Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
In the post immediately below, I wrote about the fact that Obama in this past week seems to have abandoned reality regarding Ukraine and the Middle East and opted, instead, for a fact-free fantasy. This chart summarizes some of what he’s missing:
Continue readingMano a mano, I’d bet on Netanyahu against Obama every time. Nation to nation, though, Bibi has the misfortune to be facing off against a spoiled, Leftist, anti-Israel, pot-smoking adolescent who nevertheless controls the world’s greatest military and economic power. I’m still betting on the Israelis, but it’s not a

Continue readingAlmost 140 years ago, Lewis Carroll created Humpty Dumpty, a malevolent, controlling, arrogant figure who maintained power in his relationship with Alice (of Wonderland fame) by denying her the ability either to speak her mind or to understand his. Whatever she said, he quarreled with her word choice, and whatever
Continue readingFrom American Thinker: I called a hardheaded realist, a Harvard trained PhD who has been watching the Middle East professionally for decades, to ask him about Obama’s Iran deal. This is what he told me. It’s done. Iran will get a bomb. They want a bomb and they will not
Continue readingObama doesn’t like the Jews and the Jews don’t trust Obama. From the “Jews don’t trust Obama” file comes Jonathan Tobin’s excellent analysis, which ends with this compelling paragraph: The United States seems to be retreating from the Middle East, a position that frightens many Arabs as well as the
Continue readingA friend sent me to JewNews, which has the following Facebook poster. Pretty telling; pretty compelling: It’s a visual reminder of Golda Meir’s famous statement that “We will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.” Sometimes it seems as if the only
Continue readingI found incredibly amusing the Facebook post a very Progressive friend of mine wrote about her daughter. During her gap year (a break between high school and college), the daughter wanted to do the very Marin thing of going to work on an organic farm natural habitats in Africa. When
Continue readingWhen I was in law school, I applied for to myriad law firms for a job. I had good grades (and ultimately ended up with offers from prestigious law firms), but what remains in my memory forever is a rejection letter I got from one rather insignificant law firm: Dear
Continue readingYesterday, I suggested that you get a good laugh by watching a slobberingly loving Obamacare rap. Today, I insist that you watch this powerful, hypnotic video about the manifest antisemitism that drives the “Boycott, Divest and Sanction” (or “BDS”) movement against Israel, the world’s only Jewish nation: And if you’re
Continue readingI’m tired of pussy-footing around calling Obama merely dishonest, stupid, feral, leftist, etc. Let’s call it like it is: the man is evil. Only an evil man would say this (emphasis mine): There are times where I as President of the United States am going to have different tactical perspectives
Continue readingI agree with every word in David Solway’s article about Obama’s continued efforts to destroy Israel. The one word I disagree with occurs in this paragraph: The speech [that Obama gave in Sderot in 2008, promising his support for Israel’s right to exist and defend herself] was a stirring one
Continue readingAlinsky rule No. 13: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Today’s news: Senior officials in the White House have said that Israel Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu “is desperate and weak,” in reaction to Netanyahu’s remonstrations against the deal struck with Iran over its nuclear weapons program.
Continue readingA “perfect storm” occurs when circumstances that normally operate independently from each other occur at the same time, with each heightening the other’s impact. Starting at sunset tonight, we are about to see the nexus of four circumstances that normally operate independent of each other, especially since two of those
Continue readingI went to bed depressed and waking up to these Drudge Report headlines reminded me why: The whole Iran-Munich moment has left me believing that Obama is much smarter than we realized. Even as he was lying to Israel about (a) having her back and (b) not negotiating with Iran,
