this case words... »
Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth:Part 1
As a writer of male issues, I find myself facing a paradox when I come across individuals that are showing a genuine concern for men’s issues, but after further review, find their ideology behind the work is suspect, and/or their methods to address the problems appear to exaserbate the problem rather than offer... »
Yes, I Am An Extremist
Since I have been indirectly labeled an extremist, I feel this qualifies me to be in the position to reach out to others who may be the same. This is how I felt after reading Jonah Bloom’s article at Glenn Sack’s blog. Jonah is Executive Editor and writer for Advertising Age, a weekly marketing... »
The Race Card May Have Been Dealt, But Who’s Playing It?
Just before the South Carolina Democrat primary there was a great deal of talk about the Clinton campaign having played the “race card.” Not too many people flinched at the thought and rightfully so; the Clinton’s have a vicious and relentless political attack machine. But looking at the voter demographics from the states that... »
I Want Success… And Exploit Myself
Who is actually responsible for overt female sexualization. I asked myself this question after a week in which adult women were reported to be engaged in what some in society would label “improper” or “lewd” behavior. First, the Sacramento King cheerleaders have brought attention upon themselves after provocative photos of the women surfaced on the... »
