  • Failure to Admit Blagojevich Appointee to Senate Big Mistake

    Failure to Admit Illinois Governor Blagojevich's Appointee, the eminently qualified and well reputed Roland Burris, to the United States Senate will prove to be a supremely Big Mistake made by the Democratic Senate Leadership and yes, Barack Obama. News today is that the U.S. Senate will seat 59 Democratic Senators, including their Candidate ...

  • Wow -- What a Rant by "Rage Boy" Chris Hitch Today

    I am perfectly content, really quite happy, about Obama's decision to have this mega-Church author, pastor, and cultural figure, Rick Warren, give the prayer at the January 20th Inauguration of our new United States President. I understand the apoplexy of ''Rage Boy'' Christopher Hitchens at the very thought of a prayer being said, let alone a ...

  • Correction of E. Bazelon & J. Resnik Distortion of US Const.

    I am responding to an article by E. Bazelon & J. Resnik, reluctantly. I say reluctantly because I find it disturbing to have to correct a foreigner on their own country's culture, much less politics. The aforementioned individuals made the extraordinary claim that ''Obama should look when he makes his first appointments to the bench''. ...

  • Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..

    ... ABORTION. Lithwick's very idea that women do not have reproductive choice, if they cannot extinquish the life growing in their own wombs, is in and of itself faulty. I mean, my God, did the female have sex with the guy, or did she not? As to being ''for change'' in everything but pro-Abort American policies at home and abroad, not everyone ...

  • Liberal Media Lies

    Political logic augurs a Democratic triumph in looming US elections but Barack Obama’s White House duel with John McCain is still a statistical tie, prompting some to wonder why he is yet to break away. Political logic augurs a democratic triumph? Augur: To predict, especially from signs or omens; foretell. What signs or omens are they looking ...
