Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
This is an extraordinary 9+ minute video. Carve out the time to watch it. But remember: it’s not all Obama’s fault. The American people elected this man. They share the blame and the responsibility: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WK_6dzE7bxs[/youtube] Hat tip: Lulu

Today, it’s the color of the man who dreamed of being America’s Leftist king: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQj-xBH30-I[/youtube] Is anybody else as creeped out by that video as I am? And another question, which has nothing to do with unions — Do you get the
Continue readingI’m so upset about what happened at the UN today, I can’t speak (or write). Hot Air explains what happened: after casting a veto against the Security Council’s vote on Israeli settlements, the U.S.’s Ambassador, Susan Rice, launched into a vitriolic attack that would have come easily from the lips
Continue readingIf you want a good lesson in the depth, breadth and virulence of Muslim antisemitism, Andrew Bostom provides it. Then think long and hard about the fact that the current administration is siding with these Muslims at the United Nations. I’m still struggling to come to terms with the appalling
Continue readingIt’s not often I get the pleasure of laughing out loud when I read a “serious” political piece, especially one from an Obama acolyte, but I have to admit that this one completely lifted my mood. The author, David Kendall, at heart, seems to be an honest soul because he
Continue readingFor two and a half years, Jack Cahill has been meticulously deconstructing the books published under Obama’s name, showing that it is highly unlikely that Obama wrote them. I was never surprised. Off teleprompter, Obama is singularly, not just inarticulate, but ugly in his speech. That never jived with the
Continue readingI was remarkably silent on Egypt. The situation was too fluid for me to grab a hold of. I knew only that Obama’s policy would follow whoever seemed likely to win, since he will always hew to the strong man. Now that it’s over, I was thinking of writing about
Continue readingLet’s think about Israel from the Israeli viewpoint for a minute, shall we? It is, by any standards, an extremely small country. Within its own borders, it is a sophisticated Western-style nation that leads the world in scientific innovation. Its political system is a parliamentary style democratic republic. Although its
Continue readingI find amusing Oprah’s insistence that Obama is entitled to respect because he’s struggling through a learning curve. First, while there is always respect for the office, the man has to earn it. Second, his learning curve is the whole problem. Those of us who opposed Obama did so, not
Continue readingWhen I was six years old, within a few short months, I went from having perfect vision to being extremely nearsighted. I was discussing that fact with a friend today, and noted that I have no memory of ever having seen well without help from glasses or contacts. This comment
Continue readingWhen I read that the Obama administration is good with having the Muslim Brotherhood on board in Egypt, because it’s really not such a bad organization, I keep thinking of 1930’s rationalizations about Mussolini: He made the trains run on time. Surely our standards of decency are higher than that?
Continue reading1. Faced with a popular revolt of the type we’re seeing in Egypt, can an American president make a difference? My sense is that, while we’re certainly not going to drop bombs, the American president (any president, not just Obama) is such a vast presence that both his silence and
Continue readingI was going to open this post with a snarky line about whether anybody with even marginal intelligence expected a 40-something community activist to have the necessary chops to deal with an international crisis of the type currently unfolding in Egypt. Indeed, I think I still will: Does anybody with
Continue readingThe MSM never made any secret of the fact that it loathed Ronald Reagan. Back in the 1980s, as an unthinking liberal, I too loathed Reagan. The MSM’s unrelenting hostility to Reagan allowed me to feel that my views about the man were correct and that I was indeed an
