Today\’s Paragraph Of The Day (actually, two small paragraphs compacted into one) comes to us from the brilliant Charles Krauthammer. Here is his take on what has devolved in to our “deal” with Iran – the one we are supposed to be so happy about; the one that President Obama hopes will stand out as part of his legacy: Taken together, the catalogue of capitulations is...
What you see in the picture below is real. Not a real gun, but a real cell phone case. The only thing more idiotic than the company which created this cell phone case is anyone who would buy it….and, thereby, risk having him/herself shot to death for doing nothing other than trying to answer a call. Here is what the case looks like in someone\’s pocket – i.e...
How complete is the far-left takeover of college campuses around the country? Now, even Obama administration members are starting to get worried. Excerpted from former Obama appointee Cass Sunstein\’s article at bloombergview.com: As my fellow Bloomberg View columnist Noah Smith pointed out last week, for example, the University of California at Berkeley has signaled its...
Here, pulled from the invaluable drudgereport.com, is a group of links that should explain the title of this blog: SANDERS PACKS THEM IN...FILLS 10,000-SEAT STADIUM...VIDEO... GAINS IN IOWA...Soros Urgently Helps Clinton Raise $20M...WEBB JOINS RACE...Donors lining up for Biden... If Bernie Sanders – who, at 73 years old, Jewish and a self professed socialist, is not what...
Ken Berwitz Apropos of nothing political… …it is getting too serious in here, so I thought I\’d, er, inject a little scientific knowledge into the mix. Do you know how a certain variety of flatworm – specifically the macrotomum hystrix – reproduces if it can\’t find a mate? Unaccountably, I suspect you probably do not. So let me show you a picture...
Did you hear about the “Gaza Flotilla” – a convoy of ships, leaving from Sweden, which intended to break the Israeli naval blockade of Gaza? It\’s a good bet you might have, given the amount of international media attention it got. But I bet you didn\’t hear out it turned out. So let me give you a heads-up. Four ships left port, supposedly loaded with...
Can you believe a famous, powerful man said something like this? “We should not be encouraging illegal immigration. What we should be doing is setting up a smart, legal immigration system that doesn\’t separate families, but does focus on making sure that people who are dangerous, people who are gang-bangers or criminals – that we\’re deporting them as quickly as...
Today\’s paragraph(s) come to us from Ed Rogers….who, though (I believe) a Republican, has been given a voice at the Washington Post. Here is what Mr. Rogers has to say about a possible Joe Biden candidacy: …the Hillary Clinton campaign is limping along as a synthetic, tired, manufactured exercise that appears to be – at best – winning by default. I...
Should state employees, whose religious beliefs cause them to oppose same-sex marriages, be allowed to refuse issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples? Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal thinks so. So does former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee. And it would not in any way surprise me if some number of other Republican presidential candidates agree with them. New Jersey Governor Chris...
Unemployment is down to 5.3%. This is being hailed by Obama & Co. as some kind of triumph. Is it? In 2009. when newly elected President Barack Obama and his 60% Democrat majorities in both houses of congress, passed the so-called “Stimulus Package”, his administration issued a graph showing that, without this package, unemployment, which then was about 8%, would jump to...
Following is a back-and-forth which occurred yesterday between CNN host Don Lemon and Donald Trump, centering around a statistic from an article in “Fusion” (which, fascinatingly, is put out by Univision) estimating that 80% of the central American females illegally transported across the Mexican border to the USA are raped along the way (no, that is not a...
There is a report at hollywoodreporter.com that keith olbermann, who, professionally speaking, has burnt more bridges than the allies during WWII, is being told to knock off the commentaries he is so fond of making…the implicit threat seeming to be that, if he persists, his contract will not be renewed when it runs out next month. If you are surprised at all by this, you don\’t...
Nicholas Winton, “The British Schindler” – a man who, singlehandedly, saved over 650 Jewish children from the nazi holocaust – has died at the remarkable age of 106. You can read all about how he was able to do so by reading Naomi Koppel\’s article in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. If you do, you\’ll find that Mr. Winton became aware...
TV Land, the Warner Bros./Viacom-owned cable station, has pulled The Dukes Of Hazzard” from its lineup of shows, because the Dukes\’ car has a confederate flag on it. The confederate flag, you see, is too offensive to be shown. According to Kip Jones\’ article at breitbart.com, “WB announced the move as major retailers Walmart, Amazon, eBay, and Sears all introduced bans...
Last night, the State Department – which Hillary Clinton used to be in charge of – dumped 3,000 more of her emails – including at least two dozen which are now classified, but used to not be. Here is what Michael Schmidt, who writes for the Clinton-loving New York Times, had to say about this: “What happened last night, was actually kind of interesting. The...
