“No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth.” — John F. Kennedy The sad truth of the matter is that most Americans don’t pay much attention to politics and those that do often just parrot doctrine instead of investigating issues with an open mind. […]
The Biggest Problem With Christianity Is The Pastors
There’s a new bad guy in town in West Texas. He’s called the Dunes Sagebrush Lizard. He’s actually kind of cute, as lizards go. He’s about three inches long, a nice tan color, and has a vaguely Winston Churchill-esque expression. He seems harmless enough, but he comes packing a huge, powerful weapon: the federal government. […]
How are we supposed to tell parody from reality when we hear moonbats screeching diatribes like this: Piñatas are not a good idea for your child’s party. Children should never hit anything with a stick. Even worse, kids can get piñatas in their favorite character too. Doesn’t anyone slightly cringe at the thought of their […]
Just because there hasn’t been any “global warming” since the 1990s is no reason not to carry fish by llama into the mountains where they’ll be safe from it. From the moonbattery-ravaged farce we once knew as Great Britain: Thousands of rare fish have been given a lift up a mountain on the back of […]
Like all too many Americans TIME Magazine proves that it doesn’t know what is worth celebrating, noting, or memorializing in this world. Time doesn’t know what “important” means, it doesn’t know what “influential” means, it doesn’t even know what “top” means. And it has proven this again with its latest “2011 TIME 100 most influential […]
News during this past week a story made the rounds that police in Michigan may be using a device in random traffic stops that instantly copies all the data on your cell phone and stores it for later use by police. It was said that this data copying is going on without consent and without […]
Once again we see how lawless the Obama administration and its allies in unions are. By their own admission they don’t care about the law. In the following video we see Obama’s appointee to his Advisory Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations and United Auto Workers President, Bob King, telling attendees at a recent union […]
You may have heard about the story in California where an Orange County Republican Central Committee member Marilyn Davenport, sent to fellow Republicans an image with a “Mom and Dad” chimp with a baby chimp that had Obama’s face photoshopped as his face, along with the words, “Now you know why there is no birth […]
Or, it could simply be because of idiot, moronic, silly, ridiculous, absurd climate alarmist policies. You decide Figures published last week reveal that the moment when Britain’s lights start going out may be much closer than previously predicted. Thanks in part to the hammering they took in the abnormal cold of last winter, six large […]
Isn’t it amazing how this supposedly stupid, moronic, lite-weight non-factor of a politician and presidential candidate garners so much press, loathing, and fear? Not just from those on the Left, but some of the wishy washy Republicans? Mission for anti-Palin movement: Expose her She is a promiscuous, petty and unintelligent, yet deviously conniving warmonger intent […]
Sometimes a video comes along that inspires you, that motivates you, and that helps you appreciate the things you have that other people don’t. Like testicles. That video, for me, was the instant Internet classic Dear Woman. Unlike the “men” in Dear Woman, I don’t apologize for my gender. Men don’t owe women an apology […]
In the modern era, the struggle isn’t to find information, it’s to sort through the absolutely massive glut of information that we’re being bombarded with on a daily basis. In order to help make that easier for people, Doug Ross and I got together to create Trending Right. Trending Right shows the most linked conservative […]
In her latest column, Peggy Noonan notes the cultural deterioration of our country. Imagine for a moment that you are a foreign visitor to America. You are a 40-year-old businessman from Afghanistan. You teach a class at Kabul University. You are relatively sophisticated. You’re in pursuit of a business deal. It’s your first time here. […]
Last week, I did a Liberalism in 120 Seconds video called, “The TSA Agent Who Molested Anna Drexel Should Do Jail Time.” Some people agreed that a TSA agent running his hands over the crotch and behind of a little girl was way over the line and others didn’t. Well, guess what? Now we’ve got […]
Don’t get me wrong; my position on Syria is the same position I had and still have on Libya: We wish you luck in getting rid of your tyrant and maybe we can help a little on the edges. That being said, in neither case should American troops be involved. Yet, in Libya, we’ve put […]
CHURCHVILLE, VA–U.S. Energy prices have risen to more than 6 percent of consumer spending–which may be a historic “tipping point.” Our food prices, meanwhile, have had their steepest increase in a generation, to about 6.5 percent of spending. That’s a double whammy consumers haven’t suffered since Jimmy Carter’s infamous “stagflation,” a painful mix of weak […]
Despite public demand for increasing domestic oil production, the current White House has sent a clear signal that the U.S. will not be increasing production into the future, despite growing demand. While simply one of many factors impacting the global price of oil, it is a factor. But rather than acknowledge that the price of […]
This Sunday morning in the Washington Post’s print edition, there is a long, long article which is entitled “Guantanamo Bay: Why Obama hasn’t fulfilled his promise to close the facility.” Alternate title, per the web permalink, “how the White House lost the fight to close it.” Strangely missing from the article is the proven fact […]
Just a few stories that caught my eye over the past week, whether or not I blogged about them. Click the link under each picture for a little more explanation, or just because it’s nice to give random bloggers some hits. Link: Legal Insurrection. Link: Scared Monkeys. Link: Piece of Work in Progress. Link: The […]
Tug on the heart strings When Rachel Pierce’s soldier father told her he would send something for Easter, she thought he meant a chocolate egg or a cuddly bunny. She got the bunny. But what the pretty 16-year-old wasn’t expecting was that her father, Robert a helicopter gunner who was supposed to be in Afghanistan […]
Yes, I said the un-PC word, hate. Before I rant, take a look at this Easter themed AP photo:
Below is a video book review of Andrew Breitbart’s, “Righteous Indignation: Excuse Me While I Save the World!” I really enjoyed reading it.
Not quite, but: The awarding of the air tanker contract to Boeing over European rival EADS has been making headlines lately, with the promise of thousands of jobs for U.S. workers and suppliers. There may be additional heartening employment news in the same sector, following a request by the U.S. Air Force to identify suppliers […]
The left is desperate to color Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan’s GOP budget plan (The Path to Prosperity, as it is styled) as the end of America, crazed to call his plan a killer of old people, and maniacal about saying that the GOP and Ryan want to destroy the country by asking for a few […]
I’ve mentioned that this weekend the climate alarmists are holding Power Shift 2011 in D.C., sponsored by the Government Accountability Project, a far left group which operates out of D.C. on ….wait, K Street? Isn’t that where all the evil lobbyists reside? And, we get funny stuff like this Climate Science Watch participated in the […]
There are many differing reports on the death toll during yesterdays protest in Syria. The BBC pegs it the highest At least 72 protesters have been killed by security forces in Syria, rights groups say – the highest reported death toll in five weeks of unrest there. Demonstrators were shot, witnesses say, as thousands rallied […]

This post tells the story of a case on which I worked. It’s a true story. Picture this: It’s 2001. You live in California and you own a small business that consists of you and maybe three to five at-will employees. Your profits are decent. One morning, Jane, one of your employees, announces that she’s […]
I’ve been a practicing lawyer for more than twenty years. My legal briefs are pretty much like my blog writing: I develop an argument, and support it with facts (or, in the case of a legal brief, legal cites) that are directly on point. Often, to show my honesty to the court, I’ll make a […]
