Remember Alicia Gray?

Sure, you remember: She’s the Alabama teacher who got caught boinking a 14-year-old boy and then, through her church, released a YouTube video admitting that, hey, boinking 14-year-olds is wrong. As if being subjected to harsh sarcasm (and also sentenced to jail) weren’t punishment enough, Alicia Gray’s video attracted the attention of Liberty University law […]

Carts and Horses, Causes and Effects

Complex causation in human behavior means that social science often isn’t very scientific. Not every variable can be measured with such accuracy as, for example, annual income and years of education, and things which are not measured tend to be neglected as factors in social science. Researchers don’t usually find correlations by accident, and they […]

Feminists Lie: Why @WendyDavisTexas’s Dishonest Personal Narrative Matters

Professor William Jacobson points out that Democrats now claim it is sexist to criticize Texas gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis for her dishonesty, even though “she made her parenting a critical part of her political narrative.” Professor Glenn Reynolds adds: When women say that Wendy Davis is being treated more harshly than a man, I wonder […]

Do people really think that a stay at […]

UPDATE: Two Victims Identified in Columbia Mall Shooting Near Baltimore

So I Guess @PaulWaldman1’s Basic Message Is: ‘Vote Democrat, You Sluts!’

Before addressing Paul Waldman’s partisan nonsense, let’s first briefly discuss chlamydia. This is one of the lesser-known sexually transmitted diseases, not one of the big-name celebrity STDs like syphilis, gonorrhea, herpes and HIV. Despite its comparative obscurity, however, chlamydia is potentially devastating to women. The disease can lead to infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and pelvic inflammatory […]

On Da Tech Guy’s Radio Show

by Smitty Check out Da Tech Guy’s radio show. I’m due on in about an hour (1:15PM EST). Pete is a champ, and it’s a privilege to call him friend. What a blast that was! The liberal guest was Mike Hummell of Stop Brownback, who was articulate and pleasant and I’d debate again with pleasure, […]
