The latest column by Jan Ireland, Mother Murdered Children Never Considered Hate Crimes, is live on the Rightsided Newsletter web site:

Yet another mother is on trial for killing her children. Again in Texas a woman who gave birth to and nurtured her children for a time has become their killer.

Again we hear the protestations of wonderful mother, devoted wife, and no mother in her right mind could do such a thing. People call for helping the “victim” mother. Such calls are simply
giving the killer an out.

Attention should be on the real victims, the children, who have been the focus of hate. [MORE]

And the latest from Isaiah Z. Sterrett, Arretez Ces Enfants !, is up on site as well:

I GUESS you can’t expect much maturity from the party of Lyndon Johnson, who revealed his surgical scars to reporters, or Bill Clinton, who revealed his, well, Johnson, to half the girls between Little Rock and D.C. Still, you’d think being at war would evoke some seriousness in Democrats.

The big story for the past few days has been the unfolding drama of Richard Clarke, the only man in Washington who flip-flops more than John Kerry. [MORE]

On the Rightsided Newsletter, I’ve posted the latest column by Justin Darr, Do we have the will to win the War on Terror?

Osama Bin Laden sees the West as a soft, decadent society that is unwilling to stand up for any values it might still retain. He has no respect for our way of life, seeing us as immoral, greedy philanderers who will sacrifice anything so long as we can still make enough money to pay for our Internet porn site memberships. We are the modern day Rome, a shell of our former self and unable to stop our inevitable decline. We are weak. Unable to muster the resolve to stand up for what is right. A global bully, who if you slap in the face will run home crying to its mommy (i.e. the United Nations). The sad fact is Bin Laden is right in many ways, particularly in regard to our European allies. The Spanish peoples unconditional surrender to the forces of evil has punctuated this fact in stark reality. Now, since it is quite evident that we stand alone in the world in the fight for freedom, we Americans must look inside ourselves and decide if we actually have the will to win the War on Terror. Or are we, like the Europeans, going to bury our heads in the sand and hope that the problem of international terrorism just goes away. [MORE]

Also posted is the latest Op/Ed by Stephen Erwin, Assault Weapons Proliferation:

Anti-gun Republicrats in the U.S. Senate have proved that they can pass an extension to the Assault Weapons Ban of 1994. They succeeded in part because most of the public and even the majority of its core supporters don’t begin to understand the most important truths about the legislation. [MORE]
