What I’m reading today from the Watcher’s Council
Neither snow nor sleet, nor any of the other various bugaboos that seem to be bringing the U.S. Postal system to its knees, will stop the Watcher’s Council from its appointed voting. I’m reading the following very good stuff today: Council Submissions Simply Jews – The Assassination Conundrum The Noisy

The United States Navy turned 236 years old today. Those of us who love the Navy (and you can help show that love with a Navy League membership), will certainly join me in wishing the United States Navy a very Happy Birthday!

Yesterday, I asked what Valerie Jarrett would tell Obama to do now that the administration, in an effort to save Holder’s delicate derriere from the Fast & Furious fallout, has gone public with a nefarious Iranian plot, one that is tantamount to a declaration of war, that Obama already knew

Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’ into the future. No wonder I forgot to post the results from last week’s Watcher’s Council vote: Council Winners First place with 2 1/3 votes! The Razor––How Taking the Black Vote For Granted Is Racist Second place with 2 votes – Joshuapundit-How Obama Got Around

Maybe it’s Americans’ innate capitalist instinct — the need to commercialize everything — that is our true bulwark against a Russian or French style revolution. Sadly, though, it’s that same acquisitive quality, the one that sees most American young people grow up as Veruca Salt, that encourages the temporary ravages
Continue readingHow will Valerie Jarrett tell Obama to handle this one?
Iranian agent caught on U.S. soil plotting terrorist attacks. Obama, I’m sure, is in a dither. What will Valerie Jarrett, who is currently about the only person he’ll talk to, tell him to do?
Continue readingWhen math and magic come together
We’ve been reading a lot about Republican movie habits versus Democrat movie habits. It turns out, though, that there is an even simpler way to figure out what movies people will like. Some basic math will magically determine your favorite movie out of a list of 17 movies. It’s true.

I was dismayed when I heard that Mayor Bloomberg has assured the #OccupyWallStreet protesters that they won’t be harassed in his city. I’ve since concluded that, wittingly or not, this was a wise decision on his part. If Bloomberg brings out even more pepper spray, or if he adds in

A friend (he knows who he is) emailed me the following information. It speaks of a past generation of heroes, but I look at today’s military, and know that our youth offers better than the decadent, drugged-out, hypersexualized wretches on Wall Street: Hanoi Hilton, Room 7 Roster : An interesting

The quality of the subtitling is a bit primitive, but the translation is spot on the money: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veGO0P0LBrw[/youtube] Hat tip: Sadie

This morning, I heard two men talking. In response to something the first man said, the second said, “Trust, but verify.” The first man replied, “That’s one of the few smart things Ronald Reagan said.” The second man answered, “It’s the only smart thing Reagan said.” Putting aside all the

This is what Gov. Jerry Brown of California signed yesterday: The governor signed a measure allowing children as young as 12 to seek prevention treatment, such as vaccinations, for sexually transmitted diseases such as HPV without parental consent. And this is also what he signed yesterday: Gov. Jerry Brown announced

FDR made hay out of the shanty towns that sprang up under Hoover’s administration as suddenly homeless Americans tried to cope. Obama’s America is a bit different: here, we have the voluntary homeless, people who happily embrace a homeless, and incredibly dirty, lifestyle to advance their savior’s political cause. My

Item: At the Occupy Wall Street protest, one of the 99% is spotted leaving his mark on a New York City police car: Item: During the height of the Bush-era anti-war riots, one of the protesters was photographed as he proudly left his own personal offering to a smoldering American
