I am often asked why I remain a registered Democrat, despite my decidedly fiscal-sanity oriented independent streak. In part, it is how I can effectively fight the "left-right" political paradigm that is being used by the elite media and politicos to divide us, in order to...
Of the 22 candidates in the race for Jesse Jackson Jr's vacated congressional seat (IL-2), 17 Democrats and 5 Republicans, only one candidate is speaking out against the Chicago machine. At a January 12 candidate forum, Republican candidate Paul McKinley set the crowd alight as...
From James O'Keefe (via Charlie Spiering): Veritas video reporter James O’Keefe has released a new video of his team posing as an anti-gun group promoting an initiative to journalists. At each home, the group dubbed as “Citizens Against Senseless Violence” asks each homeowner if they are willing...
A couple of days ago I charitably described Andrew Cohen's embarrassingly gushing celebration of Justice Sonia Sotomayor and her new book in The Atlantic as "treacly drool." It is not alone, accompanied now by a full court liberal press (NPR, CBS News, the New York...
From Leslie: My bumper stickers - just thought I would share!! Bottom one reads: I’m willing to die protecting my 2nd amendment rights. Are you willing to die trying to take them away from me? ...
My wife repeatedly promises to stop cursing at the television. Completely unrelated to that, we didn't watch the Obama press conference today. Via Common Cents, you can watch it for me: Mark Levin apparently watched it. Protein Wisdom has the transcript of Levin's comments. Here's the video: Related: Mark...
I'm crushed for time, as are the other authors. Sometimes that happens. Maybe I'll have something more later this afternoon, maybe I won't. Until then, keep each other informed. Update 6:15 p.m. -- 25 comments with lots of good content, maybe you don't need me after all....
Legal Insurrection is off-limits as "partisan" but The Boston Globe is not?...
I've been giving serious consideration to finally joining the NRA. The people who want to take away your guns (and they would if they could) almost always are the same people who want to control every aspect of your life, from the health care you get to the...
Another one in LukeHandCool's New Roads School series (also here), taken a few days after the election: Professor, Andrew Breitbart was The Lonely Bull(sh*t Fighter). I think each and every one of us feels like a matador now ...
This is a follow up to my post yesterday about Aaron Swartz. Patterico has the full details and documents. It's somewhat complicated. I'll try to summarize Patterico's research briefly. On Friday, the day Swartz committed suicide, papers were filed in his federal criminal case which reflected a possibly significant evidentiary...
California's conservative activists are preparing to battle back Sacramento legislators, who are using the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy and their new super-majority to impose further restrictions on gun ownership. A Fox News report describes some of the proposed measures: Political analysts say the political landscape puts...
An infographic from Mayor Bloomberg's "Mayors against Illegal Guns" depicting "common-sense gun control" shows how graphics can swindle their audiences using simple tricks. Despite the fact that the NRA has condemned the group for being anti-gun, MAIG is attempting to define the terms of the debate in ways...
The end of relationships can get real ugly. In the wake of a Rasmussen poll showing that only 8% of those questioned identified themselves as members of the “tea party”, I asked our group of San Diego citizen activists for their opinions of the cause. Tim Daniel...
The French mathematician and French philosopher Blaise Pascal noted, "The only shame is to have none." I am going to have to disagree. In today's environment, the only shame is having it wrongly turned around and used against you. An advantage of having Democrats/former Democrats (e.g., Tammy...
