Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I think Obama has done a good thing for Israel. With his abandonment of Israel, leaving Israel hanging out in the wind on her own, even the Israeli Left has been forced to face a reality they previously denied: Palestinians are not partners in peace. They are a force aimed
Continue readingI saw a headline at Drudge, to the effect that there is a photo of Afghan “insurgents” with U.S. ammo. The story, although I’m sure it’s interesting, interested me less than that word “insurgent.” We’ve all talked about the fact that “insurgent” a word that allows a politically correct, liberal
Continue readingThe Daily Mail has the data to prove what we all knew: a political party that shifts the tax burden to less than 50% of the population, while leaving more than half the population dependent on government largesse, wins in perpetuity (or until the country implodes, whichever comes first).
Continue readingThe following video purports to prove that Obama is a Muslim. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCAffMSWSzY&feature=player_embedded[/youtube] I actually think the video does not make its case. Here’s why: I believe Obama fears Islam’s wrath, not at a God level, but at a practical level. Muslims can hurt people. He thinks if he makes nice
Continue readingHad Europe been able to vote last November’s presidential elections, Obama would have swept into office with a vote above 95%. Over there, they loved him. He was the antithesis of the ugly American who rode into town and imposed law. This was a guy who would be kind and
Continue readingThe other day, the Daily Mail ran an article about the exponential increase in stranger attacks in England, a byproduct of the public drunkenness that is increasing at an even faster rate than the violence. I still remember when England was a remarkably safe, clean little country, except in the
Continue readingIt’s like standing in line at the check out counter: You find yourself peering into the cart in front of you to see what people are eating. The obviously overweight person in front of you has filled his cart with junk food, sugary cereals, ice cream, no vegetables, lots of
Continue readingI don’t often do this, as you know, but I’m going to quote Jennifer Rubin’s post in its entirety here. I think it’s important that people understand precisely what is going on in Washington and how it’s affecting men and women in Afghanistan. Rubin, unsurprisingly, does as good a job
Continue readingWe’re not talking about the way distant past here, we’re talking about Britain in the 1950s, a place some found stable, safe and charming, and others repressive and stultifying. I’m a stable, safe and charming gal myself, so I developed a real sense of nostalgia reading about a place and
Continue readingHorrible story of what happens when political correctness and fear of a violent minority group culminate in a school that saw the administration look the other way for fear of offending those violent minority sensibilities. This, by the way, is how that paralyzing political correctness, a sensiblity that saps courage
Continue readingCharles Krauthammer goes on full throttle attack against Barack Obama based on Obama’s endless, weasely whining that everything that’s gone wrong with the first nine months of his presidency is all Bush’s fault. The central focus of this whining, of course, is Afghanistan, which candidate Obama claimed was the necessary
Continue readingJennifer Rubin has two posts this morning, both of which illustrate my point about the dangerous relationship between our CIC and the military he’s supposed to be leading. In the first, she talks about the insane decision-making process in D.C., which seems to have little to do with either victory
Continue readingI’ve said it a million times and I’ll now say it for the million and first time: You fight wars to win. If you’re not committed to winning, leave. If you don’t leave, and fight a half-assed war, you end with dead soldiers. That’s what happened in Vietnam, and that’s
Continue readingJames Taranto nails what the President really meant to say when he spoke to troops about Afghanistan: “I will never rush the solemn decision of sending you into harm’s way,” FoxNews.com quotes the president as telling servicemen. As for the servicemen who are already in harm’s way: Jeez, guys, be
Continue readingIf there was ever an example of misguided compassion, this story out of Britain must rank at the top of the list: A psychopathic Satanist, given a ‘life means life’ sentence for strangling his cellmate whilst already serving life for murder, has had that cut to 20 years on appeal
