The James T. Kirk solution?

The New York Times has a very interesting article on time travel and the possibility of paradox. The article is accessible even for those who are not sciencephiles, but there's one thing about it that troubles me. But what about killing your grandfather? In a well-ordered universe, that would be a paradox and shouldn't be […]

The legislation would clarify government’s exercise of its power of eminent domain to be limited only for public use. ‘Public use’ shall not be construed to include economic development.

More on the Establishment Clause

Over at Radioblogger.com there is a transcript of a portion of yesterday's Hugh Hewitt show and a discussion/debate between John Eastman and Erwin Chemerinsky over the Supreme Court decisions.

An interesting point

A lot of Gitmo critics have pooh-poohed the idea that we could be getting any sorts of useful information from the terrorists at the facility since they've been there now for three-plus years.

Real torture

The Dumb Dick Durbins of the world should take a look at what real torture looks like -- that done by the communist Chinese. Ngawang Sangdrol was just 13 when she was first imprisoned by China in Tibet. She was so small her prison guards found it easy to pick her up by the legs […]

Most would say to provide an education, but Sports Illustrated's Peter King brings up an interesting point regarding the NCAA's baseball schedule. Undergraduate classes at the University of Florida ended on April 20. That was 69 days ago.

Trying on my tinfoil hat

I made my way over to the Democrat National Committee Web site last week in the wake of the release of their report showing that no vote fraud occurred in Ohio. This isn't about that. This is about channeling moonbats. You see, when I went to the DNC Web site, I encountered this graphic: It's […]
