THE CLINTONS EXIST BECAUSE OF THE MEDIA:We can't get rid of them as long as the media is in their pocket.
BITCOIN: At a cries point.
THINGS ARE NOT GETTING BETTER: The fear is Europe's problems with Muslims will become ours. We are after all Westerners and share civilizational mores, don't we?
WE HAVE BECOME WHAT WE FOUGHT AGAINST: Compelling argument, hard to refute. Where next?
AN ANTIDOTE TO LEFTIST DRIVEL: A site to keep in mind when hearing a lot of counterfactuals from the left.
PC IN EUROPE: Can the US be far behind? Is the US far behind?
ANSWER TO WHY COLOGNE HAPPENED: The rub: If you're welcoming and generous to them, they take over and you play by their rules. This IS a crises of major proportions. And here's a sequel story on the problem: ANOTHER VIEW OF THE DEMISE OF EUROPE:
EXPLAINING THE TRUMP CANDIDACY: This litany of complaints has it about right.
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME: Before like the French Revolution and the Bolshevik Revolution they all are sent to the guillotine or the gulag.
SICKENINGLY TRUE: Conservatives need to assert themselves much more aggressively. Cruz is shaping up to be the most conservative warrior among the candidates thus far. He actually believes in the Constitution.
WHY DON'T LIBS GET THIS? : Could it be they have an agenda??

GOOD CALL?: This may just be where it ends up. And not so bad either.
IT'S A CIVILIZATIONAL CONFLICT: Peaceful coexistance will be difficult as long as the radical strain of Islam exists. Even then it will be difficult..
LIBS NEVER GIVE UP: These clowns have been trying to rewrite history for over a decade.
NOT TOO SURE ABOUT ELECTRIC CARS: THIS is a bit unnerving!
TERMS OF EMPLOYMET AND MUSLIMS: If they keep this up no one will hire them. We had better get some adults into our government fast.
THE DONALD BY HISPANICS: In the end, they are right.
OBAMA'S LEGACY: The guy's hopeless.
SPEAKING THE TRUTH TO (BLACK) POWER: Now will anyone listen? Well they haven't for 50 years the PC crowd has gotten stronger and more in control. All white kids at these school's deserve a rebate for putting up with this nonsense. BTW, these campus eruptions seem to occur about the time of exams. Connection?
READING THE NYTIMES SERIOUSLY IS A SIGN OF DEMENTIA: Or worse.
LIBERALS SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE: None of this is corrected until the race hustlers are driven from the public square, period. And we then retune to the system that works effectively in Germany, Japan, China, in which lower IQ children are taught a skill that allows them to earn a living with pride. That would take care of most of the unrest on college campuses, plus eliminate the unnecessary feel good courses there, which would in turn make college affordable for all qualified students who can take advantage of a rigorous course curriculum.
BEWARE LIBERAL HISTORIANS: Schlessinger & co bring a yuuge bias to their accounts, plus a vivid imagination. This happens to be a very good example of why there should be full disclosure of political affiliation by historians, pundits and anyone else passing themselves off as experts in some field on knowledge.
NEW DEFINITION FOR CORRUPTION: In the real world these people would be in the dock and shamed into oblivion. Nowadays half the country admires them.
RAHM EMANUEL'S COMEUPPANCE: As he leaves public life maybe he can take that doctor brother, the architect of Obamacare, with him.
SOLVING THE FEDERAL DEBT/BUDGET/DEFICIT PROBLEM: Why isn't there the political will to curb these anti-capitalism examples? Could it be corruption? Who will take on Big Pharma?
HOW TO SOLVE THE TERRORIST PROBLEM: Like it or not there's no terrorism threat in Japan.
MODERN DAY CICERO: Sasso could be of help educating the country about the dangers of feckless leadership.
TRUMP IS NO WAY TO START A NEW YEAR: Accurate assessment of The Donald's appeal.

IF TRUE, WHATCH OUT BELOW: We are educating our downfall as a nation. Bring back schooling in the trades to stop producing useless idiots with BA degrees in gender studies, africana, etc.
IT WAS A BETTER SYSTEM: But alas, there were no votes to be had in this volunteerism.
SOUNDS LIKE A MUST READ: It's been a long, slippery slope since the Revolution.
TRUMP VS. HILARY: Wait until Trump brings up the name of Jeff Epstein. Could get ugly for her and Billy Bob.
PROOF POSITIVE: Oh yeah, but it creates all this inequality. Can't have that if you're a real socialist now, can you?
THE ADMINISTRATIVE STATE: It dates as far back as WWI and the Progressive movement he promoted. FDR put the movement on steroids, WWII solidified it and LBJ crowned it.
ONLY CLINTONS COULD GET AWAY WITH THIS: Anyone else would be behind bars. No speculating this is anything other than a tax free, influence peddling political organization.
ANALYZING CRIME STATS: Heather MacDonald is THE go to writer on crime in the US. By far. What's needed is more conservative city newspapers in the country to offset the claptrap we now get from just about all major newspapers in the country -- excepting WSJ and the Boston Herald.
MAYBE THE REAL STORY AT LAST: The misinformation and deflection by deems been going on far too long.
YOGHURT MADE IN A PRESSURE COOKER: Very simple and very easy. Cowbell bags are a big improvement over cheesecloth for straining.

