Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
The government shutdown, anti-Semitism in the Democrat Party, abortion, and a mad, bad media — no matter I busy my day is, I must blog about them. Did you know that a chicken without a head made it into an early edition of Ripley’s Believe It or Not? It’s true.

(picture H/T Ace of Spades Pet Thread) (More doggie fun here) Anyone getting the impression that perhaps the people teaching our young minds

When it comes to Obamacare, I’m all for Occam’s Razor, which argues that the simplest approach — repeal — is the best, subject to limited grandfathering. Before I introduce you to a few ideas I have about Obamacare, I have a true story for you. A pro-Obamacare friend of mine
Continue readingYes, it’s that time again — when I go through my Progressive friends’ Facebook posts, culling the most stupid or irritating posters. Before I do that, though, I want to quote John Hinderaker, who was overwhelmed by the mean-spirited, illogical banality of a Leftist’s tweet. Before getting to the tweet,
Continue readingA friend tipped me off to a Facebook post that’s gone viral. Practically within minutes of learning that, while Congress was doing nothing to stem the millions of dollars heading to illegal aliens, it would cut veterans’ benefits, Chuck Wooten, Chief Master Sargeant, USAF (ret.), got a fundraising letter from
Continue readingThis keeps cropping up on Facebook and every time I see it, I find it irritating. There’s something horribly medieval about reducing women to their sexual organs. After all, when you think about it, the only thing that Obama has done for women is to order employers to provide insurance
Continue readingWith the election nearing, the Facebook frenzy is accelerating. I got this from a Facebook acquaintance: Lots of food for thought, there: Ryan voted to end funding for Planned Parenthood. Ryan’s vote is completely in line with Romney’s insistence that a broke U.S. government should repeatedly ask itself “Is this
Continue readingWith the election drawing near, the pace of political posting on Facebook is rapidly picking up. I found two interest things just the other day. The first thing a friend put up is “The Worst Lies Paul Ryan Told.” What quickly becomes apparent is that, well, Paul Ryan didn’t really
Continue readingDo you remember Jennifer Granholm at the DNC, when she was yelling and gesticulating wildly? She was a 33 rpm record playing at 78. Watching the Vice Presidential debate tonight, it was obvious that Joe Biden had broken into her medicine cabinet and taken twice the dosage. Either that, or
Continue readingWrapping up a project that’s already taken me too long, so I’ve promised myself no blogging until it’s done. Meanwhile, here are some quick links: Explaining the Obama fundraising scandal. Cities can’t support themselves? Never mind. Force suburban homeowners to pay for them. It’s all good with the Obama administration.
Continue readingPaul Ryan: College graduates should not have to live out their 20s in their childhood bedrooms, staring up at fading Obama posters and wondering when they can move out and get going with life.
Continue readingWith Paul Ryan shooting across the political sky with a blazing light, the Left is getting worried. The latest attack is to trot out Catholics who claim that, because Paul Ryan objects to wealth redistribution, he’s anti-Catholic. After all, say these Catho-Lefto pundits, what could be more generous than allowing
Continue readingSeniors will hate Ryan, we’re told, because he’s going to destroy their Medicare (never mind that this isn’t true). Young people will hate Romney and Ryan, we’re told, because they’re uncool white men, who want to destroy all the entitlements this generation has grown up expecting. Except…. Except today I
Continue readingWithin seconds of Romney’s announcement that Ryan would be his running mate, the chatter started. Democrats expressed delight, because they see Ryan’s stance on Medicare as one they can use to portray Romney and Ryan as Satan incarnate. A couple of years ago, they showed Ryan pushing grandma’s wheelchair off
