“I Should Have Read My Islamic Marriage Contract”

Islamic law deprives women of many rights, and that’s bad enough — and then in practice, marriage contracts sometimes deprive them of even more. “I Should Have Read My Islamic Marriage Contract: Why didn’t I? Why don’t a lot of Muslim women?,” by Ayesha Nasir for Slate, February 25: [...]…

Health Care Summit: Will Anyone Say the Obvious?

I’ve grown more and more cynical on “health care reform.” I’m watching the Bipartisan Health Care Summit right now. Barack Obama is speaking and talking about the intolerable horrors of our health care system. Apparently we’re not a utopia where everyone gets the care they need without having to pay for it.

Joe Klein Needs History Lesson in Progressivism

Poor Joe Klein.  He has such a thing against Glenn Beck that he can’t write a sentence about Beck that bears any resemblance to the truth.

Teach Your Children Well…or Someone Else Will

School’s not just for reading, writing and ‘rithmetic anymore, and neither is your university, so you’d better teach your children well before packing them off to campus.
In a new study, just released at a news conference at The Heritage Foundation in Washington, D.C., by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI), some disturbing new results were found [...]

Spencer: Muslims Exempt from Death Penalty in U.S.?

In Human Events this morning I discuss a troubling new manifestation of PC multiculturalism in the Noor Almaleki honor killing case in Arizona: Last October there was another in the growing number of Islamic honor killings in the United States when a Muslim in Peoria, Arizona, Faleh Almaleki, got into…
