"I was not angry since I came to France/Until this instant." So cries Henry V in one of the play's pivotal moments. Henry, having just learned of the slaughter of his camp's servant boys at the hands of the dastardly French, declares that up until that point, he"d been warring with the ...
For far too many political-opinion writers, Independence Day has turned into an annual bitchfest about the U.S., with an inescapable flood of op-eds about how America is "warlike," how the Founders were "racist," and how the whole shebang is merely an excuse for mindless jingoism. ...
Life in these United States can be very difficult for an African-American cisgendered homosexual male rice-queen. Like I needed to tell any of you that. I"m sure we all sympathize with Donovan Trott, a gay black filmmaker with a sizable chip on his nicely toned shoulder. Last week, Trott penned ...
Looking back at my school years, attending majority-black public schools in L.A. during the early and mid-1980s, I"m not so much struck by the things I experienced, but by the things I did not. Not once did I encounter anything even remotely akin to the politically correct bullying that these ...

Often, when people who know me primarily through my writing meet me in person, what stands out to them the most is that I rarely cuss in person. It can be a little disconcerting, because in my writing, I cuss a lot. But one-on-one, I"ll usually substitute "friggin"" and ...
In the forty-year battle between Ernst Zundel and the Jews, I think we can finally declare a winner. Hold on to your hats, folks, because the end result is a real shocker. In Harry Caray voice: "Jews win! Jews win!" Zundel, for those of you who don"t know, is a 78-year-old Holocaust ...
Poor Bill O"Reilly…taken down by a combination of corporate cowardice, female coworkers, and his own boorishness. It's an ignominious end to the career of a highly successful opinion warrior. Like Stonewall Jackson being ventilated by his own boys, O"Reilly wasn"t Derbyshire"d ...
