…ted ally Israel by demanding it stop building settlements without requiring the Palestinians to acknowledge Israel’s right to exist. The speech was also very Wilsonian. I could imagine the words of Woodrow Wilson pitching the League of Nations to the United States Congress after the end of World War One. The League of Nations . . . “is a definite guaranty of peace. It is a definite guaranty by word against aggression. It is a definite guaranty a…

…tic capitalism.” Equal opportunity means the opportunity to compete. The NFL has gone to great lengths to ensure that teams must compete equally. The draft and the salary cap prevent teams in large markets from dominating the league the way they do in Major League Baseball, where small market teams have become nothing more than feeders for New York and Boston. In the NFL, any well-managed team which makes the right choices in hiring and game-plan…

…publicity, suspense and sky-rocketing expectations. While many of the early Superbowls failed to live up to all the hype, more recent ones have quickened the pulse of even the most jaded sports fan. The NFL has eclipsed Major League Baseball as the National Pastime, and is a model not only for other spectator sports, but for any entertainment industry competing for the public’s leisure time. With the Hollywood box office dwindling again this year…

… seemed on the superficial level to offer continuity, it was actually an ideological reversal, back to the Liberal wing of the Republican Party. Though he lambasted his opponent Michael Dukakis, tarring him with the “Liberal” label, which Reaganism had turned into a dirty word, Bush himself was every bit a Progressive. His admitted trouble with “the vision thing” prevented him from continuing with Reagan’s unfinished work: shrinking government, e…

This is the essence of Objectivism and Individualism. Rather there is a hard core “indoctrination” of Keynesian economi…

Margaret Sanger Planned Parenthood was founded in 1921 as the American Birth Control League by Margaret Sanger. Ms. Sanger was a known progressive from that era and a firm believer in Eugenics and Race Control. Contrary to current liberal beliefs, the original birth control movement of which Margaret Sanger was a proponent had nothing to do with a women’s right to choose.

… of these circumstances, the use of the word hero is trivialized. A deeper problem is that ides of myth, legend and story hold a society’s culture together. The concept of the hero is central to these. By misapplying the hero label and refraining from using it when needed takes our culture in the wrong direction.

… permit that. But consider the following scenario… You object to the way the Federal Leviathan State is run. You gather, every other Tuesday, with others who share your values. We’ll call your fictional group the Constitution League (CL). One night, a new fellow shows up. He’s frustrated and outspoken. He complains that the time for meetings is over.
