It’s only a rumor, but if true, then Steven Spielberg is going over the PC deep end and into Stalinistic revisionist history. The rumor is that the reissue of E.T. will have all guns digitally removed. AICN says it well when they write, “All of a sudden, dramatic tension will not be what it once […]

To those that think black conservatives/libertarians are full of self-hatred because of their skin color, I offer this quote from economist Walter Williams:

The bottom line indisputable fact of business is that black Americans have made the greatest gains, over some of the highest hurdles, in a shorter span of time than any other racial group […]

Do parents who file wrongful-birth

Comments Off

Do parents who file wrongful-birth lawsuits know the meaning of unconditional love? How will they explain to their kids that since they weren’t perfect at birth, they wish they weren’t even born?
If abortion weren’t considered a legal and acceptable option, these lawsuits wouldn’t even exist. The Law of Unintended Consequences strikes again.
“Meet the ‘Wrongful-Birth‘ Bar.”

Vicki Cain performed in plays along side Sara Jane Olson, aka Kathleen Soliah. Soliah (Cain calls her her “comrade”) was arrested in 1999 for taking part in planting bombs in 1975. Cain almost has an orgasm when she realizes how close to terrorism she was.

To think that I was in a play with an […]

It’s official, if Russia can’t make a deal over missile defense, the U.S. will withdraw from the ABM treaty and build it anyway. National defense must trump any outdated treaty.

I’m right there with Kevin. The Nature Conservancy understands that private property, capitalism, and sensible land management protect the environment and the bottom line.
Forget calling The Nature Conservancy pragmatists. They understand human behavior and institutions much better than their socialist brethern.

Bill doesn’t go crazy over spam in his mailbox.

I used to get annoyed with spam. Now I just delete it, unread. Takes about 10 seconds each time I get my mail, and I get lots of spam. I’d rather spend that 10 seconds than have the feds in my e-mailbox.

Common sense trumps legislation.
