Echoes of Florida 2000
Since this happened in Montana, there isn’t much of a stink being made about the voter disenfranchising that has given Democrats control of the state senate. My favorite quote (from the lawyer who succeeded in having the votes invalidated): “Those … Continue reading

Ocean’s Twelve

Gee, whoda thunkit
And in other news, scientists who recently claimed (over and against the evidential weight of other studies on the subject) that the Pill not only doesn’t have any unhealthy side effects but rather decreases certain health risks are now saying, … Continue reading

Not-So-Intelligent by Design
Sometimes I feel like public schools just shouldn’t teach anything about the origins of the universe at all. It seems like evolution is to leftists what the flat earth was to 16th century papists. There is essentially zero physical evidence … Continue reading
