Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
At National Review, Katrina Trinko has a nice post about the media’s palpitating desire to see Chelsea Clinton run for office, despite the fact that Chelsea, so far, hasn’t seemed that interested. Trinko focuses on the media, not on Chelsea, and Trinko clearly has no intention of attacking Chelsea. Indeed, she
Continue readingI may have mentioned that just about the only news I have access to on this trip is the New York Times. I have Internet, but it’s so expensive that I write things offline (such as emails to family or posts to the blog) and then sign on just long
Continue readingI don’t know ho useful the people in this video will prove to be, but I can assure you that they are idiots:
Continue readingIn an earlier post, I put forth my theory that most scandals affect only political players, so people get excited only if the media stirs up excitement. The IRS scandal is different, because it affects all of us but, like Pavlov’s dogs, we’re still trained only to get excited if
Continue readingScandals, scandals, and more scandals. My list so far includes: 1. Benghazi: politics before, politics and apathy during, and politics and a wall of lies and cover-ups afterwards. 2. Fast & Furious: a completely bungled effort to track cartels in Mexico or a deliberate attempt to gin up gun crime
Continue readingAs of this morning, the Washington Post earnestly tells us that, with one bomber in custody and one dead, we still have no idea why they did it. We know that they’re brothers and that they come from Chechnya, a region that’s been having unnamed troubles leading to terrorism. One
Continue readingI just don’t have a lot to say right now. Here are some posts I enjoyed today, though: The Republican House’s passive-aggressive approach to Obama. Core issues of evil regarding bombings, abortion, and the media. And a question for you: Have you noticed that Obama and fellow Dems have been
Continue readingMy head is spinning. I just wrote a post for Mr. Conservative based upon the most current news stories saying that an arrest had been made. From the time of those stories to the time I published the post, it was about 10 minutes. Within one minute after the post
Continue readingMr. Colion Noir says in less than five minutes what it would take me five really long posts, spread out over five days, to say. I’m really impressed and couldn’t agree with him more. He packs a lot into the five minutes, but my takeaway — and something I couldn’t
Continue readingThe Leftists in the media were orgasmic yesterday as they again anointed Barack Obama “the next Reagan.” Ace explains why this is a dream, not a reality: Obama has always considered himself the Anti-Reagan — he would not only undo the Reagan coalition and the Reagan era, but do what
Continue readingMy fellow Watcher’s Council member, Greg, who blogs at Rhymes with Right, has put together the ultimate smack-down for those (especially those journalists) who argue that the Second Amendment extends only to muskets and other weapons in use when Congress enacted the Bill of Rights: Carrying this irrefutable logic over
Continue readingGawker, an internet gossip site, has now published a 446-page document identifying every licensed gun owner in New York City. Judging by the comments left at Gawker’s site (which I will not dignify with a link), people are not happy. And they have reason to be unhappy: Referring to the
Continue readingToday’s big story the new tax bill that Obama jetted off to Hawaii before signing, but that will soon (and inevitably) become the law of the land. I don’t see any surprises. I knew that we’d get hit hard and so we have. I gather that sequestration has now been
Continue readingOne of the books that saw me traverse from Left to Right was Myrna Blyth’s Spin Sisters: How the Women of the Media Sell Unhappiness — and Liberalism — to the Women of America, which exposed the profound Leftist tilt of decidedly non-political magazines. Until reading that, I’d never thought
Continue readingI’ve spent today being very productive in a non-blogging way, but there are still a few things I’d like to share with you. If you’re feeling in a giving mood, the National Review needs help in its fight against the lawsuit Michael Mann (yes, climate change Michael Mann) filed against
