Month: November 2009

Believers in the Second Amendment have much to be happy about, even with having a strongly anti-2nd president in power, and a party in control of Congress that traditionally doesn’t respect the 2nd Amendment. Not only have pro-2nd activists generally held the line on rights, they’ve expanded them in some cases. Obviously we had the […]

Wonders never cease! From the Los Angeles Times, “Billy Carter’s Old Gas Station: A National Monument?“: In the age of the $787-billion stimulus package, it is, perhaps, a modest question: Should the American taxpayer foot the bill to enshrine the gas station run by the late Billy Carter — the beer-swilling, wisecracking, self-professed redneck brother […]

Me: I think we’ve reached a turning point, and the turning point is this: Intellectualism has become the readiness, willingness and ability to call dangerous things safe, and safe things dangerous. If you’re ready, willing and able to call dangerous things dangerous and safe things safe, you are a moron. Farker BigSteve3000 (2009-11-13 05:12:23 AM): […]

The headline up top is borrowed from Power Line, “Why is This Man Bowing?” (via Memeorandum): Obama’s breach of protocol is of a piece with the substance of his foreign policy. He means to teach Americans to bow before monarchs and tyrants. He embodies the ideological multiculturalism that sets the United States on the same […]

1. Katie Couric was totally hitting on her before their interview. 2. McCain really only picked her for Veep in an attempt to make Mrs. McCain jealous (it worked). 3. It also made Meghan jealous. 4. The boots are left over from an old Nazi Mistress costume. 5. Sarah was the quiet mousy girl nobody […]

I’m painting with a broad brush, of course. I’m applying one guy’s statement to a large (although not the largest) segment of American society. Still, I think I’m on solid ground here. Liberals think money grows on trees. Ezra Klein, talking about the health care “reform” bill currently being bandied about in the U.S. Senate: […]

My weekly round up of the best of conservative talk radio is now up at WND. You can enjoy FREE audio and video clips from Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck and other hosts whose shows you might have missed this week. PLUS: I talk about the new Cato Institute report on the return of […]

It’s big news. From CNN, “Accused 9/11 Plotter Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Faces New York Trial.” And perhaps a bit dangerous. From Red State, “Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to Be Sent to New York for Trial.” There have been reports in the past month about another potential terrorist attack disrupted in New York City. Bringing these high […]

Associated Press was provided with an advance copy of Sarah Palin’s new book, Going Rogue, so they get the scoop on its contents. I attempted to get an advance copy of Palin’s book. No dice. Embargoed. “Under lock and key,” I was told. So the American Spectator doesn’t get the scoop. Neither does National Review, […]
