Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I exhausted my self with last night’s lengthy Bookworm Beat, but I have two points — one about Betsy DeVos’s qualifications to be Education Secretary and the other about Oakland’s fund for illegal immigrants — that I believe go a long way to summing up so much of what’s wrong

If my internet reading had a chyron, of the type you see on cable news, under every article I read you would see the words “Democrat Implosion,” along with headlines about walking vaginas, feminists advocating sharia, Senators weeping over terrorists, and other insanity from Progressives who are no longer on

Because the media is working overtime to out-and-out lie, or just subtly misrepresent, Trump’s immigration stay, ordinary people are having to do the media’s job. That’s what my friend John did, and he came up with something simple, straightforward, and singularly illuminating: SUMMARY Yes, the MSM is dishonest BUT it’s

You’ll notice that the title of this post — Life in Trump’s America — echoes previous round-ups I did called Life in Obama’s America. Those old posts were dystopian; in this, the new Age of Trump, things are a lot more cheerful when viewed through the prism of patriotism, rationality,

In honor of President Trump, I have a yuuuge collection of splendid posters. I know you’ll enjoy them:

I’d read about Ashley Judd having recited to the vulgar women assembled before her in a poem that Nina Donovan, a 19-year-old from Tennessee had written. I’d also read that the poem was exceedingly vulgar and went low, very low, in its attacks on Donald Trump, even to the point

My Facebook feed is swimming in proudly posted pictures of vulgar gals out there protesting just about everything, united only by their crudity, their hated, their stupidity, and their infantile sexual obsessions. I keep telling myself that something that agitates this many Americans is something we need to take seriously

An extreme bit of Hillary adulation showed up on my Facebook feed today: In case the “see more” button on the post doesn’t work, this is what Andrew Mayzak had to say: Can we talk about this for a minute? This is a Yale-educated law professor, First Lady, Senator, and
Continue readingJust as the progs are pushing the narrative that Wikileaks exposure of Democrat emails amounted to stealing the 2016 election, our Unfortunately Still President But Almost Gone Obama (his now official title) has seen fit to commute the sentence of Bradley Manning. Manning was of course the U.S. Army intelligence

We spent two days in Hue, Vietnam. Looking at this peaceful city, it’s hard to believe that it was the site if the Tet Offensive — a place where our troops won the battle and our government lost the war. Hue has an ancient Citadel, which was both a military

#BoycottTheBoycotters continues to be an urgent battle cry. While you were busy enjoying the holidays with your family, Progressives were equally busy, targeting more businesses to join with them in saying that American conservatives are so beyond the pale that American businesses should no longer desire them as customers. As

Yes, the Electoral College has spoken on the election, but the Progressives’ weeping, wailing, beating of breasts, and rending of garments continues unabated. That’s why you’ll find these articles pertinent, interesting, amusing and, sometimes, frightening. Don’t attack people from whom you want something. Hillary wanted votes from Americans but she

I have to admit to being baffled that more people are not angry and joining with me in #BoycottingTheBoycotters. Instead, they seem disturbingly comfortable with the fact that a growing list of businesses at home and abroad have determined that 62,000,000 Americans have placed themselves so far beyond the pale

Thanks to my friends, I have an email box filled with links to fascinating, random politics. In keeping with that random spirit, I present to you this randomly organized post: Principled journalism versus American journalism. Conservatives have been understandably charmed by the meltdown that Kurt Eichenwald, a Newsweak reporter suffered,
Continue readingBack in the 1960s and 1970s, state and local politicians did come and give talks at whichever public school I happened to attend at the time. The politicians’ topics were invariably uplifting things about civic involvement, public service, the great people of San Francisco or California, or similar anodyne, non-partisan
