Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Every once in a while I like to blow off some steam and deliver a good rant. So get ready for my rant du jour… It’s like a bad parody of the worst propensity of the American professoriate to be, well, as un-American as one can get. But here we have another prosaic example of […]

Krugman Says Obama Doesn’t Blame Bush Enough?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

One of the worst writers in political punditry, a man with a little deserved reputation as a thinker and analyst, is New York Times columnist Paul Krugman. Sometimes the things he says are so absurd that it is hard to believe that even he believes what he is writing. Aside from his discreditable insistence that […]

Misogyny is Funny! If You are a Liberal, That Is. (And If You’re Talking About Sarah Palin)

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Jerry Adler over at Newsweek is up to familiar tricks; the typical leftist move of misogyny disguised as “humor”. I know. I didn’t realize Newsweek was still in publication either. Hey, I suppose the hip, cultured and enlightened folks need something to read whilst sipping their Pinot Noir and fantasizing about Europe in their Ivory […]

Video: Silicon Graffiti — “The Pinchurian Candidate”

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

The weekend before November’s elections, Frank Rich of the New York Times wrote a curious column titled, “The G.O.P. Stalinists Invade Upstate New York.”

On the other hand, it was rather refreshing to see a journalist with the New York Times use the word pejoratively. Needless to say, that hasn’t always been the case, as we’ll explore in the latest edition of our Silicon Graffiti videoblog…

 

Danny Glover Says ‘The Wrath of Gaia Is Punishing You, Haiti’

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

That’s right. As Tim Blair reports, Danny Glover claims that the failure to act on “climate change” in Copenhagen is what caused the earthquake in Haiti. Gaia is vengeful! Repent, you Global Warming Deniers!

Since they are both religions and all.
