Dr. Joseph Audie

Joseph Audie has a Ph.D. in biophysics and is a believer in the perennial philosophy, best propounded by the Dumb Ox.
 

• It's bad enough trying to reach the vast majority of Americans who are outright believers in totalitarian mass democracy, but I wonder sometimes whether even those who still talk about the Constitution and the Founders believe what they're supposed to believe. This well-considered essay by Dr. Joseph Audie may serve as a reminder for those who have taken their eye off the ball: "Reflections on the revolution in America: Six principles." (April 30, 2008)

• Others have detected the machinations that our esteemed Ronn Neff identifies as Polite Totalitarianism, and one of those is our esteemed Dr. Audie, who gives us his take in this fine essay, concentrating on our masters' sedulous attack on free expression: "Chattering away on the road to serfdom: Free speech and tyranny." (November 21, 2007)

• Dr. Audie, the master analyst, demonstrates in this piece how important it is to know what questions to ask: "The mystery of homeland security: Why have no more attacks occurred?" Very many of our countrymen, of course, ask no questions at all. (April 28, 2007)

• Flacks for the Empire — some of them, anyway — are once again ladling out the optimism with respect to Little Bush's great foreign adventure, and the assertions of one such operative have provoked Mr. Audie to craft another of his examinations, both finely reasoned and historically informed: "Iraq's 'impossible' insurgency." (December 5, 2005)

• Mr. Audie once again demonstrates his gift for incisive analysis in "Bush's imperative category: What is a WMD?" (April 29, 2005)

• One of our specialties hereabouts is asking highly inconvenient questions, and Mr. Audie does just that in his second piece for TLD: "Six questions for President Bush." (October 27, 2004)

• In his initial appearance, still as a guest writer, Mr. Audie offered this impressive and relentless analysis of a war-apologist piece in the Weekly Standard: "Linking al Qaeda and Iraq: Stephen Hayes's rush to closure." (December 18, 2003)
