“Regis”:  “What’s to say, honey?  We’re a hyperpower.  Which, if you spent less time ankle biting and more time dolling yourself up and showing just a bit more of that creamy Brit thigh, you’d be so busy swigging pricey scotch at Sinatra-drenched swinger’s parties you wouldn’t have time to worry about asking me such silly, leading questions.* “I mean, remember the Pigeon sisters?  Now those were a couple of Limey

I can’t confirm this (being too lazy to drive out there myself), but I’m getting word from reliable sources that a group of 88 faculty members at the University of Colorado at Boulder is preparing to stage a protest against the state’s rash of winter storms—the idea being to accuse our near-record snowfalls of “white privilege” and environmental “rape” before demanding that the university’s president and trustees expel the vile,

After a long hiatus from full-time posting, Jeff Goldstein’s back at Protein Wisdom, much to the delight of his fans.  Drop by and welcome him back.

For those who might have missed it last night, Hot Air has the “60 Minutes” segment on the Duke rape case where parents of the indicted were given a rather significant platform from which to speak on this whole sorry (but, sadly, predictable) “white privilege” / “rape” debacle. Allah’s one word summary:  “Rage.” Jeff’s one word summary:  “Immediatedisbarmentfollowedbywagegarnishmentandapublicspankingwithagoaliestick.” **** unrelated and self-serving update:  a blast from the past.

I like to trot out this old essay for MLK day, because it affords me the opportunity to take the race / “diversity” industry—whatever its intentions, be they altruistic or self-serving—to task for its insistence on using King’s legacy as an occasion to promote its logically incoherent (though subjectively and arrogantly pragmatic) prescription for a society “properly” socially engineered by way of color distribution, a faux-scientific policy push I’ve described

This is interesting.  Egyptian authorities have arrested an al-Jazeera reporter for having staged “documentary reconstruction[s]” of prisoner torture: A journalist working for Arabic TV news channel al-Jazeera has been arrested in Egypt for allegedly fabricating videos of police torturing suspects. Huweida Taha Metwalli was stopped on her way to Qatar and 50 video tapes were found in her luggage, the Egyptian interior ministry said. She is reportedly charged with “tarnishing

Joe’s Dartblog: The most interesting aspect of the Duke Non-Rape Case has, for me, been the role that the Duke arts and sciences professoriate has played in stoking the fire. Eager for the content of their “gender” classes to be proved with some corpuscle of hard evidence, they had no trouble emulating Monty Python’s ‘burn her’ squad when three lacrosse players were accused of raping a girl. When it became

According to Crooks & Liars: Chuck Hagel Smacks Lieberman: Questions his competency There’s irony for you.  Hey, speaking of competency, I hear that Tim Johnson’s improved–a little.

Are you talking about the famous cowboy criminal and gunfighter, or the guy who builds motorcycles and who married Sandra Bullock?  Cuz that could make a difference. Answer ghosted here ->“Just like Jessie James,” Cher.
