Good for a laugh

Pull the other one

Time magazine once again proves that when the majority of the media describe themselves as "moderate," that's what the general public calls "liberal." Try this test for yourself before you check out how Time magazine chose to categorize our remaining Supreme Court justices. Classify each justice as a "Staunch conservative," "Moderate Conservative," "Moderate Liberal" or […]

The Britain we remember

Courtesy Target Centermass comes this bit from Ronald Reagan. The British people know that, given strong leadership, time and a little bit of hope, the forces of good ultimately rally and triumph over evil. Here among you is the cradle of self-government, the Mother of Parliaments. Here is the enduring greatness of the British contribution […]

Haters

It never takes long for this libel to take flight: "The Jews knew about the London attacks before they happened." John Cole and Jeff Goldstein respond (see Update 16). Also peddling hatred and stupidity today were Al Franken and The Boston Globe's Tom Oliphant. My favorite bit: Franken: This is where I am going to […]

Paynter's column basically claimed that Marine recruiters had attempted to Shanghai a Seattle-area teen into the Corps -- a distortion of reality […]

Judith Miller in jail

New York Times reporter Judith Miller is in jail for refusing to reveal the name of one of her sources to a grand jury. This is as it should be. The grand jury has every right to demand the name from her; she has every right to refuse to give it. It's really too bad […]

What the?

This is the most bizarre "editor's note" I've seen in years. The Op-Ed page in some copies of Wednesday's newspaper carried an incorrect version of the below article about military recruitment. The article also briefly appeared on NYTimes.com before it was removed. The writer, an Army reserve officer, did not say, "Imagine my surprise the […]

Hero, patriot, Medal of Honor winner -- Stockdale dead at 81

The Union-Tribune obituary is here. Stockdale, the highest-ranking naval officer captured during the war, was forced to wear heavy, viselike leg irons for two years. He was tortured and spent four years in solitary confinement. To avoid being used in a propaganda film, Stockdale smashed his face with a mahogany stool. After the death of […]
