Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Harvard prof. Joyce Chaplin’s tweet about the United State’s creation reveals that a Harvard history degree is an imprimatur of ignorance. My friend Wolf Howling isn’t near a computer, so I’m posting this for him: A degree from Harvard is useless at this point (and so is a degree from

If you’re the world’s strongest country, and you have a moral compass, it’s your duty to lead — although those who benefit should help pay. Obama refused to lead, boasting instead that he “led from behind.” His passivity let the dogs out — and then he piled on by feeding
Continue readingHistorical Facts For MLK Day I wrote a post in 2008 opining that, with Obama’s run for the presidency, we stood at a “crossroads” between the melting pot and MLK’s dream of a colorblind society on one hand and the ascendancy — if not permanency — of dystopian identity politics
Continue readingThe third Monday in January is annually set aside to honor Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., the most towering figure of our nation’s civil right’s movement. He delivered his most memorable, and arguably his most important speech, on August 28, 1963, standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in
Continue readingThe Hunger Games: DC Edition The confirmation hearing for Jeff Sessions began today. It was largely without fireworks — perhaps because Senator Sessions is not the evil, racist, misogynist, card carrying Grand Cyclops of the local Mobile chapter of the KKK (actually I think Sessions had him executed — I wait
Continue readingAttacking The Federal Bureaucracy One of the biggest challenges Trump and the Republicans will face is resistance from a federal bureaucracy composed almost entirely of progressives. There is no question that they will attempt to thwart Trump however they can, and as the law exists today, it is almost
Continue readingDay one of the new Congress and we are already seeing the good, the bad, and the ugly. The Good Senate puts Obamacare on the Reconciliation chopping block. Remember when, among Harry Reid’s many machinations, he used reconciliation to pass Obamacare following Scott Brown’s election to the Senate, thus destroying

Among his noteworthy suggestions: Leverage Hollywood Star Power: As you know, all normal Americans believe Hollywood stars are powerful role models who we should

When I grew up as Jewish girl in a Merry Christmas society, I said Merry Christmas right back. I’ve always loved Christmas in America. I love the songs, the lights, the colors, the good cheer, and I’ve always been grateful that I live in a country that happily and generously shares its

I’m back from my cruise, but not yet home, so this will be a smaller than usual round-up culling some of the best posts I’ve seen since recently about life in Trump’s America. Typing on a teeny keyboard slows me down…. The temperature in the Left’s fever swamps is rising..
Continue readingI followed some links to an eye opening post written by a physician and a man who seems far from a Trump supporter. It is a factual look at all of the allegations of racism and white power being made against Trump and, by extension, all who voted for him.

Why, just take a look at just a handful of these headlines: CNN: White nationalists see advocate in Steve Bannon who will hold Trump to his campaign promises. Forward.com: Will Steve Bannon Be

Hillary’s supporters are certain that Trump will be a Hitlerian nightmare of totalitarianism, with women, blacks, Hispanics, LGBTQ+-ers, and Muslims thrown into dire concentration camps somewhere in the middle of Kansas. Meanwhile, the less loopy #NeverTrump crowd is worried that Trump will be something along the lines of a Huey

This is it: the countdown to learning whether Obama will have been successful in fundamentally changing America or whether we can still resurrect something from the wreckage.
