Rejection of common sense biological and evolutionary observations are much in vogue among the social engineers and their activist counterparts.  But it bears repeating — yet again — that wishing something were so, because in your mind a just world would make it so, does not, in fact, replace what is.  And yet it is we who are labeled anti-science — albeit by those whose idea of science is the

Maybe so. But when you’re a good man on the right side of history, sometimes you have to sacrifice a few pawns to clear the board for your clean run to a Utopian checkmate.  Such sacrifices weigh heavily on our faculty lounge Presiddent, make no mistake.  But in the end, his essential decency — and his love of country, which is in no way negated by the policies he pushes

Gee. Look who was a vile racist teabagger before he wasn’t! I particularly love the bit about how it’s “unpatriotic” to raise the debt limit, given that it’s now traitorous for people like Senator Obama to hold President Obama hostage to arbitrary spending caps that will lead to “economic” shutdowns and “default”. Anarchist! Arsonist! Jihadist! Burn him!

You are “traitors” — particularly if you support organizations like Freedomworks or other plebe uprisings against important people doing important things that your little lizard brains can’t ever hope to comprehend. Because nothing says “I reject my country” more than standing up for its founding ideals and demanding that a government of, by, and for the people deserves elected officials who represent the interests of their constituencies and not their

And yes, “conservative” Joe Scarborough stepped in to rehabilitate himself and possibly win himself another invite to the next NRO symposium on fixing Teabaggerism by disagreeing with Mika Brzezinski’s assertion that Cruz doesn’t love his country — he’s just a moron who wants to build a mailing list while trying to destroy the GOP by taking it on a suicide mission with no clear strategy, Cruz is, which is entirely

And that makes me happy, frankly, because I like the guy. In fact, there are many GOPers who I believe, having witnessed the very deliberate attempt by the Democrats to try to cause the people pain, unease, or inconvenience — and even in some cases, threatening them with jail and forcing them to surrender religious convictions — are beginning to recognize that part of the “strategy” of a shutdown (which

Well, maybe not yet.  But the fact that I was able to make you look shows just how beholden we’ve become to a government that controls not only our Amber Alert system but the live footage of visiting Pandas — and soon, if it gets its way, will be able to hold our health care over our heads should we not buckle to its “need” for constant new revenue streams.

Even if it turns out this supposedly off the record quip from Putin isn’t attributable to him, I take the demi-Voltairean position that, if it isn’t real, we most certainly would be within our rights to invent it: Negotiating with Obama is like playing chess with a pigeon. The pigeon knocks over all the pieces, shits on the board and then struts around like it won the game. Right now,

If you are going to be the most transparent administration ever, you have first to create and then facilitate a standard narrative, one that is dutifully repeated by a compliant and complicit set of sycophants and media enablers, then disseminated with a calculated and controlled rigor to make sure it remains constant and consistent. After all, transparency means allowing for the people to see the goings on of government, and
