Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Ann Coulter has a new book out — In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome! — lauding Donald Trump as the savior of a constitutional America. In an excerpt from her book, she makes an interesting statement about Trump’s supposed narcissism: If Trump hadn’t been a “narcissist”—or, as we now see

Once again that this blog’s motto is proven correct. My blog’s motto is “Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.” The only thing wrong with the motto is that the word “liberal” is a poor substitute for a whole category of Leftists and

In the past couple of weeks, two superb essays came out castigating conservatives who are going to do anything but vote for Donald Trump, whether that means voting for Hillary, Johnson (a closet Democrat who’s been Hillary’s echo chamber), or what’s his name the Mormon. For me, the bottom line

I tend to submit my name to various political campaigns, both Republican and Democrat, so that I can see their emails. Most of the emails are open begs for money, and they are predicated on fear — the other side is winning, we’re cornered, we need your help. As Scott
Continue readingThanks to a little personal chaos, I arrived late to hearing Donald Trump’s “law and order” speech, which is really more accurately entitled a “Dear African-Americans, please get off the grim, crime-ridden, paranoid Democrat plantation and step out into the light as a free citizen in a free country.” It’s

I don’t particularly like a friend one of the Little Bookworms has, although I feel quite sorry for the young woman. She’s in her late teens, with staggeringly low self-esteem that she buries by indulging in drugs, alcohol, and gender fluid sexual engagements. I don’t worry, though, that she’ll be

The Marx Brothers’ Horse Feathers came out in 1932. It’s not a very memorable movie except for that one classic tune: [Groucho] I don’t know what they have to say, It makes no difference anyway, Whatever it is, I’m against it. No matter what it is or who commenced it, I’m

There is a sad running debate going on between the Left and Right in America today: Which party’s candidate is the biggest liar? Both Hillary and Trump appear to have, at best, only a passing acquaintance with honesty. For every article saying that Trump is a liar, there’s another article

The Hillary supporters amongst whom I live are thrilled to pieces with the report that 50 GOP “national security experts” have signed a letter calling Trump potentially “the most reckless president in American history.” I certainly understand their concern about putting reckless people in charge of America’s national security. Just

Up until 2008, although the media was already reliably Leftist, it still kept up the pretense that it was objective. In every election year, it interspersed its cheerleading for the Democrat candidate and put-downs for the Republican candidate with occasional stories that praised the Republican with faint damns, and that

During the primaries, I was a #NeverTrumper, because I preferred Ted Cruz’s more constitutionally pure political ideology. Unfortunately for me, Ted Cruz didn’t win the primary. The iconoclastic, highly eccentric, often bombastic, and really rather vulgar Donald Trump did. What I did not do when Trump became the Republican candidate was

Warren Buffet pulled the “have you no decency?” card on Trump re Khizzy Khan. Color me unimpressed. First, it’s a trite phrase, its power having been lost over the decades; second, Khan is a Democrat operative who’s trying to bring more Muslims into America (meaning he has an agenda); third,

Not long after 9/11, one of the smartest men I know told me that, when it comes to Islam’s battle with the West, “it’s all about control over women and access to sex.” That’s a simplification for an existential war that involves fundamental beliefs, rather than mere land borders, but

Khizr Khan was showcased to argue that Muslims are patriotic and, except when they’re defending America in the military, peaceful. I’m actually sure that’s true for the majority, although probably not the vast majority, of Muslims in America. Khan’s little talk was meant to provide cover for the fact that Democrats are refusing

Trump is an unpleasant mixture of bullying, bombast, and boasting. I don’t like his style. But to those who are worried about his authoritarian streak, I’d like to point out that there’s only one candidate on the presidential ballot who has called for weakening both the First and Second Amendments —
