Op-Eds
Op-Eds by our Officers and Fellows do not necessarily represent the views or focus issues of the CJV.
On Climate Junk Science and the Utter Nonsense of Twelve Years to Destruction
The “science” on climate is not “settled.” Demagogues declare otherwise to silence open debate. Demagogues and fools. Al Gore, who has found in Climate Change the opportunity both to Prophet and to Profit, is both demagogue and fool. He went to an Ivy League college — guess how he got in — and did horrifically poorly in science.
The Real Islamophobia
It is truly embarrassing that Fox News responded to the complaint not merely by condemning the confused part of Pirro’s remarks, but by suspending her program. Omar faced no consequences for her repeated expressions of classic anti-Semitism; yet Pirro, for her off-hand offensive remark about Omar’s headscarf, was suspended.
Really, There Is Something About George Conway That Does Not Add Up
As overt anti-Jewish elements started emerging at that campus where my wife worked, I was tempted to write about it. I have tons of “street cred” there because, as noted above, I am an alumnus, and my three years there saw me win several awards and honors. But one thing always held me back from writing about that school: My wife was working there.
Purim and the Book of Esther
The Jewish Democrat Liberals will be spending the holiday persuading each other that there is no anti-Semitism in the Democrat Party, that Ilhan Omar is the modern-day Queen Esther, and that Haman was misunderstood. That all the misunderstanding with Haman could have been resolved with a simple Anti-Hate Resolution.
A Soaring Democratic Primary: A Thing of Beauty to Behold
Now is Democrat Primary Season, and it is a thing of beauty to see the Left media come to life in a spurt of honesty and professionalism, as the Fourth Estate briefly emerge from ten years’ hibernation to dig honestly into the candidacies of a murder of Democrat crows running for President.
Whatta Bunch of Phony Baloneys
In an era where you lose “society-advantage points” for being White, more points for being male, more for having progenitor roots anywhere in Europe, and a few more for being all three plus “straight”… In such a society, it was bound to happen that imposters would start emerging.
Legalizing Marijuana: A Heaping Pot of Hypocrisy
Full steam ahead, carefree and without looking back, states and cities controlled by Democrats are on a high, stoned with excitement as they celebrate the legalization of recreational pot in their jurisdictions.
Did 22 Rabbis Handcuff Orthodoxy?
It was merely a ruse. What was really bothering the organizers of the petition was not so much the lack of communication, but the right-winged tilt the organization has taken. Had NCYI issued a statement condemning Netanyahu’s position, not a word would have been uttered by these same rabbis.
Why Trump Wins on National Emergency
The Trump Administration initially will lose on “National Emergency” at the district court level because some Obama-Clinton Judge within the ambit of the Ninth Circuit will say so. The Ninth Circuit will knock down the President by affirming the lower court on appeal. One day thereafter the matter will end up in the Supreme Court. When it gets there, the Trump Administration wins on a basic principle: the law says so.
‘Broadening’ Is An Insult To Us All
The truly outrageous defense of Ilhan Omar: Using the fact that she is a Muslim, African-American woman to protect her from censure. Let there be no mistake: The House’s watered down resolution reinforced this perception.
