The California Legislature, in defiance of a popularly enacted prohibition on same sex marriage just five years ago, has decided a solid majority of California voters can pound sand. I don't know that yesterday's vote will result in a backlash against Democrats in the next election cycle, what with the gerrymandered districts which guarantee that […]

If he's breathing he's lying. That's something that Powerline's John Hinderaker found out when he went to check out New York Times columnist Krugman's assertion that USS Bataan, a multipurpose amphibious assault ship, was never mobilized to help victims of Hurricane Katrina. Don't expect a correction to be forthcoming. The New York Times editorial page […]

Fox News' Neil Cavuto has New Age wacko Deepak Chopra on to talk about Hurricane Katrina's aftermath or something -- the second Chopra came on I turned the channel. Why? Because Chopra is a frauda. I first saw Chopra on the Oprah Winfrey show in the summer of 1993. I was renting a room while […]

In the wake of William Rehnquist's death and John Roberts' subsequent shift to filling the chief justice vacancy, senators Chuck Schumer, John Corzine and Teddy Kennedy have said that this raises the stakes for his nomination.

On "Fox News Sunday" this morning, reporter James Rosen had a short piece on the late chief justice and relayed a humorous story. When interviewing William Rehnquist four years ago, Rosen asked him why Americans sued each other so much. Rosen's father is a personal-injury lawyer -- apparently well-known enough that Rehnquist knew of him. […]

Ever since the magnitude of Hurricane Katrina's destruction in New Orleans and the Mississippi coast became clear, the political left has been in heightened outrage mode. First it was the Bush administration's callous budget cuts to flood control and levee projects in New Orleans. Unfortunately, these sorts of federal funding decisions are fundamentally political -- […]

Chief Justice William Rehnquist died last night -- making a bad night at work worse and causing me to fail to take my state-mandated 30 minute lunch break. This has had the predictible effect of causing the Loony Left to go into super tinfoil hat mode and other assorted disgusting commentary. The hate is palpable.
