The enormous mushroom cloud, the earth-shaking earthquake-like reverberations, the secondary explosions.

We’re heard a lot of noise from Syria, but relatively little about casualties.

The NY Times reports over 100 dead soldiers:

The attack, which sent brightly lighted columns of smoke and ash high into the night sky above the Syrian capital, struck several...

There’s no such thing as a free immigration amnesty

Comments

Posted by    Monday, May 6, 2013 at 11:20am

Amnesty, and particularly citizenship, for people who broke the law to get here is bad policy because it rewards law breakers and advantages them over law abiders.

It’s also very costly, as a study released by the Heritage Foundation demonstrates, The Fiscal Cost of Unlawful Immigrants and Amnesty to the...

Congressman Ed Markey is the Democratic candidate for the Special Election to fill the Senate seat vacated by John Kerry.   Markey is just a few points ahead of challenger Gabriel Gomez.

Markey has come under intense criticism for his first negative ad against Gomez, which depicted the former Navy pilot and SEAL with an overlay of Osama bin Laden,...

Patriot’s Day

From LukeHandCool:
This van was heading west towards the beach down Wilshire Boulevard in the Peeps Progressive Republic of Santa Monica, California. Only kind of bumper sticker mentioning the troops you'll usually see here on the Westside of L.A. is the disingenuous, "Support Our Troops, Bring Them Home." As we know, they don't want to come home until they feel they've finished the job, which this van so beautifully depicts. I think the stoplight was red when I snapped the picture, like you always remind us, but I can't really remember, being a bit tipsy as I was. Yes, yes, I kid.

End time, strangest possibly “best” campaign ad ever

I don’t know who is behind this.

I literally don’t know, but I have my suspicions. There’s only one person who could make such a thing, but I’m not naming names unless he or she comes out. But it’s just a suspicion.

I have to say, “both of the candidates in...

I think Carville is sincere here.

Via Mediaite:

“I think he is the most talented and fearless Republican politician I’ve seen in the last 30 years,” Carville asserted emphatically, as the panel discussed Cruz’s reported presidential aspirations. “I further think that he is going to run for president, and he is going to...

The death of the Tea Party movement has been greatly exaggerated.

It wasn’t that long ago that the death of the Tea Party Caucus in Congress, a sure sign that the movement had fallen apart, was celebrated by the great intellect of MSNBC:

Judge Jeanine Pirro on Boston lockdown: “You want me to believe I’m safer without a gun?”

Comments

Posted by    Sunday, May 5, 2013 at 12:00pm

At the time of the lockdown of Boston after the bombing, I noted that the Boston lock-down exposes gun culture divide over the issue of whether citizens hold up in their homes would be safer if armed.

That suggestion caused a vehement reaction from liberals on Twitter, including the now infamous suggestion from one...
