Perhaps they are right. Perhaps history will eventually be kind to Pres. George W. Bush. It is extremely hard to govern properly and successfully when you believe you are writing your own favorable history by trying not to get dirt on yourself. The other day I pointed out a colum Peggy Noonan wrote on "Obama [...]

I have little affection left for Peggy Noonan since she flung-in with the MSM's hyping, spinning and promoting of the empty-suited Barack Obama in the 2008 election cycle. Her on air swooning over the historic aspect of an Obama presidency aside, she, of all people, failed to point out his vague and empty campaign words, [...]

From The American Spectator, if you read one thing today, read "Jihad Blows Up the Liberal Utopia." Jihad has blown up The Liberal Utopia. The visionary liberal land of political and social perfection. President Obama is not happy — and he isn’t alone. You know the place. The Liberal Utopia is a land where gun background [...]

Very good essay from a blog called "The Hispanic Conservative": [...] The liberals will court you by feigning empathy. Their hearts will apparently bleed for you. They will tell you that the lot of Hispanics is unfair and that you and they share a common threat- conservatives.  They will say that they care so much about [...]

There isn't much good news anywhere these days, and this excellent overview of the crises facing our world, from The DiploMad, won't make you jump for joy. But, it is Easter Sunday. Take some hope in that. So many things going on, and I have less and less desire to comment on them. I would [...]

Wake him when Rome stops burning, huh? "US economy expands at 0.4 percent rate" "MARC FABER: Not Even Gold Will Save You From What Is Coming" Them city folks and we-uns are pretty much alike, Though they ain't used to living in the sticks. We don't like stone or cement, but we is in agreement [...]

The DiploMad weighs in On Gay Marriage: As a self-declared libertarian with an asterisk who wants the government out of as many aspects of our lives as is humanly possible even while supporting a big and mean US military capable of reducing our enemies into puddles of goo and piles of ash and rubble, I [...]

Balls and principles. We need tens of thousands more like him. Listen closely to the classiest put-down of the President I've heard to date.

The always great Baldilocks has written a short but incisive essay about the importance of the individual in families. Read "The Difference." [...] But what made a Ben Carson or a Steve Jobs different from the children in the second video? What makes the children who grew up in the early 60s and prior without [...]

This exclusive report from Reuters outlines how all American's private bank accounts could become open territory for ALL U.S. "spy agencies" under Obama's latest overreach plan... The Obama administration is drawing up plans to give all U.S. spy agencies full access to a massive database that contains financial data on American citizens and others who [...]

Isn't it refreshing to hear a Republican -- a Senator, no less! -- echoing my mantra of "balls and principles" to a receptive audience? If conservatism is to survive, we need the cloning machines to start working right now: Rubio, Cruz, Rand. We need thirty three clones of each... On Wednesday night, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) [...]

"Between Bloomberg's sugary drink ban being overturned and Hugo Chavez checking out, it's been a tough six days for billionaire dictators." --Diogenes' Middle Finger

...Just watch this video. Morons. Imbeciles. Democrats. The irrevocably stupid and terminally imbecilic are running the show. John Galt, where the hell are you?

An important history lesson from the CORE, the Congress of Racial Equality: (H/T Miguel at GunFreeZone.net)

You know how I get all a-twitter over irony? Recall it was just a couple days ago Sen. Rand Paul stood for nearly thirteen long hours in filibuster stating over and over again how unconstitutional the Obama administration's ambiguous drone program is (run by the CIA), most especially the ability to strike non-combatant Americans on [...]
