Soup Nazi Guy Not Pleased That Spencer Ackerman Posted His Photo in Blog Post About Obama Bin Laden’s Bodyguard-Chef

Seriously. You can’t make this stuff up, and there’s an extra kick in that Spencer Ackerman famously called for a Nuremburg-style execution of former President George W. Bush. It turns out that Larry Thomas, the actor who played “The Soup Nazi” on Seinfeld, took issue with Ackerman’s post on Ibrahim Ahmed Mahmoud al-Qosi, who is […]

 

The Destructive Power of Hate Speech Censorship

Some might remember the complaints against my political science campus bulletin board. I was forced to remove a Chuck DeVore “Bounce Boxer” bumper sticker because posting it apparently violated obscure Ed Code rules for non-political advocacy on public displays, a rule that had never been enforced during my entire ten-year tenure at LBCC. I had […]

 

‘MEChA Boy’ Raúl Grijalva Tries to Save Face on Push for Arizona Boycott

That’s not my headline, actually. Or, at least I borrowed the ‘MEChA Boy’ part from Glenn Spencer, who links to the Arizona Daily Star, “Fight SB 1070, Artists Urged“: A group of artists, backed by U.S. Rep. Raúl Grijalva, unveiled a new coalition to fight Arizona’s new immigration law Thursday, offering an alternative for acts […]

On Paper: From Glenn Greenwald to Adolf Eichmann

Mike at Cold Fury says Benjamin Kerstein’s withering essay on left-wing extremist blogger Gleen Greenwald is “as good a takedown of this malignant swine I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen quite a few.” Actually, I was thinking precisely the same thing. Terrorism on paper. At the full entry: “The Definitive Glenn Greenwald Takedown.”

 



California Girls Holiday Blogging!

A day-after holiday roundup from American Power. At left is a good friend of mine, doing a little ’60s-revival partying for the 4th: See: * “Tea Parties and the Constitution.” * “Man Blows Off Arm While Launching Illegal Fireworks.” * “Matthew Rothschild at The Progressive – ‘I Don’t Believe in Patriotism’.” * “Queers Against Israeli […]

 

Tea Parties and the Constitution

As I’ve now mentioned a couple of times, tea party patriots are arguing — at an increasing clip — for activists to get in the business of political conversion. The San Juan Capistrano event on Saturday had just a bit more of an “outreach” feel to it, and recall too that Lt. Col. Allen West […]

 

Surprise! Republicans ‘Racist’ for No Vote on Unemployment Extension

I almost spoke too soon. Just after mentioning that I hadn’t found too many anti-American blogs dissing 4th of July, here we have Zandar the Stupid smearing traditional Americans as racist for opposing the left’s move to create an unemployment benefit entitlement. Paul Krugman slams folks like this as “heartless” and “clueless.” But Sir Stupid […]

Assimilation and the Founding Fathers

At Michelle’s (via): In his immigration speech on Thursday, President Obama heralded America as a “nation of immigrants” defined not by blood or birth, but by “fidelity to the shared values that we all hold so dear.” If only it were so. Left-wing academics and activists spurned assimilation as a common goal long ago. Their […]

 



Leftist Hate Mail of the Day

Leftist totalitarianism on display — and these these are popping up more frequently around here, from the comments to my recent smackdown of fail-blogger Blue Texan at Firedoglake: Wow – had no idea there was this kind of inbred stupidity burning so bright in the States. Here’s the deal teatard – remember November 2008? Yeah […]
