The Problem With Gun Control
There are lots of them, actually, but right up there is the fact that the ignorami who promote it know nothing about guns. Or rather, they know lots about them that is wrong.
Dear Nazi
Man, Iowahawk has been on a roll, lately.
Crime Scene Investigation
Cue opening credit sequence
THE WHO
BRAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHH!Fast-paced action montage of CSI team shaking test tubes, spellchecking, studying tea bags under microscope, arresting cactus
THE WHO
We won’t get fooled again!CSI Headquarters. Behind a two-way mirror, Krugman and Matthews watch as the suspect is interrogated by detectives Olbermann and Maddow.
OLBERMANN
Out with it, scumbag! Who are you working with? We know you’re hiding something – or somebody! At long last, have you no shame, sir?! Have you no decency?DREAMBRAIN
Riddle me this, Batman. Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? That’s for me to know, but what am I? Ha hah! Heee! Ho hee! Pbblltth!Olbermann jumps up angrily from chair, Maddow restrains him.
MADDOW
Look, pal. Olbermann here, he goes just a little crazy kookoo sometimes. You should see him when he goes full Special Commentary. But you can trust me. I’m your friend. I’ll take care of you, see? Here, have a nice hot cup of tea…Dreambrain knocks the tea from the table

You’re trying to control my grammar! I have a constitutional right to saxophones!MATTHEWS (on intercom)

I don’t think it has as much potential as the other franchises.
Politically Incorrect
An article that the WaPo spiked because it describes the difference between Christianity and Islam. Hiding or ignoring the truth doesn’t make it go away.
Airbrushing History
In search of Lee Harvey Oswald. Hey, airbrushing history, often wholesale, is what leftists do. Stalin was famous for it.
In Search Of A Conservative Space Policy
With the quarter-century anniversary of the Challenger loss coming up next week, my thoughts on where we’ve been, and where we go from here. Even though I’m not really a conservative, I hope that the essay will make sense to them. Because unlike many, I at least speak the language, particularly when properly edited.
[Tuesday morning update]
I would note that there are two companion pieces to this, by Jeff Foust and Bob Zubrin.
Oh, Goody
Another lecture on “civility” from Peter Singer:
I think the NRA has blood on its hands, clearly.
Have these people all had their sense of irony excised at birth?
The Weight Of The Evidence
There is more evidence that the media influenced Eric Fuller than that Sarah Palin influenced the murderer.
Oh, but don’t you see the difference? The media doesn’t influence anyone — they simply reflect the mainstream, sensible views of peaceful leftists like Eric Fuller.
[Update a while later]
Where the media leads, no one follows.
