Telegraph: Damon Lindelof, the writer of Star Trek Into Darkness, has apologised to fans for the scene in which… Wait, wait, this is all wrong.

Lerner-itis (n.) Mental illness triggered when the patient finds other people are forming opinions about him that he doesn’t like. The patient starts to behave irrationally, handing out orders to people about what to think and what not to think.

Who’s squirming harder: The gentleman appearing from 2:24 through 3:03 pronouncing “if guns are outlawed then only outlaws have guns” to be a “weak argument,” but unable to explain his rationale…or me, watching him. Him, I suppose, if I could film my first reaction in the web cam and measure it…I’m probably just slightly wincing. […]

This is one of those weeks where I hope people have been paying attention… The following were either written/uttered since Monday morning, or else revealed to be dreadfully bad ideas since Monday morning. Quite a week for a good education, for anyone willing to watch, listen & remember. 1. Hoping that the persons responsible for […]

It’s rare that I somewhat find myself agreeing with far left liberals on an issue, but this op-ed piece by Jeremi Suri is absurd Bomb North Korea, Before It’s Too Late The Korean crisis has now become a strategic threat to America’s core national interests. The best option is to destroy the North Korean missile […]

As America observed Equal Pay Day on Tuesday, Democratic politicians hypocritically used this day for political gain and shameless politicking. Let me be clear: I’m in favor of equal pay; women should be paid at the same rate and be afforded the same opportunities as men. This isn’t not a partisan issue. I have both […]

So, Julian Castro is a very far left Democrat who has worked for the racist Hispanic group La Raza United, which his mother helped found. Said group wants parts of the Southwest split off to be an exclusionary nation. And now he writes (Politico) Members of Congress have returned to our nation’s capital after a […]

The Marketplace Fairness Act passed last Friday, and conservatives are somewhat lukewarm about it. : As Robert W. Wood wrote in Forbes: on March 23, …[the bill] doesn’t impose a federal tax or even a new state tax. Online sellers are already required to collect sales tax from customers in their own states. But under the Supreme […]

A “dry run” at not-solving a phony problem, so we can get our pretend-to-solve-it skills at peak performance [for] when we start not-solving the real ones. Words of wisdom from me, over at the Hello Kitty of Blogging. Veering off on a tangent, in a piece of correspondence, I elaborate “off line”: People are frustrated, […]

Was just given cause to think about this… For those who can’t spare the 65 seconds to watch all the way through, someone’s prepared a cool animated .GIF: Not sure what got me on that. I was reading Gerard’s site, and I happened across something there…this, I think. Which led me to this. Oh, dear. […]

Cyrus Massoumi from Mrconservative.com is probably the single smartest social media wizard I’ve ever met inside or outside of politics. What he’s doing with Facebook, marketing trends and data analysis is just head and shoulders above and beyond what I’ve been doing or, in my experience, what anyone else in political blogging is doing today.
