Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Showing that he can go off teleprompter — and that he probably shouldn’t — Obama whined (pun intended) about the treatment he feels Republicans are meting out to him: “Some powerful interests who had been dominating the agenda in Washington for a very long time and they’re not always happy
Continue readingWhen I was in high school, I developed a trick to make myself look smarter. I learned the beginning of a few key quotations, all tied into the classical literary or historic canon. At appropriate moments in a conversation, I’d start the quote, and then quickly trail off, as if
Continue readingOn the one hand, we have a little man (figuratively speaking), sitting at a big, empty desk, speaking in deadened tones and flat words, as his eyes roam relentlessly back and forth between his teleprompter, desperately avoiding the single word that so aptly sums up American bravery and sacrifice: Victory!
Continue readingMessage from his Highness: For example, Obama said he did not watch any of Fox News Channel host Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally Saturday on the National Mall. “It’s not surprising that somebody like a Mr. Beck is able to stir up a certain portion of the country. That’s been
Continue readingAs y’all know, I think Obama is a man who does not believe in any God (except maybe himself), but who has frequently expressed a feeling of affinity with the Muslim world. An increasing number of Americans, however, do believe that Obama is a Muslim. Many reasons are given for
Continue readingAges ago, I can’t remember when, I was hunting around to find out if it was true that the Obama administration is refusing to sell arms to Israel. The information on that was inconclusive, so I abandoned that whole topic. What’s conclusive now is that, for boasting rights, the Obama
Continue readingI’m almost done going through my emails, but still have a few left. One of them brought to my attention Zombie’s post about Obama’s schiz0phrenia when it comes to the economy. As for me, I’m not so sure that Obama is pulled in two directions. I think he’s got a
Continue readingI had heard that, now that Obama placed the U.S. into the grossly misnamed UN Human Rights Council, the U.S. was suddenly obligated to file a self-report card. Although much of the report card is concerned with boasting about the Obama administration’s wonderfulness, it turns out that other parts are
Continue readingNarcissists are empty-vessels. Whether through nature or nurture, or both, their sense of self-worth never developed. To compensate, they built around that empty center a carapace of arrogance and, quite often, great accomplishment, but the hole is always there. Self-worth is never internal, it is always reflected. If the narcissist
Continue readingThe big news in the world of conservative publishing today is Stanley Kurtz’s Radical-in-Chief. It’s not actually out yet — that will happen on October 19 — but you can pre-order at the link I provided. According to the press release, the book proves completely that Obama, despite his denials,
Continue readingBy now, we’re all familiar with the Sherrod story. Andrew Breitbart was sent an edited video that made it look as if Sherrod was boasting to an NAACP gathering about denying government aid to white farmers. The audience laughed complicitly when Sherrod made that confession. Breitbart held onto that video
Continue readingI know more than one liberal who voted for Obama, despite conceding his total unpreparedness for the job, solely because he was black. These liberals were utterly unconcerned that they were elevating to the Presidency of the most powerful nation on earth, during a time of economic chaos and heightened
Continue readingThis weekend, I was at a block party, and the talk got around to the fact that, thanks to the internet, our children leave a trail a mile long. They’ve got posts and pictures up at Facebook or MySpace, and videos all over YouTube. Whether they’re applying for a job
Continue readingYesterday, weary and depressed, I linked to Charles Krauthammer’s most recent post, one that has him posit a Machiavellian Obama who has succeeded in laying the groundwork, not only for the transformation and, inevitably destruction of America, but also for his own reelection, so that he can cement his gains
Continue readingIf you’d like to be depressed, read Krauthammer’s latest. Sadly, it sounds accurate in every respect. Honest to God, I don’t know if America can recover from this, or if we’re going to l0ok like England 20 years from now. If that’s the case, I want a rock to crawl
