They lie to us with a straight face, and Press collaborates with this environmental thug to be polite. This is the liberal problem in a nutshell: we are civil to barbarians, when they only USE our civility to accomplish their (barbaric) ends. They DEPEND on it, and we oblige them. Continue reading →

Remember, we started this experiment in democracy over 230 years ago, and most of the new democracies on Earth (and there was a flowering of them in the 1990s) look to us for their cues. From Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe refusing to step down after an electoral defeat to the strange electoral shenanigans in Mexico, all of these can be laid directly at our feet. They believed in democracy, and we showed them how to pervert it. Continue reading →

There is an astonishingly juvenile, unprofessional and idiotic article today in the Washington Post by Dana Milbank. The Post announced yesterday that they were closing down their standalone BOOK WORLD section (which I used to write for), which is sad, … Continue reading →

Now, if I weren’t in reruns today, I’d write a long post about how the Republiklan haters (Steyn, Malkin, LGF, et al) have taken the long walk off the short pier of sanity into the deep waters of idiot psychosis; … Continue reading →

Mystery of Life Undeniable Truth #116: Horny makes you stupid.

And so, too, finding out about it makes other people stupid, too.
The sex scandal was the “story” — in quotes because they really WEREN’T interested in the story. They were interested only in the sex… Continue reading →

I am writing about the “sex scandal” enveloping Portland, Oregon mayor Sam Adams. Today’s post was well under way, until I realized that there was something very important that you need to understand BEFORE I tell you what is going … Continue reading →

This is not a sideshow. This is important, and I am gratified at the result. It bespeaks in the most profound manner possible, a return to the rule of law. No man is above the law, is its essence, and the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court and the President of the United States of America mutually recognized and honored the Constitution, Article II. Section I, which I learned by heart in high school, in Lt. Aguilera’s Citizenship (or, Civics) class. Continue reading →
