Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Greg Gutfeld calls it “Students Against Hummus, Not Hamas,” which is a very funny description of something that’s not funny at all: Anti-Israeli students at Princeton, offended that two Israeli companies are provided the hummus sold in school-run stores, are making a lot of noise about “expanding” the hummus selection.
Continue readingLately, Mr. Bookworm has been obsessed with Glenn Beck, and he keeps attacking my conservativism by saying that Beck is the “most dangerous man in the world.” The genesis for this theory is a series of Jon Stewart shows that skewered Glenn Beck shows, in which the latter attacked George
Continue readingYes, you read that post caption correctly. British Liberal Democrat Jenny Tonge, in a speech in the House of Lords, claims that terrorism around the world is Israel’s fault, because Israel treats the Palestinian’s badly: On the issue of world conflict prevention, Tonge then said: “It is a disgrace to
Continue readingI never liked Jean-Luc Godard movies. I go to movies to be entertained, not bored. He failed my simple test. Aside from being (in my mind) a boring film maker, it turns out that he is, as well, a deep, blatant, vicious antisemite. Of course, if you’re a New York
Continue readingBarry Rubin thinks he knows. I would say “what a sad, pathetic little man,” except for the fact that his “sad, pathetic little man” is one of the richest people in the world, and is using his personal pathologies to destroy a nation and its people.
Continue readingAt Rhymes with Right, Greg tells about a peculiar interaction he had at a Democratic-themed blog, where his argument in favor of free speech earned an attack against him based upon his Jewishness. Although Greg was flattered, he isn’t actually Jewish. He concluded, that the claim that he is Jewish
Continue readingI don’t have a link yet (it was tweeted), but it appears that the Swedes elected a center-right government. I see this as a good thing, although I haven’t lost sight of two facts: (1) Europe is so far Left that, as we know from England, even center-right is Left;
Continue readingOne of the dominant PC d0ctrines is that you’re not allowed to dislike people based upon race, religion, creed, country of national original, sexuality, gender, etc. This is one step beyond federal law, which merely says that you cannot discriminate against people on those grounds. I heartily agree with the
Continue readingIsrael has no greater friend than Sarah Palin. She has shown repeatedly that she has a deep and abiding respect for the Jewish state, and that she understands the existential stresses under which it survives. Benyamin Korn gets this and, despite incredible derision from Jewish Democrats, has begun working to
Continue readingWhile the MSM would clearly like the whole Journolist discussion to vanish (as evidence by the fact that I haven’t found mention or, at least, prominent mention of it in any traditional print media), the fact remains that it’s out there and it’s ugly. The bits and pieces we’ve seen
Continue readingI spent yesterday at the Marin County Fair. It was, for the most part, a very pleasant experience and could have been any county fair, anywhere in America. The kids wanted to spend all their time on the midway, standing in long hot lines, spinning to the point of acute
Continue readingStand With Us is an extraordinarily important organization. I cannot emphasize that enough. Its goal is to counter the calumnies that an unholy union of Leftists and Islamists spread against Israel, especially on college campuses. The Stand With Us founders realized something that American Jews and other friends of Israel
Continue reading[Prepare yourself; this is a long one. Long-time readers may also recognize that I’ve cannibalized old posts in the service of a new point.] A friend sent me a link to a 1951 video, showing a popular American singing group celebrating the creation of the State of Israel, something that
Continue readingIt’s the first day of summer for my kids, so I’ve been in mommy mode all day (expect when I was in martial arts mode, which was, frankly, more fun). Things cross my radar, though, and there are three things that came my way that I wanted to put onto
Continue readingIt tells you how quickly the world is moving that José María Aznar was prime minister in Spain as recently as 2004. It’s impossible today to imagine any current world leader, including our own President, writing this about Israel. I’ve posted Aznar’s message on both of my facebook sites, emailed
