“He’s a terrorist. Rush Limbaugh is a terrorist. You heard it here, ladies and gentlemen.†Joy Behar on The View, October 22, 2008 I thought it would be appropriate to include an example of the ridiculous (hence the title of this column) prior to eviscerating my fellow New Yorker, given the transcendent level of stupidity evidenced... »

No Shame, No Blame
If my checking account goes into overdraft to a dramatic degree, obviously my bank would hear nothing of coming to the rescue with funds not only to ameliorate the overdraft, but to get me on my feet again. The same would apply if half of the depositors in the branch I use did... »
Black White Trash
Two weeks ago, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation published a piece by Toronto writer Heather Mallick that sprayed far Left elitism like blood from a cleanly-severed carotid artery. In it, she described supporters of Republican vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin as “white trash†and ascribed more insulting terminology to the Alaska governor and her family. Which presumably... »
Obama and the Trinity United murders
Members of Chicago’s Trinity United Church (the house of worship attended by Democrat presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama for 20 years) already had their Christmas trees up when members of the Chicago press circulated through the city, interviewing many of them as they mourned Donald Young, their 47-year-old choir master who has been found... »
Already a Hero
“This pioneering Alaskan may just be the one to lead her party out of the wilderness.†– Investor’s Business Daily on Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, September 4, 2008 And indeed she might be. Around 40 million folks tuned in to the festivities at the Republican National Convention in St. Paul on Wednesday, September 3,... »
Pimp this, Senator Obama
One of the fundamental (though perhaps not prioritized) questions people ask pertaining to presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama is that of what his ideas are for improving the lot of black Americans. Whether or not he feels a special affinity for this group (he identifies as black, after all, and until recently belonged to... »
Pond Scum for Obama
In my local syndicated newspaper the other day, there was an article featuring a forum hosted by a nearby university for black high school seniors in the region. The annual event was calculated to inform and inspire the students regarding their options in the area of colleges and universities. It will become apparent how... »
So Stuck on Stupid
Whether one attributes the success of Democrat presidential nominee Barack Obama to savvy maneuvering on the part of the Democratic National Committee and the Obama campaign, Republican ineptitude, a biased press or the influence of shadow governments, in the end the November election’s outcome is going to come down to Americans’ capacity – or... »
Where No Enemy Has Gone Before
There’s an axiom in Recovery (as in from addiction) circles which asserts that addictions are but symptoms of deeper emotional or psychological problems. Leaving aside the debate as to whether this holds water, I submit that the tremendous success of Democrat presidential nominee Barack Obama is but a symptom of the broader disease: The... »
Psycho Pastor or Killer Clown?
It’s official: The “pastor issue†as regards the campaign of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is old hat. Why? Because it’s not about radical pastors anyway, and never was; it’s an issue of whether or not it is plausible that Obama sat in a church which teaches the racist, Marxist, anti-American doctrine of Black... »
Obama and the Religion of Race War
“Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love. Either God is for black people in their fight for liberation and against the white oppressors, or he is not.†- Black Theology and Black Power, Dr. James Cone, 1969 Barack Obama must be called to renounce Black Liberation Theology. Can an American... »
Right to Religious Expression Depends on Color
As if the Reverend Wright issue and double standard of Democrat presidential just-about nominee Senator Barack Obama’s seeming imperviousness as far as the press and likely voters go weren’t odious enough, the candidate is now employing campaign materials focusing on his alleged Christian faith. Fliers on the topic of Obama’s alleged conversion experience began... »
Black Liberation Theology: The Enemy Within
Sincere apologies from this columnist to those sufficiently sick of the Barack Obama/Rev. Jeremiah Wright story that they are a hair’s breadth from an uncontrollable fit of projectile vomiting. On March 1, 2007, when Rev. Wright blasted me, Sean Hannity and Alan Colmes for being too ignorant to even presume to speak on theology... »
Always Something There to Remind Me
Lest we forget, there are good reasons why some have been committed to training quartz halogen floodlamps on every bit of spume found beneath the rock that is Barack Obama’s campaign for the Democratic nomination, why they shall continue to do so, and why they will focus (or re-focus) attention on whomever comes out... »
Symbiosis: Rev. Wright and the Subversive Media
There’s not much point left to arguing whether the provocative vitriol purveyed by Trinity United Church’s former pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright in his sermons was warranted, understandable, excusable or in any way accurate. This columnist and an increasing number of Americans believe Wright’s tirades were wholly inexcusable and thus by nature cannot be explained... »
Cults of Personalities
I had to jump on this one. As a teenager, I attended summer camp with actor Jason Beghe, and we were members of a loosely-knit camp clique for a time thereafter. I actually made some lifelong friends through that experience, but as moviegoers know, Jason headed for Hollywood and made his mark there. I... »
Jimmy Carter: Citizen Traitor
The political left in America is like a deranged passenger on a jetliner who repeatedly attempts to storm the flight deck and crash the plane, but who the crew and other travelers are limited in their ability to restrain due to obscure regulations (whose full implications were unforeseen when they were implemented) which give... »
Put a Shine on This, Madam Speaker
Our inimical lich of a House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was at it again last week, subtly sabotaging our military’s efforts in Iraq, potentially demoralizing and compromising our troops in a transparent election year political ploy. On April 4, Pelosi admonished General David Petraeus not to “put a shine†on developments in Iraq when he... »
What a Tangled Web We Weave
Last Friday, on the ABC talk show “The View†– about as softball a venue as one can get – presidential hopeful Barack Obama indicated that he would have left Chicago’s Trinity United church had the militant, anti-American pastor Reverend Jeremiah Wright not recently retired. I don’t know if I’ve ever heard a bigger insult... »
The Candidate and Reverend Wrong
It’s been a little over a year since my column “Obamination†originally appeared in this space, but the disturbing nature of Democrat presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s relationship with his pastor Reverend Jeremiah Wright finally made it into the mainstream press last week. Several video excerpts of Wright’s sermons were aired in which the Reverend... »
