Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I mentioned in an earlier post that Michelle Malkin has excellent coverage about the New York Times'/LA Times' decision to blab intelligence information to Al Qaeda and its fellow travelers. Malkin included in that coverage several WWII posters that were created to warn people to keep their mouths shut for
Continue readingBy the way, I'm very aware of the New York Times' and the LA Times' most recent articles exposing intelligence information being used to track down terrorists. I don't have any great insights to add: In my mind, it's not news to report intelligence information during a time of war,
Continue readingI was reading the latest Greenhouse news report (earth hotter than it's been 400 years), and was all prepared to blog about that. Then, I discovered that my WordPress was down. So, I read around a bit more and discovered that The Anchoress has already said what I planned to
Continue readingBurt Prelutsky agrees with Ann Coulter's underlying point, which is that the Left likes to hide behind people who, through sheer sad and bad luck, lost their loved ones in the course of a well-publicized event, whether 9/11, the Iraq war, or Al-Zarqawi's sadism. He then has this to say:
Continue readingThe Arab countries forcibly evicted their Jewish populations, so as to seize their property and purify their countries from the "stain" of Judiasm. Israel is also asking one of its Arab citizens to leave, but for a very different reason: In a few weeks Ismail Khaldi, a 35-year old Bedouin
Continue readingCan anyone familiar with human physiology explain this one to me: When I cut my hands (cooking or cleaning, or something), it's no big deal; when I get a cut on my feet (today my daughter's cleets took off most of one of my toenails), I start to black out.
Continue readingI don't have time to blog right now but, in any event, why settle for margarine when you can have butter? Yes, folks, there's a wonderful Mark Steyn column to be had, and it should satisfy all your daily reading cravings. UPDATE: I'm so sorry for misleading those of you
Continue readingWhile the MSM has been very, very interested lately in killers, someone is remembering victims — 9/11 victims to be precise. D.Challener Roe set up a blog called 2,996, which is the number of people who died on 9/11. Here, I'll let him explain his plan: 2,996 is a tribute
Continue readingI'm no huge fan of the death penalty. I think the risks of convicting the wrong man are pretty darn high. There's also no doubt that, at certain times and in certain places, African-American men have disproportionately borne the risk of getting the death penalty. It's also a very expensive
Continue readingNewsweek dove in with the best of them last week to smear the Marines regarding Haditha. Its readers, apparently, weren't buying it: Readers, while deeply troubled by our June 12 report on the alleged civilian massacre in Haditha, overwhelmingly chose to stand by the Marines. One said, "These Marines deserve
Continue readingMy post on the Geneva Convention got two great comments from Patrick about the phrase "cycle of violence." Be sure to check them out. I seem to have cycles on the brain today. I was driving home from a meeting, struggling to share a narrow road with three bicyclists. To
Continue readingFor those on the Left atwitter about the fact that George Bush doesn't feel obligated to extend to Islamofascist terrorists (a) any rights under our Constitution; (b) any rights according to our own military men/women under a court martial; or (c) even the full panoply of rights accorded signatories to
Continue readingMany years ago, I had a good laugh watching two young men, dressed in faultless gang attire, run for a bus. The funny part was that, as they ran, their lowrider pants get lower and lower. One of them eventually ended with his pants around his ankles. Undaunted, with the
Continue readingI'm actually being a bit generous using the world "science" here, and I only use it because the newspaper article I'm going to savage uses the word — in the title of the article, no less. In fact, this is pseudo science being bent to make a political point: Bush
Continue readingMy vote for best song title ever (with a pretty damn good song attached): "How could you believe me when I said I love you when you know I've been a liar all my life," from the 1951 movie, Royal Wedding. Take a minute to check out the lyrics from
