« Previous EntriesBottom Line for Barack Obama: His words are meaningless
Monday, June 30th, 2008Of all the issues to go after John McCain on, how high up on the list would you place his military service? The Obama campaign and the fever swamps of the moonbat blogosphere seem to think it is a winning idea.
This is just so stupid it is breathtaking. Is there room under Obama’s [...]
Remembering Clifford Brown
Monday, June 30th, 2008Clifford Brown
Oct. 10, 1930-June 26, 1956
Unless you really follow the history of jazz, you’ve probably never heard of Clifford Brown. That’s your loss. Clifford Brown was a genius, one of the greatest trumpet players of all time. He burst on the jazz scene in the early 1950’s, at a time when the [...]
It’s for the children…Massachusetts style
Sunday, June 29th, 2008If you haven’t seen this yet, prepare to be sickened.
Where to begin with this arrogant pig? First of all, he must be the world’s worst defense attorney if that is his strategy, destroying an 8-year old in a jury trial. I’m sure the jury will be impressed by how tough you are. [...]
Talk About Media Bias…
Sunday, June 29th, 2008While Kevin correctly points out the LA Times “agenda driven jounalism” with regard to how they refer to the percentage of California voters who support preserving traditional marriage as a “narrow margin,” (even though it is actually 19%), they have also falsely repeatedly referred to “gay marriage” now being “legal” in California despite the fact [...]
Obama: One TV ad, one lie
Thursday, June 26th, 2008Again, from Bruce at QandO,
“At 46 seconds in, “That’s why I passed laws … [which] extended health care to wounded troops who’d been neglected” (a citation at the bottom of the screen which reads “Public Law 110 - 181. PL 110-181 came out of HR 4986 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal [...]
The polar ice caps are melting; must be global warming, right?
Thursday, June 26th, 2008It might be. Or it might have a little something to do with this,
Volcanic eruptions reshape Arctic ocean floor: study
PARIS (AFP) - Recent massive volcanoes have risen from the ocean floor deep under the Arctic ice cap, spewing plumes of fragmented magma into the sea, scientists who filmed the aftermath reported Wednesday.
The [...]
Don’t ever say this Supreme Court is conservative!
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008A couple of years ago I was on a grand jury which heard dozens of cases each week. About a quarter of the cases involved either child sexual abuse or child pornography. In each instance, the district attorney’s presented evidence, live testimony from child victims, graphic photos and videos. We went through [...]
LA Times case study in agenda driven journalism
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008Patterico’s Pontifications is one of my favorite blogs. Written by LA County asst. district attorney Patrick Frey, the site is relentless when it comes to exposing the biases of the LA Times.
He has a great one today, highlighting the difference when polling data either fits their world view, or doesn’t.
Supporting Barack Obama, yep, that [...]
Question global warming, go to jail?
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008James Hansen, Director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), went to Washington this week, with the True Believers Playbook in hand. Not surprisingly, he demonized those who question his beliefs about global warming. Like many before him, he was over-the-top in protecting his beloved world view. Ellen Goodman equates skeptics [...]
Obama the orator: I’m not buying the hype
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008Sunday night I wondered aloud why Barack Obama has such a great reputation as an orator. I’ll agree that he gives a good speech. He can read a telepromptor. McCain can’t, he’s terrible at it and the comparison between the two is striking.
However, speaking off the cuff or in an interview or [...]
