Conservative Christian Teenagers Prepare for Politics

By Robert Kunzman

…dents are encouraged to participate in summer camps such as iGovern, voter registration drives, regional clubs, and an intriguing feature called Student Action Teams (SATs). These adult-supervised teams of students engage directly with the political process through participation in electoral campaigns. Several prominent politicians credit the efforts of GenJ’s SATs with their campaign victories, most recently Rep. Tom McClintock, who won Californi…

Culture Wars Today, Tomorrow, and Forever?

By Bill Berkowitz

…tically correct idea that it’s OK to be gay. She is paid a lot of money to promote this agenda, and she’s good at it. She is articulate in her arguments and velvety smooth in her affirmation. Just come to Oprah, all you who are weary and burdened, and she will console you. Oprah’s feel-good doctrine is the same one adopted in the last 30 years by mainstream psychologists, Hollywood producers, gay rights organizations and some mainline churches. It…

Meet Arizona’s Even More Anti-Immigrant Bill

By Lauri Lebo

…a lawmakers of what it means to respect and uphold the Constitution of the United States and Arizona.” “SB 1611 represents an unprecedented attack on the rights of students and creates a permanent underclass of young people in this state who will be shut out of a basic education,” added Meetze. “It defies the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1982 decision, Plyler v. Doe, which prohibited states from conditioning access to public education on who the child i…

By the Way: Obama and Faith-Based Initiatives

By Randall Balmer

…lic endorsement from a minister, for instance, or partisan-inflected voter registration drives), then I think we have a problem. Obama, however, eager to court religious voters—and sending a clear signal early in the campaign that he will not cede the evangelical vote to the Republican Party—apparently sees no such constitutional complications in the faith-based initiative program he proposes. But Obama’s proposal suffers from timidity, and so I p…

No More Pencils, No More Books: The Ultimate Goal of All Those Anti-Education Bills That Nobody’s Talking About

By Andrew L. Seidel

…burdensome new requirements on voters—think voter IDs and barring same day registration—people will throw up their hands at the opaque, constantly-shifting bureaucracy and simply stay home. Some are aware of this tactic but very few seem to understand the larger ambition of these laws and how they fit into a decades-long attack on public schools (my fellow RD writer Chrissy Stroop being one exception). They don’t just want to ban these topics or b…

Egyptians vs. The Police

By H.A. Hellyer

…od. Foolishly, I did not take his national identification card and his car registration — I just asked him to open the trunk of his car. He opened it with pleasure, and was about to drive off, when Muhammad, one of my neighbors, recognized him. “Oh, hello. Wait a minute — aren’t you the police officer we saw here yesterday?” Bashfully, he replied, “Um, yes.” Muhammad responded, with all the righteousness evident in his voice, “So, no work for you…

Saving Teens from Obama: When Bible Study Goes Wrong

By Vyckie Garrison

…ion, if we elect Obama to another four-year term, by 2016 we will have the United States of Islam. D’Souza, an Indian immigrant, spends a considerable amount of time at the beginning of the movie showing that racism is no longer a big problem in America (before jamming into a whiplash-inducing reverse when he concludes that Obama only won by working Americans’ racism to his advantage). The premise of the film is that we can’t perceive the presiden…

Holocaust Humor and The ‘Real’ Germany — As Top Officials Shatter Post-WWII Taboos, German Conservatives Follow GOP Playbook and Charge Ahead

By Annika Brockschmidt

…ake it easier and less dehumanizing for trans people to legally change the registration of the sex assigned to them at birth. In short, Aiwanger went through the right-wing charts of this summer and simply ignored the accusations. In the audience, people held up signs expressing their support, with one man wearing a T-shirt which read “Stand by Aiwanger in times of need, otherwise our Bavaria is dead.” A truly MAGA-esque sentiment where the dear L…

Sheldon Adelson’s Long Game

By Sarah Posner

…ey on American Jewish attitudes. His money isn’t about 2016 or even 2020 or 2024, it’s about staving off the shifting views of American Jews about Israel, or at least constraining political dialogue about it. Citizens United enabled Adelson to pour as much of his money as he wants into influencing elections, but that’s really a misnomer. He’s not influencing the outcome of elections, but enforcing how candidates speak. Case in point (a story we kn…

The Roots of the American Right’s Muslim Brotherhood Panic

By Sarah Posner

…rote about on Saturday, and has been echoed by Rush Limbaugh, now promises, “Islamists, in particular the anti-Western Muslim Brotherhood, seem poised to take power throughout the Middle East as a result of riots that have already toppled one Arab regime and are threatening others, in what some are calling only the latest wave of an Islamic ‘tsunami’ sweeping the globe.” Oh, and look! The Brotherhood has learned its tactics from Bill Ayers and Cod…
