Iraqis get the hang of voting! Obama ignores.

January 31, 2009 By

You’re looking at Liberty, touching the future… (Essam al-Sudani/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images) “Democracy! Whiskey! Sexy!” Predictably – because this was effected by President Bush – the American press is barely mentioning it (last night I could find exactly one story about it, and that was by the BBC) but 15 million registered Iraqis went [...]

Longest. Linkaround. Evah.

Settle in for a long ‘un, kiddies. Start here (h/t Ann Althouse): Hey, according to the press, wars are challenging, serious and difficult to win. Funny how perceptions change when parties change in the White House, innit? Iraq suddenly looks different, too! Or…actually…maybe the same! President Bush has declared Washington DC a state of emergency [...]

Odds and Ends

December 11, 2008 By

Sadly, I’m having all sorts of network issues today and don’t know when or if I’ll lose connection, today, so here are some quick odds-n-ends: I love this video from Fr. Steve’s place. From a Catholic perspective it is silly, sweet, and – because it is so true to what we experience within our Catholic [...]

How did your voting go? – UPDATED

Polling, by William Hogarth Via Cat at Brits at their Best who writes: Polling (1754) by William Hogarth. Long lines then, too, even though not all men and no women could vote. Voting is the only reliable poll – unless voters have been pressured or votes have been stolen. In 1872, PM William Gladstone introduced [...]

Predictions for the next 24 hours…

November 3, 2008 By

I ain’t sly enough to actually make a prediction on the scale of Ed Morrissey’s; he calls for a close race with McCain/Palin squeaking out a win. And – while I agree with her prediction – I won’t take Kate’s rather easy road on this one; of course she is correct. Okay, here’s one prediction [...]

No Coal Power, No Questions in Obamaland – UPDATED

November 2, 2008 By

I don’t know why the McCain camp is not running constant ads – at least in PA and Virginia, highlighting Obama’s admission that – given the opportunity – he’ll bankrupt any new coal plants. The press, of course, is mum. As we see with the LA Times, which arrogantly will release neither tape nor transcript [...]

Our Unfree Press – -UPDATED

October 25, 2008 By

I have written often and often about the dangers a nation faces when its press is not free: It’s so tiring, you almost don’t want to bother saying it. But we have to keep pointing it out, this mad descent of the press, and not grow weary or complacent. The only way to keep the [...]
