Parting With PETA

The environmental movement is predominantly liberal, which means its thought process works backward. They start at the end with a wishful thought"€”"€œDon"€™t make this animal sad"€"€”then promptly moonwalk off a cliff. In San Francisco right now, PETA is fighting the awkwardly named ...

Denise Rich

Chasing Away the Rich

On Tuesday, the New York Post ran a headline that said, "€œDenise selling out USA."€ They claim that Denise Rich, millionaire ex-wife of oil tycoon Marc Rich (whom the Post describes as a "€œfugitive tax cheat"€) stands to gain millions by ceasing to be American. Why isn"€™t the Post ...

Obamacare: Mo”€™ Money, Mo”€™ Problems

Last week, the Supreme Court decided we all have to buy government broccoli for $1.7 trillion. This is the analogy fiscal conservatives are using to describe the Obamacare mandate that insists everyone pay their "€œfair share."€ John Derbyshire says that "€œhealthcare isn"€™t ...

Living with Savages

When libertarians, paleocons, neocons, and Republicans are confronted with a shrieking liberal they usually shoo it away. That's easy if you don"€™t live in New York City, Berkeley, LA, or Madison, but those of us mired here in the jungles of hysteria have to come up with other solutions. It ...

Entrepreneurial Graffiti

It's 2012 in New York City and grown men are still writing their nicknames on everything. They come up with names such as Revok and Daim and vandalize other people's property in a search for fame. They use etching cream to burn their name into a new restaurant's glass windows or they"€™ll spend ...

The Turd World

Every time Islam pokes its head out of its towel, I get nostalgic. Oh, women in Egypt were sexually assaulted for protesting sexual assault last week? Ahh, that takes me back to the halcyon days of the Wild West. Pardon? Did you say a Muslim man screamed, "€œGod is great!"€ before throwing his ...

Dial 911 for Mommy

After leaving dinner with my in-laws here in Brooklyn on Monday, I saw two men standing on the curb looking very righteous. One was Asian and the other was white, which in this area usually signifies they"€™re yuppie gentrifiers. Sitting on the sidewalk next to them was a Hispanic-looking ...

I”€™m With Stupid

While I was arguing about abortion recently with a pro-choice pal he said, "€œI just wish stupid people would stop having babies."€ This is a common sentiment among the smart community. Mike Judge's film Idiocracy extrapolates on the current trend of smart people having fewer kids than ...

The Reverend Al Sharpton

My 10 Favorite Hate-Crime Hoaxes

It was a tough week for racial witch hunters. In fact, it's been a tough quarter-century for them. Reality keeps knocking the liberal media off its high horse. When they picked up the Trayvon Martin case, hordes of TV dupes donned hoods and said they, too, were all young black kids being murdered ...

Fat, Broke and Single?

Like the French language, the liberal brain works in reverse. Where we say "€œthe red book,"€ the French say "€œle livre rouge."€ They start with a blank book and work backwards to fill it in with rouge. Liberals start with, "€œAll men are created equal"€ and walk backwards from ...
