Let’s be brutally blunt: for the overwhelming majority of this generation’s Jews, Judaism is pathetic — and that’s putting it mildly. It’s been made as appetizing as four-month old matzah. Except unleavened crackers don’t leave a bitter aftertaste, nor, for that matter, a hangover.
The Mind of America
It is often said the people of America are her heart and soul. It’s important to understand that they are also her mind.
The mind of America is an unconscious engine of fantastic power and perception. Its nerve endings reach through every cash register and cell phone. Its dreams swell into factories and skyscrapers, burn themselves into circuit boards, and flow across bookshelves.
Human Events
HUMAN EVENTS is the news source President Reagan called his “favorite newspaper” and we still hold high the Reaganesque principles of free enterprise, limited government and, above all, a staunch, unwavering defense of American freedom.
Obama & Co.: Never Met A Tax They Didn’t Love
Director David Zucker of “Airplane” fame and most recently “Call Me Senator” addresses our timeless little problem with the Federal Government and its thing about bleeding American citizens dry.
Lifetime cure for Lefties
Scientists have given mankind many blessings, but the discovery of the gene for Left-wing behaviour must be foremost among them. For now there is a diagnosis, there can be a cure. Just think of it – a quick screening of the unborn infant, a mild course of gene therapy, and hey presto! The disease can be eradicated within a generation.
Perhaps we are getting a little ahead of ourselves. But even if science falls short of an outright cure, it should still be possible to ameliorate the symptoms. The gene does not automatically make the carrier a Lefty; rather, it triggers the adolescent brain’s reward mechanism in the presence of novel experiences and viewpoints. The treatment is simple: lock teenage sufferers in a drab room, furnished with the works of Hayek and Friedman. True, their social skills will be somewhat stunted. But the benefits will last a lifetime.
