Still catching up from the devastation that yesterday wrought on my schedule. However, I had the chance to read a few good things: Ken Braun: The real unemployment is much higher and most Americans know it: Regardless of reasons, the net effect of a steadily rising adult population and sharply
Continue readingI’ve been a fan of Elbert Guillory since May 2013, when he was still a Democrat. Given how much I liked him, I was not surprised when he announced that he was leaving the Democrat party. Guillory’s explanation for his decision to switch party affiliations ought to be seen by every

Continue readingDonna Brazile authored a tweet in which she was obviously trying to condemn the President’s critics for daring to suggest that it might be a bad thing when the leader of the once-free world, when faced with a fast metastasizing death cult, announces that there’s in-fighting in the government and
Continue readingPlease tell me that I’m not the only one who found it hysterically funny that the Vice President of the United States gave what Matt Drudge classified as a “take back America” speech. It’s my impression that “take back America” is the battle cry for those outside of the White
Continue readingI always enjoy Andrew Klavan’s videos, but this may well be one of the best he’s ever done. With sly sarcasm and wit, he quickly and neatly exposes the rank hypocrisy and disdain for blacks that has animated the Democrat party for more than 150 years:
Continue readingMy earlier post about Trevor Loudon’s talk pivoted on the fact that communists are bad and that Democrats are communists. What I didn’t know is that maverick talk show host Howard Stern said much the same recently. This poster is a slightly abbreviated version of what he said, but it’s
Continue readingEvery day, we get more evidence that the ruling Democrat party in thrall to a malignant narcissism. Below, I list the 20 generally agreed upon symptoms of malignant narcissism, almost all of which can easily be aligned with conduct emanating from the Obama White House and the Democrat side of
Continue readingA liberal friend who despairs of my decision to turn my back on the Democrat Party and declare myself a conservative, sent me an article from Salon. In it, the author smugly explains that he was a life-long libertarian, went to a Ron Paul convention, saw that a lot of

By brute force — a near party-line vote of 52-48. This was a disgraceful violation of more than two centuries of precedent. If a
Continue readingHarry Reid has just succeeded in doing what Franklin Roosevelt couldn’t do: he’s going to pack the court. Yes, Roosevelt was aiming for the Supreme Court, while Reid’s only going after the district and appellate courts, but the reality is that we’re seeing incrementalism. Today, the lower level courts; tomorrow,

Continue readingDuring the Cold War, there were two types of jokes about the Soviet Union: those told within the Soviet Union about how bad life was there, and jokes told outside of the Soviet Union about how bad life was there. Americans told the jokes with gusto. Secure in their freedom