ONE OF HAYWARD'S BEST COLUMNS: A very good explanation of a liberal's conundrum.
THIS FROM BRENDA JOHNSON: This is truly a remarkable clip and a wonderful Christmas present.
OLD FASHIONED VALUES: This all sounds like my father who was always grateful for what he, and we, had in life. Afraid the entitlement generation expects all they have and enjoy, and that it just appeared because it was supposed to appear. We'll see about all that soon enough.
WHAT'S AT STAKE: The longest lasting Democracy has been ours, can it survive???
A MAJOR RECONFIGURING? a Musolini or worse on the horizon?
A PARTIAL LIST OF O'S UNCONSTITUTIONAL ACTS: As stipulated, this is the tip of this iceberg,
MAYBE THERE'S A BIGGER PLAN: But, somehow I doubt it. Ryan may very well be another captive of the inside the beltway crowd. Kinda like the idea he's simply buying time with this business-as-usual budget, but then again I don't think he's ever been a constitution-driven conservative a la Cruz or Ron and Rand Paul. If so he's hidden that side of himself for a long time. It may be his speakership is just a continuation of the one party regime.
BOSS TWEED AND THE DEMOCRAT PARTY OF TODAY: The similarities are remarkable. Substitute public, city, state and federal unions for Boss Tweed's Tammany Hall and we have the perfect storm leading to uncontrollable debt to finance all the sweetheart deals. This will come to a similar end.

WHAT IS INFLATION?: It is policy and the printing of money. So says Mises.
MORE OF THE SAME:Business as usual with Ryan as Speaker. Disappointing.
FROM ALJAZEERA: Take a hard look at your Welfare State policies. An effort to smear US, but how many of then 45 countries listed have millions of illegal immigrants and a huge dependency underclass like the US?
CRUZ IS NO AUSTRIAN: Doesn't seem to understand the Fed's role all that much. But then few politicians do.
UNHAPPY WITH PAUL RYAN'S BUDGET CAPITULATION? Try this post by Glenn Reynolds back in 2006. Sometimes it hurts to be right. As Glenn identifies, Republicans insist on being Dems lite and they keep losing the WH because their base is disgusted and doesn't show up at the voting booth. Trump is hardly the answer. He's just a buffoon who represents the "disgust" vote of the base and that of some hard-assed dim bulbs. Cruz is the only Constitution-driven conservative in the bunch. Rubio is a programmed conservative who would bend the Constitution like dems always do only maybe only occasionally. But he may be more acceptable to the independents. Between Cruz and Rubio the choice seems to come down to either turning out an energized, motivated base on election day, or risking that approach in exchange for an appeal to independents. Reagan was a principled conservative who by dint of a winning personality managed to both energize the base and appeal to independents. Cruz surely does not have Reagan's personal appeal. Kinda a conundrum at this point.
AH, A REAL PARODY: Eoow. That hurts
THREE CHOICES FOR GOP: The choices are narrowed to three and the differences are stark.
OBSEQUIOUS MEDIA: Fallow & camp; co. are hopelessly in love.
CURRENT DAY DISCUSSION OF MISES, ET.AL.: Comments section entertaining.
GREAT VIDEO ON MEDIEVAL EUROPE: BBC series as only the Brits seem to produce.
YALE MAKES IT BACK INTO THE NEWS CYCLE: Of course the Law School, which has produced just about every Democrat Party hack except for those produced by HLS since Bill Clinton, manages to foul the air again through Bruce Ackerman who's an off-the-charts lefty.

WHEN DO YOU HEAR AN IVY LEAGUE STORY THAT ISN’T AN EMBARRASSMENT THESE DAYS? Sadness, shame and blame at Yale over First Amendment repeal video.
Members of the Yale University community on Thursday responded with a mix of embarrassment, sadness and literal disbelief to a viral video showing students there freely signing a petition that calls for the repeal of the First Amendment.
“It numbs the mind that dozens of Yale students could sign a petition to revoke the First Amendment,” freshman Grant Richardson wrote FoxNews.com in an email. “Besides the fact that the First Amendment lists the most fundamentally important rights we hold as Americans, it is rather embarrassing to think Yalies could not see the irony that they were petitioning away – their right to petition.”
Richardson, responding to a video by filmmaker and satirist Ami Horowitz that first aired on FoxNews.com Wednesday, said he hopes the actions of those shown in the video don’t reflect on him or many other students.
“It is mortifying to think that family, friends and future employers could equate such behaviors to Yale, and by extension, to me,” he said. “I can only hope that my fellow students were answering in jest.”
A member of the Yale Law School faculty also responded to the video, and wasn’t happy with what he saw.
“It’s a sad commentary on the present state of public opinion,” said Professor Bruce Ackerman. . . .
But Ackerman said he also felt the First Amendment debate wasn’t as important as more pressing issues.
“It does not remotely pose the same danger as the support of all Republican candidates, with the exception of Rand Paul, for President Obama’s unilateral war against ISIS in plain violation of the Constitution,” Ackerman said.
That part of the professor’s response didn’t sit well with Horowitz.
“This is exactly part of the problem. Why would Yale students, or university students anywhere in this country, feel a fidelity to our fundamental beliefs, when their professors try to shoehorn in anti-American sentiment at every opportunity?” he told FoxNews.com.
Yale Law School was a center of hardcore support for free expression once. But that was when leftists were the ones speaking. Now that leftists are the ones doing the persecuting, Yale Law isn’t nearly as strong.

