This post will automatically beg the question: Why would anyone care what some 14-year-old kid likes in the realm of comedy and music videos? Do we really want to view his top-10 lineup? Aren’t there more important things to waste our time with? Well, I would posit that it’s good to at least know what [...]

When Discussing Violent Religious Persecution in Sudan, NEVER Say “Islam”
July 14, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Not having had a chance to read NewsReal yesterday until the evening (that pesky income producing job keeps getting in the way), but belatedly armed with an “Islamic” post that I was planning on submitting for review, it was interesting to see – in three prior posts from the same day – how tentative (and [...]
The Arizona “Repugnant”: Spineless Water-Carrier for the Left in the Immigration Wars
June 28, 2010 By Leave a Comment
There’s a reason J.D. Hayworth calls it the Arizona Repugnant, and he’s not alone. Many residents of the Grand Canyon State find the Arizona Republic to be little more than the unofficial house organ of the State’s Democratic Party, and have taken to ignoring it in ever-increasing numbers.
Which hasn’t affected the paper’s mission to change [...]
This is What’s Awaiting America if our Socialist “Genius-in-Chief” Gets His Way
June 18, 2010 By Leave a Comment
In the European Socialist order of things, “austerity” doesn’t have a whole lot to do with cutting waste. If you are short on funds and want to improve your solvency and your ability to do business world-wide, you…
Raise taxes!
In the article “France and Spain Act to Rein In Budgets“ that appeared in the New York Times June [...]
Why Would David Swindle (or any Conservative) be Pro-Choice?
June 14, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Having read both Calvin Freiburger’s excellent piece on Abortion (Leftists: Being Pro-Life is Selfish, Good People Endorse Murder), and David Swindle’s response (Murder? Having Your Cake and Eating it Too on Abortion Rhetoric), I can only say that we are getting caught up in semantics when the real issue is what legal protections we should [...]
Baseball or Cricket, U.S. or South Africa: The Lawyers are the Same
June 9, 2010 By Leave a Comment
It is easy to feel a moment of anxiety or psychological disconnect while reading Sports Illustrated South Africa: The sylvan pastures of baseball are nowhere to be found; instead you have grown men dressed like really fashionable jockeys whacking balls at croquet hoops. And what’s the deal with the bat, anyway? Did they forget to [...]
The President Campaigns – And Republicans Widen Their Lead
February 17, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Robert P. Kirchhoefer isn’t being a turncoat when he writes that President Obama’s “Save the Senate” tour (going on this week in Nevada and Colorado) is something he can truly
“…get behind.”
After all, as Kirchhoefer’s February 16th AmSpecBlog post illustrates (with background from Joseph Curl’s same-day article in the Washington Times), our Feckless Leader is doing [...]
Collector Conservatism, Part Five: Divorce Debt – The Gift That Keeps On Giving

To read episodes 1-4 in the Collector Conservatism series, click here.
OK, OK, my buddy Steve’s ex-wife (the marriage was officially dissolved yesterday) isn’t nearly as goofy as the woman in the following YouTube video, who complains about eviction from a luxury apartment and the measly 750k settlement her husband is offering to settle their, um, [...]
The American Spectator: Helping Guys Like Me With The Ladies Since 1924
February 1, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Not many guys are as lucky as me: After a 17-year absence from the dating world, who woulda thunk that I would be lucky enough to meet, and then actually date, a very smart, sassy and sexy librarian! I’m still pinching myself…and in between the non-stop grin and the endless worrying over how I’m gonna [...]
Lawyer Roy’s Doin’ His Job: Abdulmutallab “Remains Silent”
January 30, 2010 By Leave a Comment
OK, OK, I’m not always right, but in this case it was a no-brainer. Fortified by a complete and utter lack of morals and a nonexistent regard for the sufferings of others, Lawyer Roy is putting his entire, um, heart and soul into the defense of his new client, the doltish, malleable, and more than [...]
