I missed this in Friday's Washington Post but stupidity has returned to the paper's editorial page. Early Friday I wrote about how back in December, Democrats and Republicans had come to an agreement on election reform, but that this week Democrats backed out by attempting to water down a very basic provision to prevent voter […]

Boy are they going to be surprised: A story in today's New York Times on early Islam shows (surprise!) that the Koran has been mistranslated for centuries. A case in point is the famous passage about martyrs (why they consider people who commit suicide by blowing up innocent people martyrs I'll never figure out) receiving […]

Just in case you thought Chinese President Jiang Zemin was telling the truth when he said that people in China were free to worship as they please, there's word that the Chinese government feels threatened by an old folks home. China cut off power and water on Friday to a group of elderly Christians, detained […]

South Carolina Sen. Fritz Hollings appears to be more senile than Strom Thurmond -- and that's saying something.

That takes some doing, because Abraham is Arab and Ashcroft's a honky from Missouri. Then Hollings took a page from […]

Foxnews' "Special Report with Brit Hume" today reported alarming news. A study out of the University of Washington (U-Dub to the locals), found that parents are leaving their kids with unlicensed, uneducated and unsupervised child-care providers. Oh my gosh! What do they call these people? Well, grandparents, aunts and uncles, just to name a few. […]

From today's "Best of the Web Today" at OpinionJournal.com: Great Moments in Airport Security Reader Dal Jeanis writes: Regarding the three-year-old who was wanded: I had a similar experience flying with my two-year-old son to meet my wife in San Antonio. As well as wanding him, they made him take his shoes off! Well, in […]

Well, I missed it earlier in the week, but in Monday's Washington Post there was an article on some of the Muslim charter schools operating in the United States. The article is disturbing. The kind of brainwashing and indoctrination that was once thought limited to madrassas in Pakistan or Saudi Arabia has come to America. […]

The New York Times columnist, Paul Krugman, has been pilloried for months by The Wall Street Journal, among others, because of his two-faced columns on Enron and his questionable economic theories. On Friday, Krugman took on the "Bush Tax Cut" with the following analysis: Finally, there's line 47. You haven't heard about that, but you […]
