Bookworm Beat 4/15/22 — The taking your mind off taxes illustrated edition
This should take your mind off taxes but, given how insane Biden’s America is, I doubt it will make you feel any better about things.

Bookworm Beat 1/14/22 — the “January 6 is our Groundhog Day” illustrated edition
The Democrats want us to relive January 6 forever. It’s our job to make sure that doesn’t happen. Plus other smart, funny memes. Yikes, the image below is what happens when I am multitasking. I’d meant to say that this is the kind of thing that passes for a deeply

What do I think of the Democrats’ COVID-19 management? *UPDATE*
A truly thoughtful, open-minded Democrat friend asked me what I thought of the COVID-19 lockdowns. This was my first pass answer. I am opposed to the lockdowns. Fortunately, I’m in an economic class that can handle them. People who cannot telecommute or live on their savings are being destroyed. I

The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly of Links . . .

This so-called ‘new normal’ had better not be the permanent ‘normal’
In 1920, Warren G. Harding’s campaign slogan was “a return to normalcy.” He won. Perhaps that ought to be Trump’s new slogan: “Make America Normal Again.” One of the ickiest phrases around lately is the “new normal.” We’re told by leftist politicos and a thousand commercials that we’re in the

On the economy, Trump, unlike Obama, actually knows his stuff.
Talking to Maria Bartiromo, Trump did more than talk about China and trade. He showed his bona fides as a president competent to lead on the economy. I watched the segment showing Trump talking to Maria Bartiromo about China. Indeed, he is not given to mellifluous phrases, big words, and

With coronavirus, the media is proving it is evil
The media’s hysteria about coronavirus is intended to destroy the American economy because media types are focused single-mindedly on defeating Trump. I have a few things I want to say about coronavirus or Wuhan Virus. I’ll start with the little stuff and build up to the big stuff. First, it’s

State of the Union . . . and the 2020 Race
Trump’s State of the Union speech — very good. Pelosi’s toddler-like tantrum at the end — priceless. Last night was not a normal state of the union speech. It was the opening of Trump’s reelection campaign for 2020. On one hand were Trump’s laundry list of accomplishments. On the other

Bookworm Beat 1/12/20 — the “I don’t have answers, I only have questions edition”
Reading through the news, I see that most of the news is so crazy, it doesn’t inform me; it just leaves me with questions that I’ll now share with you. I’ve mentioned before a game I play with a friend. He reads me headlines and asks me to guess whether

Bernie wants to raise taxes and it’s going to hurt
In 2016, I wrote several posts for my I Don’t Like Bernie blog. With Bernie rising in the polls, this post revisits his terrible tax proposals. The website I Like Bernie, But…, created in 2016 and updated for 2019, tries to calm people’s fears about Bernie Sander’s socialist extremism. It states

President Trump is the “dayenu” president
No matter how imperfect Trump is, looking at his record of accomplishments, as to each one I say the Passover word “dayenu” — it would have been enough. During the Passover dinner, one of the songs Jewish families sing is Dayenu. It is in the nature of a “count your

Bookworm Beat 12/20/18 — the border wall edition
I went overboard in this Bookworm Beat, covering the border wall, Syria, Antisemitism, Europe’s fall, science, Michelle and Melania, media bias, and much more. Good walls make good neighbors. Trump did it — he got the House to include $5 billion in the budget bill to build the border wall.

Bookworm Beat 10/23/18 — the invading mob from the south and open thread
There’s still much to say about the mob heading for our southern border, not to mention transgender madness and the upcoming election (plus yodeling). A reader explains the invasion. I am so fortunate to have such smart readers. In this case, the smart reader is Ms. L: Several comments/observations on

Brett Kavanaugh and Kanye West have combined to make sure that the 2018 midterm election will not be a normal one. . . . what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born? — William Butler Yeats, The Second Coming, 1919 Many things
