In 2020, America had its first postmodernist election

Posted on November 14, 2020November 14, 2020 by Bookworm

Postmodernism has meant decades teaching Americans there is no absolute truth — so why shouldn’t they believe the lies around this election? A young friend of mine, a leftist and a “scientist,” insists that there’s absolutely nothing bizarre about the fact that, as of 3 a.m. in the contested states,

Can we make our elections more fair? (By a Guest Author)

Posted on October 19, 2020 by Bookworm

It would require a constitutional amendment, but my guest author posits a way that the feds can standardize stringent anti-fraud controls. A friend who wishes to remain nameless emailed me a suggestion for standardizing an anti-fraud approach to handling federal elections. It requires more federal control, something that should make

Bookworm Beat 10/18/19: Warren’s economic ignorance, Biden’s anger, Trump’s Syria wisdom

Posted on October 18, 2019October 18, 2019 by Bookworm

Warren proves her economic illiteracy; Biden’s anger is evil, not cute; and Trump was playing 4-D chess with his Syria pullout. (This is a companion post to the No. 25 Bookworm Podcast which I uploaded yesterday. The content is mostly the same, although not identical. It won’t matter much, I think, whether

An evening with Mark Steyn, Victor Davis Hanson, and Steven Hayward

I’m still vibrating from the excitement of an evening hearing Mark Steyn, Victor Davis Hanson, and Steve Hayward, something I try to share in this post. Thanks to a kind friend, last night I once again had the inestimable pleasure of attending PRI’s annual gala. This year, Mark Steyn was

Republican weakness is more reason, not less, to vote Republican in November

Posted on September 24, 2018September 24, 2018 by Bookworm

To save the Constitution, you must ignore the barrage of Democrat slanders and the seemingly weak Republican responses, and vote Republican in November. Over the weekend, I saw two arguments trending on Twitter. The first, from the Left, is the argument that the attacks against Kavanaugh must be real, rather

Two different bestseller lists hint at a reddish wave in November

Posted on August 10, 2018August 10, 2018 by Bookworm

Two bestseller lists — one local and one national — hint that there may be, if not a red wave, at least a reddish wave nationwide in November. My local paper ran an article with bestsellers for Northern California and for the nation as a whole. As the article explains,

Will there be “shy” Trump supporters voting this coming November?

Posted on July 30, 2018July 30, 2018 by Bookworm

Today’s economic news gives a hook for the 2018 midterm campaign

Posted on March 9, 2018March 9, 2018 by Bookworm

The economic news out on Friday provides a ready-made slogan for Republicans going into the 2018 midterm campaign this Fall. Trump, keeping yet another one of his campaign promises, has given us an “unexpected” booming economy (except that those of us who believe in low regulation, low taxes, and high optimism were

Bookworm Beat 1/28/18 — the brilliant Trump Jay-Z beatdown edition

Posted on January 28, 2018 by Bookworm

From Trump’s epic response to Jay-Z, to Dennis Prager’s surprise admission, to Daniel Greenfield’s Leftist exposé, and more — there’s lots of brilliance here. Trump’s genius approach to Jay-Z’s “superbug” attack. I am getting wise to the ways of Trump. That’s why I know that the war into which he’s
