So, I suppose it was only a matter of time. I mean apples, trees and what not. Full disclosure my dog in this fight is: “No Democrats” So No Hillary, No Sanders, No Trump. Today on CNN (Just about 7:30AM CT) Rand was posed the birther question and he decided to roll with it. Apparently,…

You’re Missing The Point: Our Boats Were Captured By A Foreign Power, And We Did Nothing.
Some on the Right are tearing their hair and hyperventilating about some mild violation of the Geneva Conventions by Iran with their videotaping and photographing of our captured sailors. I see nothing outrageous about that, even if it is a technical violation of the Conventions. We show video of enemy combatants at Guantanamo and elsewhere,…
Irony: Schumer & Extremely Well Paid Ex-Prof. Warren Launch “Students #InTheRed campaign”
First thing’s first. I call upon @Instapundit and all other well tweeted conservatives: HIJACK THIS HASHTAG!. They did this on CNN this morning. There’s no level of irony too high here. Elizabeth Warren was paid nearly $350k at Harvard according to the notorious Right Leaning lie factory…The Boston Globe. Indeed, if Republican’s had any sense…
Judenfrei Is The Goal, And Europe Doesn’t Mind
This surprises me not at all. That any Jew desires to remain in Europe, and isn’t heavily armed and willing to use deadly force on the many 21st century Nazis in their midst is what surprises me. The oh-so-sophisticated Europeans have never forgiven the Jews for their temerity to survive Hitler and the Holocaust. They…
I Am A Responsible Gun Owner, And I Do Not Support Any “Sensible Restrictions”
And as a citizen of a free society I accept that there may be more Newtowns and Charlestons in our future. But freedom has never been a cost-free proposition. We accept the chaos of free speech (although the academy is hell-bent on changing that) — knowing that incitement will occur, and people will be injured…
The unbelievable arrogance of the Left.
This originally started out as a rant against President Obama, then Neontaster and MWR put this in my twitter timeline: https://twitter.com/JessicaValenti/status/684463837748281348 The President said much the same type of thing in his speech about being “numb” and not caring and whatever straw men he usually spouts. How dare both of they. It’s offensive that you…
A tale of two regulatory states
So, Obama’s going to release some feckless gun regulations. Unless he changes the definition of “in the business of selling guns” to include anyone who ever so much as sold a gun to a friend, I’m sorta nonplussed by this actually. And that’s what surprises me. On the one hand you have a lawless administration…
Why Should The FDA Be Allowed To Tell Us What Drugs To Take, And Not To Take?
A recent article in the NY Times about the FDA regulator responsible for oncology drugs, and his miraculous epiphany that maybe the glacial pace of approvals wasn’t such a good idea, has hardened my resolve that the FDA is, at best, a neutral organization, and at worst, which means always, is a destructive and retrograde…
Reflections on a year gone by
Thus far I’ve largely tried to avoid hugely introspective posts, because I know no one wants to read what amounts to a personal diary. Having said that, a lot has happened in the last 12 months, so I thought reflecting on it might be at least interesting enough to post, a pretty low bar. As…
