Citizens Lynching Citizens
In light of the Brussels attack and Obama's unbelievably lame 51 second response thereto, in which he once again refused properly to name the source of the carnage, the following re-posting of an entry from over a year ago is justified. …………………………….. Imagine a history teacher who tells his students that in the American South, as…

The Left Might Get Trump Nominated
So argues Dennis Prager. For Trump alone among the Republican candidates is willing to stand up to the thuggishness of the Left. The other candidates including Ted Cruz are blaming Trump and his rhetoric. The latter is admittedly less than presidential and Trump is well-advised to tone it down. But which is worse, some harsh…

Fascists of the Left Against Free Speech
It is standard operating procedure for leftists to shout down their opponents, throw pies in their faces, and otherwise disrupt their events. Thuggery is a leftist trademark. But when there is the least bit of push-back, these contemptible cry bullies shout 'fascism'! The double standard once again. Free speech for me, but not for…

Should a Tunnel be Named After Someone who Killed Himself?
No surprise that this is in the Bay Area. Another indication of the Decline of the West? Another sign of the mental and moral and spiritual sickness of liberals? You decide. Commentary here.

Leftists and Underdogs
Here is an extreme example of the leftist's reflexive love of underdogs qua underdogs. A Muslim terrorist stabs an Israeli in the neck. The Israeli pulls the knife out of his neck and stabs the terrorist to death with it. Now anyone who is morally sane will cheer the Israeli for his effective and morally…

PC Claims Another Victim
One good thing about leftists is that they eat their own. So here is a leftist professor who is attempting to confess her 'white privilege.' She mentions the word 'nigger.' She is not using it any more than I just used it: she is not applying it to anyone. She is talking about the word. …

The Left’s Betrayal of America
David Horowitz is a national treasure. The following is so important and so right that I reproduce the whole of it here. From National Review. Is the Left Even on America’s Side Anymore? The progressives have undermined American security and damaged race relations. By David Horowitz — January 8, 2016 The Bolshevik leader…

Political Correctness Can Get You Raped
Here. Which is more important, to protect women from rape or to be a p.c.-whipped multi-culti?

Chris Hedges
I saw Chris Hedges on C-SPAN the other night. Four years ago I heard him in the same venue and was much impressed by what he had to say about pornography. Oxymoronic as it may sound, I'd say Hedges is a decent leftist. Decent but delusional, as witness this opening paragraph of The Creeping Villainy…

Hic Rhodus, Hic Salta
"Here is Rhodes, jump here" (through the hoops of political correctness). A graduate of Oriel College, Oxford University, sent me this statement concerning the Rhodes Must Fall petition. A memorial to Cecil Rhodes, that is. Can you say Der Untergang des Abendlandes? "Here is Rhodes, jump here." From Aesop's Fables #209, "The Boastful Athlete." A…

The Latest Low in Liberal-Left Lunacy
Via Breitbart: Students at Lebanon Valley College (LVC) in Pennsylvania are demanding Lynch Memorial Hall on campus be renamed, due to the potential traces of racism associated with the word “lynch.” [. . .] Michael Schroeder, an associate professor of history, said about LVC, “We’re not an island but sometimes it feels like an island…

Thinking Clearly About Terrorist and Non-Terrorist Gun-Related Deaths
Robert Paul Wolff writes, Fourteen people were murdered in San Bernardino, and almost two dozen were injured, several critically. That is perfectly awful. Since September 11, 2001, I believe almost three score people have been killed in the United States in similar terrorist attacks, or so one television commentator asserted. The number sounds about right.…

Profiling, Prejudice, and Discrimination
Everybody profiles. Liberals are no exception. Liberals reveal their prejudices by where they live, shop, send their kids to school, and with whom they associate. The word 'prejudice' needs analysis. It could refer to blind prejudice: unreasoning, reflexive (as opposed to reflective) aversion to what is other just because it is other, or an unreasoning pro-attitude…

Backlash and ‘Frontlash’
Some lefty scribblers, effete and epicene, have their knickers in a knot worrying about the nativist and xenophobic 'backlash' post-Paris and post-San Bernardino. Even worse, however, is Attorney General Loretta Lynch's disgracing of herself along these lines: Lynch addressed the Muslim Advocate’s tenth-anniversary dinner and declared that she is concerned about an “incredibly disturbing rise…

Recognizing Microagressions and the Messages They Send
A remarkable document. Tell me what you think. To understand the Left you must understand that central to their worldview is the hermeneutics of suspicion which is essentially a diluted amalgam of themes from Marx, Nietzsche, and Freud. Thus nothing has the plain meaning that it has; every meaning must be deconstructed so as to…
