2008-06-17 06:19:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Several years ago, the New York Times thought they had a major story of Walmart working behind the scenes with several conservative think tanks and pundits to create Walmart policy.

2008-06-17 06:19:00 -By Thomas E.

Are Liberals Non-thinkers, Bigots, or Only Stupid?
2008-06-17 06:19:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. Left-wing liberals are bad news for any nation while informed conservatives are a bright spot in a dark, dismal, and decadent day. That spot is brighter when those conservatives are Christians. Now, I?m not suggesting that all liberals are socialists, communists and traitors; some are only stupid, while others are simply bigots. ... More About: Liberals , Stupid
Blue Dog?s Obama Dilemma
2008-06-11 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston In 1996 a small handful of Democrats won election to the House of Representatives because they were supposedly “conservative” Democrats.

Miami Herald: 2nd Amendment is ?Mythical Right ?
2008-06-11 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston The Miami (FL) Herald let lose with another propagandistic broadside against the 2nd Amendment on Thursday featuring some more moaning and false statements about how horrible it is for America that the misnamed “assault weapons ban” has lapsed. There is much wringing of hands, waterworks, histrionics and over dramatics by the aptly ... More About: Miami Herald
FL Paper: Americans Want Out of USA, But NO Proof Offered

Media Get it Wrong: 1 in 4 Teens do NOT Have STDs
2008-06-10 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Could science and statistics be beyond the media’s ability to understand and report upon them? One might be excused to think so by the hash the MSM made of the supposed claim that in the U.S. one in four teenaged girls have a sexually transmitted disease. On March 11, the CDC issued ...

Making Fun of ?Bush-isms,? Movie Reviewer Makes Self Look Uneducated
2008-06-10 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston I was tooling about the Internets looking for movie reviews and came across a hilarious example of “stupid is as stupid does” that I just couldn’t resist fisking here.

How Many Rights Are Democrats Willing to Forfeit?
2008-06-10 00:00:00 -By Frank Salvato With the announcement that Hillary Clinton is abandoning her quest for the Oval Office the Democrat National Committee (DNC) ? and specifically the DNC?s Rules and Bylaws Committee ? has effectively selected the candidate for their party. I say selected because, by construct, the decision making process was taken away from the party ... More About: Democrats , Rights
Why a Lack of Openness Sullies the Integrity of Google?s Ad Auctions
2008-06-10 00:00:00 -By Scott Cleland Does Google warrant the current exceptional leap-of-faith in the integrity of its dominant ad auction model, given its near total lack of openness, transparency, independent auditability or third party oversight? There is a growing body of evidence that Google does not. The New York Times article today by Miguel Helft, “The Human Hands ... More About: Integrity , Auctions , Lack
Hollywood Miscasting: Danny Glover as President of the U.S.!
2008-06-08 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston In a movie role miscasting that would be akin to picking Michael Moore to portray George W. Bush, a new flick that is starting production soon will feature an unlikely actor as the president of the United States of America.

Just Waterboard Me
2008-06-08 00:00:00 -By Lee Culpepper Yes, it is natural to panic now. America is in trouble when both presidential candidates consider thirty-five to ninety seconds of coerced gagging and panic to be torture. Haven?t liberal politicians and judicial activists been ramming painful ideology down our throats for years? Maybe it is just a coincidence, but liberals and their news ...
SFChron: Obama is a ?Rare Kind of Attuned Being,? a ?Lightworker?
2008-06-07 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Well, I have come to the conclusion that Mark Morford of the San Francisco Chronicle just threw away the last tiny shred of credibility he might have had left by dreamily imagining that Barack Obama is so omniscient, so “ethereal” and so messiah-like that he isn’t a “normal” human being. Maybe Mark ... More About: Rare

2008-06-07 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston The New Republic has a rather interesting “book review” penned by James Kirchick on its website.

In a Democracy, You are FORCED by Law to Pay Dues to Union You Don?t Belong
2008-06-07 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston How can it be legal that an American is forced to pay dues to a union he doesn’t even want to belong to, and hasn’t joined? Believe it or not, some state laws force workers in some industries to do just that. It seems insane and unAmerican, but it is true nonetheless. Freedom, ... More About: Union , Forced , Democracy

Christianity is Not a Chinese Menu
