It looks as though President Obama is on the record–on eight different occasions–proclaiming that all health care negotiations would be televised on C-SPAN. This was part of his promise to make government more “transparent” and we all know how that’s turned out.

The Dirty Dozen Meets the Reservoir Dogs: A Review of Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds
What a film! Inglourious Basterds has it all: superb acting, a compelling storyline, great scenery, intriguing counterfactual history, outstanding music and just enough subtitles to convey a high degree of authenticity. The film definitely has a nice Spaghetti Western feel to it. A more apt description might be: The Dirty Dozen meets the Reservoir Dogs meets The [...]

“Marines in Berkeley” with Rob Riggle
While a bit dated, this video is both hilarious and tragic–hilarious because it exposes the absolute lunacy of the fringe left. It is tragic because it exposes their unbridled antipathy toward the military. (hat tip: WB)

Conservative Renaissance Man: An Interview with Charles Krauthammer
Charles Krauthammer is a modern-day renaissance man who has worn many hats and enjoyed tremendous success first as a psychiatrist, then journalist, international relations theorist, and now a commentator. With the passing of William F. Buckley and Samuel Huntington last year, Krauthammer is arguably the finest conservative thinker around (Newt Gingrich certainly deserves honorable mention). Cable news [...]

Rush Limbaugh, the St. Louis Rams, and the NFL
What is there to say? Rush Limbaugh got sandbagged by both the mainstream media and his business partners. Whether you’re a liberal or a conservative, you should care about the St. Louis Rams debacle and what happened to Rush. Rush was discriminated against just because he’s an outspoken conservative.

First, she trashed Fox News and now we find out that Mao Tse Tung is one of her favorite political philosophers.

The Harvard “Scholar,” the Cambridge Police, and Race Baiting
I guess Barack Obama is human after all. He went into Wednesday evening’s press conference with the goal of convincing the American public that a massive government overhaul of the U.S. health care system is a good idea. He failed.
Instead, he stepped on a political land mine when he weighed in on [...]

Bloodletting
Congratulations to President-elect Obama. He won a decisive victory on Tuesday. It is my sincere hope that he makes good on his campaign promises of bipartisanship and governs from the center. I hope that he does not embrace the liberal policy proposals of Nancy Pelosi and Co., such as the Fairness Doctrine or the Freedom [...]
