Stuck on Stupid: Progressive Facebook edition (Part 2)

It’s not a very deep dive to plumb the depths of Leftist intellectual positions on most issues, but it’s still a worthwhile exercise to expose the fallacies that they use to try to dominate the debate on pressing issues — with the most pressing issue being whether to admit Syrian

Maybe Obama can re-energize by leading a fight to ban swords and knives

Robert Tracinski wrote an excellent article calling Obama the worst president ever. I urge you to read it. His opening point, which is that Obama is bored by the disasters he’s let loose in the world,and excited only about fighting to deprive Americans of their Second Amendment rights got me

Brief thoughts about today’s news #Paris #Islam #Mizzou #terror #Yale

Before I begin, I want to extend my sincerest condolences to the French people. This Mumbai-style attack is terrible and cruel. Having said that, I feel obligated to point out that France, which has expended a great deal of energy trying to appease the Muslim crocodile (including trying to undermine

The Bookworm Beat 11-5-15 — the Guy Fawkes edition and open thread

Remember, remember, the fifth of November, with gunpowder, treason, and plot. We see no reason why gunpowder treason should ever be forgot. And today, in honor of the holiday celebrated in a once great nation, I offer you myriad links hinting that, absent brave action, we may find ourselves going down

The Bookworm Beat 10-27-15 — “it’s just another day” edition and open thread

I’ve been going through my emails, with 200 down, 300 or so yet to go. Even though I’m only less than halfway through, I’ve discovered marvelous articles hiding in my email box thanks to friends from all over. Did Merkel unilaterally doom Europe? We no longer subscribe to the great man

The Bookworm Beat 10-14-15 — the hot quick links edition, and open thread

So much to share with you, and so many demands on my time. I’ll make it quick, tantalizing you with short links to wonderful things: We know the other media outlets are hostile to Israel, but is it possible that Fox News is also turning on Israel? CAMERA has caught

[VIDEO] Bill Whittle on guns, sons, missing dads, and Pajama Boy fads — plus commentary about narcissistic societies

Bill Whittle is always good.  A furious Bill Whittle is even better — and Bill Whittle is mighty angry as he looks at illiberal “liberals” who blame guns for the societal diseases they’ve created, diseases whose outbreaks take the form of angry, vindictive, fatherless boys who need desperately to make all

Found it on Facebook — What passes for insightful commentary on the Left (part 2, the gun control edition)

This is Part 2 of a running series of posts deconstructing popular, and incredibly stupid, posters that Progressives toss around Facebook with abandon and that, sadly, too many people think are actually wise and informative.  You can see Part 1 here.  If you haven’t already read Part 1, I recommend that you

Dear Dr. Krauthammer: Please stifle your inner Canadian on “gun control” *UPDATED*

Let me start by saying that I think Charles Krauthammer is one of the most brilliant, thoughtful, informed conservative thinkers around.  About eighty percent of the time when I read something he’s written I find myself nodding my head in agreement or exclaiming enthusiastically (and yes, I talk to myself)

Hillary’s lastest speech on gun control — or, do Leftists even bother to listen to themselves anymore?

Hillary has been taunting the NRA and its members: Hillary Clinton is ramping up her rhetoric on guns, comparing the National Rifle Association (NRA) to global adversaries she negotiated with as secretary of State. “You know, the NRA’s position reminds me of negotiating with the Iranians or the communists,” [Mrs.]

Five reasons that the benefits that flow from guns far outweigh the risks inherent in guns

With the shooting at Umpqua Community College having reanimated the Progressives’ demands that we withdraw guns from citizens’ hands and leave them solely in the hands of government operatives (a strange demand from the BLM-supporting crowd if you think about it), it’s time for me to rehash my five-point argument
