Islam had everything to do with Fort Hood

Insane people reflect the obsessions of their times. In the old days, insane people heard messages from the Devil. In the post-nuclear age, they were in contact with Martians. And nowadays, if their Muslim, Islam gives the impetus to their urges. Indeed, Islam is an all-purpose blank check for bad behavior....

British Muslims approve of Muslim soldiers killing fellow troops
(Read all posts from Bookworm)
It’s very simple, according to some British Muslims. You can be a soldier in your nation’s military as long as your military isn’t fighting against Muslims. However, if your military is fighting against Muslims, your military has become the enemy, and you should use your resources and abilities to kill your fellow...

Watch the Democratic dominoes fall

There is a lot of talk about whether, looking ahead to the 2010 elections, we’re looking at 1980, or 1994, or 1932 or some other American political year that I can’t even think of right now. I actually think we’re looking at a different year altogether: 1989. As you may recall, 1989...

My husband attended a professional multi-day seminar at an Ivy League university. One of the classes he attended touched directly upon the work he does day in and day out. The teacher for this seminar is a professor at the Ivy League institution. As one of the premier “experts” in his field, he is an...

Old joke:
At a very fancy ball, a man has been talking to a woman for a while, and they’re getting along well. Eventually he asks her, “Would you sleep with me for $1 million?”
She bats her eyes at him: “Oh, you romantic man!” She then suggests that they rendezvous in a quiet...

Sadly for those of us trying to raise children, we live in an era in which the boundaries for polite behavior seem to have vanished. In no other era in modern times would popular culture be bombarded with this kind of stuff:
A presidential administration that is so foul-mouthed, its obscenities alone are newsworthy.
Newscasters on...

Zombie decimates attempts to defend Kevin Jennings
(Read all posts from Bookworm)
Part I: Kevin Jennings, as you recall, is Obama’s Safe Schools Czar. He’s the one who came under fire because (a) he boasts in his autobiography about giving a 15 year old gay boy safe sex advice regarding a sexual relationship with an adult man, as opposed to dealing with a statutory rape problem...

You know it’s been a good evening when Mom, Dad, and the kids all leave a party ebullient. The party in question was a fund-raising reception aboard the USS Hornet (and co-sponsored by the Bay Area TAILHOOK Ready Room), which is a floating museum. The guests of honor were members of the Blue...

Getting past the “idiot,” “nuts” and “wacko” factor so that liberals have their moment of cognitive dissonance

I’ve been thinking a lot about responses to my post regarding the gal who is running for town council, the one who donated to Obama, and who nevertheless seems to be a fiscal conservative. I asked how she can live with the cognitive dissonance. Several of you pointed out, in one form or...

All of us have long known that poverty in America isn’t like poverty anywhere else in the world. There really isn’t anything here comparable to the poverty in Haiti, or Calcutta, or large swathes of Africa. Even poor people have televisions and phones. And it’s apparent that a surprising number of people...

Obama keeps Hitler analogy in the public eye
(Read all posts from Bookworm)
Is Obama telling a true story or not? I don’t know and with Obama’s credibility gap, it’s impossible to tell. It doesn’t matter, though. What does matter is that, by relaying this anecdote, Obama is keeping alive the Obama/Hitler analogy:
President Obama at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation dinner last night, discussing false...

Strange visitor from another planet

I should have realized it, because the signs were all there. There was, of course, this picture:
Others understood it too:
His identity couldn’t be more clear, as they knew when they did the old Superman show:
Yes, it’s Superman, strange visitor from another planet, with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men! Superman, who...

Liberals are correct — I have a serious problem with Obama’s color
(Read all posts from Bookworm)
Whenever I read the news, I’m being told that those who disagree with Obama do so based on his color. Ordinary Americans simply can’t handle a black man in a power position and reflexively disagree with him and wish him ill. It’s not even personal, we’re told. It’s just that we’re bone-deep...
