The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Fear of a Republican Uterus

James Taranto gets very close to the core of the dynamic behind Palin Derangement Syndrome:  Why does their hatred of her burn so hot? Ask them, and they’ll most likely tell you: Because she’s a moron. But that is obviously false. . . . They say she is uneducated. What they mean is that her […]

The Dangerous Myth of Sexual Equality

“Armed with a ‘Take Back the Night’ pamphlet, we were led to believe that, as long as we avoided the hordes of date rapists, sex was an egalitarian endeavor. The key to sexual harmony, so the thinking went, was social conditioning. Men who sexually took advantage of women were considered the storm troopers of patriarchy, […]

A Song for All My Feminist Fans

Donald Douglas has been having all the fun with you ladies lately, and it’s probably time I joined in again:

‘I Feel Like I Just Found Out I’ve Been Living on the Moon’

So says a progressive feminist, in agreeing with Ace of Spades’ take on the Julian Assange rape accusations, as described in an Australian newspaper account: She says they had consensual sex but she woke up the next morning to find him having intercourse with her to which she had not consented.

What Line Did Sady Doyle Cross?

You will recall that Moore went on Keith Olbermann’s show and dismissed as “hooey” the rape accusations against WikiLeaks mogul Julian Assange. And when Sady Doyle started her Twitter campaign against Moore, my headline was, “Merry Christmas, America: Feminists […]

You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught

“One has to belong to the intelligentsia to believe things like that: no ordinary man could be such a fool.” — George Orwell, “Notes on Nationalism” “In the hands of a skillful indoctrinator, the average student not only thinks what the indoctrinator wants him to think . . . but is altogether positive that he […]

More Assange-Related Feminist Meltdown

Moe Tkacik is a female writer for the Washington City Paper who wrote an article mocking the rape charges against Julian Assange. She included the names of his accusers, Anna Ardin, 31, and Sofia Wilen, 26. The names of Assange’s accusers are not secret. The Sydney Morning Herald and umpteen jillion liberal blogs have named […]
