Poisoned wells

American Thinker "Entertainment in America today is as political as the entertainment of Russia in the worst days of Stalin. Law and Order must instruct us not only which individuals are killers, but which political class of people in America are killers. We cannot stop, relax, chat, and take a cool drink together as friends from a village well. We cannot sit and laugh together at innocent fun. Entertainment has become to television what objective science has become to global warming: convicted, condemned, and banished."

Did White House try to cover up [first lady's] connection to Walpin firing?

The Left, From Progressive to Oppressive

Michael Ledeen "As Tocqueville forecast, liberty gets tied down by an endless network of regulation, and we become enslaved without ever seeing it happen. That is because we get to vote, and console ourselves with the thought that our rulers serve US. Meanwhile, the Left has legislated (or, when that is impossible, simply ordered) the big State, and staffed it with their own. History is replete with paradoxes, none more anguishing than the perfection of the oppressive State by people claiming to act in the name of liberty." See Abraham Lincoln's prophecy above.

Moreover, Meenan stressed that historically Christianity ought to be credited for promoting the dignity of women. "It is the Church that invariably improved the lot of women in the lands that were converted and Christianized," he said."

Garrison Keillor: Our Bias Keeps Right-Wingers Alive on the Road

Newsbusters "Keillor draws on a lifetime of experience amongst the hardworking, God-fearing people of the Midwest and pays homage to the common code of civic necessities that arose from the left: Protect the social compact. Defend the powerless. Maintain government as a necessary force for good." His last show for me was when he shamelessly defended Bill Clinton as a Christian.
