Please remember that Churchill stopped being Chancellor of the Exchequer in 1929 (months before the wall street crash) and was out in the wilderness for ten years. posted 07/18/2008 at 17:05:33

Sorry, the commies have long ago been discredited, and I don't think that the American people are going to want to replace Obama with Lyndon LaRouche anytime soon. posted 07/18/2008 at 17:05:19

McCain Cancels Event Over Fundraiser's Rape Remarks

clayton Williams is the reason why we're in the mess we're in. He made his dumb and offensive remark, which meant he lost the election to Ann Richards, wo turned out to be a bit corrupt, and thus she lost to George W. Bush, who used the position to get elected President with a half million vote popular deficit.

Hence, it's all the fault of Clayton Williams. posted 06/14/2008 at 16:47:28

A History Lesson For Tucker Carlson

It all depends on how you define "modern" Bush had six years as governor of Texas, Eisonhower was a general and wasn't ever elected to anything. When does "modern" start? The presidency was very different under Truman than it was under Nixon or Hoover.

There are grandparents who were mere children when Nixon was president. "modern" might mean since the McGovern commission of 1970, or since Reagan, or since the Bushes started in power,.. or maybe it goes back to FDR? posted 06/12/2008 at 09:32:29

Obama's VP List: MSNBC Gathers Names

Ah yes "Israel isn't a democracy because the Jews aren't oppressed" always a good way to start an argument. I especially like #6, which is kind of true despite what the poster thinks.

As to #8: CANADA spies on us. So does Mexico and every other country that can afford it.

#9 is in fact true. posted 06/11/2008 at 11:50:35

Not in Jordan, where Palestinins constitute 80% of the population, and most of these aren't doing all that bad. As to the so-called refugee camps, they're not really camps at all, but towns and cities where most of the people are living on a UN dole.

Calling Palestinians "refugees" after anywhere between 60 and 41 years is an insult to the millions of Pied Niors and their children, the Silesian Germans and Anatolian Greeks, not to mention Alexandrian Greeks and many others who are also refugees or decendents of refugees....and the Israeli JEWS, all of whom are refugees or decendants of refugees. posted 06/11/2008 at 11:35:32

The wounding of Wallace, as horrible as it was, heas helpful to the left because Wallace was on the way to getting the '72 nomination.

Robert F. Kennedy Assassination: 40 Years Later

It wasn't the fictional "'63 Junta" it was Arab terrorism. RFK was killed because he was pro-Israel. posted 06/05/2008 at 21:40:10

Jihadist terrorism came to America that day. Sirhan Sirhan murdered Bobby Kennedy because he wasn't antisemitic. There have been those over the years trying to exonerate the sonofabitch, but a fact is a fact.

Bobby Kennedy was shot because he supported Israel and only that reason. It wasn't America's fault, it was Palestine's. posted 06/05/2008 at 21:26:17

Catholic-Bashing

no, it's not bigotry for former RC's to criticize the church that failed them. But Leo and Donahue think that anyone who's been baptized must agree to be under the thumb of the clergy or be considered racist.

The Catholic Heirarchy is part of the government in a number of nations. IS the government in one, has been, prior to 1962, one of the main forces for bad in the world. They even had their own concentration camps as late as 1871, and used slaves as late as the 1970s [that's NINETEEN, folks], and Leo and the Catholic League DEFENDED the slavery when it was exposed earlier in the decade. posted 03/22/2008 at 20:47:04

John Leo has spent years rightfully attacking political correctness, which means pretty much everything he is supporting in the blog. "Anti-Catholicism" is the bigotry that says "All Catholics are evil", which clearly isn't true. However, to attack Catholic theology in a principled way, or to sell chocolate Jesuses, or make art using religious symbols in a "unauthorized way" is NOT that kind of anti-catholicism.

Leo, and the morons at the so-called "Catholic League" are in fact NOT fighting people who hate Catholics, they are fighting Lapsed Catholics and other Christians who don't agree with everything the Catechism teaches, or worse, don't WORSHIP the Pope.

If he can prove scientifically that a schitzophrenic god with multiple personality disorder sent part of itself to earth in order to pay for the sins of humanity (to WHO, might this payment in blood go?) I might be see that Mr. Leo has a point. posted 03/22/2008 at 20:37:54
