Presented to allow you a glimpse into the mind of one of those benevolent nannystatists who presumes to know better than the founding father’s just how to protect a society from itself.  Here’s Dan Simpson, retired diplomat and member of the editorial boards of The Blade and Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, in all his problem-solving glory: [H]ow would one disarm the American population? First of all, federal or state laws would need

Okay.  So that’s not the title the WaPo gives his op-ed, but we may as well just cut to the chase.  From “One Choice in Iraq”: Last week a series of coordinated suicide bombings killed more than 170 people. The victims were not soldiers or government officials but civilians—innocent men, women and children indiscriminately murdered on their way home from work and school. If such an atrocity had been perpetrated

From the Weekly Standard’s “Scrapbook”: See if you can parse the Senate Majority Leader’s position on partial-birth abortion. He voted for the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003, which last week was upheld 5-4 by the Supreme Court. His reaction? “A lot of us wish that Alito [supporting the bill Reid backed] weren’t there and O’Connor were there”—in which event the measure likely would have been struck down. According to

Thanks to a story by Marc Fisher in the WaPo, I am able to state definitively why the VaTech shooter went on his rampage. You may recall that among the significant details about Cho’s family that were revealed to us by the legacy media, we found that his family live in an off-white two-story house in the DC suburbs.  Further, we discovered that his parents own a dry-cleaning business and

Congress as parent-by-proxy.  What could possibly go wrong with that?  From the AP: The Federal Communications Commission said Wednesday a correlation exists between bloodshed on television and violence in real life and that the government should take action on such programming. Correlation, causation…you say tomato, the FCC says tomahto. Interesting statistical tidbit:  100% of all habitual heroin abusers used one of two dangerous gateway drugs:  “mother’s milk” or baby formula.

Of course, he’s only doing this before he’s “outed” by Hollywood watchdogs.  Who he doubtless feared would post pictures of him on the net engaging in gay sex, his gay porn COCK OF LIES fairly screaming its erect guilt reading some Edmund Burke or, god forfend, maybe even a Bible. Anyway, let’s not question his motives.  Instead, let’s just read what the degenerate poser—writer Andrew Klavan (Don’t Say a Word,

Ray Robison, writing at the American Thinker, traces the Jessica Lynch mythology back not to the military, which (the current Waxman-pushed narrative has it) desired a propaganda hero and so propagated a false story, but rather to the Washington Post, which in its rush to report on the story relied on vague reports by unnamed “officials.” Most importantly, though, it turns out the US military corrected the story immediately, if

From CENTCOM: Coalition Forces positively identified a terrorist killed in an operation April 20 northwest of Baghdad. Muhammad Abdullah Abbas al-Issawi, also known as Abu Abd al-Sattar and Abu Akram, was a known al-Qaeda terrorist leader known to operate in Karmah and Ameriyah areas and was the al-Qaeda in Iraq Security Emir of the eastern Anbar Province. Coalition Forces were conducting operations targeting associates of a known senior leader within
