Thanksgiving is the wrong day on which to mark the murder of a Texas State Trooper, gunned down in his vehicle after stopping Darbrett Black, a repeat criminal offender. The public safety department said the trooper made a traffic stop about 3:45 p.m. on Interstate-45 in Freestone County. The trooper went up to the car,…

A Country Gone Mad
The United Kingdom is our parent country in many respects; however, it seems that our cousins across the Atlantic have gone mad, first with their kow-towing to Muslim extremism in their streets and now by actively seeking out – and presumedly correcting – racist toddlers: Teachers are being forced to report children as young as…
Justice System Fails, Cop Killer and Child Rapist Run Free
East of Houston, Baytown residents are looking over their shoulders tonight as a repeat rapist and child molester runs free, possibly in their town. Meanwhile, most of a continent away, Seattle residents are likewise afraid after 4 police officers were gunned down by Maurice Clemmons in a coffee shop in that city. Not a good…
Eric Holder’s Speech on Race Right On the Money
Attorney General Eric Holder gave America reason to believe in him today through a speech he gave to Justice Department employees and comments he made afterward: “Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and I believe continue to be, in too many…
Obama’s Race Problem – Real or Imagined?
Using Princeton political scientist Tali Mendelberg as a source, John Judis wrote: …her ideas and those of other academics help to shed light on what has happened so far in the primaries and what might unfold once Obama wraps up the nomination.

Only Racists Vote for McCain
That’s the pile of bullshit that Jacob Weisberg dropped at Slate this morning. Small wonder that the majority of Americans now recognize a distinct liberal bias in the media. How could they not? Weisberg: If it makes you feel better, you can rationalize Obama’s missing 10-point lead on the basis of Clintonite sulkiness, his slowness…
Obama: No Slavery Reparations
No presidential candidate running in a competitive campaign would dare stake out a position in favor of giving reparations to the ancestors of African slaves and, happily, Barack Obama, pure political animal that he is, is no exception. “I have said in the past — and I’ll repeat again — that the best reparations we…
Obama not Black Enough?
That’s what Jesse Jackson seems to think, apology or no. Once again stealth journalism reveals the unpleasant truth about our so-called leaders. This is the Jesse Jackson we always knew was lurking just below the surface of his image. Gotta love it. Question: Will he be castigated as thoroughly as a honky would be for…
Barack Obama Leads With the Race Card
He still hasn’t been officially nominated as the Democratic candidate for president yet, but Barack Obama has taken control of the Democratic National Convention, trotted out a cheesy knock-off of the presidential seal, and now, like a Euchre player leading with off-suit ace, he’s played the race card early by stating Republicans will use his…
Voting While Guilty
At Slate, Ron Rosenbaum says that it’s not wrong to vote for Barack Obama because of his race. This is an assertion I’m highly resistant to. I believe my vote ought to be for the candidate who is most likely to do the things I believe are right for the nation – the candidate who…
