Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
We’re getting used to the fact that, no matter what we say or do, we’re racist. Want to shrink government? You’re racist. Want stronger border security? You’re racist. Think Obama is so inept even Carter looks good by comparison? You’re racist. A candidate in England, though, has taken the name

Continue readingI’ve been a practicing lawyer for more than twenty years. My legal briefs are pretty much like my blog writing: I develop an argument, and support it with facts (or, in the case of a legal brief, legal cites) that are directly on point. Often, to show my honesty to

Continue readingSince my some of my last posts were about principles and morality, and the way in which they advance and support civilized, wealthy cultures, it seemed appropriate to wrap up that series with Andrew Klavan’s video explaining how to abandon those principles when necessary (or when elected to Congress, whichever

Each one shall be put to death for his own sin.” — Deuteronomy, 24:16. One of the things that always struck me as bizarre about old-fashioned Christian antisemitism

Obama was asked mildly hard questions, got defensive and, when he thought he was off mike, chastised the reporting for daring to do anything but grovel before him. Daniel Henninger, in today’s Wall Street Journal, looks as

I think it’s a bit racy for the taxpayer’s dime (I’d give it a PG-13, almost shading into R), but it’s clever and funny too: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxHzhNajwZU[/youtube]

The fact is, not everyone can dance, but if you like to dance, just go out and have fun! That’s what I do. Dancing is one of my favorite activities and to heck with

They spent their working days inhaling mercury and absorbing it through their skin. It attacked their nervous systems and left

Like Mark Steyn, Evan Sayet exudes a rare combination of
