Assimilation

Posted on March 30, 2007March 30, 2007 by marc

I’ve written about the need for immigrants from other cultures to assimilate when they come to the United States but as a conclusion to my last couple of posts I felt like I wanted to bang that drum again. It’s been said that the writing on Black Shards is anti-Mexican, anti-immigrant, and anti-Muslim and from…

Inside Threats

Posted on March 29, 2007March 30, 2007 by marc

One of the problems with W’s War in Iraq (Wii – coincidence?) is that it has taken America’s eye almost completely off the ball, which is the global struggle against Islam. The enemy – and they are a real enemy, in case anyone’s not convinced yet – is not just in Iraq. Or even in…

Drunk + Illegal = Murder

Posted on March 28, 2007March 29, 2007 by marc

Check out the Texas Rainmaker’s post on the recent drunk driving crash in North Houston that killed two women. Turns out the driver was an illegal alien who had 3 prior DUI convictions. TTR says: Is anyone in immigration and law enforcement awake anymore? Consider the deaths of these three innocent people yet another tragic…

It’s a Only a Book…

Posted on March 27, 2007March 30, 2007 by marc

…and you know the one that I’m talking about. It is, after all, the only article on the planet made of little bits of wood pulp, horse hooves, and black drops of dye (die) whose supernatural synergies grant the reader the inalienable right – nay, the duty – to kill anyone who thinks differently than…

Death Penalty Revisited

Posted on March 25, 2007March 25, 2007 by marc

The horrific murder of a Texas co-ed at the hands of an obsessed ex-boyfriend and a report of an even more sickening fate suffered by an innocent 6 year-old boy have been lodged in my psyche as if the stories were shards of glass blasted into my mind’s eye. I’ve read a lot lately about…

Liberalism = Nihlism

Posted on March 22, 2007March 22, 2007 by marc

At the TownHall, Michael Medved asks “What constitutes the essence of modern liberalism?“. The rhetoric of today’s left shows that they see society divided between the privileged and the powerless, the favored and the unfortunate, victors and victims. Liberals feel an irresistible instinct to take sides with the less fortunate. While the right wants to…

Mandatory Vaccinations

Posted on March 14, 2007March 14, 2007 by marc

Yesterday Texas Governor Rick Perry issued an executive order that mandates a new 3-step vaccination for pre-teen girls. One would assume that there is a medical crisis either in play or in the making for Perry to do an end-run around public debate in the Texas legislature, right? So what is it that’s such a…

Teachers and Pay

Posted on March 14, 2007March 14, 2007 by marc

Ask virtually any teacher whether they are paid enough for the work they do and you’ll get the same answer. “No!” Is that true? Teachers are represented by unions, organizations that exist for the purpose of raising wages and improving working conditions. So why do teachers feel they are getting short-changed? On the surface of…

Jihad by Birthrate

Posted on March 11, 2007March 11, 2007 by marc

Abdul Raheem Green says that one way to spread the “good news” of Islam to western democracies is to out-breed us (found at JihadWatch.org): “The birth rate in the Western countries is going down. People are more interested in their careers . . . they don’t want to have babies,” Sheik Green says in one…

Adoption and Biology

Posted on March 10, 2007March 11, 2007 by marc

Alan Sears at TownHall.com says that some of Utah’s courts are “often more preoccupied with political correctness than parental rights” by favoring biologically unrelated persons. Indeed, a great injustice was nearly committed in this case: …the lower court judges, who assigned a Commissioners and a guardian ad litem to represent the child’s interests and evaluate…
