What’s that old line about liberals turning conservative after being mugged by reality? Newsmax: Fox News contributor Juan Williams, who recently declared that America should be “gun-free,” has revealed that after his wife was recently robbed of her car she said, “I wish I had a gun.” Williams told “The Lars Larson Show” on Monday that the robbery occurred when his wife, Delise, “went to the gas station” to fill
Bolton blasts Obama Adminstration for its hostility toward Israel
And though his straight-talking mustache, Regis, remained relatively quiet during this particular interview, it was evident, to the careful observer (and those who know Regis well) that he was all but itching to throw down a few fingers of Scotch, seek John Kerry out, and bitch slap the WASP right out of him. Ted Cruz — who more and more speaks for the conservative base and remaining Reaganites — has
“BLS: In 20% of American Families, No One Works”
I am the 80 percent! CNS News: In 20 percent of American families in 2013, according to new data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), not one member of the family worked. A family, as defined by the BLS, is a group of two or more people who live together and who are related by birth, adoption or marriage. In 2013, there were 80,445,000 families in the United
So.
Now that lefty-loving billionaire (but recently registered Republican, so we should ignore that all his contributions went to leftwing politicians) 1%-er and Clipper’s owner Donald Sterling, who evidently has a long-time reputation for making racist comments, has become the latest poster-child for identity politics OUTRAGE!, do you think the NAACP, whose membership asserts itself as keenly aware of any and all potential racialist slights, will vanish any and all evidence
“Alaskan Polar Bears Threatened…By Too Much Spring Ice”
Formerly, they were threatened by disappearing ice. It’s all part of the unified theory of global climate change: all weather is harmful to something, and when it isn’t, that’s just the weather telling denialist lies. Honestly. If even those environmental stewards with their hearts in the right place aren’t embarrassed by the refusal of supposed climate scientist alarmists to debate the data — not their own faulty modeling — on
“Clinton Library’s Doc Dump Reveals CRA Fueled Subprime Bubble”
I’ve recommended Gretchen Morgenson and Joshua Rosner’s Reckless Endangerment on a number of occasions. Let me take this opportunity to do so again. It consistently amazes me how the American people re-elect to office the very kinds of people who cause them so much harm, be it to liberty or property. Maybe we’re a nation of masochists. Or maybe we’ve just be successfully dumbed down to the point of irretrievability.
“Wall Street Republicans’ dark secret: Hillary Clinton 2016”
I don’t know how many times I have to repeat this line before it finally takes hold, but we live in time when it is the ruling class vs. the rest of us — from the open mockery by a sitting President of “teabaggers,” to a governmental attack on private citizens (Limbaugh, Bundy, the Koch brothers), to the declared war establishment Republicans, who can never bring themselves to actively reject
Reaction in America’s Future [Dan Collins]
Back in olden times, many of you will recall, there was a great deal of sturm und drang over Bush the Younger’s use of executive orders and signing statements from the left, and I agreed in part that these short-circuitings of the legislative process in the name of efficiency set bad precedents. At the time, these abuses of process triggered much hyperventilating from leftists, who warned of the rise of
Toyota to move N. American headquarters (and over 5,000 jobs) from California to Texas [Darleen Click]
Hell of a job, Moonbeam! North American Chief Executive Jim Lentz is expected to brief employees Monday, said the person, who was not authorized to speak publicly. Toyota declined to detail its plans. About 5,300 people work at Toyota’s Torrance complex. It is unclear how many workers will be asked to move to Texas. The move is expected to take several years. Toyota has long been a Southern California fixture.
“Race matters” [Darleen Click]
“Racism is the lowest, most crudely primitive form of collectivism. It is the notion of ascribing moral, social or political significance to a man’s genetic lineage — the notion that a man’s intellectual and characterological traits are produced and transmitted by his internal body chemistry” ~~Ayn Rand SCOTUS “Justice” Sotomayor has lived up to every warning issued about her dedication to the Left’s ideology of viewing all reality through the
