Ironic, isn’t it? Or is that tragic? Or pathetic? I always gets those confused. But no matter: because one thing we can all agree on is this: it is most certainly opportunistic and cynical and brackets the very idea of a representative government (in a Denver Post opinion poll, over 70% of Coloradans want to see the bill overturned, while only 29% support it; and that’s because Coloradans who thought

You know the drill: The “peaceful” pro-Palestinian solidarity movement, organized with money from violent, insulated, fascistic terror states and then larded up with useful 20-somethings idiots on the left playing at radical chic and engaging in “peaceful” assaults, intimidation, speech suppression, and thuggery, lays claim to being oppressed and having their voices silenced — even as it is they who time and again will brook no dissent, and display a

ZOMG!! We must think of the children!! New Jersey police and Dept. of Children and Families officials raided the home of a firearms instructor and demanded to see his guns after he posted a Facebook photo of his 11-year-old son holding a rifle. “Someone called family services about the photo,” said Evan Nappen, an attorney representing Shawn Moore. “It led to an incredible, heavy-handed raid on his house.

Compare and contrast. As it’s all the rage these days, allow me to try my hand at the new “compassionate conservative,” GOP establishment “autopsy” game:  first, I hereby re-brand John Boehner “Barack Obama Light” — though not for lack of tanning.  Second,  I hereby re-brand the GOP House leadership, which on three occasions recently caucused with Democrats against its own majority, and has scrapped the Hastert Rule (which I’ve re-branded

I’ve written on this now quite a bit, but we are nearing the progressive end game.  States with Democrat-majority legislatures are going to push through measures to deprive their citizens of Constitutional protections regardless of what their constituencies want, because the left is all about centralizing government, and the allegiance of the contemporary Democrat state legislator is to the national Party.  Obama

All part of the “re-branding.” — Which, should they be interested, I can help them with:  just be true to yourselves and go with “Democrat”.
