Islam is simply an evil religion. Witness what occurred in Paris today.(now, yesterday, updated Friday). This in response to cartoons, for heaven's sake! Islam's holy book advocates forced conversion or murder for "apostates" and unbelievers. All over the world, Muslim radicals are murdering innocent civilians, taking hostages in coffee shops, and kidnapping school girls and selling …

Coarsening the Culture
It started with an essay in the (supposedly) high-minded publication for Wall Street Journal subscribers, WSJ Magazine. This comes out every other month in the print edition, and is a slick magazine designed to appeal to high-income readers. It is filled with ads for expensive clothing, watches, and jewelry, and features stories about people and …
Rats! I WANTED them to shut down the government!
During the tense negotiations in DC a while ago, where the D's and R's "negotiated" (scare quotes intended) a spending bill to keep the sainted government running for yet another fiscal year, I was rooting for the R's to simply say NO. I want them to shut down the government, since much of it …

Just some thoughts on blogging…what do readers like?
I've been doing this here blog for a few years now, and I have noticed some things. Like, I seem to get new followers whenever I do a post that's not relevant to the theme of my blog (conservatism). And a goodly number of other WordPress bloggers seem to blog about their personal lives, and …

How Congress Can Stop Obama’s Illegal Amnesty Move
Thanks to a fellow Ricochet member for this. I think it's perfect! I believe that I have a useful tactic for opposing Obama’s executive amnesty, and I am trying to make the suggestion to influential people. I think that either the Congressional leadership or influential Senators should just announce to the public the Congressional intention …

Thoughts on the Midterm Election…and After
Most of the votes are counted. Winners and losers have been declared. All day yesterday, and most of today, I've been projecting into the future, what yesterday's election results mean. Many Democrats went down to defeat yesterday, as did the majority of libertarians running as such (Michael Medved likes to call them "losertarians"). Stalwart …
Why does the WordPress “Get out the Vote” campaign make me nervous?
When I logged into my Dashboard on Calling-All-RushBabes this morning, I was presented with a huge logo where my stats usually appear. It said "Wordpress.com Voting Information Project". As anyone who visits this blog can see, the author is Conservative with a Capital C. My antennae sense something behind the GOTV campaign that communicates .....liberal... …

I’m Going to Wade Right in: Why do we Need BlogHer?
If you pay attention to the Daily Post on WordPress, you saw a couple of posts regarding BlogHer, the convention/meeting for women bloggers. Now, there's absolutely nothing wrong with a bunch of women who are bloggers getting together to trade tips, techniques, and stories, but I fail to see why there is a crying need …

Cutting Off Their Noses to Spite Their Faces (Liberals hurting the groups they claim to support)
Always and everywhere, Liberals and groups like Acorn, claim that they support and work for the little guys, the downtrodden, the discriminated-against, the oppressed, the have-nots of society. But when it comes right down to it, in the crunch, they favor themselves, and their white liberal cronies in big labor unions and politics, and their …
The Natural Order of Things
My hero, Rush Limbaugh, likes to point out that, through much of human history, the natural order of things in our world has been tyranny and misery. Since humans started to live in groups, the vast majority of people have led lives that were "nasty, brutish, and short". Until very recently, human life-expectancy has been …
