• Have You Thought About These Counterarguments to Allowing Women in Combat?

  February 22, 2013 at 9:24pm

  In reply to dosdelgados.

  Good point – America is driving a steamroller to equate things (like male and female) that are inherently different. One consequence – the underachieving, slow-to-mature young American male. He’s not sure what his role is, except to have fun and let women take care of him and any offspring he produces. The drive for this false “equality” hurts women.

• Karl Rove Super PAC Goes After Lib Actress With Brutal Attack Ad

  February 7, 2013 at 12:11pm

  Bad timing by the PAC – now that they’ve prematurely scared off Ashley Judd by demonstrating how vulnerable she is, they’ve cleared the way for a more serious candidate to oppose McConnell. Doesn’t American Crossroads realize they wanted Judd in the Democratic primary to pull the entire field to the left, and if possible win that primary? Oh, well.

• Recovery? Savings Rates Fall to Their Lowest Point in 2012

  October 30, 2012 at 6:57pm

  The article misses a big factor -savings interest rates are so low that money is being transferred from “savings’” to “investments” in bonds, preferred stocks, etc. So I don’t think “savings rate” is always a sound number. This isn’t to say people aren’t hurting, or spending their savings, but it does mean microscopic interest rates are a large factor in “people wiping out their savings.”
  But what do I know, I have never heard of a “Savings print” before.

• Father of Fallen Marine Angry Over President Obama’s ‘Disrespectful’ Condolence Letter: ‘Where Is the Honor?’

  October 9, 2012 at 6:33pm

  I’m no Obama fan, but I suspect a lot of Presidents have sent out a lot of form letters to fallen soldier’s families. 4000 have died in Afghanistan alone, but that pales compared to WWII and Vietnam. One can hardly write personally to them all. Each family grieves the terrible loss, but the criticism rings hollow and it makes conservatives look like they are grasping at straws to find fault with Obama when there are plenty of substantive things to analyze and critique that might persuade the undecideds of the downside of our current President.

• GOP Rep, Religious Leaders Accuse Obama Admin. of Religious ‘Hypocrisy’ Over Controversial ‘Piss Christ’ Photograph

  September 21, 2012 at 11:02pm

  A recent Blaze article explained why the hypocrisy – progressives are about acknowledging and creating victims. The unifying theme in public liberals universities is to teach about oppressed classes – most everyone except white male heterosexuals. The narrative goes like this: The Muslims are victims of Western imperialism so their rage is understandable. Christians are not a victim class, so they deserve no empathy.
  Occupy Wall Street was about speaking up for victims of Wall Street, the 99% victims of the 1%. It fell apart as it became simply “Occupy”, because all the victim narrative advocates gathered to it like filings to a magnet, and no unifying idea could cohere. That and the fact that strong leaders resemble oppressors (in their minds), and so no strong leaders emerged to lead the movement. .
  A major problem is that a victim identity saps ambition and feeds anger – a recipe for getting stuck in life. Progressives want as many as possible to take on a victim identity – let’s hope not many more fall for it, and that some who have see the light.

• Al Roker Has Been Acting a Little Odd on ‘Today’ — Have You Seen the Latest Clips of Him?

  August 22, 2012 at 9:38am

  Yet another non-story to fill up the inter-net’s insatiable desire for “news”.
  Nothing to see here, keep moving along.

• ‘Not Hate-Filled Bigots’: National Organization for Marriage Launches ‘Chick-fil-A Wednesdays’ to Support Traditional Marriage

  August 16, 2012 at 9:29am

  While on vacation yesterday – Wednesday – in northern Kentucky, we went to a Chick-fil-A at 1;15 pm. It was so packed we went on an errand for twenty minutes, and came back to stand in a line that moved very quickly. We don;t have a Chick-fil-A in our home area, so we want to visit one anytime we travel near one. I don’t know if the crowd yesterday was due to the “buycott” or the norm but I can tell you the restaurant we visited was a class act.

• So Here Are the 7 Pictures From the Chick-fil-A ‘Kiss-In’ Protest That You May or May Not Want to See

  August 3, 2012 at 11:53pm

  Christians, when you see Jesus being insulted, remember I Peter 2:23 “who,when He was reviled (insulted, verbally abused), did not revile in return, when He suffered He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously…” We can leave the verbal abuser in the hands of God, knowing that venom will not win. It’s a great opportunity to identify with Jesus, always a cause for joy and quiet confidence.

• Professor: These Are the Top 10 Zombie Scenes in the Bible

  July 7, 2012 at 6:53pm

  The “professor’s” logic, and therefore this entire story, is WEAK. Sorry I bit on it.

• Group Blasts Liberty University as ‘Extremist, Homophobic & Intellectually Narrow’

  March 15, 2012 at 9:37am

  I live in New England and would welcome Liberty University’s presence. I know people who mourn the loss of Moody’s legacy at Mt Hermon. To say modern day Mt. Hermon was true to Moody’s legacy is revisionist history of the worst sort. Liberty would be much more akin to Moody.
  Progressives celebrate diversity except for diversity of thought.
