Over the weekend I watched an hour-long program on Joe Namath. Namath is best remembered for winning Super Bowl III against the heavily favored Baltimore Colts. Now we learn that a lot of teenagers (and adults) may not be able to decipher this year’s Super Bowl number. III is easy.

There’s saber rattling in the Middle East; Obama has shut down a job-creating pipeline that would make us less dependent on foreign sources of oil from less than friendly nations; unemployment is still high; there is no budget; spending is out of control; our elected representatives support bills they don’t

Actor Mark Wahlberg, in the February issue of Men’s Journal, claimed that if he had been on Flight 93 which crashed into a field in Pennsylvania after being hijacked on 9/11, he would have thwarted the terrorists. Here is what he said: “If I was on that plane with my

If you are anywhere near my age, you will remember the 1957 teenage horror films I Was A Teenage Frankenstein and  I Was a Teenage Werewolf, that starred Michael Landon of Little House on the Prairie fame. Well, I was a teenage custodian and cleaner of pots and pans, and

Christian pastors, you are now free to talk about politics from the pulpit. You can even endorse a candidate. And when your sermon is finished, you can register people to vote right in your church. Who gave you this right? Well, first, the men who drafted the Constitution, specifically, the

Secular Libertarians are working hard to make the case that their worldview “can fix what’s wrong with America.” In their book The Declaration of Independents, authors Nick Gillespie and Matt Welch argue for a Libertarian ethic based on the Declaration of Independence, a document they describe as “the most influential

Once again Liberal Democrats are trying to blame some of the violence that is going on in our nation on the Tea Party movement. Democrat Party Chairperson Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is the latest example. She “has refreshed the false and disgraceful meme that the Tea Party is at fault for the

When John Harrison was a senior at Druid Hills High School in DeKalb County, a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia, he was miffed when he was rebuffed by parents at a private school when they refused to purchase a discount coupon for Domino’s Pizza. The money was to go to his

Learning a foreign language is difficult for lots of people. The older you get, the more difficult it becomes. Some people find that it’s easy to learn a new language, and once you learn one new language, subsequent languages are less difficult to master. I’ll never know, because English is

When the government passed the ADA, the Americans with Disabilities Act, in 1990, most people thought the new laws would protect people with physical disabilities from employment discrimination.

Just before a long Christmas weekend the “Obama Justice Department issued a legal opinion that permits states to set up nonsports Internet gambling.” The opinion upends decades of opposition and “contrary decisions, but its real effect will be on the poor (and young) who suffer the most from gambling.” People

It’s been said that the victors write the textbooks. I supposed this is the way it should be. As a nation, if we want to know who has won the ideological war in America, take a look at the our textbooks and popular writing on historical subjects. Dr. Gary North

15 of the 19 homicide bombers on September 11 were from Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is a net exporter of aid to terrorist nations and groups. Even so, Rep. Kay Granger (R-Texas) argued earlier this year that Saudi Arabia is a key ally of the U.S. and that they had

How were Christian institutions like Harvard, Yale, and Princeton lost to the humanists? There was no crossing of swords or firing of weapons. The presidents of these institutions were not kidnapped and held for ransom if Christianity was not expunged from the curriculum. The takeover came by way of a

A battle is brewing about the worldview of the latest Muppet film. Eric Bolling of Fox News said, “I’ll put it out there. Is liberal Hollywood using class warfare to kind of brainwash our kids? We’re teaching our kids class warfare. What are we, communist China?” Actually, Bolling didn’t say

Newt Gingrich made some media waves with his comments about how poor kids should be taught how to work, including taking jobs at the schools they attend to perform janitorial work. As usual, Poverty-Pimp Al Sharpton took offense. In case you haven’t heard Newt’s remarks, here are a few of

Let’s get something straight. The only money that government has, it takes from people who work for a living. The only money government has to lend, it took from you and me. In a way, when these student loans are paid back, the money should go back to the people

If your children go to a public school, there’s a good chance that they won’t be told why they don’t have to go to school on Thursday. The same thing is true if they read accounts of the history of Thanksgiving in our nation’s newspapers. Here’s one from today’s issue
