The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Is Glenn Reynolds Fatwa-Worthy?

The professor mocks the Religion of Peace: Comedy Central cowers in the face of a murder threat/warning against “South Park” creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Obviously, Christians — and Sarah Palin fans, and lovers of My Mother The Car — should take heed of this incentive system our modern media is creating. Don’t want […]

VIDEO: Rubio Calls Obama Terrorism Policy ‘Short-Sighted’ and ‘Misguided,’ Approves Israeli Strike on Iran Nukes

Javier Manjarres at the Shark Tank gets this video interview with the Florida Republican candidate for Senate: Asked about the administration’s decision to strike terms like “jihad” and “Islamic radicalism” from national-security documents, Rubio says: “It’s naive, short-sighted, quite frankly, misguided in terms of what he thinks he’s going to accomplish. These folks don’t attack America because of […]

Mark Potok and the Hijacking of ‘Hate’

It was 1997 and I was a columnist for the Rome (Ga.) News-Tribune when the latest copy of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s “Intelligence Report” arrived at the office.
