REFLECTIONS

Cassandra has always been a heroine of mine.  So I can’t help but enjoy stories such as this:  http://worldnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/05/16/11729795-greeks-withdraw-894-million-in-a-day-is-this-beginning-of-a-run-on-banks?lite Yes I know the collapse of the European economy will be bad for all of us.  But watching the Euro-Socialists run out of other people’s money is so much fun I want to munch popcorn while [...]

If you aren’t reading Caroline Glick, the internet is wasted on you.  http://www.jewishworldreview.com/0412/glick042012.php3

So the Brit at NR http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/296004/derb-and-discourse-john-osullivan  has joined the Canadian at NR http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/295591/re-derb-mark-steyn in condemming the firing of John Derbyshire. That’s not surprising.  Canada and Great Britain have jettisoned free speech for Political Correctness.  Mark Steyn was actually prosecuted for committing the heinous offense of writing his opinions in public.    Of course they would take threats to free excerisice of speech more seriously; [...]

Many are shocked to discover that a black President has made race relations worse in this country.  http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/140594/  I predicted this four years ago.  It is not the color of the President’s skin that matters it is the content of his politics.  Liberals have been dividing this country up for so long I can’t imagine [...]

This article is quite disturbing.  http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/292970/obama-casually-offers-israel-goodies-bomb-iran-iafteri-election-daniel-foster  The president……  has apparently offered Israel sweeteners for delaying any strike against Tehran’s nuclear facilities until after the election. FromThe New York Post: The President’s lack of concern for Israel is not disturbing, I take that for granted.  The President’s lack of concern for the USA also not disturbing. [...]

So the Left is doing what the Left does best, indeed the only thing the Left can do, they have changed the subject to focus on one of their “poor” victims.  http://www.jammiewf.com/2012/sandra-flukes-appearance-is-no-fluke/   If you think this entitled, spoiled, selfish brat is a victim, well let me take you to your local children’s shelter so you [...]

All day today I’ve been reading liberals and libertarians lie.   The most recent is at National Review (remember when NR was a conservative magazine?) http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/291628/we-re-already-europe-michael-tanner#comment-495035  In this article Cato’s Michael Tanner outright lies:  And Republicans? They are busy debating the pros and cons of birth control This is the same lie I heard from liberals [...]

Libertarians are such stinking hypocrites.  They talk endlessly about the evils of big government, but when it comes down to elections they will fling themselves on the biggest government they can find, as long as it promises to protect them from the big, bad, social conservative.  Roger Simon over at PJ Media http://pjmedia.com/rogerlsimon/2012/02/09/the-santorum-surprise/2/  joins in the [...]

It isn’t half time, it’s the free skate.  Unfortunately in the short program of President Obama, the US fell on all three jump passes and a spin.  We are dead last going into the free skate. Which would be fine if we had a GOP nominee with a quad.  Gov. Perry’s job creation in the [...]

No, sorry if I got your hopes up I am not converting, I am taking a stand for Liberty, the First Amendment, for whatever shreds of The Constitution are left in this country.  The Secretary of Health and Human Services as decreed that the Catholic church will surrender it’s principles in the name of the god [...]

So the Prime Minister of France hates the Prime Minister of Israel http://pjmedia.com/spengler/2011/11/08/what-does-sarkozy-mean-by-the-term-liar/  If you’re shocked you must be new here.  French hatred of the Jewish people is a very old story.  The delicious irony of course is that it is French hatred of the Jewish people that created the Zionist movement in the first place.   http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Dreyfus_Affair If it weren’t [...]

PJTV has video of some left wing racists saying that “conservatives like Cain because he knows his place.” Meaning he is an Uncle Tom. http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2011/10/28/dem-wit-gop-likes-cain-because-hes-a-black-man-who-knows-his-place/ As always The biggest problem with the liberals ravings is reality.   Mr. Cain’s place is CEO of a nationwide business. Which, if it means what the libereral says, instead [...]

Instapundit linked to a story about the green jobs boondogle in Newsweek  http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2011/10/16/obama-s-green-energy-agenda-flop.html  The article does it’s cheery liberal best to call the boondoggle a worthy experiement.  But the best part is the closting quote by my very own Senator Barbara brainless Boxer “There’s always a risk when you fund innovation, but if we abandoned [...]

Over at National Review Online they printed up George Will’s comments on Herman Cain George Will on Cain: ‘He’s Sort of Strolling for President’ By NRO Staff Posted on October 16, 2011 6:41 P “We’re having a kind of Andy Warhol primary where everyone is leader for 15 minutes. And it’s Cain’s turn today. But it’s [...]

So now it is Governor Chris Christie who is going to save us?    A bad temper does not a conservative make.   Indeed a true conservative is always a gentleman, as President Reagan demonstrated.  If Christie is in the race I am going to have start campaigning for Romney or anyone else who looks [...]

Surely you didn’t think I could pass up a pun like that. http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/278268/cain-wins-florida-straw-poll-katrina-trinko Herman Cain has won the Florida Straw Poll? It’s terrible to tease me like that. Hermain Cain has consistently been the most committed to conservative principles in the GOP Debates. I haven’t mentioned him because I have always assumed the GOP establishment [...]

Gov. Perry’s support of in-state tuition for illegal aliens is a mistake. But no one mistake will keep me from voting for someone. No what makes Gov. Perry unacceptable is his defense. He gave his reasons for his position and that was all he needed to do. But he had to add that anyone who [...]
