Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
New facts show that the so-called Russia conspiracy was in fact a product of savvy Russians and credulous, willing, and very dishonest Democrat operatives. This Trump-Russia collusion narrative is looking more and more like an incredibly intelligent mix of publicly available facts wrapped around some damning pieces of knowing slanders

Showing its anti-Americanism, The New Yorker celebrates the treasonous Bradley Manning as a mover and shaker who was more sinned against than sinning. Mr. Bookworm has a subscription to print version of The New Yorker. Most of the time I ignore this weekly magazine, finding it alternately banal, pompous, and

Posters for my illustrated edition have been hard to find lately, as smart people get worn down by media malevolence. What I can find, though, is great!

The “destroy Trump” media’s latest revelations re Trump and Comey and the mostly-ignored Rich-Wikileaks’ nexus cast a harsh light on Comey and the FBI. Revelations of the last 24 hours are coming ‘fast and furious’ one might say. Something is playing out between Trump, Comey and the NYT that could

A genuinely curious Progressive asked me to address this breathless article claiming that Russia actively interfered with the American election: In assessing Donald Trump’s presidential victory, Americans continue to look away from this election’s most alarming story: the successful effort by a hostile foreign power to manipulate public opinion before

This is it: the countdown to learning whether Obama will have been successful in fundamentally changing America or whether we can still resurrect something from the wreckage. This is an umbrella post with a variety of articles that touch upon the election, America’s culture wars, politics generally, the Middle East,

Owing to other commitments, I was a laggard when it came to blogging yesterday. Thank goodness for WOW! Magazine, the revamped Watcher’s Council site, which works as an aggregator for posts from all the Watcher’s Council members. If you check that site out once or twice a day, you’ll be
Continue readingI’m processing (that’s a euphemism for “paying”) bills, which is hogging a ridiculous amount of the space in my head. Nevertheless, there are three things I wanted to bring to your attention. First, you’ve probably heard already that Obama, as part of his proposal to cut military spending, is slashing
Continue readingA lot of what came out in Wikileaks was, essentially, gossip and speculation. Some of what came out, however, was hard, dangerous fact — such as the State Department’s gathering information about vulnerable American sites around the world, sites now known to anyone who reads Wikileaks. Deroy Murdock writes about
Continue readingI have been, I suppose, almost remarkably silent about the whole wikileaks fiasco. The data drop is of such enormous proportions, it’s actually difficult for me to process all the implications. I have, however, got a laundry list in mind of some conclusions to be drawn and some of the
Continue readingI haven’t had time (nor do I have the will) to pay close attention to the myriad revelations in the Wikileaks documents. My overall sense, though, is that, fact-wise, there is nothing new here — or, at least, nothing new to those of us paying attention. All of us at

If you don’t have time to click on over, here’s the money quote: Wikileaks is a small cabal of people who, in their own site description, “Publishes and comments on
