Do Liberals Think Martin Luther King was a Racist?

Yes, to judge by the words of actress Janeane Garofalo (for some reason, I want to call her Gandalfo – must be the hair).?????????? Ms. Gandalfo claimed last week that tea party participants are racist because they disagree with a black President. Watch her say so at... Sign in to see full entry.

Health Care and Edsels: Congress’ “Hard Work” Praised

A news clip I heard late last week lauded the virtues of Congress’ hard work in drafting the health care demolition and made it a reason to not oppose this idiocy. I dearly wish I knew who said it, and had the quote exactly. But that was lost as I yelled back at the radio, “The Edsel was a symbol of... Sign in to see full entry.

Remembering our Fathers in the Face of Violence

My favorite TV series ever is the dearly departed science-fiction classic, Stargate SG-1. But this isn’t about my viewing preferences. It’s about the love of liberty.

Obama: Nothing Gets Done in Government Without a Deadline

President Obama is now saying that nothing gets done in government without a deadline. So he sets a deadline for Congress to pass Health Care Demolition, even though he has admitted to not knowing what’s in it. All of us who, unlike the President, have at least a partial rooting in reality know that... Sign in to see full entry.
