Then and Now

Getting my parents and grandparents to talk about their experiences during the Great Depression and World War II was always difficult. They lived in the pre-Dr. Phil generation before people went public with their deepest thoughts. I have been thinking how they might have responded to the current panic caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. I suspect their reactions would come in ways far different…

Schlafly Marriage Demeaned, as ‘Mrs. America’ Glorifies Feminist One

Rather than a battle of the sexes, the latest Mrs. America episode was a battle of the marriages that crowned the radical feminists’ version superior.

NYT Front-Page 'News': 'Science Speaks (But President Rarely Listens)'

The New York Times used the coronavirus pandemic as an excuse to unleash hostile anti-Trump opinion on its front page Wednesday in a “news analysis” by Lisa Friedman and Brad Plumer that played the tired trope of Trump vs science: “Science Speaks (But President Rarely Listens).” There was an awful lot about "climate change" in this story ostensibly about Trump's response to the coronavirus…
