kos says that Clinton and Obama are not holding up the progressive line on Iraq: Last supplemental, Hillary and Barack hid in the shadows, refusing to talk about the issue. They voted at the last second possible. They may have voted the right way, but did ZERO to move their caucus, the party, and the…

Convienent Lies?
I was wandering around on the site of a favorite author of mine, James P. Hogan, when I came upon a link to an article put out last year by Marlo Lewis, a Senior Fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, in response to Al Gore’s “documentary, ” An Inconvenient Truth. You can find that article…
What kind am I?
I thought I’d use my first post to illustrate what you’ll most likely be hearing from me going forward. In his post on July 24th, 2007 (What Kind of Republican Are You), Marc gives us a link to a site that asks us a series of questions that are designed to illustrate the type of…
Bridge Too Far
The I-35 bridge hadn’t been down for long before the blame game got started. The first such article to catch my eye was posted by Sean Mullen who said: I would like to ask a small favor of the bloggers who are all over this story: Is there even the slightest chance that the maintenance…
Liberal’s Love
The Texas Rainmaker says that liberals all over America are showing their typical grace and genuine love for mankind by publicly proclaiming that they hope Supreme Court Justice John Roberts dies as a result of the seizure he suffered yesterday. A couple of the choice ones TTR rounded up: “Lets hope he is injured seriously….
Two types of Liberal Derangement
First off, I am not a fan of Michael Savage, but one of his books is titled Liberalism is a Mental Disorder and I think he hit that on the head. To whit I will point out two items for your reading pleasure. First, while driving to work this week I was listening to NPR…
Allen West on Liberalism and Islam
Atlas Shrugs posted a brilliant column written by Allen West, a Lt. Colonel running for Congress in Florida. An excerpt: If Liberals admit there is a problem, they could be called upon to act. Liberals are blinded by the fear of action. They rest their hope upon the “reason” and “benevolence” of an enemy, an…
Why Won’t Congress Do What I Want?
That’s the question that’s burning up, that’s literally on fire at many of the so-called “progressive” – liberal – chatterbox blogs these days. It’s an interesting question, actually, because Democrats were recently elected to a majority in Congress based primarily on the fact that they weren’t Republicans. So why won’t the Dems do the things they said…
Liberalism Distilled
It’s humbling to realize that after all of the posts I’ve written in the past few years that I’ve never managed to properly capture the true essence of American liberalism and what is wrong with it. There’s just something elusive about the movement’s illogic that defies description. Just as particle physicists have difficulty tracking the…
Ups and Downs
A few loyal readers may have noticed the lack of posts in recent days…Seems the Black Shards-meister’s broadband connection was down for most of 5 consecutive days. Nice! 🙁 That’s what happens when monopoly powers are at work. Considering where I live some would say we’re lucky to have broadband at all, let alone a…
