The President doesn’t hate brown people

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

IMMIGRATION BILL FAQ Q. I’m concerned that the immigration bill focuses more on giving illegal immigrants amnesty than border protection. Does the President share these concerns? A. The President doesn’t hate brown people. Q. This isn’t a racial issue. Many people think this bill will only encourage more illegal immigration and leave our borders open […]

The Arrogance of the Global Warmers

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

Have you heard the remarks of NASA administrator Michael Griffin from an interview that he gave to National Proletariat Radio’s “Morning Edition” on global warming? Foxnews has an article on the interview, “NASA Chief Questions Whether Global Warming Is a Problem:” “To assume that it is a problem is to assume that the state of […]

Live-Blogging the Riots in Venezuela

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

Fox News’ Adam Housley has been covering the riots in Caracas, Venezuela for several days now, and his reports are amazing. Here’s a sample: People are crying and screaming. Grown men have tears spreading down their cheeks. The night is steamy and tempers begin the flare. People seem to understand that they have lost more […]

Melting Liberty

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

To President Bush, Senators Chambliss and Isakson: “There’s nothing conservative about selling out the country for cheap labor.” “There’s nothing conservative about demagoguing Americans who want the invasion stopped!“ “There’s nothing conservative about selling out the country for votes.” “There’s nothing conservative about rewarding lawbreakers while punishing law abiding citizens.” “Secure the Damned Border!”

Dick Morris is Factually WRONG

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

Dick Morris, who prides himself on being the foremost campaign strategist in the country, may indeed have great insight into political campaigns and trends; however, he needs to learn to get his facts straight. In his piece, “Republicans Should Back Immigration Compromise” he erroneously writes, Had the Republicans gotten it together to pass such a […]

The Left’s New Slavery

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

Don’t miss Ann Coulter’s column, “Importing a Slave Class:” Apparently, my position on immigration is that we must deport all 12 million illegal aliens immediately, inasmuch as this is billed as the only alternative to immediate amnesty. The jejune fact that we “can’t deport them all” is supposed to lead ineluctably to the conclusion that […]

It’s the Government, Stupid!

Monday, May 21st, 2007

(Hat tip: GPBurdell) Are you “mad as hell” about gas prices? Has the saturation bombing campaign by the MSM convinced you that the evil oil companies are screwing you at the pump? Let George Will help and read his article, “Government gouges you at the pump:” Pelosi announced herself “particularly concerned” that the highest price […]

Selling Out the Country to Criminals

Monday, May 21st, 2007

The people who have broken our laws and entered our country in defiance of our laughable “immigration laws” are not illegal immigrants — they are criminals. Immigration is a legal process. These criminals are not in any way participating in the process of legally immigrating; they are kicking down the door and helping themselves. If […]

Carbon Debits

Saturday, May 19th, 2007

If the goal is to piss off hypocritical, eco-wannabes like Al Gore, then CarbonCreditKillers.com should do the trick (HT: MM): The reason we sell Carbon Debits is simple – we want to take away the pathetic excuse of Carbon Credits from those liberals who hide their shame filled lives behind money-bought lunacy. Carbon Credits are […]

Greenpeace Building Noah’s Ark

Thursday, May 17th, 2007

(Hat tip: cyclops) Greenpeace activists have started construction on a replica of Noah’s Ark, 8,200 feet above sea level, in one of the most dramatic ever pleas to world leaders to take far-reaching and urgent action to avoid catastrophic global warming. Many people believe that Mount Ararat is the place where Noah’s Ark landed after […]

Pelosi’s “Nuclear Option”

Wednesday, May 16th, 2007

Independents flock to the polls to support “the most honest and most open government” that Nancy Pelosi promised. (Thanks, HR) National Review’s Jonah Goldberg writes on “Pelosi’s Gambit:” DEMOCRATS TO CHANGE 185 YEAR-OLD HOUSE RULE TO ALLOW TAX HIKES WITHOUT HAVING TO VOTE May 16, 2007 In a stunning move, House Democrats today revealed they […]

American Universities are Constitution-Free Zones

Tuesday, May 15th, 2007

The insanity occurring at American universities is staggering! Here are three stories that are just unbelievable. The bottom line is that the Constitution of the United States, along with many of our laws, simply doesn’t apply on the campuses of American universities. In these bastions of liberalism, the Bill of Rights is null and void. […]

President Gore?

Tuesday, May 15th, 2007

John Derbyshire has the Gorey details: And if you think Al Gore’s nutty preoccupation with what he calls “the climate crisis” is going to turn people off, you’re not paying attention. Global warming is not just a new fad for liberals and the liberal-inclined; it’s also a welcome refuge from the previous fad, “diversity,” just […]

Islamberg

Saturday, May 12th, 2007

(Hat tip: powerline) Dr. Paul Williams at the entrance of Islamberg This is a remarkable story. An Islamic compound in upstate New York complete with military-style training courses and shooting ranges. Tired of the city? No problem. Spend a weekend playing at Camp Jihad. Ah, freedom. Is this a great country or what? “Radical Muslim […]

Hanson on Fort Dix

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

Victor Davis Hanson hits the nail on the head yet again: The Fort Dix arrests raise the same-old/same-old script. X-numbers of jihadists are caught trying to plot assassination, or to attack an airliner, or to take out a mall. They all will deny it. Someone like CAIR will jump in, perhaps with the ACLU, alleging […]

Hospitality + Open Borders = Terrorists

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

Don’t miss Michelle Malkin’s coverage of the Fort Dix terrorist plot here and here. Also, check out her column from today, “Jihadists Exploit Our Hospitality and Open Borders . . . Again:” Well, here is the thanks we get. Eight years ago, America opened its arms to tens of thousands of ethnic Albanian refugees from […]

Will Anything Really Change in France?

Monday, May 7th, 2007

Check out Mark Steyn’s column on the victory of conservative Nicolas Sarkozy, “Shortest of Honeymoons:” In my recent book, whose title escapes me, I cite one of those small anecdotes that seems almost too perfect a distillation of Continental politics. It was a news item from 2005: A fellow in Marseilles was charged with fraud […]

Environmentalist Quandary

Friday, May 4th, 2007

Don’t laugh, this is a serious problem! What’s an environmentalist to do when their time comes? Cremation is no good — think of all that carbon that is released into the atmosphere! Burial takes up precious land, not to mention all the sedimentation that graveyard runoff may cause. What is a zero-emissions, no-footprint, act-locally environmentalist […]

Sowell’s “Random Thoughts”

Friday, May 4th, 2007

I especially enjoy reading Thomas Sowell’s “Random Thoughts” essays because they make more sense than most people’s non-random confusion. Sowell’s latest column is no exception. Here are the gems: Too many people in positions of responsibility act as if these are just positions of opportunity — for themselves. The ones who simply steal money probably […]
