Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
For my first post as a guest here at Bookworm I was contemplating many different topics, mostly concerning dealing with the Social Justice Mob. But then I saw the horrific undercover video of Planned Parenthood’s Senior Director of Medical Services, Dr. Deborah Nucatola admitting and conspiring to sell fetal body
Continue readingThis is it — the ultimate round-up, consisting of more than 20 links that I’ve collected over the past couple of days and wanted to share with you. Nothing works better at squeezing a nice long blog post than a series of legal pleadings I really don’t want to write.
Continue readingI’ve been going through my email, as well as through my “real me” Facebook today, and I find some interesting — and surprising — things. Here goes: The Islamic hostage crisis in Sydney My thoughts and prayers are with the hostages trapped in the Lindt Cafe in Sydney, Australia’s historic
Continue readingSorry for the downer title, but the news is anything but good, wherever one looks. At the home front we’ve had flat tires, broken bones, and dead phones. (The broken bone belongs to my exchange student, who is disappointed, but not too terribly damaged, thank goodness.) The past few day’s
Continue readingYahoo News had a short photo essay about transparent animals. I’m by way of being a transparent animal myself this year. Thanks to bone and muscle breakdowns, surgery, and anemia, I’ve been cut open, scanned, x-rayed, probed, and pretty much turned inside out in an effort to repair what’s wrong.
Continue readingBack in the 1980s, when I was a good ol” liberal Democrat (sort of in the Kennedy mold), I kept hearing those Bible Thumpers in the Moral Majority bandy about a word: “Secularist.” What the heck was that? Nobody I knew (and everyone I knew was a person of the sort-of
Continue readingIf you’ve been educated in the American school system at any time during and after the late 1960s, you’ve been taught that Margaret Sanger, had her emotions terribly wrung when she saw the terrible suffering poor women (mostly immigrants and blacks) experienced because they had child after child after child
Continue readingNational Review’s Alex Torres has unearthed a really disgusting example of academic-think over at UCSB. That’s where Mireille Miller-Young, who gets paid to teach students about porn and sex work, with a little bit of “black culture” on the side, not only aggressively stole a sign from a pro-Life display
Continue readingEvery conservative online publication today is talking about the British hospital that used aborted and miscarried babies as part of the fuel for its heating system. I, and others, have commented that even the Nazis didn’t use their crematoria for heaters, although one cannot deny that the Nazis harvested everything
Continue readingI’m running late, but I had to share these four things with you: First, a New York Times opinion piece saying that it would be a gross travesty if the Supreme Court were to deny Hobby Lobby employees their absolute right to have a religious company pay for their birth
Continue readingI have learned something about myself over the past 5.5 weeks: I will never master crutches. After all this time, I still fall going up the stairs, get vertigo going down the stairs, topple over when trying to reach light switches, get abrasions on my skin, and exhaust my injured
Continue readingThere’s a story out of Santa Barbara today about a UC Santa Barbara professor who went berserk in a campus free-speech area when she saw a pro-Life display with graphic pictures of aborted fetuses. She tried to lead a mob against it, grabbed a display and ran off with it,
Continue readingSPOILER ALERT!!! I’m going to be discussing last night’s episode of Downton Abbey. If you haven’t seen it yet, and are still planning on watching it, STOP READING RIGHT NOW. * * * * Okay. Are those of you still with me okay with a spoiler? Good. Let’s get going
Continue readingI am indebted to Jose for the perfect solution to Obama’s moral dilemma regarding dead children in Syria: Obama says he wants to protect Syrian children. He should just pretend they are fetuses. I liked that so much, I made a poster:
Continue readingOne of the reasons given for legalizing abortion was so that it could be done by doctors, rather than less qualified practitioners. (Although the Gosnell case revealed that being is physician is no guarantee of quality.) Given that a driving argument behind abortion was to put women in the hands
