I was listening to NPR this morning (like the guys at Men Are Not Potatoes, I do this just to get my blood pressure up–better than a cup of coffee). I heard a few things that I was just pounding the steering wheel about and shouting ‘Duh’… And so I shall share now that I’ve… Continue reading

Being in academe myself, I read this article by Ron Lipsman on American Thinker and nodded like a bobble-head doll the whole time. Below is his final observation but you should read the whole thing if you want to gain some insight into the groupthink that is higher education culture in the United States. I… Continue reading

Okay, in the ultimate stupidity (and one more reason why it’s a good thing that CNN is getting picketed next week), CNN actually FACT-CHECKED the Saturday Night Live skit spoofing Obama that contained a list of things he hasn’t done. For pity’s sake people!! Presidents from Ford to the present have been spoofed, skewered, and… Continue reading

The FTC has unveiled rules that would require bloggers to state any conflict of interest they might have when reviewing or endorsing products. Not withstanding the fact that, unlike many other communities, the blogosphere is pretty self-policing (think Wikipedia and how long incorrect information stays up before someone jumps on it) the Feds think it’ll… Continue reading

Via Gateway Pundit comes the news that Obama will not meet with the Dalai Lama when he visits DC. Let’s see here… The folks that Obama has kowtowed to, including his bow and scrape to a Saudi prince are the dictators and despots of the modern world–generally folks who stand against the type of freedom… Continue reading

I was reading Tam’s posting on the sickening Polanski case and how Hollywood and the press have been complicit in defending child rape and something occurred to me. The press stopped being the “Hounds of News” when they started putting pretty talking heads up on the screen instead of actual reporters. With ‘newsanchors’ basically being… Continue reading

American Thinker has several VERY good articles (as always) but here’s a few that caught my eye. The first one, by Greg Lewis, discusses Obama’s ‘beta-male’ behavior and how his mannerisms show the homo sapiens version of canid submissive behavior. As a person raised around chows and at dog shows a lot, I found this… Continue reading

The text below comes via The Bookworm Room: “If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn`t buy one.If a liberal doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed. If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn`t eat meat.If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone. If a conservative sees… Continue reading

This video is brought to you via Powerline (h.t. The Breda Fallacy). I have to admit I laughed, but mainly from delight, because I thought it was funny that the writers on one of the most liberal shows are catching a clue. It made me sad too, because this very dangerous idiot is in place… Continue reading

Via Western Rifle Shooters Assn, a link to RedState with what they’re terming the money quote of the month. Obama’s envoy to the Sudan, Retired Air Force Major Scott Gration, likens countries to small children “Kids, countries, they react to gold stars, smiley faces, handshakes, agreements, talk, engagement.” “We’ve got to think about giving out… Continue reading
