Holier than thou

Slate's William Saletan has an excellent piece that the Democrat presidential hopefuls should heed. I'm not excusing the games Republicans play. But by projecting all evil onto Republicans, Democrats spread the same political disease: the notion that you don't have to be wary of lying or cheating unless the other side is doing it. Lying […]

California Recall

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals (surprise!) called a halt to the recall election slated for Oct. 7.

Interns

The San Diego Union-Tribune has a board on the third floor newsroom where they put photos and brief bios of new employees and interns. One of the Union-Tribune's newest interns is a student at UC San Diego. This individual is majoring in "critical gender roles." No, I don't know what the heck that is, nor […]

Cult of celebrity

Fox News Watch's Eric Burns takes aim at celebrity worship in his latest column, especially the kind committed by James Lipton and his "Inside the Actor's Studio." Burns is correct in his assessment of Lipton: If he had been alive in the Middle Ages, he would have earned his living by licking the boots of […]
