Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
The MSM and the State Department were in an instant froth of American self-abasement when news hit that Americans had committed mass slaughter against Afghani civilians. Except that, as Jules Crittenden points out, reading past both headlines and Hillary’s knee-jerk apologies, it appears that these tragic deaths might have been
Continue readingYou really have to wonder what the hell is wrong with Sinise that he’s a talented artist, a good human being and a patriotic American. I thought that combination of attributes was illegal in Obama’s America. Still, notwithstanding the pressure on anyone affiliated with Hollywood to buckle down and toe
Continue readingI’ll comment just briefly on this story about a Belgian production of Saint-Saëns’s “Samson et Dalila,” which casts modern Jews as the Philistines, Palestinians as the Hebrews and Samson as a suicide bomber. My comment: this is the typical “artistic” crap that emantes from the Left (whether non-Jewish or self-loathing
Continue readingLet me open this post by stating my biases honestly: I hate Colin Powell. I think he is in significant part responsible for the Second Gulf War, because he was one of the loudest voices telling Bush Sr. to abandon the First Gulf War without pressing onto Baghdad itself. And,
Continue readingJust a couple of days ago, it sounded like a great joke when Charles Martel imagined the Senate confirmation hearings for the first black lesbian Supreme Court justice. The joke is now on us, as the gay lobby (responding appropriately to the administration’s obsession with quotas and identity politics) is
Continue readingIn two days, the Marin County Sheriff’s department had the most extreme kind of good luck and the most extreme kind of bad luck. I truly cannot imagine the play of emotions in that office.

Continue readingYou can bet your bottom dollar that 100% of it’s management and probably 90% of its customers (make that 100% for the San Francisco store) are hardcore Obama supporters. The Whole Food managers are also some damn fine capitalists. I went reeling out of the store empty-handed, abandoning my idea
Continue readingI have to admit that, when I’m in Whole Foods, as I am now, I take a certain perverse pleasure in ignoring their FOUR obsessive-compulsive recycling bins (complete with complicated, illustrated directions for the unintiated) and just throwing everything in the trash. I don’t like being dictated to garbage-wise.
Continue readingI’ve been plowing laboriously through my inboxes — both email and paper — which has depleted a ridiculous amount of my time and energy. Still, even if I didn’t have time to blog, I did have time to think and I ended up with a question for you. Why is
Continue readingOne of the things I love about satellite radio is the 40s station, and one of the things I love about 40s radio is how clever the lyrics are. Here are just three examples of ordinary songs from that era, mostly forgotten now, with just wonderful lyrics. And as you

I’d give you the link but, because we TiVo’d the show, and my husband sped through all commercials and station information, I have no idea on which channel the show originated. Aside from offering gorgeous photography from one of

Let’s start off with Jon Stewart and this question posed by one Blackfive commenter and reader. My answer for
Continue readingIn an MTV world, in which the up-and-coming generation has a 3 minute attention span, image is, if not everything, way more important than it used to be — as Obama proved and still proves. He ran a content free campaign and won because he was new and improved. Now,
