REFLECTIONS

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Instapundit made me explode again today.  http://pajamasmedia.com/instapundit/127073/  I was so outraged I sent him a letter and while composing it I figured the answer to why I despise libertarians so much more than liberals.  This is my letter to Prof. Reynolds.  Cutting spending 43% and getting social issues off the GOP platform works for you?  [...]

From Barnes & Nobles, I downloaded the sample of Mark Steyn’s newest book, After America: Get Ready for the Armageddon, It is a nasty remembrance of the mess humankind keeps getting itself into constantly throughout its history. Some quotes from it: “There is the moral of all human tales; ‘tis but the same rehersal of [...]

“I keep thinking that insanity is a state where a person can’t tell what’s real.  Well what’s real now is insane and if I accepted it as real, I’d have to lose my mind wouldn’t I?”  Eddie Willers in Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand Yes I admit it I succumbed to peer pressure; I read [...]

So the Sec. of Energy has decided its the government’s job to forbid the American consumer from wasting their money.  http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/271470/light-motif-mark-steyn Well if the government must ban wastes of money I suggest he start with , DVDs of the 2nd Star Wars trilogy,  tickets to any movie with a numeral in the title or starring Sean [...]

We are being constantly informed that  same sex marriage  will not lead to legalizing polygamy or any other derivation of marriage.  I do not know why.   Over at PJTV.com Vodkapundit called for legalizing polygamy.  He didn’t know that was what he was doing.  But in an episode of Trifecta he said that marriage should be only [...]

Liberals are so maddening, so utterly removed from reality sometimes I think they are deliberately trying to Gaslight us.  If they just keep saying crazy things sooner or later we will all just lose our minds.  Today’s mind boggling liberal upside down craziness comes in the form of an absurd column at Pajamas Media about [...]

In a blatant bleg for attention I bring you pictures from the brand new Lego Star Wars Miniland in Legoland, California:

I had no idea just how many friends I have who are Japanese, or have family in Japan, until yesterday when I started anxiously watching twitter and facebook to make sure they and their loved ones were okay.   Besides the many Japanese skaters I know personally there are a host of others whose careers I [...]

The conservative civil war over Obama’s intentions is as I said before perfectly ridiculous http://marlettsmith.com/blog/index.php/2011/02/23/by-his-deeds/ But now that Obama himself has said he would prefer being a communist dictator  http://weaselzippers.us/2011/03/11/obama-it-would-be-so-much-easier-to-be-the-president-of-china/  will Medved and Ferguson and the rest of the wimps please shut up already. He likes Marxism, he likes dictatorial power, he hates being accountable [...]

Many people are astonished today to discover that NPR is loaded with anti-Christian and anti-Jewish bigots.   I am astonished at the astonishment.  The Left is overflowing with demagoguery, anti-Western values  and demonizing their opposition.  We KNOW this.  We’ve known this for years.  Yes now we have recorded evidence and that is great.  But there was [...]

This post by IowaHawk comparing Texas schools and Wisconsin schools is so well done I think we may have to require Iowahawk to be serious at least once a week.  http://iowahawk.typepad.com/iowahawk/2011/03/longhorns-17-badgers-1.html
