Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Whether it’s the MSM’s response to the Bobulinski claims or leftists still severing Facebook contacts, Democrats are immature narcissists. In the run-up to the 2016 election, Scott Adams often spoke about the way in which Democrats and Republicans were watching two different movies about American life. In the Republican movie,

AG Bill Barr took to the media to task for the insane travesty that is their effort to smear President Trump for his response to the Wuhan Virus. Barr had particularly harsh criticism of the media’s effort to discredit hydroxychloroquine as a potentially helpful drug (when used as part of

Neither Lauer nor Moore are in court so neither has a right to legal due process. Both, tho’, are subject to either business or political due process. Is there anyone out there reading this post who does not know that Matt Lauer was abruptly fired this morning for sexual improprieties
Continue readingI’m still clearing out the inbox, but I’ve also got some current stuff in here, so I consider this a round-up. I’ll just dive in, with the stuff presented here in pretty random order: Last Sunday, a New York Times op-ed addressed “Why People Don’t Donate Their Kidneys.” Sally Satel,
Continue readingNPR didn’t mean to offer a perfect example of how an unfalsifiable, infallible theory works. It’s stated goal was to have people better understand what a polar vortex is. However, when it chose to interview “Andrew Freedman, senior science writer for Climate Central, an independent non-profit organization that researches and
Continue readingObama is tanking in the polls, but NPR says not to worry. While Bush’s tanking in the polls was a sign that he was a lame duck, Obama’s tanking in the polls is meaningless. The reasons given are insanely stupid: He’s never been effective with Congress; bad poll numbers are
Continue readingIt wasn’t until I crossed the political Rubicon that I started appreciating the irony of the intro to so many PBS and NPR shows. Turn on Masterpiece Theater and a measured male voice announces, “This program is made possible in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a private corporation

After politely decimating Ginsburg’s word choice, Goldberg
Continue readingI drove Mr. Bookworm’s car today. That means that, when I turned on the radio, I got NPR. I don’t listen to NPR anymore. I find very dull the carefully packaged stories, all of which advance, with greater or lesser subtlety, a Progressive political agenda. I prefer freewheeling talk radio,

Rather than re-write this post, I’m simply highlighting the explosive little factoid hidden in the

(Although NPR is already phrasing it as a resignation — a forced resignation,
Continue readingI’m actually grateful to NPR. It was its unbelievably biased Israel coverage that helped me make the break with my reflexive liberalism and take a long, hard look at my political beliefs and party affiliation. Nevertheless, it irks me no end that my taxpayer money funds NPR, PBS and local
Continue readingWhen I left law school, a switch tripped in my brain. Whereas before I’d listened only to top twenty music, I suddenly got bored with music and switched to news. But not just any news. NPR news. Whenever I was in the car, I had my radio tuned to my

While the percentage of Muslims who will be threats on airplanes is small, the percentage of mass murderers who board airplanes and happen
