This is too much even from moonbats, whose capacity for projection is legendary: Environment lobby group Sea Shepherd has lodged a piracy complaint in the Netherlands against the captain and crew of a Japanese ship that collided with one of its vessels. “We have lodged a complaint of piracy with the Dutch prosecuting authority against […]
Pollster.com has some interesting analysis: Turnout Will Matter — The big spread in results among the polls, and differences apparent within two of them, are all consistent in supporting one finding: The lower the turnout, the better the odds for Scott Brown. These differences indicate that the voters most interested and most likely to vote […]
Leon Wolf of RedState.com and on Twitter as @LeonWolf and Jon Gabriel of Exurbanleague.com and on Twitter as @exJon joined me to discuss the news of the day. What are Scott Brown’s chances? What if Harry Reid were a Republican? How out of touch are the Democrats? What’s going on at the TeaParty Nation convention? […]
I know that we are beating this horse to death with Harry Reid and his racial remarks, but this point just has to be made. An e-mailer over at NRO pointed this out: “Harry Reid’s] remark’s context is (apologies) remarkable. From media reports, it appears that the Majority Leader made these statements to a group […]
I usually avoid discussion of certain issues, such as gay marriage, because they are not really hot button issues with me. Furthermore, while, if pressed, I do not support gay marriage, I do support civil unions, and, this being America, where freedom should reign supreme, and, with a Classical Liberal doctrine of “if it doesn’t […]
Frozen food for thought: The mini ice age starts here The bitter winter afflicting much of the Northern Hemisphere is only the start of a global trend towards cooler weather that is likely to last for 20 or 30 years, say some of the world’s most eminent climate scientists. Their predictions — based on an […]

“There is this standard where Democrats feel that they can say these things and they can apologize when it comes from the mouths of their own. But if it comes from anyone else, it is racism. If Mitch McConnell had said those very words that this chairman and this president would be calling for his […]
If you haven’t heard about John Heilemann and Mark Halperin’s Game Change yet, prepare yourself for the onslaught, because this is going to be One! Hot! Book! Moreover, either because McCain’s treacherous staffers have already done their hit jobs on Palin or because Halperin & Heilemann are both liberals with lots of left-wing sources, the […]
A year ago, I wrote more on gay marriage than anything else. On the heels of passage of Proposition 8, Californians witnessed one of the most vicious campaigns of partisan demonization witnessed in post-civil rights American politics. I noted this briefly the other day, in my essay, “The Coming Prop 8 Show Trial.” The question […]
Like almost everything conservatives warned about Obama eventually bearing true, we were also right about John Edwards and: his propensity towards narcissism. Our only fault was that maybe we didn’t realize it was pathological and sociopathic in nature. The new book “Game Change” exposes the truth about John Edwards and his wife, Elizabeth. : “Game Change” is […]
The FOIA proves its usefulness once again, we’ve discussed Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG) organization before, but we now know a lot more about their strategy thanks to FOIA and some hardworking Second Amendment activists.: A few months back, the WaPo reported that Bloomberg’s group sent a 40 point blueprint to increase gun control […]
I couldn’t let the spot of bother at the University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit go without doing a video on how climate change has changed over the years. In six and a half minutes, look back at…
Ugly liberal moral relativism strikes again: TCA — Director Oliver Stone’s upcoming Showtime documentary miniseries “Secret History of America” promises to put mass murderers such as Stalin and Hitler “in context.” “Stalin, Hitler, Mao, McCarthy — these people have been vilified pretty thoroughly by history,” Stone told reporters at the Television Critics Association’s semi-annual press […]
George Will crafts quite a descriptive metaphor for California’s failing economy, comparing it to the titular ultimate basket-case soldier in Dalton Trumbo’s infamous 1939 anti-war novel “Johnny Got His Gun.” As Trumbo writes, if Johnny got his gun, then most certainly, “Berkeley Got Its Liberalism.”
