Freedom of Speech, Liberal Style

Michelle Malkin continues her blogging of those activist/vandalism peacemakers who would protect the world from the scourge of American military might. In Minnesota, these tolerant individuals vandalized a recruiting station. The Star Trib reports: Several protesters who were part of a larger group of antiwar demonstrators at the University of Minnesota splased [...]

Problem of the MSM

I’m amazed that two of the Pulitzer Prizes in journalism were awarded to reporters who published classified information which compromised the efforts in the war on terrorism. One has to ask if it is right to publish sensitive information that may be received from an unelected intelligence bureaucrat. Would it be right (forget legalities) to [...]

Blow Hard Ted Opposes Wind Turbines

It is curious that a liberal like Ted Kennedy would oppose efforts aimed at saving the environment from global warming. After all, we’re ruining the globe with all our oil usage and any renewable fuel which reduces oil consumption should be welcome, right? Sure, as long as we don’t disturb the view [...]

Wow! Those were the days.

Here’s an article about an incident that occurred in baseball back in 1976. The Chicago Cubs were visiting Dodger Stadium. Rick Monday was in the outfield at the time. In many ways, this was the kind of matter-of-fact patriotism that was present in the average American. In between the top and [...]

Howard Dean and Religion

“The religious community has to decide whether they want to be tax exempt or involved in politics.” Those were the words of Howard Dean, Chairman of the Democratic Party at a recent CSMonitor breakfast. Imagine the chairman of the party in which every candidate shows up at some Baptist church around election time [...]
