Equality to Liberals = Equality of Outcome
2009-09-02 07:00:00 As per my last post, as I read the New York Times yesterday, I caught something which gets at the essence of conservative and liberal (using those terms in their contemporary, not classical context) attitudes toward discrimination: . . . the Obama administration is planning a major revival of high-impact civil rights enforcement against policies, in ...

The Genuine Outrage of Obamacare Opponents
2009-09-02 05:52:00 There are days when I really miss reading a “dead-tree” newspaper, sipping coffee as I read the news. Yesterday, after an early morning hike with my Dad and his friends to celebrate his birthday, I did just that, alternating between the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. The former had a number of interesting ... More About: Genuine
Has Any Previous President Ever Addressed Schoolchildren . . .
2009-09-02 03:00:00 . . . with a special address just to them on September 8 and provided guidelines on how teachers should discuss his remarks with students? Blogger Jim Hoft calls this “unprecedented.” It sounds like he’s right, but is he? Are you aware of any of his predecessors delivering a national address to our nation’s schoolchildren? Did, say, ...

The Democrats? Rangel Test
2009-09-01 21:48:00 Charles Rangel, Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, is not the only congressional Democrat with ethics issues. Indeed, the list of corrupt Democrats in 2009 rivals that of corrupt Republicans three years previously when the-then minority party ousted the then-majority on the basis of the Republicans’ (supposed) “culture of corruption.” Upon her party’s winning ...

Whining about Being Left Out is Not a Solution to Revitalizing GOP
2009-09-01 18:04:00 I read two posts yesterday which reminded me of a notion I’d been pondering for some time. Here’s the idea in a nutshell: While the Democrats continue to lose favor with the American people as they propose increased government spending and regulation as the solution to every problem, the GOP (while taking some important strides ...

Why Doesn?t He Just Freeze Federal Workers? Salaries?
2009-09-01 06:23:00 I have lost count of the number of friends and acquaintances who work in the private sector who have told metheir employer has either cut their pay or frozen their salaries to avoid laying off (them and/or) their co-workers. And now, the President, is asking “federal workers to sacrifice” by cutting their pay increase by 0.4 percent: Citing ... More About: Workers , Freeze
Obama?s False Assumption:That by power of his presence,he could make Americ
2009-09-01 06:07:00 Perhaps Barack Obama ’s biggest failure as President was (as I have argued before) the same as George H.W. Bush’s: he misread his mandate. The incumbent accelerated his fall from grace by so quickly reversing course on so many of the campaign promises he made which helped secure his support among moderate voters. And there’s something else. He ... More About: Freedom , Power , Presence , Make
Olbermann, one of many Obama Groupies Who ?Cannot Grasp Nuances of Sarcasm?
2009-09-01 02:18:00 As per my last post, seems the hatred coming from the left is so close to the mainstream that it oozes from the website of the leader of the Democratic Party. Now, someone blogging there is calling us “heirs of bin Laden” for opposing the President’s health care plan. Jim Hoft links to a screed there, ...

Left-wing hatred closer to mainstream of ?progressive? movement than is tha
2009-09-01 01:35:00 Had an interesting exchange with Allen, (AKA the Angry Bear) another LA blogger I discovered through an Instalink. Allen was debating whether or not to buy Shadow Complex, a new video game, created in cooperation with Orson Scott Card, a devout Mormon who has actively worked to block state recognition of same-sex marriages.

Teabagger Slur Discredits Those Who Use It
2009-08-31 21:46:00 I have long believed that those who use the “tea bag” smear (or any one of its variants) to describe those protesting the Obama Administration’s big spending/big government policies automatically discredit themselves as unable to comment honestly on our movement. That term, a sexual slur, shows they would rather deride us than engage with our ...

Democrats Try to Save Corrupt Committee Chairman?!?!?
2009-08-30 16:05:00 Wait a second, what happened to that new era of politics the President promised in his successful campaign for his current office? Hmm. . . and didn’t Nancy Pelosi and her Democrats in 2006 run against the Republicans’ “Culture of Corruption” as she dubbed it. Indeed, after her party captured Congress that fall, she promised ...

Is this what they call Oil for Blood?
2009-08-30 07:58:00 LOCKERBIE BOMBER ?set free for oil.? UPDATE from Bruce (GayPatriot): So it is now clear that UK PM Gordon Brown lied.

An aberration or sign of things to come?
2009-08-30 07:36:00 No sooner had I typed that I was posting my last piece, “perhaps more to provide fodder for commentary than anything else,” than I realized something I could blog on which would require little effort on my part and provide such fodder for our readers, some of whom I know delight in using our comments ...

?I can?t blog on everything.?
2009-08-30 07:18:00 If I had a moment and were not on vacation, I’d find the post I wrote recently where I noted that one of the most frequent criticisms I receive is that I don’t address issues others bloggers are addressing. Look, there are so many things I want to blog about. In my various notebooks, I have ... More About: Travel , Blogging , Random Thoughts , Blog

Will Rachel Maddow Call Communications Workers of America Astroturfers?

If you can?t find evidence of Obamacare Opponents Committing Violent Acts,
2009-08-26 16:45:00 Not even two weeks ago, I dashed out a quick post, wondering if any left-wing blogs had covered the report of a Mississippi man “pleading guilty to posing as white supremacist on Facebook.“ Dyron L.

Much Easier to be a Blogger in Opposition
2009-08-25 23:14:00 One of the things I’ve discovered contrasting the past seven months to my first four years blogging is that it’s much easier to blog in opposition to the party in power than in support of the incumbent Administration (especially when you’re a small government-type defending a President named Bush). Simply put, political leaders don’t live up ... More About: Blogger , Blogging , Random Thoughts

Barack Obama: The Great Divider
2009-08-25 09:40:00 Abraham Lincoln was “the Great Emancipator,” Ronald Reagan, the “Great Communicator,” and now, I believe, we’ve found a sobriquet that defines their current successor’s greatness. Barack Obama is the “Great Divider” (though some might dub him the “Great Decieiver”). Though he campaigned as a unifier, bridging appeals to liberals (promising more government spending) with appeals to ...

2009-08-25 08:14:00 There are some themes I cannot repeat often enough on this blog, on being the basic operating assumptions of all too many (but fortunately not all) modern American liberals, that is, that all conservatives are whackjobs and that any deviation from their party line reeks of heresy and must be punished.
