Barack Obama often seems caught between two worlds—between the “black value-system” world of his pastor Jeremiah Wright and the universalist “one-America” world of “change,” “hope,” and a few other captivating buzz words. It’s beginning to look like the Obama marriage might itself reflect the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde within the Obamaian soul. Or at the very least, Michelle simply can’t … [Read More]

How they intend to take the nomination away from Obama, without necessarily resorting to the “super-delegates”: I think Derb’s on to something. That doesn’t mean Obama won’t be on the ticket: they’ll just put him in his place.  [Read More]

The defeat of incumbent Rep Wayne Gilchrest at the hands of State Senator Andy Harris is a victory for the conservative movement. Harris defeated the liberal Republican Gilchrest in the heavily conservative 1st congressional district of Maryland by 11%.  Harris repeatedly touted his conservative credentials against the moderate to liberal voting record of Gilchrest focusing on the incumbent’s support for gay … [Read More]

Last week I talked about how Clinton-hating dumbed down the Right. Well, good old Bill is doing his best to further that process again, by making himself so easy to hate—and showing the sheer ugliness of the leftist establishment he represents.

He’s run for office in New Jersey in the past, once already for the Senate in … [Read More]

The independence of Kosovo as a second Islamic state in the heart of Europe is now a fact. Serbia and Russia will continue to contest it, as they should, but their efforts will come to nothing, as they must.

I knew that this administration makes the gang that couldn’t shoot straight look like criminal geniuses, but I never realized just how dumb the Bush-Cheney gang truly is.
