Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
That would be NBC’s Brian Williams you see making his graceful little homage to the King . . . er, the President: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLYtHHxTTmc[/youtube] During the feudal era, the structure was king, high nobles, knights, everyone else. Obeisance was expected from the person in the lower position to the person in
Continue readingIt’s been two days since our Commander in Chief lost one of his own in an attack on American soil — and his silence is deafening. When an abortionist died, our CIC instantly issued a public statement and used federal marshals to beef up security at abortion clinics. When one
Continue readingIn an interview timed to coincide with his book, Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning, having come out in paperback, Jonah Goldberg makes this very interesting point about modern fascism and Obama’s world view: You know, when I first started
Continue readingIt’s been months since the election, but something still bugs me. I live in, and have lived in, multiple communities: Elementary school, junior high school, high school, college, law school, year in England, my legal career (and friendships), my neighborhood, and my community from a parenting perspective. I’m a gregarious
Continue readingReader David Foster brought to my attention an article in the World Tribune which says Obama is refusing to give Israel helicopters that it requested: The Obama administration has blocked Israel’s request for advanced U.S.-origin attack helicopters. Government sources said the administration has held up Israel’s request for the AH-64D
Continue readingTed Bromund is worried that Obama, by going to both Buchenwald and Dresden in the same trip is about to do something symbolically awful. Buchenwald, of course, was one of the infamous Nazi labor camps located right in Germany itself. It was not a death camp, and was not used
Continue readingClearly, predator nations smell blood in the water — and that blood is Obama’s manifest inability to cope with predator nations. At least, that’s how I read this, from BNO News at 9:30 ish p.m. PST: N. Korea says it is no longer bound to the armistice which ended the
Continue readingI keep seeing headlines all over the place to the effect that Republican Senators will be afraid to vote against the first proposed Hispanic justice. This may certainly be true for Senators, who are a weaselly, unprincipled bunch, I suspect, though, that for many voters Obama himself is causing the
Continue readingA familiar trope amongst conservatives is to concede that Obama is a brilliant speaker, an oratorical genius, whose only problem is substance. It’s actually not stupid to take this position, because it helps in any argument with a liberal if you can open by saying, “I thought his speech was
Continue readingAn ardent Thatcherite in England has gotten approval for a statute of Ronald Reagan to be erected outside the U.S. Embassy in London. Unsurprisingly, given the world in which we live, feelings are mixed — not from the British, but from the current administration: An interior designer from Chelsea who
Continue readingWithout touching on policy, Rich Lowry explains Obama in two simple paragraphs: Put Barack Obama in front of a teleprompter and one thing is certain — he’ll make himself appear the most reasonable person in the room. Rhetorically, he is in the middle of any debate, perpetually surrounded by finger-pointing
Continue readingIt occurred to me that, two times in as many days, I’ve alluded to the first couple’s Messiah complex. Yesterday, I noted that Michelle and Barack are pretty sure that John 3:16 applies to their willingness to “give” Obama to the American people and, just a few hours ago I
Continue readingI haven’t seen the context in which Obama made the reported statement and, really, I don’t want to, because the AP report — which is a mere one sentence in length — seems to encapsulate everything we know about the man. Here is the entire AP report: WASHINGTON (AP) –
Continue readingIt will be interesting to see how Obama’s talks with Netanyahu go. Netanyahu is light years ahead of Obama in terms of intelligence and experience. Obama, however, has dense ideological filaments in his brain that may render him incapable of deviating from his biases. In other words, I doubt that
Continue readingMichelle Malkin takes Michelle Obama to task for her apparently hypocritical advise to UC Merced graduates to “give.” Malkin took issue with this language: “You will face tough times. You will certainly have doubts, and let me tell you because I know I did when I was your age,” she