A DOSE OF REALITY:
IS THIS WHERE WE ARE? I don't agree with the basic premise here but he's right about the division in the country.
IT'S BECOME A JOKE: You have to ask yourself when does it all stop.
OBAMA'S MANY TRANSGRESSIONS: They are many.
PINOT AND OREGON: THE Willamette Valley and the pinot grape.
CHRISTOPHER BUCKLEY'S LATEST: Could make an interesting read.
WELFARE PROGRAMS: Victims of bureaucratic malfeasance?
A TRULY REMARKABLE ARTIST: NYTimes should stick to reviews, get out of politics.
PRETTY FUNNY: Saucy, irreverent, some even hysterical.
THIS STORY WILL NEVER MAKE MSM: Because it doesn't fit the racial narrative.
WONDER WHERE THIS CASE LEADS: Political correctness kills.
POLITICAL SCIENCE, OXYMORON?: "Social Justice" needs defining.
PERFECT EXAMPLE OF PC: Thought control(manipulation by libs) on display, ugly as usual.
MSM AND CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATES: And to think we're financially supporting this kind of behavior.
CAIR IS A FRONT GROUP: And yet the MSM largely ignores it.

ANOTHER PROFESSOR TO READ: And he's a student of Hayek.
IT'S PLAUSIBLE: There has to be an answer and a reason for his at ions. Either he's incompetent or in over his head, or he's calculating and driven by a perverse ideology. I'm betting it's the former.
FARCICAL COLLEGE PROTESTS: They are making the case for segregation.
RUNAWAY PROSECUTORS: This case is a must watch.
OH MY: Remember the burning at the German University library? To protect their cushy jobs, most professors caved to the Nazi youth's demands for what? Ridding themselves of the establishment? Cleaning out the old for something, whatever, new? Making way for the egalitarianism of the university students? The problem is most professors and administrators are simply older students or examples of arrested development.
REDUCING SIZE OF GOVERNMENT: What phased-in libertarianism looks like.
DIVERSITY AMONG ACADEMICS: Clearly, not so much.
WORTH UNDERSTANDING: How real wealth is created.
IT'S ALL SO MADDENING: The liberals support this madness. We need a revolution.

A MODEST PROPOSAL FOR PRINCETON AND YALE
Richard Epstein reviews the sorry record of Woodrow Wilson over at Ricochet, but concludes correctly that it is a stupid idea to start stripping names off of university programs. But if the prissy Princetonians insist on renaming the Woodrow Wilson School for Public Affairs, here’s a modest suggestion: Rename it for Warren Harding!
Harding was the anti-Wilson in all of the ways the campus protesters could want. He pardoned most of the political dissenters Woodrow Wilson had jailed during World War I, especially the socialist firebrand Eugene Debs, whom Harding then invited to the White House, saying afterward that he rather liked Debs. He also proposed civil rights protection for blacks, in a speech in Birmingham, Alabama, that drew boos and jeers from the mostly Democratic audience. “I want to see the time come when black men will regard themselves as full participants in the benefits and duties of American citizens,” Harding said in the speech; “We cannot go on, as we have gone on for more than half a century, with one great section of our population . . . set off from real contribution to solving national issues, because of a division on race lines.” Harding also urged Congress “to wipe out the stain of barbaric lynching from the banners of a free and orderly, representative democracy,” but southern Democrats made sure this suggestion died swiftly in Congress.
His support for advancing the interests of black Americans went beyond mere words. He appointed blacks to senior positions in the Departments of Labor and Interior, lobbied his entire cabinet to more blacks, and over 100 blacks to lower ranked administration posts—a high number for the time, especially after Wilson had purged blacks from government jobs and bestowing permanent civil service status of their white replacements a few years before.
So how about it Princeton?
Second, if Yale can’t abide having one of its residential colleges named for John C. Calhoun, then the obvious thing to do is to rename it for Calvin Coolidge—one of the pre-eminent defenders of the document Calhoun disliked and repudiated—the Declaration of Independence. Of if this is too bold for Yale, then Amherst, currently in knots aver the fact that its namesake, Lord Jeffery Amherst, was politically incorrect, could rename itself for its most distinguished alumni.
Nah—I’m quite sure the only thing worse that having a college named for a racist-imperialist is having it named for a Republican. That’s would be too much diversity to tolerate.
