Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I watched about 30 minutes of the debate. I missed the beginning because I was taking care of business, and I tuned out after 30 minutes because my feed broke down. What little I did watch still left me with a few impressions about the field. Before I begin, let
Continue readingI’ve now had some time to consider the top Republican contenders for next year’s presidential election, and I’ve decided that nothing has changed my mind in the past few months — I still like Ted Cruz best. Based on what I perceive are the strengths and weaknesses of the various
Continue readingSo much to share with you, and so many demands on my time. I’ll make it quick, tantalizing you with short links to wonderful things: We know the other media outlets are hostile to Israel, but is it possible that Fox News is also turning on Israel? CAMERA has caught
Continue readingBoehner was merely an effective manager, rather than an effective conservative Andrew Klavan is kind enough to point out that Boehner was in some measure a very effective House Majority Leader: I can’t help but notice that under Boehner — and largely because of Boehner, because Boehner outsmarted President Obama in the
Continue readingIt’s not that I’m completely anti-abortion. As is the case for the majority of Americans, I recognize that there are circumstances in which abortion may be appropriate. It’s that I’m completely anti-“abortion culture.” I am opposed to a worldview that is so invested in the mantra that “it’s a woman’s
Continue readingI was in the hospital taking care of a sundowning mom, so I forgot about the debate entirely. My anonymous friend, though, watched and sent me some impressions. Please note that he was remarking upon their debate performance and not on each person’s general merits as a candidate: I’ve been

Continue readingCarly Fiorina’s “hot seat” responses on Fox News are impressive. I especially appreciated her point about America’s medical care system, because that’s the same point I was trying to make: I was impressed with her Senate candidacy. I’m even more impressed when she’s addressing national issues.
Continue readingAn almost mesmerizing video from Carly Fiorina asking the question “What are Hillary Clinton’s accomplishments as Secretary of State (beyond, of course, the blood of four men on her hands)? Cruz-Fiorina, anybody?
Continue readingWith Carly Fiorina earning an increasing number of accolades for her campaign against Hillary Clinton, I thought I should republish my take on her from a 2010 talk she gave in Marin County when she made her unsuccessful run to get Barbara Boxer’s seat: *** Fiorina, who showed up right
