This is my last post about Japan, and it contains a few random thoughts tied to my visit to Kyoto and Osaka. And when I say random, I do mean random…. Japan is exquisite — and its people compulsive. There are a few obvious things to say about Japan. It [Read More]
Because Theirs is That Sense of Entitlement. Democrats passed Jim Crow laws and enacted the One Drop Rule to classify who is Black. During the beginning of the 20th century, several states passed Racial Integrity Laws around concerns for eugenics and racism. How ironic is it that a century later, [Read More]
Brett Kavanaugh and Kanye West have combined to make sure that the 2018 midterm election will not be a normal one. . . . what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born? — William Butler Yeats, The Second Coming, 1919 Many things will [Read More]
On Quora an anonymous useful idiot asked, “Why do otherwise intelligent conservatives believe that liberals and progressives yearn to have a country like Venezuela?” While researching the answer I came across some very good articles, most referenced in the answer below, but one in particular is worth mentioning. Dan Hannon, [Read More]
Vassar Bushmills Since 2006 I’d watched Republicans, including many conservatives, fed up with Party choices going back to Bob Dole in ‘96, hand our government over to first the Congressional Democrats, then, even after the Democrat’s dark side had revealed itself, still refuse to stop the bleeding. I thought perhaps that Obama [Read More]
As if opportunist and back stabber, Michael Cohen, could sink no lower, Axios is now reporting that the former attorney to President Donald J. Trump, before he won the 2016 presidential election in order to save himself (my thoughts) has switched his party affiliation from Republican to Democrat. Michael Cohen [Read More]
Vassar Bushmills Since “She said-He said” is all the political rage right now, I have a couple of cases that are almost on point, both of which point out the reason why our judicial system of evidence is so important. At one time I had planned on turning both of [Read More]
A few months back, President Donald J. Trump was trying to negotiate with Senators Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris regarding his potential judiciary nominees to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The hags did not approve of the President’s selection. It is safe to assume that the President has chalked [Read More]
Permit me, if you will, a brief aside before I begin my Gosnell movie review. As you will soon evidence for yourselves, I do not write movie reviews for living. In fact, I haven’t written one in a little over a year. I just haven’t been that excited about the [Read More]
Once, there was a man who had to deal with rats when he had a major infestation in his home. The rats’ normal environment became unable to support them all, and they began coming down from the hills looking for new digs… and decided they liked the man’s house. They [Read More]
Here it is — a round-up about American life in the wake of the Kavanaugh hearings, with everything from politics to plumbing thrown in. This will be my last big post before my week-long hiatus (during which, as I said, I’m sure something big will happen). Fear not, though, because [Read More]
Every week, the WoW! community and our invited guests weigh in at the Forum, short takes on a major issue of the day, the culture, or daily living. This week’s question: What Are Your Feelings On The Kavanaugh Hearings? Don Surber:The Kavanaugh Debacle was the best thing to happen to [Read More]
Republicans showed gumption and got Kavanaugh confirmed — and the Democrats and their Leftist allies went absolutely crazy, in ways both amusing and scary. Sorry for the blog silence, although one of the things that took my away from blogging is nice: I’ve been getting calls and emails from people [Read More]
Last evening President Donald J. Trump held a MAGA Rally at the Kansas Expocentre in Topeka, Kansas on behalf of GOP Congressman Kevin Yoder who is running against Democratic opponent, Sharice Davids. A mere few hours after the well-deserved and hard-fought victory, the President stated, “This is a truly historic night. I stand before you [Read More]
Over the past few weeks of the Kavanaugh debacle I expected the Republicans to cave. Why? Because when it comes right down to it, the party leadership isn’t all that smart. When the Tea Party rose, they neutered it. The fight to overturn Obamacare? They bravely fled the field of [Read More]
The Kavanaugh hearings have served a useful purpose in that they revealed the Leftists’ vicious and unbridled lust for power to all Normal Americans. I’m delighted that it looks as if the Republicans, with help from Manchin and no help from Murkowski, will be able to drag Kavanaugh across the [Read More]
Just moments ago, Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) during a 45 minute speech on the floor of the U. S. Senate announced her intention to vote “Yes” for Judge Brett Kavanaugh. One’s opinion of Susan Collins’ speech would, of course, depends on whether one is pro or anti Brett Kavanaugh. Starting with [Read More]
A reader sent me a smart take on the Kavanaugh hearings when it comes to thinking vs. feeling and the push to measure past behavior by today’s standards. I wish I could take credit for the following, which a reader sent me, because it’s so darn smart. I can, however, [Read More]
Vassar Bushmills When his turn came to talk, had Brett Kavanaugh walked out to his desk, sat his notes down, then walked around the table and walked up to Dick Durbin and popped him square on the nose, he couldn’t have made his case more masterful. He took off the gloves, [Read More]
