Melanie Phillips: Britain Capitulates to Terror [Dan Collins]

Geert Wilders may be a bit of an ass, but is he a “security threat” to Britain? The question I have is: Do you care, anymore? I do, because I’ve got friends and family over there. If I didn’t, I don’t know that I’d be any more upset about it than leftists really are about the genocide in Darfur, though. Their name is . . . Related: TNR writer criticizes

Re-Establishing Science! [Dan Collins]

Political science! Several commenters have pointed this out: President Obama said in his inaugural address that he planned to “restore science to its rightful place” in government. That’s a worthy goal. But statisticians at the Commerce Department didn’t think it would mean having the director of next year’s Census report directly to the White House rather than to the Commerce secretary, as is customary. “There’s only one reason to have

“The forty acres and a mule follow-up x 7 post” (from the protein wisdom conceptual series)

If this land is your land and this land is my land, then how come I’m the one always stuck mowing the huge bitch? Yeah. That’s what I thought. Pinko.

Be Very Afraid [Dan Collins]

Wonderful piece on Fear and Loathing of the New Outlawry by Charles Winecoff.

Probably the single most discussed part of O!s question-and-answer in Darleen’s thread from last night, and face it, there were some doozies, was this bit: I think there are areas like education, where some in my party have been too resistant to reform, and have argued only money makes a difference. And there have been others on the Republican side or the conservative side who said, no matter how much

Hope Her Taxes Are Paid Up [Dan Collins]

SecProgg Obamitarianism Becomes Established Faith [Dan Collins]

Time to march: Today, U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina) made the following statement after Democrats voted 43-54 against his amendment to strike language from the economic stimulus bill that discriminates against students of faith. Senator DeMint’s amendment would have eliminated a provision that bans any university or college receiving funds to renovate buildings, from allowing “sectarian instruction” or “religious worship” within the facility. This would in effect bar use

What Would We Catholics Ever Do [Dan Collins]

without the counsel of Trent? In my piece about Christmas in Darfur at Big Hollywood, I mention the revelation that the famous Lancet “study” attributing 650k Iraqi deaths to the Eeeevil Chimperor has been debunked because the author could not supply a legitimate explanation of his methodology, and for my troubles, I am given this: Trent – February 9th, 2009 at 6:44 am Don’t you find it ironic that you

Never Let Go the Opportunity [Dan Collins]

to turn a problem into a catastrophe. Peter Schiff on the Porkstrosity. (h/t Maggie’s Farm) Preston Taylor Holmes has choice words for DOJ Obamanominee David Ogden, and another egregious asshole gets a blog devoted to his antics. Bad review for the O! More fodder for this morning’s round-up, Arlen Specter reveals why he backs the Omnibus Shafting Act. Movietone! He’s now Senator Halfaloaf.
