Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I received the following email, thought it was interesting, and want to pass it on: A man, whose family was German aristocracy prior to World War II, owned a number of large industries and estates. When asked how many German people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide
Continue readingI’m still away from my blog, so I’m not blogging in real time, but in un-real time. I lined up this post several days ago and, for all I know, world events shifted so dramatically, everything here is entirely obsolete. Still, FWIW, you may enjoy these stories: Roger L. Simon
Continue readingI can’t imagine that you’ve traveled anywhere across the conservative internet today without coming across a link to Graeme Wood’s “What ISIS Really Wants.” It’s a long article, but so informative and important that it would be a good thing if everybody took a few minutes out of their day to

They must always bow before dogma. But to those of us who like facts, this picture is amazing: The above, of course, perfectly
Continue readingObama’s adversarial relationship with Christianity What did we expect already from yesterday’s Prayer Breakfast? Obama long ago put the world on notice that he’s going full Bulworth (i.e., after six years in office, he intends, finally, to stop lying and speak the truth). While before Obama just let out peevish little
Continue readingIt’s been pouring paying clients lately, which is a good thing but, as always, it cuts into my blogging time. I’ll skip the preliminaries and throw myself in the round-up. It’s a bad thing when our president is happy My Mom, in commenting on the state of the world today,
Continue readingIslam has been in the headlines lately and (reasons incomprehensible to the Left) whenever Islam is in the news, it’s associated with violence — bombs, beheadings, shootings, stabbings, church and people burnings, mass slaughters, mass rapes, tossing people off buildings, child soldiers, hangings, honor killings, etc. The Leftists are left
Continue readingHitler loved Islam.* If you didn’t know that he loved Islam, you might think that Hitler, with his race-based obsessions, would have been hostile to a religion primarily centered on a Semitic people. To Hitler, though, Islam was a manly religion that shared his goals: the eradication of the Jews coupled with world domination.
Continue readingI didn’t watch the SOTU. Aside from finding Obama a boring, inelegant speaker, I was helping a client with trial prep. Today, the trial got continued for a few months so, before settling in for a nice 12 hour sleep (I wish!), I can blog — and share with you,

This time, it happened in Tel Aviv (if story doesn’t load, click on word “post,” below): Post by StandWithUs.

Continue readingAt a lawyer level, this has been a somewhat frustrating day, with me struggling to fit my facts (always true and honest ones) to the law (which sometimes refuses to cooperate), capped by a power outage that lost me an hour of time. Add to that the usual cries for
Continue readingHuffington Post leans Left. It is not a media outlet that believes that the only way to destroy the jihadist mindset is to wipe it out from top to bottom. Instead, HuffPo’s editorial policy makes clear that, in keeping with most major media outlets, it’s very certain that, somewhere out there, there’s
Continue readingI know a narcissist. One of the interesting things about talking with her is that she takes very personally things that are, to non-narcissists, manifestly impersonal. For example, while talking about clothes, I might say to my narcissistic friend something along the lines of “I’m not a big fan of these new
Continue readingOne of the things that’s frustrating for conservatives is to see that stupidity is ascendant in our culture. And by stupidity I mean something very specific, which is that Leftists routinely use incoherence, ignorance and a complete lack of logic to challenge purely factual statements (or obviously humorous ones), and
