I long have criticized the bias of the NY Times, and mocked its business death spiral. My posts Nude Swiss Hikers Rescue NY Times and NY Times New Business Strategy: DEATH mocked the sensationalist trend on The Times’ website. I was the first (as far...

The Obama administration released today four memoranda detailing the legal analysis regarding interrogation techniques, most notably involving Abu Zubaydah. There is a lot of outrage regarding the interrogation techniques approved, but those are mostly non-legal issues. Some of the techniques approved, such as grabbing the...

I attended the Tea Party in Corning, NY, yesterday. There was a good crowd in this relatively small town in western upstate NY (several hours from NY City), several hundred in total. Corning is home to Corning glass and Steuben glass. The entire region has...

Texas Governor Rick Perry said that he doesn’t think Texas should secede from the U.S. Here is Perry’s quote: We got a great Union. There’s absolutely no reason to dissolve it, but if Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people, you know,...

Liberals love to quote Sinclair Lewis’ line that “when fascism comes to America, it will be draped in the flag and carrying a cross.” Lewis was wrong. We have had the flag and Christianity for over 200 years, but we have not had fascism. To...

Update: Welcome NY Times readers. Do not be alarmed. You have not landed on the set of the movie Deliverance. I just happen to have a point of view you don’t hear at The Times. See my related post, I’m Seething Over The NY Times...

Well, that didn’t take long. The crew of the Maersk Alabama, including Captain Richard Phillips, are being warned not to give advice on attacking pirates, lest they become “Joe the Sailors.” And we know what that means: Smears, caricatures, investigations, and abuse from the netroots....

If ever there were poster children for the term “useful idiots,” the Somali pirates would be it. They just don’t know it yet. For years, Somali pirates have run amok off the east coast of Africa, taking advantage of private shipping companies, and taking various...

Liberal bloggers and media groups can’t get the Tea Party phenomenon out of their heads. It wasn’t supposed to be this way, to them. Ordinary people getting together to protest against the liberal establishment. There is a cognitive disconnect. There must be a plot; the...

Rather than worrying about news aggregators stealing its stuff, AP should worry about its credibility. A news article titled Obama Hopes to Use Dealmaking Skills Honed Abroad (run in the NY Times, which seems to be reprinting a lot of AP articles verbatim these days),...

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has a great intellect, but her interview with The New York Times on the issue of foreign law reveals a view of the role of the Court which is odd. The controversy surrounding citing foreign law and foreign judicial...

At a moment in time, David Brooks wrote that “Barack Obama is not who we thought he was” based on Obama’s über-liberal economic policies. It lasted about a day, and several phones calls from the White House, before Brooks backtracked and turned his column into...

Talk about the law of unintended consequences. In countries where a woman has a virtually unfettered right to choose abortion, the result is that women overwhelmingly choose to abort female fetuses. A just published study, reported in the NY Times, of Chinese population growth ties...

The New School, which used to be called the New School for Social Research, is a New York City institution of progressive politics and social theory. The President of the New School is former Democratic Senator Bob Kerrey from Nebraska. Former Navy SEAL and Medal...

Liberal radio talk-show host Ed Schultz was catapulted to fame when he was given a front row seat at Barack Obama’s first presidential press conference. Apparently sensing a star in the making, and a person in favor with the White House, MSNBC hired Schultz for...

Robert Stacy McCain has the run down on the apoplectic reaction of liberals to the “tea parties” sweeping the country. His post appropriately is titled “WTF” based on this hyperventilation (via Instapundit) by someone who apparently only watches MSNBC: President Obama was elected democratically, according...

The dispute regarding the appointment of Harold Koh, Dean of Yale Law School, to the top legal position at the State Department is heating up with the announcement that a coalition of conservative activists is beginning to form around opposition to Harold Koh, President Obama’s...
