RU-486 is poison
Holly Patterson ingested the poison on a Saturday. The eighteen year old girl had been perfectly healthy up to that moment. Before the day was through, she began experiencing cramping and constipation. Within a week, she was dead from septic shock.
The amazing invention that feeds the poor
In Washington D.C., liberals have passed a law targeting Wal-Mart, who plans on building six stores there. D.C. liberals want to force Wal-Mart to pay a much higher minimum wage to their employees than other stores must pay. Wal-Mart says if the mayor signs the ordinance into law, they will nix building three of these stores …
Join me for dinner Saturday night
I am a big fan of Iowans for L.I.F.E. You’re going to hate them if you’re a fan of human abortion. But if you believe, as I do, that you and I became a human being at the instant of conception, you’re going to love their work. And you will love their banquet, which is this Saturday night …
Be not indifferent
The death last week of crusty White House reporter, Helen Thomas, prompted me to rerun my post from three years ago that featured the anti Semitic remark that got her fired. She deserved being fired, but it should have occurred several years earlier with a similar remark.
The end of the world

Who do you like better: the white guy or the black guy?

He held down part time jobs while in school to save toward college. The savings helped him enroll in the local community college. Two years later, he advanced to a local university and earned a Bachelor’s Degree …
A national dialogue on race
Are we capable of truly having an honest dialogue discussion on race? I wish we could, but, I have my doubts. We don’t talk the same language. We can’t hear each other talk. We see the world through a different prism. When I say “we,” I’m talking in the context of liberal/conservative world views as much as black/white differences. Nonetheless, let us try to begin a constructive conversation. The upside is worth it …
Another ginned up race narrative
The Zimmerman case should NEVER have been brought to trial and was only done so when certain interest groups and certain political interests ginned up the race card, including the President …
The viability myth
I have never met a single, viable person in my life. Another word for viable is survivable. It’s a word worth dwelling on. Some advocates of human abortion maintain that the preborn are not entitled to human rights until they are viable, which they reach at about their 23rd week of human life in their mother’s womb.
