Only hearing what you want to hear

I've often criticized various newspapers for failing to provide a variety (usually opposing) views on their letters pages. The Los Angeles Times, in probably the most egregious case I've seen in quite awhile, illustrated this problem when they didn't publish a single letter criticizing an A1 North Korean propaganda piece. I monitored The New York […]

Democrats and their judicial filibusters

Sen. Harry Reid has now made it clear that the filibusters the Democrats are waging against President Bush's judicial nominees aren't about having time to debate the merits of the judges, but instead are about "checks and balances." Fine. Honesty is a good thing. But let's take that "checks and balances" misnomer -- the filibuster […]

Still no answers

New York Times columnist continues to deliver on his promise to demagogue America's health care system, but ignores his long-ago promise to offer solutions to the Social Security crisis. For those who are interested in some of the problems with Krugman's analysis, I point you to this piece by David Hogberg.

No intelligence required

California's "smarter" senator, Dianne Feinstein, has made a shocking discovery: nuclear weapons kill people. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said the study confirms that nuclear bunker busters cannot dig deep enough to prevent large casualties. "The bottom line is that it would result in the deaths of up to a million people or more if used […]

Harry Reid on the Senate floor

I'm watching Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid defend the unprecedented filibuster of judicial nominees on the Senate floor. Reid characterized a Frist proposal to change the Senate rules as a "big fat wet kiss to the far right." Frankly, I'm surprised Reid was able to get that out when he's got Ralph Neas' tongue so […]

The lie that won't die

Another Democrat politician attempted -- again -- to give new impetus to the left-wing loonies who are obsessed with the possibility of a draft. Sen. Daniel Inouye, the Democrat from Hawaii, said, "For the first time in many years the Army and Marine Corps are not meeting their recruiting targets. There are some who are […]

Excuse me while I recover from my heart attack

The Los Angeles Times editorial page comes out in support of the "nuclear option." Let's give credit where credit is due. Unlike some other newspapers, the Times is taking a principled stance, not a partisan one, and they should be commended for it.

Bigotry on the left

Sen. Chuck Schumer famously expressed skepticism whether then-Alabama Attorney General William Pryor could uphold the law if a case came before him that conflicted with his "deeply held" (religious) beliefs. Republicans, not being complete and total idiots, recognized that this was a code -- though expressly prohibited by the Constitution, the senior senator from New […]

What a heaping load of dung

Nicholas Kristof is often misguided, but he is not often as blatantly dishonest as he is in Tuesday's column. Here's a foreign affairs quiz: (1) How many nuclear weapons did North Korea produce in Bill Clinton's eight years of office? (2) How many nuclear weapons has it produced so far in President Bush's four years […]
