Posted on by Dave Blount

Sorry, women. Sorry, Hispanics. Chicago mayoral candidate James Meeks says quota spoils in the form of set-aside city contracts should go only to blacks: “The word ‘minority’ from our standpoint should mean African American. I don’t think women, Asians and Hispanics should be able to use that title,” he said. “That’s why our numbers cannot […]

Posted on by Dave Blount

After Galileo Galilei was forced by the authoritarian establishment of his time to renounce his observation that the Earth revolves around the Sun, he’s said to have said, “And yet it moves.” The modern equivalent would be, “And yet homosexuality spreads AIDS.” The new archbishop of Brussels, Andre-Joseph Leonard, is being targeted by homosexualist groups, […]

 

Science Proves That Liberals Are Easily Led Astray

Posted on by Dave Blount

We’ve always known that conservatives stay true to enduring values, whereas liberals are led this way and that as they chase the pernicious intellectual fads pushed by the malignant puppeteers who run the progressive media and academic establishments.

Assange’s Hideout: Journalist Club

Posted on by Dave Blount

America’s enemies certainly find undignified places to hide. Remember Saddam Hussein’s spider hole?

More Tantrums in London Over Tuition

Posted on by Dave Blount

Liberalism promises everything you want at someone else’s expense, hooking the unscrupulous on the opiate of government largesse. The problem, as Margaret Thatcher famously pointed out, is that eventually socialists run out of other people’s money. That’s when the withdrawal symptoms set in — including violent tantrums by Big Government’s beneficiaries: Police with riot shields […]

 

Ecokooks: Plants Should Be Able to Sue

Posted on by Dave Blount

The concept of “civil rights” is twisted into an ever more grotesque mockery as liberal groups exploit it to advance their pernicious agendas: What if a trimmed tree could sue as an amputee or a shucked clam could claim wrongful eviction? In an effort to ban everything from drilling oil to incinerating garbage, about a […]

 

Government Wastes Fortune Printing Defective Money

Posted on by Dave Blount

Big Government may have settled on printing money as a solution to all problems because that’s one thing that falls within its tiny realm of competence — or does it? Because of a problem with the presses, the federal government has shut down production of its flashy new $100 bills, and has quarantined more than […]

Posted on by Dave Blount

If FCC Commissioner Michael Copps had any hair, he would let it down not only for the BBC, but also for moonbat-infested Columbia University: American journalism is in “grave peril,” FCC Commissioner Michael Copps says, and to bolster “traditional media,” he said the Federal Communications Commission should conduct a “public value test” of every commercial […]

Do-Gooders Declare Internet to Be a Human Right

Posted on by Dave Blount

Most causes advanced by do-gooders sound great — until you give a moment’s thought to where their underlying assumptions will lead. For example: If you’re looking to do something good for a change, the NGO A Human Right, which believes “equal, universal, uninhibited Internet access is a human right,” is in the process of raising […]

 

USA Bailing Out Bankrupt Europe

Assange’s Supplier and the Repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell

Posted on by Dave Blount

British Report: Not Letting Sex Criminals Adopt Children Is Discriminatory

Posted on by Dave Blount

Smoking Gun on Google Bias: Moonbattery.com Listed as “Compromised”

Posted on by Dave Blount

It looks like Moonbattery’s gentle admonishments of Google for incessantly wallowing in leftist ideology are not going over very well: There is no technical problem with the site, as the ISP has confirmed. Despite its liberal corporate climate, Google supposedly returns search results on a nonpartisan basis. But Moonbattery’s bogus “compromised” status suggests otherwise. On […]

Posted on by Dave Blount

As the Democrat Party’s rapid descent into ultra-radicalism proves, the Cold War isn’t over by a long shot. Mark Ritchie, the Minnesota Secretary of State who took a Senate seat away from Norm Coleman and handed it to the obnoxious left-wing comedian Al Franken, is affiliated not only with Obama’s ACORN, but with the Communist […]

 

HuffPo Commenters on the Oregon Bomber

Somali-born Mohamed Osman Mohamud thought he was serving Islam’s evil god by killing hundreds of innocent Americans at a Christmas tree-lighting celebration in Portland.

Posted on by Dave Blount

In liberal Oregon, how do the authorities react to a Muslim attempt to murder hundreds of innocent families at a Christmas tree-lighting ceremony?
