Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
The coup that wasn’t and the coup that could be. The more news that comes out of Turkey, the more I believe that what happened there was a coup in the same way that the Reichstag fire was a “coup” — it was a staged event that gave a despot

Between the Islamic terror attack on Nice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s decision to go full Bulworth, and Hillary’s semi-pass from Comey (a scathing indictment followed by a “get out of jail free” card), there’s been a bumper crop of stupidity in the Facebook feeds of my Lefty friends. I have to

All of those who read this blog already know everything Bill Whittle says: that Islam has a violence problem; that Islam is now and has always been at war with everyone (i.e., it doesn’t play well with others); that there’s something very wrong about Obama’s rigid refusal to acknowledge Islam’s

Islam is the problem. This does not mean that all Muslims are the problem. In fact, most aren’t. But those who owe fealty to a literalist interpretation of Mohammed’s words are a problem, there are lots of them, and we need to name them and then destroy them. Both these

After World War II, Pastor Martin Niemöller penned his famous “First they came” poem, detailing the cowardice of the intelligentsia in the lead-up to WWII. It’s time for an updated version of that, one for the jihadists in our midst: First they came for the box cutters and utility blades,

Belshazzar was a great king who sneered at the Bible, partied decadently, and failed to read the handwriting on the wall when he might still have saved himself and his people.* His story is the story of the American Left. For the entirely of the Obama presidency, the Left focuses

I’ll be away all day tomorrow, first doing an activity with the kids, and then listening to this year’s best a cappella groups (although this wonderful group from Israel won’t be there). I therefore hope that this post gives you lots of interesting stuff to read on Saturday. Pro-Trump? Anti-Trump?
Continue readingAnother day, another incredible collection of articles I think you’ll like, all of which I’ve tried to present in a way that’s both interesting and brief. Yet another government lie. Is everything we think we know about the cost of living data false? And worse, is the actual cost of
Continue reading[This is a long one, good for a cozy read on a winter day.] I’m a pessimist. I’ve learned through experience that most things go wrong, whether in the world or in my life. Still, I never completely lose hope. If I didn’t have hope, frankly, I would stop moving
Continue readingOne doesn’t have to be psychic to predict what Obama will say. It’s always the same old Leftist pabulum. Although finally forced to acknowledge that the San Bernardino attack was terrorism, he worked desperately hard to stick to that old “lone wolf” narrative. (I won’t repeat my take on the
Continue readingJohn Kerry is a rather frustrating Secretary of State, not just because he’s uniformly awful, but because he’s so stupid there’s nothing left to parody. The guy parodies himself. Take, for example, his deep and profound statement following last Friday’s Islamic massacre in Paris. It is a tour de force
Continue readingImmediately after radical Islamists slaughtered at least 128 people in cold blood, and wounded more than double that number, my Facebook feed lit up with posts and posters expressing solidarity with the people of Paris. I’m posting here a sampling of the images included in the posts. As you scroll
Continue readingMy apologies for my blog silence yesterday. I hope to make up for it now with a substantial round-up, some of which I compiled, and some of which comes from a friend who insists on remaining anonymous: Your daily “Hillary is toast” report As you know, Hillary did a national interview —
Continue readingIn no particular order, my thoughts about the mass Muslim invasion of Europe: The poster to the left implies that Muslim countries are heartless, which they are. But they’re also pragmatic. They’re refusing to accept those so-called “refugees” because they understand that there are terrorists embedded within them. The “refugees”
Continue readingI think each of us has been confronted with a Leftist who, when we point out a problem with jihad (for example, the fact that ISIS just burned alive four Iraqi soldiers), invariably comes back with one word: “Crusades.” In the Leftist mind, the fact that nine hundred years ago Christians
