Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
If you like Trump’s accomplishments and hate the Dems’ Kavanaugh circus, vote strategically this November. Here are some ideas for the mid-term election. We’re slightly less than a month away from the mid-term election. For those who have put off thinking about it, it’s time! As a nation, we are

I wake up happy every day in Trump’s America because I’m convinced that I’m watching a wonderful documentary in which America and Americans are thriving. One of the points Scott Adams makes repeatedly is that reality is an essentially fluid concept. In order to make sense of the world, we

Bill Whittle explains as only he can why Progressives are hating on Kanye and I offer some fact-based reasons why more blacks should follow Kanye’s lead. Bill Whittle is out with a new video looking at the terrible thought crime Hip-Hop star Kanye West committed against the Democrat establishment. As

A trip through a few days worth of my Facebook posts shows that, with little effort, I can expose Proggies to ideas and facts they usually miss or ignore. Of late, between paying work, family demands, and a touch of the blecchies (not the flu, thank goodness, but I wasn’t

Does it get any better, after Donald Trump’s spectacularly successful first year, to watch him “Shake It Off,” Taylor Swift style? I missed last year this cute Auto-Tune video, which gets Trump to sing a verse and chorus from Taylor Swift’s Shake It Off. I don’t know if I would

The proggies are trying hard to hide the fact that Obama’s economy was pathetic and that Trumps’ economy is already setting records that win elections. Always nice to see Ron, isn’t it? That clip is from 1980, when Ronald Reagan ran on a promise to cure President Carter’s “economic malaise.” I

Trump, if he resuscitates the American economy, if he gives economic life back to the working class, he will be unbeatable in 2018 and 2020. Democrats, now not but a municipal power, will be buried. Fortunately, Trump’s job is not hard. Drop corporate income tax rates from 35%, the highest in
Continue readingOne of my favorite daily reads is James Taranto’s Best of the Web Today and one of my favorite features is the section Taranto labels “Fox Butterfield, Is That You?” The reference is to Fox Butterfield, a journalist, who gained fame for labeling as a paradox a statement in which the two factors

However, I had the chance to read a few good things: Ken Braun: The real unemployment is much higher and most Americans know it: Regardless of reasons, the net effect of a steadily rising adult population and sharply
Continue readingWhen the CBO announced that Obamacare was going to have a deleterious impact on jobs over the next few years (as in 2.5 million fewer people in the work force), those opposed to Obamacare not unnaturally glommed on to those numbers as proof that Obamacare is an economic disaster. After

She was responding to a reporter’s question regarding the fact that PBS asked the Democrats to take down an add using Big Bird (emphasis mine): We have received that request [from PBS].
