Church and state

I didn't approve of judge Roy Moore's move to put a Ten Commandments monument in an Alabama courthouse -- he was just trying to pick a fight. However, the repeated lawsuits by bitter, disgruntled atheists to remove anything that anyone could consider Christian from the public square is just as bad. Unfortunately, while Judge Moore […]

Lazy with the language

It shouldn't come as any surprise that The New York Times editorial page writers use language in such a way that it becomes meaningless. Case in point is this editorial in last week's paper on a proposed cloning ban at the U.N. Seeing as how it is the U.N., any measure would be mainly meaningless […]

Rooney blows the whistle

CBS curmudgeon Andy Rooney echoes what all of CBS News' critics have been saying ever since Dan Rather's bogus Bush National Guard documents story ran. "I am very critical of some of the people at CBS who make it apparent what their political leanings are," Rooney said. "That's what happened to this thing of Dan […]

Last night's big winners

Who were the biggest winners last night? ABC and the NFL. With a hockey game breaking out at the Pacers/Pistons game, the dropped towel from Monday Night Football will be completely forgotten. ESPN showed the brawl over and over again on SportsCenter and it's certainly the biggest, ugliest fight I've ever seen in professional sports. […]

Useless U.N.

Sometimes the United Nations is even worse than useless. Today, U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan admitted what the news media has been reporting for a year -- that U.N. "peacekeepers" in the Congo have been sexually abusing women and children they were supposed to protect.

Cleaning up the editorial cartoons

The Washington Post has decided to follow The New York Times' lead and stop running "cartoonist" Ted Rall's disgusting drawings. Rall said he thinks the site dropped his work because of a Nov. 4 cartoon he did showing a drooling, mentally handicapped student taking over a classroom. "The idea was to draw an analogy to […]

A little help

This quote from yesterday's dedication ceremony for the Clinton Presidential Library just begs for a snarky comment. The library "is like my husband: it's open, it's expansive, it's welcoming, it's filled with life." – Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton Please feel free to make use of the comments.

Security rounds

I posted a short note earlier this week on the video showing a Marine shooting an insurgent in Fallujah who was feigning death. I'm watching last night's "O'Reilly Factor" and Bill has a naive and dangerous Kenneth Roth of Human Rights Watch on suggesting that the Marine should face a court-martial for his actions. (Personally, […]

Revisionist history

Al Hunt's column in today's Wall Street Journal is entitled "McCain-Feingold Did Its Job" -- an analysis that is laughable to say the least. [Link requires paid subscription.] The most compelling case for the success of the McCain-Feingold campaign-finance measure is the case that was made against it. This was a passionately contested national election, […]

Chris Matthews -- not the sharpest tool in the shed

Monday night on MSNBC's "Hardball" program, Chris Matthews had the posed the following question to a guest in connection with the shooting of a possibly unarmed insurgent feigning death: Well, let me ask you about this. If this were the other side, and we were watching an enemy soldier -- a rival, I mean they're […]
