The Chaste Man’s Casting Couch

  The “casting couch” is code for men in positions of authority in Hollywood and on Broadway using their power to extract sex from aspiring actresses in exchange for acting roles. Call it rape with a bow on it. Psychobabblers tell us rape is about power, not sex. Bullocks....

Web of Lies

  The preposterous idea that someone too senile to be a candidate is none-the-less fit to serve as president (have your 25th Amendment and eat it too) is a building block in the Democratic Party’s new Lego–like creation—an American electoral system engineered to fit their...

Scarecrow and Tin Man

  After the successful overturn of the national abortion mandate known as Roe v. Wade, the next battle for prolifers is “winning hearts and minds.” The problem is when it comes to hearts and minds someone else got there first.  Or something. The unhinged behavior coming from...
