2009 Predictions: The More Things “Change”…
January 1, 2009 – 10:58 am
Here are my 2009 predictions posted at The Sniper’s Tower over at Taki’s Magazine:
1) After writing multiple columns that convince the Obama administration the U.S. must invade Iran to rid them of any nuclear capabilities, we will not only find no nukes–but New York Times‘s Bill Kristol will receive yet another promotion.
2) After writing the The [...]
Mark Sanford and the Ron Paul Factor in 2012
December 31, 2008 – 2:21 pm
This is a repost from the Lewrockwell.com blog. Writes Lew Rockwell:
“(The Nation’s) Katrina vanden Heuvel thinks that to be successful, a Republican presidential candidate in 2012 will have to be a Ron Paul libertarian (skip to 3:00):”

I have never liked New Year’s Eve. Americans might have voted for “change” recently, but I’ve rarely desired it, always finding the same-old, same-old to be as bright or brighter than any new horizons. As a child on New Year’s Eve, when everyone was looking toward a better new year, [...]

When president-elect Barack Obama chose evangelical leader Rick Warren to lead a prayer at his inauguration the cultural Left threw the predictable fits. Said Kathryn Kolbert, president of People for the American Way, “this decision further elevates someone who has in recent weeks actively promoted legalized discrimination and denigrated the [...]
SA Column – Separating Church From Hate
December 23, 2008 – 9:10 pm
Recently a federal judge decided that South Carolina’s plans to issue a license plate featuring a cross and the words “I Believe” amounted to government sponsorship of religion. If consistent, this judge will now spend her Christmas not at home with her family, but challenging the legality of a federal holiday that gives government preference [...]
The Left Conservative’s Dylan Hales on the Late Paul Weyrich
December 22, 2008 – 9:10 am
Couldn’t have said it better myself. Writes Dylan Hales:
“Paul Weyrich died a few days ago, the second giant of American Conservatism to perish this year. Like Bill Buckley before him, Weyrich managed to maintain something of a balancing act between the principled conservatism of the heart and the “pragmatic” conservatism of the political mind. Unlike [...]

When an Iraqi journalist threw his shoes at President George W. Bush during a press conference in Baghdad recently, pundits everywhere had fun replaying the footage, commenting on the president’s quick reflexes and some even noted that such an act of defiance was only possible due to the removal [...]
Pat Buchanan on Obama’s War
December 19, 2008 – 1:24 pm
Writes Pat Buchanan at Taki’s Magazine:
“With 34,000 U.S. soldiers already in country, half under NATO command, the 20,000 will increase U.S. forces there to 54,000, a 60 percent ratcheting up. Shades of LBJ, 1964-65. Afghanistan is going to be Obama’s War. And upon its outcome will hang the fate of his presidency. Has he thought [...]
Wrestling Legend and NYT’s Best Selling Author Mick Foley Reviews “The Wrestler”
December 19, 2008 – 7:20 am
I have been a huge pro wrestling fan since I was a child and can’t wait to see this movie. Writes former WWE legend and current TNA Wrestling star Mick Foley at Slate.com:
“And so I attended a recent New York screening with a dab of cynicism. Sure, I’d heard the film had been a hit at [...]
