Liberals in search of a new idea

The San Diego Union-Tribune's James Goldsborough continues the bogus argument that one must have served in the military in order to support using the military to "kill people and break things." Bush, who knows so little about the world, is allowing people who have never fought and never served to define policy. A speech-writer dreamed […]

Krugman and perspective

Sometimes I just have to shake my head after reading Paul Krugman columns. You've got to wonder exaclty what goes through this man's head. Our leaders and much of the media tell us that we're a nation at war. But that was a bad metaphor from the start, and looks worse as time goes by. […]

A return to sanity and an omen of things to come?

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which previously brought you that atheist hit "The Pledge of Allegiance is Unconstitutional," has ruled that a public school near Seattle violated a student's rights by refusing to give her Bible club the same rights and privileges granted other student groups. The ruling by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court […]

Bill O'Reilly redux

The Wall Street Journal's William McGurn defends his assessment of Fox News' Bill O'Reilly over O'Reilly's bungled effort to get honest answers from American Pat Roush's daughters who have been held in Saudi Arabia for more than a decade. McGurn is correct in his assessment -- it's likely the worst journalism O'Reilly has done in […]

Back to blogging

I got back from my weekend trip early this evening and spent the time catching up on football games I missed over the weekend. The SDSU Aztecs lost (no surprise) and the Chargers knocked the Cincinati Bengals around like a paper tiger. Here's where I spent my weekend: I'm also catching up on my news-watching. […]

Away for a long weekend

That's all the posting you're going to until late Monday at the earliest. I'm heading out of town with my church group. The trip was somewhat expensive, so if you're feeling generous, consider dropping a few coin in one of the tip jars to the left.

What's up at K-Mart?

I walked through a K-Mart earlier this evening to pick up a couple of things. I don't usually shop there, but it was close and convenient, so I went in. As I walked through the electronics department I was surprised to see "Blade II" (Rated R) playing on several of the TVs -- as a […]

Did a turnip truck just go by here?

As Hoystory notices a disheveled Paul Krugman dusting himself off. Krugman's latest is just another rant about how Bush is trying to influence the American public by framing the debate -- specifically on "partial privatization" or "private accounts." The Bush team's Orwellian propensities have long been apparent to anyone following its pronouncements on economics. Even […]

Daschle imitates Groucho Marx

Sen. Tom Daschle (D-S.D.) has set the bar higher for military intervention in Iraq. Previously "His Obstructionist" demanded, rightly, that Bush needs to make the case to Congress. Now, Daschle wants more. Although Bush expressed the hope earlier this week of receiving a vote of support before Congress recesses in a few weeks, Daschle indicated […]

Sept. 11 remembered

Columnist Mark Steyn has a great article in The Spectator today. There's only one minor mistake -- Anna Nicole Smith's show is on E! not MTV. The best part: When an opinion-former's caught unawares, he retreats to his tropes, however lame, as Lahr did, and Pilger, Chomsky et al. But the clearest way to understand […]
