On May 29, 2008, I wrote a post about the perverse symbolism and probable foul use to which Obama will put his planned trip to Buchenwald.  I’ve since added a short, but rather significant, update to that post.  Instead of  re-posting the whole thing, I’ll just direct your attention to

I’m not quite sure if it’s hypocrisy, or if it’s just another disgusting example of liberal opportunism, hence the wishy-washy name of this post.  Whatever it is, it sure left me feeling icky. Oh, you’re wondering what the “it” I’m talking about is, right?  I’m talking about the magical way

We all know what gangstas wear, because those same clothes eventually ended up being worn by every middle class boy in America:  unlaced high tops, falling down pants over plaid boxers, t-shirts with menacing images, and reverse baseball caps. For once, though, there’s a fashion that’s hit both ganstas and

The one thing we know for sure is that the lapdog media, which considered Reagan’s hair color a matter of top priority, has been discretely silent about Obama’s relationship with the bottle (the dye bottle, that is).

I don’t doubt that Sotomayor is smart.  What’s questionable is how smart.  To the liberals, her Ivy League degrees give her instant crediblity.  Let me quote from Ruth Marcus, along with the fisking I gave a few days ago on that particular point: Ditto, with a bit of racism thrown

Austin, Texas, is a great town.  It’s beautiful, the people are friendly, and it’s got one of the premier public universities in America.  It’s this last that is responsible for Austin’s reputation as the most politically liberal town in Texas.  This Progressive reputation goes a long way to explain the

This is every parent’s nightmare.  Mr. Bookworm is still shuddering periodically after having read it.  I’m sure the father in the story wishes he were dead — and probably survived only because an Iraq vet who is also a paramedic, coincidentally was on hand to render first aid. A council

Obama just told Israel to halt settlements, and at the same time told Palestinians to “increase[s] security.” I’m now curious about something — genuinely curious, not snarky:  Prior to today, in his four months as President, has Obama told the Palestinians to stop killing Israelis? I mean, telling Palestinians to

I’m horrible at word play, but those of you who are, and those of you who aren’t, will enjoy the way Rick’s playing with words at Brutally Honest.

I’m assuming this ad placement was coincidental, but I nevertheless found the juxtaposition of the article’s caption and the ad’s picture amusing:

Aaaggghhh! No words.  Just Aaaggghhh! Okay, changed my mind.  Two sentences:  Wasn’t it Bill Clinton who claimed oral sex wasn’t really sex?  Now look what we’ve ended up with!
