Spengler of Asia Times takes a look at the theology of Rev. Wright. It is not pretty. During the black-power heyday of the late 1960s, after the murder of the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr, the mentors of Wright decided that blacks were the Chosen People. James Cone, the most prominent theologian in the “black…

Are these ladies typical examples of swooning female Obama voters? There is no way to tell.

Maybe. The City Edition has the history of the Republican backing of Obama. Evidence of a covert campaign to undermine the presidential primaries is rife, so it’s curious that the Democractic Party and even some within the G.O.P. have ignored the actual elephant in the room this year. That would be Karl Rove. Long accused…

I see a Republican landslide coming. McCain in the upper 50s. In addition maybe the Ds will rethink their love for identity politics. It has not served them well. I think McCains’s “we win they lose” speaks to the American spirit. What have the Ds got? Hope and Change. BTW a poll I just saw…

Obama is against racial insensitivity. “I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus,” Obama told ABC News, “but I would also say that there’s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up…

Beware using religion to create division. “Somehow, somewhere along the way, faith stopped being used to bring us together and started being used to drive us apart. It got hijacked,” the Democratic presidential candidate said in remarks prepared for delivery before the national meeting of the United Church of Christ. “Part of it’s because of…

This is a slightly modified version of the Hillary commercial. I’m putting this up for the children, because “we won’t surrender, they will”.

Today Obama repudiated the message of Rev. Wright and said that it was a message from the last generation. So explain to me why Obama sends his kids to Sunday school at Wright’s church? What about the next generation? Update: Here is an excerpt from the Obama speech saying that individuals must take full responsibility…

Sgt. Mom needs your help. She worked for a small business and her boss died Saturday of natural causes while she was in the next room. While she is tied up helping to straighten out the remains of the business she is out of a job. Please visit her and drop something in the tip…

Obama has said he didn’t hear firsthand any of “Wrong Way” Wright’s anti-American diatribes. It appears that that statement is not entirely correct. Contrary to Senator Barack Obama’s claim that he never heard his pastor Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr. preach hatred of America, Obama was in the pews last July 22 when the minister blamed…

Eric is asking if A should be held responsible for the statements of B? I think it depends on the degree of the association. You know kind of weighted. Or in more technical terms. Fuzzy logic. One thing we can say for sure (assuming humans are free actors and can choose acting against interest) is…

Like all criminal organizations the Democrat Party is falling apart over the division of the spoils.

It seems a lot of Democrat Party donors are not satisfied with the way the primaries are going and promise to withhold donations if their complaints are not resolved. Democrats in Michigan and Florida struggled Friday to resolve the impasse over their disputed January primaries, coming up with a plan to hold a June primary…

Instapundit put out a call for help and messages of support for a blogger whose wife was suffering from severe rheumatoid arthritis. So I did my usual and checked to see if marijuana would be of any help. And what do you know. (the numbers in the text refer to footnotes from here) Recent research…

Bloomberg News has an article up on why it will be difficult to support the nuclear renaissance currently planed. Here is the money quote: “I find it just amazing that so many people jumped on the bandwagon of this renaissance without ever looking at the industrial side of it,” Schneider said. It would take any…

It looks like we are finally going to have the long awaited discussion (when did it ever stop) of race in this country and Obama’s spiritual mentor is going to lead it. Not necessarily in the direction he intended. His mentor comes with a mind set which says that poverty is caused by some (white)…

After dithering about for a day or so Elliot Spitzer will soon be the former governor of New York. I think if Hillary had not been running as a Senator from NY with baggage, he might have held on. He got caught in a power squeeze. And dragging his wife on stage (see picture at…

Why do some “ladies” get paid thousands an hour for sex services? Supply and demand. It is not just about sex. It is also a social occasion. You might actually want to have a conversation with the lady between “jumps”. Now how many upper middle class well educated good looking ladies do you find who…

I saw the Chambers Brothers do this live at the Fillmore. If you were there with me and my friend Ed Herny, how did you like the magic cookies? Inspired by a discussion of the latest McCain commercial at Althouse. HT Instapundit
