Jef Costello

2,790 words

Every year, near the end of December, I establish plans for the coming year. The centerpiece of these plans is ten resolutions – no more, and no less. I’ve had a lot of practice at this, and I’ve discovered that more than ten major resolutions is usually too ambitious, whereas fewer than ten is not ambitious enough. Read more …

The Old Order vs. the New Right

Matt Parrott

Alan Beiler, Black Amish Fugitive 920 words

By a quirk of fate, a Black toddler ended up being raised in an Amish community in Lancaster County. A couple decades later, he’s a fugitive leading the cops on high-speed chases, a thorn of deviance in the side of the Amish community’s pathetic Amish Mafia underbelly. Read more …

US Senator Brian Schatz (D.-Hawaii)

US Senator Brian Schatz (D.-Hawaii)

The latest, and at age 40 youngest, US Senator is Hawaiian Democrat Brian Emanuel Schatz. He obtained his lofty post not by election but by appointment. As an incumbent, he will enjoy a built-in advantage when he campaigns for election in late 2014, which he intends to do.

The Relevance of Philosophy to Political Change

Greg Johnson

3,523 words

The title of this essay is somewhat misleading, since I am going to argue that philosophy is relevant to all human endeavors, not just politics.[1] Philosophy is not just metapolitical, but meta-everything.[2] But I know you are interested in political change, so that was my hook to get you reading. Furthermore, I will argue that philosophy is more than just relevant to life, but of paramount importance.

You’re supposed to go to college. Learn what to do, what to say, what to think, how to feel. Someone gives you a good grade, pats you on the back and tells you that you’re a “critical thinker.” Read more …

Conservatism is Unrealistic

The Republican Party is useless as a political force. The key battle was not the presidential election of 2012 but the passage of Barack Obama’s health care plan. All of the disparate factions of the American Right joined together to oppose “Obamacare,” and they failed, miserably. Read more …

Behind Trouble with Father

Andrew Hamilton

Stu Erwin and wife June Collyer in “Trouble with Father”

2,839 words

An online blogger and CC commenter recently pointed out that everything is a “goddamned cold fish to the face.” As often as possible, I like to discover where that comes from.

Recently I experienced the cold fish to the face phenomenon while watching an old episode of Trouble with Father (ABC, 1950–1955), a half-hour TV comedy series starring Stu Erwin and his real-life wife June Collyer. (The show is known under several different names, including The Stu Erwin Show.) Read more …

Christmas Special
Merry Christmas, Infidels!

German translation here

It was about twenty years ago when I first noticed that the greeting “Merry Christmas” was being replaced by the bland, neutral “Season’s Greetings” and “Happy Holidays.”

El Nacionalismo Blanco Explícito

Greg Johnson

English original here

El nacionalismo blanco es una idea monstruosa e inmoral en la que la raza blanca, una subespecie biológica única se encuentre a largo plazo en peligro de extinción (debido a la pérdida de su hábitat natural y la competencia de otras subespecies más resistentes invasoras) y se merece las mismas protecciones que las percinas tanasi, búhos manchados y los cóndores de California.
