The great Stevie J West expounds on the real celebration going on today -- hint: it ain't about the Earth: Happy “We’re really celebrating the birthday of one of our leftist heroes, Lenin, in addition to the eco-tyranny we’re pushing, but we don’t want to advertise our love of the Bolsheviks to the aggressively ignorant [...]

Last week it was the tale of two black women in Cuba. This week it's the tale of two rappers. Well, that was fast, huh? You wrote a real good rap song, real good rap song, Jay-Z. It's all about his trip to Cuba and his transforming and enlightening experiences there. Must've wrote it on [...]

Lego to stop production of Star Wars set due to Muslim 'sensitivity': Lego will cease production of a popular “Star Wars” toy set after Muslim communities complained about the product as the company says the criticism played no part in the decision to do so.

In October of 2008 I posted links to the YouTube videos of the documentary about the Weather Underground. It is a damning documentary that exposes these radical fro what they are. Today, from Michelle Malkin, we learn that a movie -- a hagiography -- is being released about these murderers and terrorists. Is it any wonder [...]

Folks, I think you all know that on this blog we call it like we see it. I have felt for the longest time that we have to stop sugar-coating who these liberals and progressives are and call them what they are: marxists, socialists, and crypto-communists. Here is a case in point, via Trevor Loudon's [...]

For Andrew I have writer's block. It's not that I can't find stuff to write about, but rather that everything that I write ends up in the recycle bin when I proof it. It ends up there not because it lacks substance or the delivery is less than what I set up as a standard [...]

Researchers surveyed 729 people who [...]

I had a conversation with the parent of one of my rec league basketball team kids last week that was rather insightful, and (in my opinion) indicative of the larger problem facing this country today.

Hot on the heels of CAIR telling journalists not to use the term "Islamist" because it's Extremist/Racist/Sexist/Homophobic™ (or whatever), comes a thoughtful essay From The American Spectator, about our Islamist predicament. At least since 9/11, the Muslim jihad against the West has led to a number of eloquent books detailing the plight of the West [...]

...but NOT as he would have wanted, going down in a blaze of glory like Che Guevara, perhaps in mortal combat with U.S. Marines. Nope, the Venezuelan dictator and Numero Uno fan of the bearded beast is going down at the hands of Castro's medical machine, helpless, in pain, taking orders from Cuban state doctors. [...]

If there was a saving Grace to those days spent in Cuba between the advent of la puta revolución and the bittersweet day of our departure, it was that we were one of the few houses in our block who actually owned a working television. We were gusanos, but that old Zenith B&W set made [...]

...out will pop a Commie or a Nazi. Here are two related stories. The first, from a couple of weeks ago, has a Democratic Congressman calling to limit freedom of speech by legislation and constitutional amendment. A Democratic representative is calling for an amendment to the United States Constitution that would allow for some legislative restriction of freedom [...]

Luis's recent coming out of the post-election head trauma coma post doesn't leave a whole lotta head left on the nail because he hit it so damn hard and square. I have been shaking my head over the last few weeks myself. I go out amongst the electorate and mingle in the day-to-day activities we [...]

Citing an unnamed intelligence source, ABC's Washington correspondent Emil J. Blasco says there has been a recurrence and spread of the tumor, which was [...]

This artist's depiction of Barack Obama as the crucified Christ was done a couple years ago. It will be part of a display in Boston at a community college art gallery until December 15th. You see, in this current atmosphere of being immediately offended by either obvious, obscure, or even non-existent insult or offense (typically [...]
