TMZ, the celebrity gossip site, has taken a break from posting about Britney’s crotch shots, celebrity sex tapes, fashion scandals, and American Idol to opine about taxes and the military. Here’s what they had to say: Former “Bachelor” bachelor Andy Baldwin just got back from the island of Palau in the South Pacific — not […]

My buddy Skye asked me to come on her internet radio show, The Victory Hour, to talk about blogging while female for an hour or so, from 5:30 PM EST to 6:30 PM EST. Yes, that’s right, ladies, Skye looked all over the blogosphere and chose me to represent you on the air…snort, snort. What […]

Until then, one of the many ex-Mr. Jane Fondas runs off his mouth in the Nation… That opening paragraph sets the tone for the rest: oddly chosen scare quotes, plenty of question marks, and plenty of self-obsession. Those first-person pronouns are real. Musing upon an old photo of himself, Hayden can’t resist claiming, for example, […]

Radical Islam wants to take over the world, Toronto Muslims run “welfare harem” scams and their colleagues around the nation try to silence Ezra Levant and Mark Steyn. But fear not: the Canadian Left is oh-so-bravely fighting “the real enemy” — two dozen illiterate bald dudes in ugly t-shirts. (Kathy Shaidle blogs daily at FiveFeetOfFury.com, […]

“There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences.” — P.J. O’Rourke We have gotten to a point in our society where people can pursue courses of action that we know, they know, […]

Question: “I’d like to know what you consider to be the positives and negatives of McCain relative to the issues. I’ve done this list over and over and his negatives outweigh his positives for me; the only mitigating factor is when you measure him against Hillary or Obama. So, how much compromise on your values […]

Question: “A few weeks ago, on Q&A #85, you made the point that the Republican primary system had some flaws. What are the flaws, and what do you think we can do to address them?

Question: “I have been wondering who caused those videos of Jeremish Wright preaching anti-Americanism and race hatred to come out. Media outlets talk about them as though they just spontaneously appeared from nowhere, saying they “surfaced” on the internet. Do you think someone deliberately pushed them out to the MSM — and by “someone” I […]

“The white “resentment” that Obama speaks of does not primarily come from direct effects of affirmative action or the welfare state. It comes from the societal message that the majority of white people, who have had no part in oppressing anyone, are asked again and again and again to take responsibility for ills they did […]

Question: “Do you think that if Hillary ends up with the nomination as a result of the race battle raging within the Democrats, it just begs for McCain to select one of the several possible black Republicans for his VP? Would there ever be a better opportunity to demographically eradicate the Dems?” — Mike_M Answer: […]

Question: “What does Hawkins think about this subject: I am usually a pretty average hybrid libertarian-conservative about things, but the hardest thing for me to reconcile with that (especially when talking to the other side) is land use and parkland. I can’t picture too many of the great parks (Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Glacier) having arisen […]

Chris Matthews did a little dancing on the Ellen show and ended it by copping a feel off of Ellen and almost knocking her down, On the other hand, as bad as Matthews was there, he is still a better dancer than David Gregory, Of course, neither of them is quite as good as Barack […]

My buddy Amanda Carpenter came across this “feminist pendant”… That’s not exactly a, “Wow, that looks so pretty I want to hang it around my neck” pendant, right? You are definitely trying to send a message when you wear it. But, what message? On the page that displays the jewelry, it says, “Wear your hanger […]

The Wicked Witch of New York is doing the groundwork to make sure that she gets the delegates she earned from her “victory” in Michigan, Democrat Hillary Clinton pressed on Wednesday for a new vote in Michigan that could be crucial to her aspirations in the tight battle with Barack Obama to be the party’s […]

There have been people predicting that the Jeremiah Wright scandal would destroy Obama’s campaign. Although that may turn out to be true, it still seems like a bit too much of a presumption to make. Instead, I would compare this to Hillary’s horrible flub of a “Driver’s Licenses For Illegals” question at a debate. It […]

“I used to give Nancy Pelosi benefit of the doubt, but I don’t think she’ll be happy until we have a Rwanda-like genocide (in Iraq). Pelosi is perhaps the worst example of a liberal racist: She sees Iraqis as nothing more than a template upon which to fight a partisan battle. It really is disgraceful.” […]

Warning: This features Obama’s pastor speaking from the pulpit, so there is some bad language involved. Hat tip to GOP Bloggers for the video.

Barack Obama’s speech yesterday was the same old, same old being marketed as something radically new and different. But, honest question: the rhetoric may have changed, but where’s the real difference? For example, Barack Obama strongly condemned some of the recent, racist, anti-American comments that his spiritual mentor, Jeremiah Wright, made. That’s good. But, did […]

Last week, I was talking with one my friends on the phone and she was telling me how much she hated the idea of men having their wives sign pre-nuptial agreements. That’s because, in her mind, the agreements were a sign that the man doesn’t view the marriage as permanent. But, au contraire, I told […]

From the Washington Times, “Ron Paul says the legions of newcomers his presidential campaign brought to the Republican Party are getting the cold shoulder from John McCain and from the party. The Texas congressman says neither he nor his supporters have heard from Mr. McCain or Republican National Committee Chairman Mike Duncan since March 4, […]

“So, here’s question; if you knew a year ago that (Wright) was saying things so anti-American, so dishonest, so hateful, that you were going to have to disown him, then…why did you only disown him when it became such a big political issue? And if you thought what he was saying was false and wrong […]

The hopes of Democratic Party leaders to solve the delegate impasses in Florida and Michigan have been dashed, as technicalities have proven impossible to overcome. The AP reports that, “Facing strong opposition, Florida Democrats on Monday abandoned plans to hold a do-over presidential primary with a mail-in vote and threw the delegate dispute into the […]
