Murphy Brown in Combat Boots
Twenty years ago, Vice President Dan Quayle stepped on a liberal landmine by stating the obvious: The (then) extremely popular television show “Murphy Brown” was sending the wrong message to teenage girls about single motherhood.
Murphy Brown was doing quite well. She made single motherhood look glamours and easy but most single mothers and their children are likely to live in poverty and die in poverty.
Last week, presidential candidate Rick Santorum confronted another dangerous liberal myth, G.I. Jane. There is a reason this Demi Moore flick bombed at the box office and nearly ended her career. Even Hollywood fantasies must have a hint of truth. Read the rest of this entry »
Throw Mama under the Tank
Let’s be clear about one thing: Radical feminists’ groups on the left hate the military. They would like to eliminate it, but since they can’t, they are hellbent on controlling it. A major milestone toward that end was reached on Monday when a military advisory commission recommended our military end the policy that prevents women from serving in ground combat units.

Real Men Don’t Use Women for Cannon Fodder
The long awaited hour-long debate between Sen. George Allen, R-Va., and his Democrat challenger, Jim Webb, on “Meet the Press” was down right embarrassing. Both men want to be known as strong military eaders. However, when host Tim Russert pressed them on the issue of women in combat, both men were swept overboard in a sea of political correctness and grabbed for a lifeboat of feminist ideology.For the uninitiated, feminists don’t see a need for the military, but, if we must have one, they want to run it. It is difficult to climb up the chain of command without combat experience. That’s why it is necessary to perpetuate the myth that men and women are interchangeable fungibles.
