8.18.2001 9:27 PM Any compensation will just show weakness to the Chinese communists. "U.S. Payment To China Unjustified" Sean Hackbarth | 9:11 PM Bill St. Clair: gun lover and U.N. hater. Sean Hackbarth | 9:09 PM Here's a disturbing quote from a British embryologist when asked about doing research on human cloning:
Yeah, after I come back from the pub, I love poking and prodding at unborn children just for kicks. For this scientist, human life isn't sacred, it's just something to play with after quaffing a couple pints. "Lawyer in Fresh Fight to Clone Dead Baby Son" [via Drudge] Sean Hackbarth | 8.17.2001 1:46 PM Mount Holyoke College defends the integrity of the university while also holding Pulitzer Prize-winner Joseph Ellis accountable for his lies about military service. "Pulitzer Prize-Winning Historian Professor Suspended for Lying about Vietnam Combat" [via Drudge] Sean Hackbarth | 1:17 PM In Eau Claire, WI, the price for killing a newborn baby is 100 hours of community service. Judge Eric Wahl ordered that punishment for a 16-year old girl and also suggested that she quit smoking and not drink a lot of soda. The prosecutor isn't off the hook either. District Attorney Rick White was happy with the judge's decision because, "[t]he primary goal was not to punish this young lady, it was to hold her accountable for what happened." Abortion, assisted suicide, embryonic stem-cell research, and infanticide are all made out of the same cloth. For almost a generation, we have witnessed the declining respect for human life. Too many accept senseless human killing while actually encouraging it when it becomes convenient. Many people get more outraged when a dog is killed than when a child in allowed to freeze to death. "Girl Won't Face Detention in Baby's Death" Sean Hackbarth | 8.16.2001 11:45 PM The NAACP is offensive--not because the term "colored people" is in their name--because it abuses historical black oppression to prey upon white guilt. With this, they call for more statist policies that do more harm than good. Shelby Steele and John McWhorter have written that racism is not the primary barrier to black achievment. Embracing middle class values (respect for law, private property ownership, investment in education) have already lifted many blacks from poverty. The NAACP should praise this instead of attacking President Bush and complaining about the lack of diversity in the television industry. Mallard Fillmore Sean Hackbarth | 11:32 PM With the help of the national party, Bret Schundler may surprise everyone by winning the New Jersey governor's election. "Ruling May Aid Schundler Campaign" Sean Hackbarth | 11:16 PM blogBuddy is a small, fast program that sits on your personal computer. After using it for just a few posts, I'm hooked. blogBuddy [via Evhead] Sean Hackbarth | 11:12 PM I didn't get a chance to grab a corn dog at the State Fair, but I'm sure I can find something to satisfy my canine craving in one of these shops. "Frankly Tasty" Sean Hackbarth | 8.15.2001 9:30 PM Dr. Bjorn Lomborg will be driven from respectiblity in Left-wing circles. Why? Because he's an environmentalist who doesn't buy the world-is-doomed scare tactics of the modern Green movement. "Bjorn Lomborg: A Chipper Environmentalist" Sean Hackbarth | 9:15 PM KRISPY KREME IS COMING! KRISPY KREME IS COMING! "West Allis, Wisconsin! a href="http://www.krispykreme.com/opening1_WI.htm">Krispy Kreme is Bringing the HOT Light!" Sean Hackbarth | 5:38 PM Tibor Machan tells us the truth behind the Green movement:
That's why environmentalists fight against farmers in the West in the name of protecting endangered species while keeping silent when a shark was killed to save a boy's arm. "Shark v. Boy’s Arm" Sean Hackbarth | 5:17 PM Why is the media making a big deal over President Bush's month-long "working" vacation in Crawford, TX? Because many reporters call it his "home to the wasteland." Bush knows the media trapped in the town of 705 don't want to be there when he told them, "I know a lot of you wish you were in the East Coast, lounging on the beaches, sucking in the salt air. But when you're from Texas - and love Texas - this is where you come home." "No Grocery, $5 Haircuts - and the Bush Ranch" Sean Hackbarth | 4:25 PM A forgetable band calls it quits. No loss to the music world. "Danish Aqua Pop Group to Disband -- Reports" Sean Hackbarth | 8.14.2001 11:52 PM Rush will do it if the price is right, and it might send Larry King to an early grave. "CNN in Discussions with Rush Limbaugh" Sean Hackbarth | 10:49 PM In the early 80s, I remember countless Saturday afternoons watching Earl Anthony school everyone in the PBA. I will never forget the man who looked like Ward Cleaver with glasses. "Anthony Considered Winningest PBA Bowler" Sean Hackbarth | 8.13.2001 12:53 PM In a New York Times op-ed, President Bush reiterates his reasons for limited federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. "Stem Cell Science and the Preservation of Life" Sean Hackbarth | 8.12.2001 12:23 AM This is not news, yet I'm blogging it. "Gore Still Hasn't Shaved His Beard" Sean Hackbarth | |
