Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
There is a tendency to imagine politics as a straight line, going from Left to Right, or statist to individualist. I think, though, that it would be more accurate to imagine it as a curve, with the two ends sometimes straining to meet each other. Ron Paul’s libertarianism, which includes
Continue readingI didn’t bother to read the entirety of an endless article about a bad thing happening in Mexico. No, I’m not talking about drug cartels or about Mexican citizens being slaughtered by guns sent over courtesy of a Democrat Department of Justice attempting to prove that guns hurt people. I’m
Continue readingIgnore the fact that the Qur’an is drenched in Jew hated. Ignore the fact that, since Islam came into being, it has alternately treated Jews as second class citizens or actively tried to slaughter them. If you can ignore those realities, you too can be an American ambassador in the
Continue readingThis is as pithy a summary as any I’ve seen about the antisemitism permeating Occupy Wall Street, and binding together the Left, the Islamists, and the White Supremacists: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmTMIjkMoLk[/youtube] (If the video isn’t showing up, watch here.) By the way, why is no one commenting on the fact that the
Continue readingBruce Kesler spoke with Jonathan Spyer, who wrote Transforming Fire: The Rise of the Israel-Islamist Conflict. Despite the current upheaval in the Middle East, and its attendant rise in antisemitism (which is impressive, considering its previous high level), Spyer is sanguine, and even optimistic. Check out Bruce’s post and see
Continue readingAntisemitism in connection with OWS was a no-brainer. The Left is antisemitic. It has been since Marx. Hitler institutionalized it to deadly effect. Stalin was less methodical than Hitler, but he made Judaism illegal and instituted various pogroms within his own party to drive out, imprison or kill Jews. No

Continue readingA country that happily allows the rape and destruction of its women, and that kills and hunts down its Jews, is a dead country: Condell calls it the “open theft of an entire country,” but is it really theft if you voluntarily surrender your goods? Hat tip: Front Page
Continue readingIn the past week and a half, I’ve had a couple of vigorous go-arounds with Jesse Kornbluth regarding his sycophantic Andrew Sullivan article in the Harvard Rag, er, Mag. My take was that Kornbluth either carelessly missed or, worse, actually supported Sullivan’s shoddy journalism. Kornbluth, as you may recall, anointed
Continue readingAlmost thirty years ago, just after college, I got a summer job in a hospital administrative office, filling in for a gal who was on maternity leave. One of the guys in charge of that office looked, to my fevered young eyes, just like Tom Selleck. He wasn’t very nice,
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 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;
