Courtesy of Jonah Goldberg, It’s like a “Tonight Show” joke. Leno: “The president is so dorky …” Audience: “How dorky is he? “He’s so dorky, when he gets angry he convenes a panel of experts to tell him whose ass to kick.” Heh, heh.
(Originally posted at NewsReal) Sorry, Tina Brown, but feminism is already dead. And I say, “You’re welcome.” As perpetual children, you self-avowed feminists may not thank us yet. You may continue to stomp and whine and throw your little tantrums, petulantly holding your mouths closed to the icky vegetables known as truth, personal responsibility and […]
Many left-wingers complain that our healthcare system as it stands leaves out the poor, elderly, and those least able to care for themselves. They say that because of this inequity private medical care should be eliminated and government should take over that role in society. That way, they claim, all will be treated equally and […]
If you are interested in the rule of law, if you are someone who upholds the Constitution, or someone that believes in the sovereignty of America’s borders, Chicago Alderman Danny Solis wants you to know that you are a Nazi. That’s right Moreno thinks you are “wrong,” and you are “evil” if you want to […]
I initially became aware there was some sort of: : soccer series, bowl, contest, kick-off — whatever they call it — going on because when I was scanning for links for Linkiest, I kept running across pictures of soccer hotties: Viva la socialism ball hotties! While I did peruse several of these “articles” (does a post […]
It used to be said “war is hell.” A more accurate description today might be “war is purgatory.” Political correctness demands that reason must prevail, even though war is conducted precisely because reasoning, aka diplomacy, has failed. We used to understand this. When America was threatened during WWll, we didn’t wring our collective hands wondering […]
Back in my day, we went to the zoo, museums, planetariums, aquariums and such. Educational places that were fun. Now, it seems that schools have to drag the kiddies along for a propaganda trip which is worse then you think, but goes right along with standard leftist thought (if you can apply the word “thought” […]
You remember Prince Charles. The guy who speechifies all the time about anthropogenic global warming, saying we all need to change our lifestyles to save Mother Gaia, then flies all over the world in private jets many, many, many, many times. He takes limo’s all the time, drives big gas guzzling cars, takes coal fired […]
The 1960s began with a presidential election between conservative cold warrior Richard Nixon…and the surprisingly conservative cold warrior John F. Kennedy. In terms of the similarity between the two candidates, and the public they represented, this was a high point in national unity. The assassination of JFK began a process that ultimately shattered that unity. During the course of the 1960s, Americans witnessed the split between the liberalism of FDR, Harry Truman, JFK and LBJ, and the rise of the punitive New Left that emerged in the wake of President Kennedy’s assassination. As we explore in the latest edition of our Silicon Graffiti video blog, the alpha and the omega of those two forms of American liberalism came less than a month apart, in the summer of 1969…
Representative Peter Roskam tries to offer an amendment that makes sure that the executives of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac don’t make more money than the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Naturally the Democrats would rather pay millions to the executives that are still running Freddie and Fannie into the ground than accept […]

Today, the Huffington Post headlines Afghanistan and also today, I had the pleasure of having Michael Franzak, Afghan veteran and author of the Afghanistan war memoir A Nightmare’s Prayer: A marine harrier pilot’s war in Afghanistan. The contrasts couldn’t be more stark. The Huffington Post paints a dire pictureand headlines an op-ed urging President Obama […]
No, seriously, folks, that’s the “new” plan. The Politico did a whole article on it, Long pilloried for being soft on illegal immigration, top Democratic officials have concluded there’s only one way they can hope to pass a comprehensive immigration bill: Talk more like Republicans. They’re seizing on the work of top Democratic Party operatives […]
It’s hard to imagine how the subversion of the Church of England could get any worse — yet it will, should Prince Charles ascend to the throne. The effective head of the Church of England is the dhimmified, sharia-promoting, anti-American, tradition-bashing Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams. If that isn’t bad enough, the titular head — […]
If only squids could be trained to talk, you could name one Comrade Obama and teach it to intone, “Let me be clear” before it lets loose with a cloud of ink. But there is one thing Chairman Zero has made perfectly lucid: where he falls in the worldwide struggle between liberty and tyranny. His […]
