The media is making hay of the pedophilia scandal involving the Catholic Church. I think that Leftists see issue this as the single brick, down at the bottom of the wall, that, if pulled at hard enough, will bring the whole edifice tumbling down. Just as Jews are persecuted because they symbolize justice (whether or [...]

Readers of my blog know that one of my personal bête noires is liberal indoctrination in public schools. I blog about it frequently. My last outing on that subject was here, and I’ll get back to that in a little bit. First, though, I’d like you to see how one public school teacher saw fit [...]

Although the Bay Area has a fierce core of conservatives, it is certainly not a bastion of the Tea Party movement. Many of us, like butterflies newly released from a chrysalis, are for the first time delicately flapping the wings of our ideology. We’re not out on the streets in vast numbers, although the success [...]

UPDATE: Thanks to the amazing power of the internet, a reliable source has let me know that this is a rumor, pure and simple. No truth to it. I’m leaving this post here, however, just in case anyone follows up on it, so that there is no confusion about the truth (this) and the rumor [...]

If you have the stomach for it this Easter day, check out Zo’s video, in which he reads from the hate mail he gets from liberals angry at him for being a “race traitor.” It’s stomach churning stuff. Zo’s ability to handle with aplomb this vitriol just confirms what I realized the very first time [...]

One of the things I love about Andrew Breitbart is that he’s willing to challenge the bluffs and cons emanating from the Left. While the Republican establishment was apologizing for the alleged claim that Tea Partiers hurled the “n-word,” Breitbart figured out that the absence of footage was significant — especially since the Black Caucus [...]

Much as been written by many great writers in the past few days about Obama’s extraordinary foreign policy, one that sees him crudely alienating old allies, while pandering to every totalitarian leader who comes along. Mark Steyn sees Obama’s approach as part of a larger Leftist syndrome, inflated by Obama’s cold, self-centered personality: As to [...]

I’ve been trying for several hours now to read enough, think enough, and write enough to put together a post, but it’s now happening — and now I’m leaving home for the rest of the afternoon and early evening. So here it is: THE OPEN THREAD. I know you all can do better than I!

[As you might have noticed, I'm updating this as I go, with new links, and videos, added at the bottom of this post.] It’s dripping today, weather I like, but that I also find slightly enervating. My instincts are to grab my dog, a book and some chocolate, and to hunker down in a comfy [...]

When I was in high school, I was in a very bad car accident. While traveling at 70 miles an hour over an overpass, the car I was in spun out of control and flipped off the side of the freeway, ending up upside-down some 20 feet below. Had the car landed a few feet [...]

Horrified by the fact that the American people are not dancing in the streets now that Obama Care is the law of the land, the Left is doing what it does best: tarring and feathering anyone who stands in its way. The current libel is that people who oppose Obama Care are racist. These foaming-at-the-mouth [...]

What I’m reading is this week’s group of Watcher’s Council submissions and why I recommend them is that they hit the ball out of the park, again and again and again. I always says that the submissions are good, because they always are, but this week is exceptional: Council Submissions The Colossus of Rhodey – [...]

Yes, you’ve already seen this video of Rep. Hank Johnson from Georgia (Cynthia McKinney’s old district), but I’m going to show it again, if for no other reason than to appreciate the Admiral’s incredible polite restraint. An officer and a gentleman, that’s for sure: Many have noted that Rep. Johnson is ill, which may account, [...]

Shortly after I started practicing law, the California State Bar decided mandated that all lawyers must comply with annual “Minimum Continuing Legal Education” (“MCLE”) requirement. I was instantly incensed, because it was immediately obvious to me that this had nothing to do with improving the practice of law and everything to do with providing a [...]
