“If Only Greens Saw The Forest For The Trees”
For all the harm they propose to do in the First World with their Kyoto social engineering and wealth redistribution experiment, greeny types are already hard at work finding ways of forcing the Third World’s people to eke out impoverished existences from now until the end of […]

Fred Thompson has kind words for the readership at Pajamas Media. This on the heels of his video clip advice to Michael Moore. I’m really starting to like this guy - but a Hollywood actor? For President?

Further to Tom Cerber’s earlier post:
Demagoguing gas prices is one of the easiest rackets in politics. For many people high pump prices indicate that some sort of duplicity is going unpunished, because they are willfully ignorant of basic economic ideas like the profit motive. The idea that big evil oil companies should be “allowed” to […]

As we saw during the election campaign, the Liberal Party has no problem smearing Stephen Harper and the Conservatives as a northern extension of the Bush administration. For the duration of this minority government, look for the Liberals, the NDP and their big media sympathizers to continue pushing this meme at every possible opportunity, even […]

It seems strange that a nominally conservative poster like myself would choose to defend Svend Robinson in his inaugural post here at ThePolitic, but I couldn’t let the cover of the December 19 2005 edition of Macleans pass by without comment. For those of you who haven’t had the pleasure, the cover is a close-up […]
