Who Were the Winners on Election Day?

It’s simple: the winners were normal Americans! I did something I rarely do: I watched CNN and MSNBC on Wednesday morning, to see the weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth among the credentialed media and their Usual Suspect panelists.

TGI Election Day!

I will admit to some serious election fatigue. It is virtually incomprehensible to me that more than 10% of the electorate could vote for the Communist from California, but then I think back to an early Political Science class at the University of Kentucky, back in the days of quill pens and inkwells, in which …

Journolism: They Want to “Speak Truth to Power,” But Only When It Doesn’t Interfere With Their Political Preferences

When I was a teenager in Mt Sterling, Kentucky, I delivered the morning Lexington Herald and the afternoon Lexington Leader, back in those quill pen and inkwell days when the Lexington newspapers were actually delivered throughout central and eastern Kentucky.

The Butthurt Babies On the Left

I’ve never read Stephen King’s books. While he’s obviously a talented writer, to judge from the enormous sales he’s earned, it’s not that I am somehow boycotting his books due to his well-known liberal opinions, but simply that his particular niche, horror novels, just doesn’t appeal to me.

Waging War Against Israel, From the Safety of Morningside Heights

That our oh-so-noble leftists will lie through their scummy teeth whenever they think it to their advantage is of no surprise to anyone who pays attention.
