Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
The Mueller indictments show that no American conspired with the Russians — and that the Russians successfully acted to “sow discord” in the U.S. political system. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TrEF1CLvow] After suffering through a year of hysteria and the disruption of our national politics by our neo-Marxist progs trying to undo the election,
Continue readingWith impeccable timing, the server went down last night and my blog vanished. My blog is restored (as you can see), so I thought that I’d do an open thread about last night’s Republican debate. I managed to watch 2/3 of it, and think that Ace sums up my feelings
Continue readingAll of the posts I’ll link to pre-date today’s New Hampshire primary. This is a NH primary-free zone. You might find it refreshing. And now, to the good stuff: Trump could destroy conservativism in America for decades. I think Charles Krauthammer hits the ball out of the park on this
Continue readingWhen it comes to political mailers, all of the candidates, not just Ted Cruz, are doing the same thing — and that “same thing” is anything that’s proven to get out the vote, including “shaming letters” (click on image for original Tweet):
Continue readingUnusually for me, I had time to watch some of the debate and I had access to a television. (Yes, I can watch debates on my computer monitor, but I do my best debate watching stretched out on the couch staring at the big screen.) I lasted all the way through to
Continue readingYesterday, I got around to reading Michael Crowley’s ‘We Caved’ : What happened when Barack Obama’s idealistic rhetoric collided with the cold realities of war and dictatorship in the Middle East and beyond. I recommend it. It’s a depressing look at what happens when the Progressive Ivory Tower meets the
Continue readingSometimes, the best way to figure out what politician will best serve your values and interests is to look at what those antithetical to your interests are trying to force upon you. In this election, the Leftist media and the decidedly non-conservative GOP are steering conservative voters either to Donald Trump or Marco
Continue readingDuring the fifth Republican candidates’ debate, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio clashed repeatedly over national security issues, with each accusing the other of having been weak on national defense in the past and following the wrong path into the future. Because American voters identify national security as their primary concern
Continue readingI 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 made no secret of the fact that I support Ted Cruz. I realize he’s not perfect, but no candidate is. What matters to me is that his political values most closely align with mine, that he’s not scared of a fight (and, especially, he’s not scared of the media),
Continue readingI’ve still got a few more things I want to share with you tonight, so consider this Part 2 for the day (with Part 1 here). The coming (and inevitable) Leftist implosion Every time I read a Kevin Williamson article, I like his writing and thinking just a little bit
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 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 readingJust a few quick links I don’t want to leave on the table before I head down to my perpetual motion machine for the rest of the evening. Earlier today, I bought a Mark Steyn gift certificate to help fund his legal battle against Michael Mann, a man who rejoices