A Virginia-based publisher has decided that the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and other founding books are likely offensive and they want their readers to understand that these old documents are no longer valid ways of thinking. And so the publisher, Wilder Publications, has put a warning label on its reprints of America’s founding documents […]
Congress has suddenly realized something. Animals could be dangerous! Gosh. One wonders what magick faierie dust was sprinkled on these stalwart protectors of the public weal that made them realize that animals are dangerous? Whatever fantastic episode befell Congress they have acted and hence these high mukety-mucks last year introduced an ominous sounding bill called […]
The indispensable Mark Hemingway of the Washington Examiner recently caught another union outrage. This time it’s the teachers union in New Jersey trying to extort cash from parents directly, as opposed to merely extorting cash from parents through their taxes. Hemingway alerts us to a New Jersey parent that was aghast that the NJ teachers […]
Rachel Larimore of Slate asks where the Rah-Rah Sisterhood is hanging out after so many women women won in the Republican primaries yesterday. Really, Rachel? This is a head scratcher for you? You’ve watched conservative women being savaged by liberal reporters and pundits over the last year and half and you’re still fuzzy on why […]
The hatred of America in Mexico and their bizarre sense of entitlement when it comes to breaking our laws is becoming ever more alarming. First of all, we have this story: Mexico has slammed the U.S. for its ‘disproportionate use of force’ after a boy of 14 was shot dead by an American Border Patrol […]
Even though this was a private company who did this, why do I get the feeling that Obama and the Donkeys agree with this? A small publishing company is under fire after putting warning labels on copies of the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence and other historical documents. Wilder Publications warns readers of its reprints […]
Last week-end, Robert Spencer from Jihad Watch and my friend Pamela Geller from Atlas Shrugs helped organize a roughly 10,000 person strong protest against the mega-mosque that’s being built at Ground Zero. This is a noble cause and Pamela, Robert, and the other people at Stop Islamization of America who are fighting the good fight […]
Well, I suppose if we can serve such nice food at Gitmo to stone cold jihadis, we can do the same for illegal aliens. Of course, there are a heck of a lot more aliens than the jihadis Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials are preparing to roll out a series of changes at several privately […]
(Cross-posted from NewsReal) Rachel Larimore, at Slate’s Double X, asked about the primary wins last night, “Where is the rah-rah sisterhood?” The overriding theme of Tuesday night’s primary coverage was that it was a big night for female politicians. But there is a noticeable dearth of rah-rah sisterhood going on (though the National Review is […]
They’re not dead babies, they’re just clumps of cells: White House memos from 1997, when Elena Kagan was a top domestic policy advisor to President Clinton, show that Kagan — nominated to the Supreme Court by President Obama — recommended that the Clinton administration permit cloning of human embryos for research purposes. Writing just months […]
Over at Exurban Jon’s place I read this from CNN and felt sick to my stomach: “The United States will contribute $400 million in development aid to the Palestinian territories and work with Israel to loosen its embargo on Gaza, President Barack Obama said Wednesday. Obama’s announcement came after White House talks with Palestinian Authority […]
Lots of proverbial ink has been spilled over Sarah Palin and the hypocrisy of the feminists regarding anything involving her. The scum of the blogosphere that is Wonkette published a piece this morning, based on the oh-so-credible tweet of some random minion. The hot topic of the day: Did Palin get breat implants? The fact […]
Normally, I don’t bother to comment on angry tweets aimed in my direction. In fact, I generally block annoying people on Twitter. I don’t mind the fighting, but if I’m going to do it, I want to do it on my web page where it can draw an audience. So, earlier today, I popped off […]
Timing couldn’t be worse on this one, and frankly, we are broke.: Via the NYT: President Obama promised a $400 million aid package for the West Bank and Gaza on Wednesday, as the United States scrambled to come up with a way out of the stalemate in the Middle East exacerbated by the Gaza flotilla […]
Possibly the best news regarding yesterday’s primaries comes from Nevada, where Sharron Angle — endorsed by the Great One himself — has earned the job of displacing Dingy Harry Reid. Angle is a solid countermoonbat. As the Daily Caller observes, her win represents the increasing clout of the Tea Party movement: Republican voters in Nevada […]
