Prager: Reid Punished by Liberal Preoccupation with Private Comments

I think that Harry Reid is a left-wing ideologue who is doing serious harm to a great country.

I think that Harry Reid would charge any Republican colleague with racism and ask for that person’s resignation if he or she said what Reid is reported to have said about Barack Obama’s color and accent.

I think that every liberal Democrat deserves to be hoisted on his own petard and stung by the race card that liberals invented and have used for decades against Republican conservatives.

Prager: Have We Stopped Trying to Make Good People?

Dennis-Prager.jpgThe most important question any society must answer is: How will we make good people?

That is the question Judeo-Christian values have grappled with. There are many and profound theological and practical differences between Judaism and Christianity. But in the American incarnation of Judeo-Christian values — and America is really the one civilization that developed an amalgamation of Jewish and Christian values — the emphasis has been on individual character.

If you had hope that the election of a black president might improve black-white relations in America, reading the column by Charles M. Blow in Saturday’s New York Times will effectively crush it.

Prager: Left Destroys More than It Creates

Prager: Left Destroys More than It Creates

Watching the left attempting to undo the greatness of American medicine and dismantle the unprecedentedly powerful American economic engine built almost entirely on non-governmental entrepreneurial effort, I realize once again that the left is far better at destroying than building.
I first realized this as I watched the left — and here I sadly include the [...]
