Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Interesting times make for interesting posts. So it’s another great week at the Watcher’s Council: Council Submissions The Noisy Room – Turning Red – Shedding the White and Blue The Colossus of Rhodey – “The Big Lie” was … a big lie New Zeal – Mark Hatfield: Leftist Oregon Senator
Continue readingWhat do you all think of the Gardasil leviathan attached to Perry? Bachmann went off the deep end when she said that the vaccination causes mental retardation, but I know there are plenty of conservatives (Michelle Malkin is a good example) who think that Perry’s attempted Gardasil legislation makes him
Continue readingI’m a very casual person. My children’s young friends are allowed to call me by my first name. I’m invariably dressed in jeans or yoga pants. I wear high heels about five times a year, and panty hose exactly that often. We dine off of melamine plates and drink from
Continue readingPro-Palestinian putzes have consistently claimed that if Israel would just bend a little more, and still a little more, then there would be peace in the Middle East. The execrable President Carter (I always affix that adjective to this loathsome human being) now claims that he’s being forced to urge
Continue readingIn a skinny-obsessed society, it’s interesting to read about a woman whose love life has completely dried up now that she’s skinny. As a morbidly obese person, she attracted men who find big women, and women who eat, appealing. I would suspect her of just trying to get attention were
Continue readingMe, at Pajamas Media: I challenge you to find a news report with more layers, all of them misleading, than an ostensibly unbiased San Francisco Chronicle “news” article about a canceled art exhibition at the Museum of Children’s Art in Oakland, California. The story’s core is uncomplicated: The museum agreed with
Continue readingI’ve never eaten at Outback Steakhouse, both because I’m the only one in the family who likes red meat (figures, doesn’t it?) and because I don’t think there are any Outbacks convenient to my house. Nevertheless I have the warm-fuzzies when I think of the place. Read here to find
Continue readingApparently the passions that burned in voters’ breasts in 2010 have yet to burn themselves out in 2011. In a very Jewish district (Jews! The Democrat stalwarts!) Republican Bob Turner took over Anthony Weiner’s seat (although I hope he disinfects it well before he sits down on it). This election
Continue readingDo you have any spare change lying around? Yes? I thought you might. My dollar coins say “In God We Trust.” My dollar bills say “In God We Trust.” My quarters say “In God We Trust.” My dimes say “In God We Trust.” My nickels say “In God We Trust.”
Continue readingI haven’t forgotten that the Watcher’s Council’s latest round of votes came out on 9/9/11. I just hadn’t posted those results yet, an omission I correct today. Here they are: Council Winners *First place with 2 2/3 votes! Joshuapundit––The Secret Blue State Plan To Steal The 2012 Elections Second place

Continue readingA video is making the rounds. Taking during the flag folding portion of the 9/11 ceremonies, it shows Michelle Obama whispering in Barack’s ear. He responds with a nod and a suppressed grin. Here, see for yourself: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8W5xDBxE_0w[/youtube] I dislike Michelle Obama every bit as much as the next person,
Continue readingWhen I was in my local library the other day, I checked out The Complete Idiot’s Guide to WordPress. It made sense to do so. I’ve been blogging at WordPress for years now, so I may as well figure out what the heck I’m doing. Reading it demonstrated that I’ve
Continue readingVery funny, poignant, and pointed video, although I disagree with the final premise that “talking” with the neighbors will matter, since the neighbors don’t want to talk with you, they want to kill you: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVS92TXthg4[/youtube] Thank you, Sadie!
