Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Given how well the debate seems to have gone (yay!), I thought I’d dig out an Abba song to celebrate her wonderful energy and forward momentum, the way some people love her and some hate her, and even her occasional slip-ups. (As you may all have figured out, Abba is
Continue readingI haven’t watched the debate yet. I’ve been doing volunteer work (yes, we selfish conservatives sometimes give generously of our time), getting food, preparing dinner, and wrapping up a brief that needs to be filed tomorrow. What I thought I’d do, therefore, is reprint here a prediction I made about
Continue readingI really need to take a day off from all this. I’m leaving you with a silly cheer infusion (and a chance to bone up on your pig Latin): [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xTTWHMCXdg[/youtube]
Continue readingDepressed today. Decided to do a risk assessment of possible (and impossible) and likely (and unlikely) outcomes. Feel free to chime in. McCain & Palin win and Republicans eke out a majority in Congress: Impossible. McCain & Palin win and Democrats retain control over Congress: Less and less likely. Obama
Continue readingOnce again, Council members (moi-self included) have labored mightily to bring you brilliant, gem-like, insightful writing from all over the blogosphere — and, amazingly enough, I’m not even exaggerating when I use those adjectives. I’ve skimmed some of the selections already and can tell you that, as the world churns
Continue readingWhat do I get? I get why people are voting Democrat. It’s all explained in this clever little film: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AU-EpU13K_o[/youtube] And be sure to visit VerticalBlu’s website, if for no other reason than to show that a company that manages to put together a great little video like that deserves
Continue readingIt was only yesterday that the creepy video emerged from Hollywood showing kids singing a song of worship to the golden world that will emerge when Obama ascends to the White House. In connection with that video, I noted that the indoctrination of children reminded me very strongly of the
Continue readingDean Barnett caught Obama in a flip-flop that took a mere eight days to go from flip to flop. Will the average American see it too? Will he care?
Continue readingLet’s see if I understand this correctly: Gwen Ifill, who is moderating tomorrow night’s VP debate, forgot to tell anyone (including the McCain campaign) that (a) she is totally in the tank for Obama and (b) that she stands to make a great deal of money if he wins, and
Continue readingA righteous Andrew McCarthey puts together in a single place what astute observers have long known: Obama is an active enemy of Free Speech. Using tried and true Leftist tactics, including coopting sympathetic officials in the current administration, Obama and his team are doing everything they can to stifle speech.
Continue readingWhat’s bizarre and depressing about Condell’s biting satire is that there is only a single exaggeration in the whole thing. Everything else is just a statement of facts: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ox2-Wun2dIg[/youtube] UPDATE: YouTube deleted the video — apparently it hurt the Saudi’s feelings. Fortunately, you can still see it here.
Continue readingThe polls reveal that “decideds” are swinging steadily to Obama (although Lord alone knows why), but that there are still a lot of undecideds out there. I have a hard time comprehending the whole undecided thing in this race. The candidates are not cut from the same cloth but, instead,
