E-Mail to a Troll

More than 15 years have passed since I first read Thomas Sowell’s brilliant book, The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy. Few things have ever made such a profound impression on me as Sowell’s analysis of liberalism as a philosophy rooted in the liberal’s narcissistic desire to believe he is the […]

‘Her Fiancé, Garry Brown Sr., the Man Who Fathered 10 of Her 15 Children …’

Something about hearing that sentence in the video stuck in my head, besides the fact that the sentence ended with “… was arrested,” but you have to do some research to discover that Brown is currently serving a five-year-sentence for dealing cocaine. The Florida woman’s name is Angel Adams and she says her children are […]

Want America To Fail? Heed Van Jones

Ed Schultz and Eric Boehlert on MSNBC Two weeks ago, Jeff Dunetz took note of M.J.

Rosenberg, who had been espousing the “Jews Against Israel” gibberish we’ve recently heard from the far-left “J-Street” movement. Rosenberg tried to portray this move as voluntary, but in an update on the […]

Too Stupid for Media Matters

In a sidebar headline at AOSHQ, I noticed a story from The Lid: BREAKING: MJ Rosenberg OUT At Media Matters Hmmm. Media Matters fires some guy. What’s this about? Rosenberg’s offense was describing pro-Israel Jews as “Israel Firsters.” Which is to say, Rosenberg thinks his fellow Jews are too pro-Israel. Let me see if I […]

‘News’ From the Liberal Media Meme Factory: Women Hate Rick Santorum

You may have already seen this Rick Santorum campaign ad, but I ask you to take 30 seconds to click and play the video again. Try to watch it while asking yourself, “Will women vote for this guy?” Sure! Why the heck not? Maybe he’s not movie-star handsome like Mitt Romney, but you can’t say […]

News Flash: Democrats Lie (and Have Conniptions When They Get Caught)

Four days after House Republicans voted to approve Rep. Paul Ryan’s budget plan, “the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee released a Web ad that said seniors will have to pay $12,500 more for health care ‘because Republicans voted to end Medicare,’ ” the non-partisan Web site PolitiFact says, declaring this the 2011 “Lie of the Year.” […]
