There was a recent article in the WSJ by Amy Chua detailing the superiority of Chinese mothers. “[The author was] using the term “Chinese mother” loosely. [As s]ome Korean, Indian, Jamaican, Irish and Ghanaian parents qualify too.” Basically, being a Chinese mother entails never letting...

My favorite Congressman, Paul Ryan, is really on the ball this Sunday. Today, he was on Fox discussing the end of looming tax hikes. He also had an op-ed published in one of his hometown newspapers. “The deficit debate is not merely an exercise in...

I think a lot of conservatives are afraid to put bumper stickers on their cars for fear of vandalism.  Call it the “driving while conservative” phenomenon; or maybe “parking while conservative.” Vandalism of McCain signs, and houses/car bearing those signs, was widespread during the 2008...

The day after Obamacare passed, I wrote Pep Talk.  Seems pertinent today as well: Last night was bad. The law passed by the Senate and House really is that horrible. But it’s the morning after, and your mourning should be over. The mainstream media and...

I wasn’t going to post on this, because I figured there had been enough publicity for him already.  But now that I see (via Instapundit and TaxProf) that the controversy has made its way into Forbes and many major websites, I’ll weigh in on the case of...

Tipping point approaching.  From The NY Times, Fewer Young Voters See Themselves as Democrats The college vote is up for grabs this year — to an extent that would have seemed unlikely two years ago, when a generation of young people seemed to swoon over...

I previously posted about how Jews were being driven out of Malmö, Sweden, by violence from Muslim immigrants tolerated by anti-Israel leftists, Malmö Syndrome. As I made clear in that post, Malmö Syndrome was just one of many examples of how anti-Semitism inevitably rises from...

I said it: Oh, please. Obama’s multi-trillion dollar spending spree is a lobbyist’s wet dream. More money will be made by more lobbyists divvying up this pork than in the collective history of the United States. And they dreamed it: I can’t believe I put...

Definitely a day of F.O.M.S. (fear of missing something). I couldn’t hit the blog during the day today because of meetings, and while I was away, the whole world freaked out. Resignations, arguments, threats, more resignations, and then some: Obama debated Sarah Palin on nuclear...

Last night was bad. The law passed by the Senate and House really is that horrible. But it’s the morning after, and your mourning should be over. The mainstream media and the nutroots will try to demoralize you, and there will be plenty of gloat...
