Left Badly Misunderstands Conservative "Glee" Over Chicago's Olympic Loss

Monday, October 5, 2009

I’ll admit that I laughed when I first heard that the Chicago Olympic bid was rejected in the first round, first one out. I really did. Not because I hate Chicago, or because I hate America or even because I am unpatriotic. Not even because my distaste for Obama outweighs my love for this country. [...]

The Dixie Chicks and the Glenn Beck Boycott

Tuesday, August 25, 2009

Performer criticizes the president publicly.  Backers of the president go wild and demand boycotts.  Big corporations gladly oblige and the performers fans scream about protecting the First Amendment.   How does the media react?   Guess it depends on how good looking and cool the boss  is.

Worry About Deficits? That’s So 2008.

Tuesday, February 3, 2009

Saw a bumper sticker yesterday about “your honor student will pay for Bush’s deficits”, or something like that.  Brilliant analysis, but who’s paying for the extra trillion dollars being piled on via the “stimulus” bill?  At whose expense are we paying off Democratic special interests?  And where are the hounds of the media that were barking [...]

MADD Scientists Frantically Working to Create Black Holes

Monday, January 26, 2009

I might have the headline wrong, but the creation of a black hole would definitely end drunk driving, n’est pas?
Anyway, while Al Gore and his crew of eco-warriors worry endlessly and obsessively about how much carbon we’re creating and how much fun we’re having, there’s a crew over in Europe somewhere trying to create black [...]
