First Ladies should be rarely seen and not often heard. First Ladies were not elected to office. Their pet projects are at our expense. If they want to go around the country as private citizens and help people, I don’t any problem with that. But please stop them from acting

It’s my guess that you have never heard of James MacGregor Burns. He was a Saul Alinsky who had a longer career. It’s the guys behind the scenes that are most troubling to our Republic. They work at dismantling the foundation stones of what made America the envy of the

Teaching children to add, subtract, multiply, and divide is not difficult. It’s not that every child gets it quickly, but if it’s drilled until learned, no child will ever forget their addition and times tables. Many modern-day educators hate the idea of repetitive learning methods and drills. It’s no wonder

The Pacific Justice Institute reports the following: “A scientist was terminated from his job at a California State University after discovering soft tissue on a triceratops fossil, and then publishing his findings. . . . While at a dig at Hell Creek formation in Montana, the scientist, Mark Armitage, came

Pastor Tullian Tchividjian (pronounced cha-vi-jin), the grandson of famed evangelist Billy Graham and senior pastor at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, “believes that evangelical Christianity has been tarnished by its association with the religious right.” Tarnished by whom? Who is making this claim and where are they getting their

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is pushing for amnesty and immigration reform. He is putting his vast fortune behind the effort. Zuckerberg, along with Bill Gates and other high profile technologists, has stated FWD.us. They want to move the knowledge economy forward. So do I, but not at the expense of

Anti-bullying campaigns are having unintended consequences. Not only are playground and school bullies being rebuffed and put down, but bullying organizations like the ACLU are being put in their place. The ACLU is not the government. There is no reason that any organization can’t tell the ACLU to take a

Richard Dawkins, the high priest of everything evolutionary, has come out against fairytales. “Even fairytales, the ones we all love, about witches and wizards or princes turning into frogs. There’s a very interesting reason why a prince could not turn into a frog. It’s statistically too improbable.” This is the

John Kerry said the following in a speech he gave at a graduation ceremony at Boston College: “If the US does not act and if it turns out that the critics and naysayers and the members of the Flat Earth Society — if it turns out they’re wrong, then we

No one doubts that the climate changes. If it didn’t change, we wouldn’t have the Weather Channel. Global cooling was all the rage just a few decades ago. When that didn’t pan out for the Globalists, Global Warming was invented. But not every change in climate resulted in warming. So

Women’s and Gender Studies have been a big deal on college campuses for decades. Queer studies have been added, thus making women who major in these fields unemployable. Women who major in these fields would be sending up a red flag to any employer (except a college or university). They

Oprah Winfrey is going to do a reality show on Michael Sam. It seems that Oprah is more interested in sexual perversion than helping her fellow blacks in the areas of education and jobs. Oprah is a billionaire. By some estimates, she’s the richest African American woman in the world.

Several years ago I was in a meeting with a group of prominent leaders in the fields of education and media. The discussion came around to public schools. I pointed out how public schools will only get worse and those who are trying to fix the problems will only be

Our growing godless culture is become more consistent with itself. This is inevitable. Over time, as people embrace a particular worldview, they throw off the older worldview and embrace the features of the new worldview, no matter how devastatingly destructive. The goal is human autonomy at any price. An article

Bight a Pop Tart so that it looks like a gun and you’ll be expelled. Read a Bible during free reading time, and it will be treated like Lady Chatterly’s Lover. Officials at Broward County Public Schools went along with a teacher who told fifth grader Giovanni Rubeo that he

Rocky Mountain High School in Fort Collins, Colorado, says the Pledge of Allegiance once each week on Monday. “Last Monday, the student body recited the pledge in Arabic replacing ‘under God’ with ‘under Allah.’” One Nation Under Allah! Let that sink in. How is this any different from pledging allegiance to

It’s no wonder that American politics is a mess. Our schools have done a great job keeping the majority of people politically stupid. It’s not for a lack of intelligence. There are a lot of very bright people who do not know much about how our system of government operates,

The courts have gone crazy. Judges, who are not stupid people, are creating havoc with the law. This is the latest from a judge: “Ordinary tools, such as pliers, screwdrivers and wrenches, are ‘weapons’ and so a Chicago school was correct to punish a teacher who brought them to class
