Fascism and a FuneralKaren DeCoster | 2009.05.27 What we are seeing from the schemers in Washington is the rollout of a soft fascism ... for which freedom, choice, and capitalism will pay a dear price.

Is this the future college students dream of?Lil Tuttle | 2009.01.19 It’s easy to imagine a gentle breeze cooling a sun-drenched sidewalk as people hurry by the outdoor café. Espresso and Coca-Cola clutter an umbrella-covered table where a group of guys, along with the busboy, argue good-naturedly about politics and what needs to be done to make the world right. It’s a leisurely exchange. They have nothing better to do. What Girls Want: An Edward Cullen to Love ThemMiriam Grossman, MD | 2008.12.08 | Townhall.com American girls have a new heartthrob: a tall, gorgeous vampire who is in the eleventh grade. He thirsts for the blood of Bella, his human girlfriend, but learns to “just say no.” What is it about Edward Cullen, the male protagonist of the blockbuster Twilight series, that sends girls from Atlanta to Anchorage swooning? I asked three teen girls I know. Nava is 14. “He’s cute, and he’s really nice to Bella.” Kayla is 16. “He’s caring, and genuine. He expresses his love, and risks his life to protect her. And he’s handsome.” Tanya is 19. “Edward loves Bella and wants to be with her forever, so he controls himself. The self-discipline is very hard on him, but seeing her hurt would be even worse.” Not bad, huh? Now if only the professionals running our country’s sex education could figure that out. Because that’s what the Twilight craze is about: a guy who adores his girl so much, he’ll do anything to protect her. A guy who won’t allow his girl to get hurt, even if it means saying “no” to himself. That’s what girls want. Guys Speak Out On ChivalryAshley Crouch | 2008.12.03 Who says guys can’t communicate? A recent survey I took suggests that guys are eager to offer their opinions, if we ladies will only listen. Unfortunately, when the subject is the near-extinct idea of “chivalry,” many women are quick to turn a blind eye and a deaf ear. Yet so many of us women spend our days lamenting broken relationships and marriages and wondering, Where have all the good guys gone?