Over at Hot Air, Karl asks: The new Boston Globe poll showing Democrat Martha Coakley beating Republican Scott Brown by 15-points in the race for Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat, when contrasted with Public Policy Polling showing a dead heat, has people scratching their heads. So what’s up with that? My usual caveat: polls suck. But […]
(My first piece for Breitbart’s new BigJournalism.com site is up. And here it is…) One of the tricks that the Old Media consistently uses to paint conservatives as walking on the dark side is to call Republicans who lean left “moderates,” while those who lean to the right are “right wing” or “hardcore” Republicans. This […]
It would have been amusing if it hadn’t been so sad. This morning I was listening to a phone interview a: Fox News reporter was having with Al: Sharpton: about the recent controversy over a new book that relates how senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s remarked during the 2008 campaign that Obama benefited from being”light skinned” and having […]
Your Mom asks if everyone else was jumping off the AGW bridge, would you? Apparently, McDonalds answer is a resounding “yes”. Headline McDonald’s seeks to cut cows’ methane emissions Three-year study by burger giant aims to reduce pollution from flatulent livestock So now methane, a natural gas produced, in this case, inside one of God’s […]
Tom Wolfe once wrote that “The Great Relearning” — recalling the forgotten common sense that every cultural revolution believes is anathema, “seems to me to be the leitmotif of the twenty-first century in America.”
If so, 21st century America certainly has its work cut out for itself, judging by MTV’s “Jersey Shore” reality show…
Despite finding saarin, mustard gas, and other chemical weapons, and despite various prison sentences for those who used them in Iraq or those who sold them, apparently, the only thing that would have satisfied the left that Saddam had WMDs would have been discovering a giant SPECTRE-sized Ken Adam-styled laboratory with men in white lab coats hard at work caught in the act. But as Elizabeth Blackney, AKA “Media Lizzy” notes on her Facebook page, my how the definition of WMDs has changed…
You have got to be kidding. No? Well then. The top Democrat in the U.S. Senate apologized on Saturday for comments he made about Barack Obama’s race during the 2008 presidential bid. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described then-Sen. Barack Obama as “light skinned” and “with no Negro dialect.” Obama is the nation’s […]
A British news site reports that elderly pensioners have taken to burning books for warmth during the brutal English winter, in a story that ties together not just Ray Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451”, but multiple chapters of Jonah Goldberg’s best-selling “Liberal Fascism”, which celebrates its second year in print this month, and more timely than ever…
The top Democrat in the U.S. Senate apologized on Saturday for comments he made about Barack Obama’s race during the 2008 presidential bid.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described then-Sen. Barack Obama as “light skinned†and “with no Negro dialect.†Obama is the nation’s first African-American president.
The cover of Golf Digest’s now-infamous “10 Tips Obama Can Take From Tiger” issue was announced on the Web about five minutes before Woods’ career-altering misadventures at the end of November. But when I finally saw the issue on the newsstand around Christmastime, it occurred to me that it may be a miniature — albeit entirely unintended — version of “Bobos In Paradise”, “The Preppie Handbook”, and other books that marked mammoth elite overreach and smugness…
With all the crying about what the left has inherited from Bush, there is one thing I do wish y’all had “inherited”. A desire to get rid of the “soft bigotry of lowered expectations.†Instead, you foment it. You exclaim in amazement “Oh, look! He sure does talk purty! For a black guy and all.†How vile. It also means that your race card is no longer accepted. Having you attempt to use a race card would be like Al Gore attempting to use a bitter, old tool card; utterly laughable
I’m having a minor mid-life crisis. I’ve been a practicing lawyer for almost 23 years now. I’m quite good at what I do, but I hate it. And lately, it’s been getting harder and harder to flog myself into getting the work done and meeting the deadlines. (Although I should assure any current or potential […]
One of the defining features of Islam is its obsession with sex. Every rule regarding women is based upon a driving need to control their sexuality. They are married off as children, sequestered, dressed in clothes that rob them of any hint of femininity, deprived of any opportunities to function outside the reproductive sphere, and […]
(I know William already posted the story, but allow me a second to rant…) Get ready folks because this is the world of terrorist coddling that Barack Obama is setting up for us from now on. A left-wing, multicultural-loving, half-wit federal judge has sided with those who would kill us all by throwing out most […]
