The Bold, the Brave, the Wrong
American Spectator associate editor W. James Antle III rang out the old year by highlighting his most misbegotten predictions of 2010: 4. Christine O’Donnell is a no-hoper in the primary. I wasn’t confident enough in that one to make the prediction publicly, but I did dissuade an intern from writing a piece that took her […]
Did President Obama Invent Muslim Victims of Egyptian Church Bombing?
Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit notes that although Obama issued a statement saying that the New Year’s Day bombing at a Coptic church in Alexandria caused “deaths and dozens of injured from both the Christian and Muslim communities,” news reports indicate all 21 killed were Christians, as were 71 of the 79 reported injured. So even though […]
$20 Says Eugene Volokh Had Sunday’s Most-Clicked Link on Instapundit
This delivered at least 5,000 hits in the first four hours: MORE ON THE CASE OF THAT SENSUOUS TOPLESS ITALIAN SUNBATHER. The Italian justice system seems to have delivered. Some things are predictable. For instance, when the defendant’s attorney begins a sentence, “Let’s be clear my client is tall, brunette and has an ample breast and is […]

He thinks Democrats should stop offering it. The bumper sticker is available on the Wisconsin Democratic Party’s website. The sticker is emblazoned with the […]
‘Twentysomething Unwashed Creeps in Balaclavas Who Simultaneously Reek of Patchouli Oil and Rage Against the Machine’
Moe Lane sure knows how to turn a phrase, doesn’t he? Myself, I prefer the simple old-fashioned “godless Bolshevik scum,” but your mileage may vary. (Hat-tip: Instapundit.)
Terrorism: Obama’s Against It
“I strongly condemn the separate and outrageous terrorist bombing attacks in Egypt and Nigeria.” Nice of him to make this clear, considering his long association with unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers. Associated Press video of the reaction in Egypt: This whole throwing-rocks-at-the-police thing doesn’t strike me as the Christian thing to do, but consider how Christians […]
‘In One of the Wiser Posts I Have Seen’
Eric at Classical Values knows what words to put beside my name in a post about the alleged conflict between social conservatives and economic conservatives. When (alleged) libertarian Ryan Sager was pushing this “House Divided” angle from one side, I denounced it. And now that some people are pushing it from the other side, I denounce it […]
