Rick Santorum for Vice President: Stranger Things Have Happened
G. Terry Madonna & Michael L. Young
Sunday, 26 June 2011
Lancaster, PA, USA. It’s an old political proverb: no one runs for vice president except everyone running for president. Okay, we made up that last part.

The actual adage is shorter: no one runs for vice president. But that is patent nonsense. Although they’ll deny it to the bitter end, presidential candidates often end up hoping their party’s nominee will pick them to run as vice president.


Women in Love
Lisa Jain Thompson
Sunday, 26 June 2011
Fairfax, VA, USA. One could say that a transsexual’s person is her whole being, a thing apart for a transgender. [N1] Therein the difference between the two.

Political gender activists would have you not read this. If they could, they would forbid me to write the preceding paragraph. After all and at the very worst, men and women born transsexual are only God’s second mistake.

Lesbian Fears vs Trans Rights: An Honest Expository
Maureen Hennessey
Tuesday, 21 June 2011
Washington, DC, USA. First of all, I was asked to express these thoughts on behalf of a group of Lesbian friends and associates. Some of them belong to an organisation of "quiet activists," women of some professional prominence who use their networks of friends and associates to lobby for or to influence policy.

While some of these concerns I do share, I do not share all of them.

Blogger Be Not Proud: There Are No Pants
Lisa Jain Thompson
Sunday, 19 June 2011
Fairfax, VA, USA. This just in: the social media is not an island. Every post is a piece of the continent, a part of the main we call society.

The right to privacy does not exist once words are posted to the internet. No one can hide from those who understand the workings of the world. “Private” photos might as well be distributed directly to everyone on the web.

Candidate Gaffe: Does It Matter?
G. Terry Madonna & Michael L. Young
Sunday, 19 June 2011
Lancaster, PA, USA. According to an old cliché, there are no dumb questions. But we’re asking one that might seem dumb — one that challenges some cherished assumptions about politics, presidents, and elections.

The question is this: What matters in choosing among presidential candidates? Does it matter if someone is ignorant of U.S. history, prone to eccentric views, belongs to an unfamiliar religion, doesn’t always speak correctly, gets confused about facts, or is given

No Slaving Behind the Cooker Whilst Someone Else Gets the Ride!
Maggie Fox
Wednesday, 01 June 2011
Machester, UK. If you are woman you will laugh and understand the title; if you are a man — probably not! It also neatly summarizes the problem women born transsexual face. Human beings are categorized male or female at birth and UK Law only recog...

Lisa Jain Thompson
Sunday, 22 May 2011
Fairfax, VA, USA.That Bobby Dylan is turning 70 this month astonishes me. Depresses me. Reminds me I wrote my first column about him over the summer in 1965 when I was just 17 and Dylan was barely electric. The teacher who nominally moderated the hi...

G. Terry Madonna & Michael L. Young
Sunday, 15 May 2011
Lancaster, PA, USA. It will always be remembered as the day Americans learned that archfiend, terrorist-in-chief, Osama bin Laden was dead. Millions rejoiced,rightly, at the death of the very embodiment of 21st century evil. But bad as Osama was, an...

How to Run for President (and still have been born in Pennsylvania)
G. Terry Madonna & Michael L. Young
Monday, 02 May 2011
Lancaster, PA, USA. It’s been a mystery worthy of Sherlock Holmes. How does Pennsylvania do it? How does a state that has long been a political colossus in national elections and hugely important in presidential politics fail so dismally, elec...

Fairfax, VA, USA. A columnist must be mentally nimble, a lover of naked rugby, agile without constraint. Editors must be viewed as a necessary evil but one that in an ideal world would be seldom needed. We are, after all and unlike Shakespeare, all ...

Friday, 29 April 2011
Pasadena, CA, USA. More than 30 years after they left Earth, NASA's twin Voyager probes are now at the edge of the solar system. Not only that, they're still working. And with each passing day they are beaming back a message that, to scientists, is b...

Manchester, UK. For far too long now a small but vociferous lobby group of transgender queer advocates have held sway in the United Kingdom. Readers, including those in the US, may ask so what? It is essential to know their basic deception: gender i...

The Homosexual Agenda

Feminist Dilemma: Separating Women From Trannys
Rev. Cathryn Platine
Saturday, 23 April 2011
Palenville, NY, USA. As the transgender movement pushes itself more and more on the public this question has become more and more important to feminist women: How can you tell trans people from women, where do you set the bar? This has proved out as ...
American Political Parties in Crisis
Sharon Gaughan
Sunday, 17 April 2011
Fairfax, VA, USA. The essence of America and what we can bring to the world lies before us, but you wouldn’t know it from the behavior of Democrats and Republicans. The two great engines of our political will ignore the public interest, burnish the...
