Psychology is a nefarious field of study. When I was in college, my Psych 150 class was an introduction into B.F. Skinner’s behaviorism. We worked with rats. Skinner believed that people, like animals, could be trained with incentives and disincentives. The rats were given water for just one hour and

As Danny Devito’s character, Vincent Benedict, in Twins (1988) so aptly put it, “Money talks and bull s–t walks.” Trump’s talking with his money. You can’t get any better than that. This latest story is about Donald Trump offering President Obama $50 million for his birth records and $5 million

You’ve got to watch this video. It is an open and shut case of “selective amnesia” by President Obama, Hillary Clinton, the Democrats, and the media. Trey Gowdy III has served as the U.S. Representative for South Carolina’s 4th congressional district since 2011. If the Republicans had more people like

One day, a customer recognized a professional basketball player in a Wendy’s fast-food uniform making French fries. “The customer was shocked and immediately called into a local sports talk radio show to say how sad it was to see a formerly great NBA player down on his luck, forced to

President Obama has done more damage to the Constitution than any president in history. It’s not that other presidents haven’t tried to subvert the Constitution. In fact, a case could be made that nearly every president has in some way violated his oath of office. But Obama’s presidency is different.

Once again Barack Obama is quoting the Bible when it suits his purposes. Like so many times when people quote the Bible in support of some belief, they often quote it out of context, quote it incorrectly, or commit a category error, that is, applying a text of Scripture to

The Bible is a convenient prop for liberals. They’ll quote it when they can find something in it what they can twist to support one of their pet projects. The latest is President Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper initiative. “After months of conversation with a wide range of people, we’ve pulled

What was the trigger that led Vladimir Putin think he could get away with what President Obama says is a “clear violation” of Ukraine’s sovereignty even after a 90-minute phone call in which “Obama . . . called Russia’s actions a ‘violation of international law’ and said they will lead

We were all Millennials once. That is, we were all in a particular age group, and we had beliefs about all kinds of things. But what did we really know? We knew we didn’t want to fight in a foreign war like Vietnam. But other than that, most of what

My wife and I have been watching the series “Island at War” on Netflix. “[It’s] a British television series that tells the story of the German Occupation of the Channel Islands.” British forces had left the Islands but Germany did not know that the islands had been demilitarized. The islands

President Obama is remaking America in his own image, and that image is a homosexual one. He’s got a lot of help from the media, the entertainment industry, and the courts. He purposely sent “a delegation of prominent gay athletes, including the tennis champion Billie Jean King, to represent the

For centuries the United States has been the envy of the world. That’s why we have an immigration problem. People from other nations want to be part of this grand experiment. This was mostly true in the 19th and 20th century when we didn’t have a burgeoning welfare system. Dictators

Getting back to the Constitution is no longer an option for most politicians. They use it as a prop. Sure, they take an oath before God to uphold it and vote and terms of its limitations, but for them, God is a myth. Sheila Jackson Lee is the worst offender,

“Thanks to persistent unemployment and low availability of low-skill jobs,” Ben Shapiro writes, “Shenandoah Family Farms’ ice cream plant in Hagerstown, Maryland has received over 1,600 applicants for a grand total of 36 jobs.” How is it possible that with nearly a trillion (fake) dollars (it may be more) pumped

You may not have seen the article about Communist Cuba leader Raul Castro and the comment he made about entrepreneurship. Cuba is so bad off economically that the pure Marxist ideological dystopia is a test case for why Communism is inherently self-destructive for those it claims to help but beneficial

Conservatives are upset that when President Obama read the Gettysburg Address for Ken Burns he did not include the phrase “under God.” Actually, I’m glad Mr. Burns had President Obama read the original written address and not a later edited version. More about this in a moment. God was not

Have you noticed that the media, including sites like Breitbart, are reporting on Rob Ford, the crack-smoking, drunken Mayor of Toronto? For readers who happen on this story who may not be up on their geography, Toronto is in Canada. Why all the attention in the media? The first reports

A plaque on Northeastern Illinois University’s Frank Lloyd Wright building reads “This building is dedicated to public service honoring the memory of Abraham Lincoln — Democrat.” I first saw this story on Facebook. It’s now getting wider attention. The controversy is over identifying Lincoln as a “Democrat.” In reality, he
