Not So Super Tuesday

Posted on February 5, 2008 by D3 Support

He Loves Her, He Loves Her NOT

Posted on February 4, 2008 by D3 Support

Here’s a thought. Bill Clinton obviously wants his wife to become President very, very badly. He stumps for her, fights for her, and is even being accused of racist attacks against Barack Obama on her behalf. These are the actions … Continue reading →

The Reality of Life

Posted on February 3, 2008 by D3 Support

You have your challenges, and the people you care about have theirs. Everyone has them, because life is–among other things–a series of challenges to be conquered. You can be sensitive to the fact that a loved one has challenges as … Continue reading →

Freedom Rebates

Posted on February 2, 2008 by D3 Support

Interesting contradiction: Tax cuts (or rebates) for the middle and lower class are “good” because the beneficiaries of these cuts will spend this money and it will “stimulate the economy.” At the same time, tax cuts for the “wealthy” are … Continue reading →

Your Enemy, My Enemy

Posted on January 30, 2008 by D3 Support

Q: Dr. Hurd, I have a question. A friend of mine really hurt and betrayed me, so I’m done with him. I won’t have any more contact with him. Another good friend of mine is friends with this former friend. … Continue reading →

Republicrat Big Government: Alive and Well

Posted on January 27, 2008 by D3 Support

It looks like Rudy Giuliani will probably not be the nominee since his strategy depended on a clearcut win in Florida that now seems unlikely. I’m much less disappointed than I would have been, however. Despite his claim to be … Continue reading →

Self-Hating Rich Man

Posted on January 26, 2008 by D3 Support

Bill Gates is complaining that capitalism should be doing a better job of bridging the gap between rich and poor. (See “The Wall Street Journal,” front page 1-24-08). Now what is more annoying than someone who benefits from capitalism suddenly, … Continue reading →

“They”

Posted on January 24, 2008 by D3 Support

I really hate it when people bundle together social/moral and political notions. For example: “Smoking in public is terrible. They ought to outlaw it.” Who are “they”? The government, of course. But what gives “them” the right to impose coercion … Continue reading →

Psychological Populism

Posted on January 23, 2008 by D3 Support

Q: Dr. Hurd, why do so many people become fascinated with the plight of others, especially celebrities? For example, there’s Britney Spears. Or the actor from “Brokeback Mountain” who may have killed himself? A: I don’t know that most people … Continue reading →

What Courage Is–And Isn’t

Posted on January 22, 2008 by D3 Support

Courage is not some rationalization for evasion and denial. A courageous person is someone fully rational, and fully aware of all the facts. Despite the facts, the courageous person resolves to take action anyway. This is the essence of courage. … Continue reading →

Good Greed

Posted on January 21, 2008 by D3 Support

Greed and “materialism” have their good points. The root of these things are in the emotion of wanting. It’s true that some will steal or cheat to get what they want; but most will work for it. Since cheating and … Continue reading →
