Via Insty, Ann Althouse takes a dig at Mark Moulitsas of the Daily Kos for not knowing the difference between vice and vise.  For example, politicians are always getting caught in a vice, but it’s not because they’ve gotten their heads stuck in a vise.  Combining that with Martha Coakley’s campaigners misspelling her home state… Continue reading

Of course I’m talking about Hillary Clinton who has been strangely absent from the public eye for the past two months or so (no I really didn’t miss her either).  Either the Obamanaughts sent her off for reprogramming or it was like the movie ‘Dave’ where they sent the Vice President on a tour of… Continue reading

Saw a guy wearing a tee-shirt that said the following: ” Straight White Republican Male:  How else can I piss you off today?” I thought adding ‘gunowner’ would round it out nicely and would torque off the offenssensitivity crowd (scroll down to find the cartoon). Continue reading

I’ve been following the special election in Massachusetts since I lived there for five years.  Scott Brown, the Republican candidate for the Senate seat that has been held by an interim senator placeholder since Kennedy’s death is, by all accounts, kicking some major butt.  He raised over $1 million in a single day (yesterday) and… Continue reading

Via Insty, there is an article in Reason entitled P.C. Never Died that talks about the censorship and indoctrination programs in place at our institutions (a more than apt term) of higher learning.  An except from this excellent snapshot by Greg Lukianoff look at how college campuses squelch free speech and, more importantly, free thought:… Continue reading

I was talking with Mr. B on the way to work today and started off on a bit of a rant.  Over in the People’s Republic of Illinois at the University of Illinois, home of the politically-connected admissions system, they are having to furlough all faculty and staff a day a month for the next… Continue reading

I’ve been mulling this around for quite a few days, but this post at American Thinker helped me to crystalize it.  As Joel J. Sprayregen, points out, there were several attacks on Christians around Christmas by Muslims.  It seems that others’ holy days are specifically used as a type of attack calendar.  The thing that… Continue reading

I was listening to Don Wade and Roma this morning on WLS and they had former Governor (now talk show host and celebrity apprentice) Rod Blagojevich on.  Most of what he said was self-serving blather since he’s trying to kill any jury pool for his trial but something that he said was actually kind of… Continue reading

Just watched “White Nights” with Mikhail Baryshnikov and Gregory Hines for the umpteenth time.  Besides being a good reminder about the bad old days of Soviet Russia, watching Hines and Baryshnikov dance in their prime was mesmerizing.  Two styles that were so different–tap and ballet–but melded so well when performed by two artists at their… Continue reading

I still am listening to election ads from the People’s Republic of Illinois in the morning on my way to work (BTW, never got to work today due to weather but had a LOVELY two hour sojourn on our Indiana state highways).  But it did give me a lot more time to listen to the… Continue reading
