We’ve posted a lot on the Minnesota Senate race over the last two days, and I thought it might be helpful to try to synthesize where we think things currently stand. The most fundamental point is this: The Democrats had hoped that there would […]

PaleoWatch: Some sense has come

PaleoWatch:
Some sense has come to anti-warrior Justin Raimondo. He’s not going to any more anti-war rallies run by Communists. He writes:

The movement has been hijacked by a bunch of neo-Stalinists, who, oddly enough, utilize their hopped-up “radical” rhetoric in the service of the most conventional Democratic party politics imaginable.

Okay, so I marched this […]

David Horowitz labels last weekend’s anti-war protesters “Communists.” Horowitz is more afraid of them than I am. He writes:

The fact that a movement of America-hating communists, who regard their own country as the enemy and who sympathize with America’s terrorist adversaries should be able to marshal 100, 000 activists is a cause for […]

The whole reason I cared about fall television happened last night. 24 began with another awful day in the life of (now) ex-government agent, Jack Bauer.
