Secrets

April 1, 2006

I can’t believe I’ve gotten away with this masquerade for so many years! I am not La Shawn Barber. There is no La Shawn Barber. It’s all an elaborate ruse, something I cooked up on a hot August afternoon in 2002. After reading so many cookie-cutter opinion columns, I thought my brain would rot. So [...]

Voting Rights Act of 1965

March 31, 2006

Ignorance breeds contempt. I was stunned into eye-rolling disbelief and embarrassed silence the first time I heard a rumor about the Voting Rights Act of 1965. When I began writing columns a few years ago, I’d get e-mails from black people concerned about their voting rights. Some thought that when the Act expired, blacks would [...]

Linking Policy

March 30, 2006

Blogroll — As you can see, my blogroll is very long. At this point, I’m more interested in trimming it than adding to it. On occasion, I surf through the roll, deleting blogs that haven’t been updated in the past month and replacing them with new ones. As I’m very busy these days, I don’t [...]

Illegal Ingrates

March 29, 2006

Update II: Illegal Immigration From A Biblical Point of View One more thing: no matter what you think of Rush Limbaugh, you need to listen to him on this immigration issue. He always, always makes me feel better when I’m this angry. He might do the same for you. Listen online here. Update (3/30): Michelle [...]

Black Marriage

March 28, 2006

[Note: Read this story about black couples renewing their vows.] I’m no expert on marriage (its benefits or detriments) or children or women or black people; my impressions are based on almost four decades of interaction with and observation of marriage and children and women and black people. This post addresses the well-linked article, Marriage [...]

Marriage from All Angles

March 27, 2006

I have so much to say about this article and this one. Later… Unrelated Update: I’ve been so slack. I kept forgetting to announce the MilBlog Conference 2006, which is scheduled for April 22, 2006, in Washington D.C., at the AED Conference Center (see this post for details). I was invited to live-blog. Check out [...]

Fatherless Boys, Rathergate, and Davids

March 24, 2006

Update II (3/27): From the Townhall.com review of An Army of Davids: Reynolds provides a wide range of examples how new technologies empower individuals, from helping amateur musicians distribute their online music to the masses without record companies to allowing private citizens to respond to terrorist attacks and disasters better and more efficiently than the [...]

Rally for Abdul Rahman at Afghan Embassy

March 23, 2006

Update IV (3/27): If you’ve never visited IMAO, you must stop by. Frank J. and his contributors are hilarious. (And their podcast provides much-needed comic relief, too.) Frank lightens the mood with this funny and spot-on “editorial” about Christianity. Update (3/26) III: On this Lord’s day, Abdul Rahman’s life is spared. A giant step toward [...]

There Goes The Neighborhood II

March 22, 2006

People work hard, save money, make sacrifices, and buy houses (for a premium) in safe, clean neighborhoods, and a gaggle of liberal lawyers ask a judge to dictate social policy and ship in people who didn’t do those things, people dependent on the government. “Good schools” is one of the reasons cited. Does anybody want [...]

Pardons for Segregation Law Violators?

March 21, 2006

I’ve thought about writing articles (and maybe a book) in defense of the Southern Strategy, and I’m similarly inclined to write an op-ed opposing the idea of pardoning people who violated segregation laws (also see this story) back in the day. Maybe this is why I get hate mail. After all, such ideas are “dangerous.” [...]

Googlezon?

March 20, 2006

Watch this cool video about the future of the Internet to 2015. The speculations are pretty close to the mark and entirely probable. The video references Reason Magazine, which sent subscribers an issue with a satellite image of their houses/apartment buildings (with the address listed) on the cover. I was a subscriber at the time [...]

Former Muslim Asked to Deny Christ or Die

March 20, 2006

Update II: Mark Tapscott: It is true that the Church has grown most intensely from ground watered with the blood of martyrs, especially during the Roman persecutions and during the Reformation, as detailed in John Foxe’s classic “Book of Martyrs.” Bloggers like Malkin and Barber have been all over this story, but President Bush said [...]

State of the News Media 2006

March 17, 2006

It’s Friday! And I’m too busy to blog. On this blog, that is. Well, I guess I’m not that busy because I’m blogging. Hmmm… So I’m going to let you blog. Here’s a topic: State of the News Media 2006. Since 2004, the journalists at the Project for Excellence in Journalism have released an annual [...]
