…with a Romney/Hitler comparison. It’s all part of the new civility, I guess. But as is pointed out, Axelrod’s own house is a little too glassy to be tossing that particular stone.

The Left’s Long-Time War On Women
I have some thoughts on the hypocrisy, projection and cynicism over at PJMedia.
[Update a while later]
At The Village Voice, some things never change:
Backpage accounts for about 70 percent of prostitution advertising among five Web sites that carry such ads in the United States, earning more than $22 million annually from prostitution ads, according to AIM Group, a media research and consulting company. It is now the premier Web site for human trafficking in the United States, according to the National Association of Attorneys General. And it’s not a fly-by-night operation. Backpage is owned by Village Voice Media, which also owns the estimable Village Voice newspaper.
Attorneys general from 48 states have written a joint letter to Village Voice Media, pleading with it to get out of the flesh trade. An online petition at Change.org has gathered 94,000 signatures asking Village Voice Media to stop taking prostitution advertising. Instead, the company has used The Village Voice to mock its critics. Alissa thought about using her real name for this article but decided not to for fear that Village Voice would retaliate.
How could she think such a thing of those beneficent, woman-loving leftists?

More of the Left’s respect for women.

The Casual Bigotry
High-Speed Rail
Proponents in California, getting desperate, are having to revise their appealing lies.
It’s The Sociology, Stupid
So, apparently, I’m not skeptical about the need to wreck our economy to save the planet because many of the scientists promoting it have been shown to be frauds and hacks. No, it’s because I’m a threatened, “conservative white male.”
What would I do without professors of sociology to explain such things to me? I particularly love the “98% of scientists” line. Because, you know, science is all about majority opinion (and no, even if it was, I don’t buy the number).
Citizens United
Five ways it’s making politics better. I like the boot in the face of McCain.
Is Anything The Left Does Genuine?
Or is it one Potemkin village after another?
It goes all the way back to the Russian revolution, when they called themselves “Bolsheviks,” when they weren’t a majority at all. Nor are they “liberal,” or “progressive.”
I Do Not Have A Bracket
The only way I could have picked one is with a dartboard. #BasketballIsEvil #IRemainAnAmerican #HopeNoOneAsksMeIfEverOnThePanel
Red Meat
More junk food science (not junk-food science).
People who do these studies don’t seem to understand statistics, or know how to do studies.

Another nail in the socialist Doomsters’ coffin.
