Comments Off

After reading this Thomas Sowell column nothing really needs to be said about the Lott affair. It doesn’t matter if Lott is a racist or a Southern good ole boy willing to pander to nefarious groups. He’s damaged goods and must go.

The actual choice facing Republicans is whether they want Trent Lott to […]

I know it’s early Tuesday, but John Huebscher of the Wisconsin Catholic Conference already has earned the TAM quote of the day. I’m sure I won’t find anything close to this for the rest of the day. Huebscher comments on death penalty legislation to be introduced next year:

I don’t think we respond to […]

In trying to cover his rear and protect his leadership position, Sen. Trent Lott pandered to an audience on Black Entertainment Television. He told the audience that he’s for affirmative action and has practiced it in his office. He also seems to think it’s wrong for Harvard to have one-third of its students […]

I’m interested in seeing how the movie version of The 25th Hour adds to the book. The novel felt like a series of character sketches rather than a story with a beginning, middle, and end. David Rooney writes that Spike Lee and David Benioff are taking advantage of our new, more dangerous world:

Attempting […]

John Hawkins at Right Wing News covers a scary scene at St. Cloud University where College Republicans were threatened physically by a professor and censored by a school administrator.
SCSUScholars, a group of non-hostile St. Cloud State faculty, has plenty of links and commentary. This is much more interesting than Trent Lott powerplays and conservative […]

Damn, now I won’t have AlGore to rip on during the Presidential elections. Anybody need a copy of Earth in the Balance? I won’t be needing mine anymore.
What most interested me about this story is AlGore saying this effectively ends his political career. “I make this decision in the full knowledge and […]

Lee Bockhorn in The Weekly Standard’s weekly e-mail:

Lott is scheduled to hold a press conference later this afternoon. It’s still unclear what he’s going to say, but let’s hope, for the good of the Republican party and the conservative movement, that he has the good sense to step aside as Senate majority leader. There simply […]

Michelle Malkin makes some brilliant points on Trent Lott’s foot-in-mouth disease. First, is her very funny label of Lott as “the Republican Party’s eternal Maalox moment.” Excuse me a moment while I roll on the floor laughing…
Ok, I’m better now. No, wait…
Alright, now I’m sure I’m better know. Anyway, Malkin makes […]

Ron Bailey on Michael Crichton’s Prey:

Crichton’s new novel further solidifies his position as our generation’s bush-league Mary Shelley, constantly hectoring readers about the dangers of humanity’s technological hubris. By all means enjoy the book and the movie. But please keep in mind that the beasties in Prey are more Stephen King horror than Jules Verne […]
