Fifteen hundred socialists convened in suburban Chicago, the murder capital of the world, at the International Socialist Organization’s annual conference. They shouted the usual socialist slogans about free this and free that. They’re already getting most things free — education, healthcare, food stamps, housing subsidies. But they want more. These

There’s a funny throw-away line in the film Moneyball (2011), based on the book Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game (2003). It’s the story of how the Oakland Athletics, with its general manager Billy Beane, put together a game-winning baseball roster after losing three of their best players.

President Obama has decreed that he is going to tax people who make over $250,000 at a higher rate than people making less, and millions of people are OK with it. How did we get to the place when elected officials can tax American citizens at disproportionate rates to pay

Should a black person vote for a black person because he’s black? Should an Italian get your vote because you’re Italian? Should a wounded war vet get your vote because of his wounds and “hero”. ((I believe the word “hero” is overused. Even sport stars are described as heroes.)) List

Rep. Andre Carson, a Democrat from Indiana, is a Muslim. He wants government (public) schools to follow Islamic teachings and methods: “America will never tap into educational innovation and ingenuity without looking at the model that we have in our madrassas, in our schools, where innovation is encouraged, where the

Liberals continue to disparage the greatness of America while taking advantage of everything that is great about America. In many cases liberals work overtime to overturn what is great about America and support political candidates who propose laws that are designed to unravel the very principles that made the United

A report on terrorism in the United States has been published by the Department of Homeland Security. The authors of the report are Gary LaFree, professor of criminology at the University of Maryland, and Bianca Bersani, assistant professor of sociology at the University of Massachusetts-Boston.

Where’s the ACLU and Americans United for Separation of Church and State when Liberal Democrats politic in Churches? If the wife of a conservative candidate went into churches to ask the people to vote for her husband, groups like the ACLU and Americans United would be sending threatening letters that

The after effects of the Robert’s decision on Obamacare got my blood boiling as I read blog posts and comments about the decision. I fully agree that “God is sovereign” and “God is in control,” but that does not absolve us of the responsibility to act. God designed us to

Do you remember when the late Jerry Falwell was excoriated in the press for claiming that the 9-11 attacks were the result of God’s judgment? Here’s what he said in an on-air conversation with CBN host Pat Robertson: “And, I know that I’ll hear from them for this. But throwing

Michael Musto is a longtime columnist for Village Voice. He’s also a homosexual. Like so many out-and-proud homosexuals, he has a smiling public face but a dark private face.

About 1000 delegates at the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials were having lunch when they heard a very odd request. “It’s very important that you use your utensils as soon as possible,” board member Raquel Regalado told the delegates at the group’s annual conference. It seems their utensils

I’ve been thinking a lot about race lately. There’s no way to escape the topic since nearly everybody and his brother are accusing conservatives of being racists. Eric Holder said that Americans are cowards when it comes to race. Maybe we are. No one likes to be called a racist.

Minister, theologian, speaker, and author John Piper “came out against gay marriage during a sermon Sunday but did not explicitly urge members of his Minneapolis church to vote for the amendment.

Fox News reports that “The Un-Fair Campaign addresses what it calls ‘white privilege’ with billboards, posters and online videos assigning guilt to people with taglines like, ‘Is white skin really fair skin?’ and ‘I am a white man. That’s unfair.’ The ads are plastered across a city where 90 percent

Publicly, most of Hollywood is pro-‘gay.’ Privately, Hollywooders are just as anti-homosexual as the general population. It’s just that they have to work in an industry that has a disproportionate number of homosexuals. Their jobs depend on what has been described as the ‘gay mafia.’ The latest example of pro-‘gay’

I love science. I always have. I always will. Science is a window into God’s creation. The more we learn about the created order, the more we understood that none of what we see is here by accident. William Cowper (1731–1800) was right when he wrote that “God moves in
