The Bookworm Beat 10/18/16 — the “Hillary sex scandal” edition and open thread

Hillary is a sex fiend who sleeps with anything that moves.  You may want to bleach your eyeballs after reading the following words, but here they are: Hillary Clinton is a secret sex freak who paid fixers to set up illicit romps with both men AND women! That’s the blockbuster revelation

The Bookworm Beat 9/21/16 — the “I’m mad as Hell” evening edition and open thread

I can’t say too much lest I breach Little Bookworm’s privacy, but suffice it to say that, after only two weeks at her Obscenely Expensive Liberal Arts College, she has already taken a giant step in the direction of moronic, damaging Leftism. I have refrained from berating her because that

The Bookworm Beat 9/21/2016 — the “hurry up” edition and open thread

Trump has an ideology and it’s a good one. Trump has an actual plan that explains his appeal. How do I know this?  Because, for unclear reasons, Politico.com decided to engage in actual journalism.

I had the pleasure of listening to a delightful well-informed, thoughtful speaker: Brian Calle, who is the Opinion Editor of the Southern California News Group and oversees Opinion content for its 11 newspapers and websites, including the well-regarded Orange County Register. The 11 entities have a larger circulation than the

The Bookworm Beat 8/22/16 — the “as the world turns” edition and open thread

No wonder 1984 is no longer required reading in high schools. One of the Little Bookworms, after a summer of sloth, decided to read something noteworthy before returning to school. Her choice was George Orwell’s 1984, which I would include in any top 25 or even top 10 reading list.
