Friday's Wall Street Journal editorial page highlights a Kansas problem that we Californians are familiar with. Governor Kathleen Sebelius calls it "a moral obligation," as though she were opposing crimes against humanity. This is a reference to coal companies guilty of nothing more than attempting to provide power to consumers. But their misfortunes include emitting […]

Media mogul and nutjob Ted Turner has a ranch on which he raises animals which emit a lot of greenhouse gases. However, he does not propose to do away with his herds to save the planet. No, he predicts doom and gloom and humans resorting to cannibalism to survive once the Earth warms. Channeling my […]

The newest Pig Book is out and if you're interested in fiscal responsibility, then it certainly tells you something about the presidential hopefuls. According to the Pig Book ("The Book Washington Does Not Want You to Read"), New York Sen. Hillary Clinton is our new grand national oinker among presidential contenders for most pork barrel […]

Thursday's Wall Street Journal has an enlightening editorial on American economic history -- history that Democrats would do well to learn before they repeat it. To hear Mr. Schumer and his fellow-traveling columnists tell it, Hoover's great policy blunder was to do nothing, all the while insisting that everything was fine. But the problem with […]

National Journal rated Sen. Barack Obama as the most left-wing member of the Senate. Some media have attempted to portray him as a moderate -- a moderate, as Powerline noted, with no one to his left. Well, the guys at the Politico have dug up this survey [PDF format] from Obama's run for the Illinois […]

I've got some advice for Sen. Barack Obama when it comes to questions about his longtime pastor: pretend you can't hear the question. On Friday, Obama appeared on ABC's "The View" and explained the Rev. Jeremiah Wright controversy this way: "Had the reverend not retired and had he not acknowledged that what he had said […]

I'm a recent inductee to the Neil Gaiman admiration society, joining after watching the movie and reading the book "Stardust." After finishing Stardust, I dove into "Neverwhere," a story that takes place in London Above and London Below. London Above is what you see on the telly, movies, etc. London Below is an alternate reality […]

If it weren't for the fact that the mainstream media storyline is that the burning of fossil fuels is causing the destruction of the planet, then this would likely have led last month's evening newscasts. America is sitting on top of a super massive 200 billion barrel Oil Field that could potentially make America Energy […]
