Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
This kind of performance art is horrific, because it makes it impossible to determine any more what is true: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYGcIhNGSIY[/youtube] Hat tip: Laer Pearce UPDATE: Here’s another perfect example of the way in which the Left destroys are ability to believe in anything through the use of mirror image deceptions.
Continue readingObama’s media attack dog, Anita Dunn, was caught saying that Chairman Mao is one of her two favorite political philosophers, with Mother Teresa occupying the other spot: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiBDpL2dExY[/youtube] Dunn is now claiming, in effect, that, “Hey, I was only joking to make a rhetorical point.” A joke, huh? Well, if
Continue readingZhombre forwarded this email to me. I think it’s right on the money: If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn`t buy one. If a liberal doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed. If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn`t eat meat. If a liberal is a vegetarian,
Continue readingI’m too much of a self-control freak ever to have been attracted to recreational drugs (or even alcohol, for that matter). Add to that the fact that my first childhood memories involve the Haight-Ashbury after the Summer of Love fell apart, when the neighborhood had turned into one giant, drug-ridden
Continue readingObama spouted a maudlin mess about Kennedy today. He didn’t even bother to mention by allusion to Kennedy’s “flaws” that little problem at Chappaquiddick: Today we say goodbye to the youngest child of Rose and Joseph Kennedy. The world will long remember their son Edward as the heir to a
Continue readingHumor is an interesting thing. Every few years studies come out saying humor is about power, humor is about the unexpected, humor is about the human condition, human is about the eternal battle between id and ego, etc. There are many studies as their are grants. One thing I do
Continue readingYou all know about the Scottish government’s insane decision to free the mass murdering Lockerbie bomber on “compassion” grounds. You also all know about the government-sponsored rapturous, hero’s welcome this same mass murderer received upon his arrival in Libya. That’s yesterday’s news. Steve Schippert, who blogs at ThreatsWatch, finds the
Continue readingMy liberal husband still hasn’t forgiven me for pointing out that the MSM deleted from it’s coverage Obama’s request for poupon at a burger joint, nor can he understand why I (and other conservatives) find the request both telling and amusing. These things matter very deeply to the liberals. Tom

Continue readingNot a conversation in which I was involved (nor was it politic or appropriate to become involved), but I heard someone this morning praising Carter’s execrable editorial (and I’m not going to dignify that with a link) castigating Israel for defending itself. The liberal praising the article, when asked about
Continue readingYmarsakar brought to my attention a post I wrote over three years ago. I’m reprinting a slightly edited version here, not just because I think it describes well the Arab psyche that drives so much of current international politics (and fears) today, but also because I think it does a
Continue readingThanks to Deanna for bringing my attention to a story about a young girl’s experiment with the diversity and tolerance that is so touted in America’s liberal elite communities. In Oak Park, Illinois, a wealth “liberal” community much like my own, a 14 year old public school child, noting how
Continue readingAs I do, my in-laws, all of whom are McCain supporters, live in a liberal community. They periodically get together with their conservative friends and bemoan the fact that lawn signs are stolen or despoiled, or that cars bearing McCain-Palin bumperstickers are targets of vandalism (keying, smashed windows, etc.). Along
Continue readingI had a lovely time last night at a reception on the Bonhomme Richard, and plan on writing about it later today. However, other work calls, so I thought I’d fill this space with recommendations for interesting stuff you may want to read. In no particular order: William Katz, a
Continue readingOne of the things that’s been playing through my head lately is the distance between the liberal worldview and actual reality. The media arguments directed at Palin, especially those that deal with women’s issues, really highlighted that divide for me. Let’s begin with the way in which liberals distinguish themselves
