Pitbull — Middle aged suburban mom loves the music and respects the man

Tweet It’s a standing joke in our family that Mom — middle-aged suburban housewife that I am — really, really likes Pitbull.  I love the way he does mash-ups of classic songs from the 50s through the 80s, and I like his cheerful, self-deprecating rap.  He’s on my playlist, and I don’t care if the [...]

Yes, Obama is a Marxist, but the MSM has blunted America’s ability to care

Tweet At YID with LID, you get to see proof of something we all knew intuitively:  Obama is now and long has been a Marxist. The problem is that this news, which ought to be staggering, doesn’t matter.  Even if one strips away the MSM’s reflexive denial about Obama’s Marxism, the fact that he is [...]

Yes, #OWS is antisemitic. Bill Whittle explains why. And I explain why there is no 99%.

Tweet This is as pithy a summary as any I’ve seen about the antisemitism permeating Occupy Wall Street, and binding together the Left, the Islamists, and the White Supremacists: (If the video isn’t showing up, watch here.) By the way, why is no one commenting on the fact that the so-called 99% are not a [...]

Yet another Tom Lehrer song proves to be prescient

Tweet I blogged the other day that Tom Lehrer’s MLF Lullaby, although about Germany, worked well with Islam in the starring role.  It turns out that Tom Leher was prescient about folk songs too.  First, the New York Times story: When one of Cuba’s best-known musicians landed in the United States, his first appearance was [...]

The New York Times takes off the mask

Tweet This morning, Mr. Bookworm asked me “Who is Charles Freeman?”  Because he reads only the Times, he’d never heard of him before today.  I gave a brief summary of Freeman’s views re China, the Middle East and 9/11, as well as the fact that he lives in Saudi and Chinese pockets financially.  Mr. Bookworm [...]

Random thoughts about Obama *UPDATED*

Tweet Obama made much of the fact that his father was an African immigrant from a small village with goats (or something like that).  Few people have made anything of the flip side of that little bit of bio, which is the fact that the first black president has no connection to America’s slave culture.  [...]

The upside of technology

Tweet It’s often frightening to see how terrorists use technology against freedom. It’s therefore uplifting and refreshing to see people using technology to advance freedom. The New York Times, which has always been dizzyingly respectful of Castro, has pulled a fast U-turn and written a very good article about young people using technology to circumvent [...]

Thumbing our noses at tyrants

Tweet One of the things that puts the Kumbi-ya crowd into an absolute frenzy is President Bush’s refusal to deal directly with murderous dictators. Forgetting the example set by Neville “Peace in Our Time” Chamberlain, this crowd is certain that, if they can just wrest a smile from someone evil, they’ll be halfway to ending [...]
