This is not a story of bias in the media. It is a story, rather, that affects both the Old Media of newspapers, TV and radio, as well as the New Media of the Internet. Our disagreements with the Old Media aside, we both stand to see trouble if a recent court [...]

In Iraq a U.S. soldier told Jake Rademacher, “I’d give my life for America any day. Wouldn’t think twice.” Jake himself has two brothers serving in Iraq and he wanted to know why? Why are they doing it? So he packed his camera and embeded himself with his brother’s unit in Iraq [...]

The separation of church and state is one of the biggest myths out there. There is no Separation of Church and State clause in our Constitution, although people do have a right to freedom of religion.

“Not letting a good crisis go to waste.” This idea popped up multiple times in the past seven days as multiple members of Obama’s administration seemed to be in total agreement. Their conclusion: by not quickly solving the crisis of the American economy, we can create drastic social and structural change. Not surprisingly, [...]

Yesterday, Dan Riehl wrote that Republicans should get off their duffs and stop playing defense
If (Republicans) had the intelligence and discipline to side-step things like the Limbaugh attack they might have a prayer. Instead of engaging it, they should come back with, This is simply the Democrats trying to prevent a discussion of how much their programs [...]

With apologies to the many fine folks at law that visit these pages, and those of my colleagues on the web that ply the law, today I am going to act the vulgar Shakespearian and advocate to “first kill all the lawyers.” Well, if not kill them exactly, then at least put [...]

This year, the City of San Francisco is spending $122,575 in scarce budget dollars to grow the “Healthy Penis” campaign. No advocates of flaccid government, THIS city council, I gotta tell you! Only a good stiff effort will do.
So what is the “Healthy Penis” campaign? It’s a city wide effort to [...]

A scheme that Bernie Madoff probably approves of

I know, I know, it’s a shocker. Oh, OK, you’re probably saying to your computer screen “well, duh!”, particularly regarding the last word of the headline. Barack Obama ‘too tired’ to give proper welcome to Gordon Brown

Because the temperature rise across the entire 20th century was trivial (just over one half of one degree), the best bet is that the rise (if any) over the 21st century will be trivial too. Warmists avoid that obvious truth by postulating various “amplifying” factors that will make the 21st century rise [...]

The Obamas, Barack and Michelle both, pretty much diplomatically botched the recent visit of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and his wife. Oddly enough, the U.S. Old Media seems uninterested in the story that is a hot topic in England, a story that’s left many Brits a bit miffed.
As the visit [...]
