Brookes News Update The red-green alliance against the West: The greens, like the communists and Nazis before them, are inordinate, i.e., there is no limit to their demands. Each demand will be followed by more demands. They are only interested in total and unconditional surrender. This is why they ally themselves with Islamofascists Productivity,...
Today’s anti-American leftists betray their own radical heritage A few excerpts from an excellent July 4 article by Michael Medved: Today’s militant leftists not only spread lies about America’s present but generate even more damaging distortions about the nation’s past and in so doing differentiate themselves from the radical idealists of yesteryear. Contemporary followers...
AN OLD TRUTH REDISCOVERED As I have long ago shown elsewhere, academic psychology just goes around in circles, continually reinventing the wheel. The latest example is the following “discovery: “Beauty may be more than skin deep after all. New research suggests that good-looking people do better in exams and thus probably in later life,...
Pollyanna speaking I live in a country where I broadly approve of what the political class does. I don’t think Australia’s national leadership always gets it right but, given the circumstances in which they operate, I think they do pretty well. As far as I can see, I live in one of the world’s...
BLOGIVERSARY My first blog post ever was on this day in 2002. I reproduce immediately below an excerpt from the post concerned: ************************** DENIAL OF REALITY “The most common of all follies is to believe passionately in the palpably not true. It is the chief occupation of mankind.” (H.L. Mencken) There would seem to...
THE COLOR OF RACISM IS DEMOCRAT BLUE “Bigotry has proven, once again, to be the hallmark of Democrats and Liberals. This article from the Washington Post shows how some of one color are upset that someone of another color would DARE run for office in “their” district. The only difference between these people, such...
Brookes News Update What’s new about Sulzberger and the New York Times committing treason? After all, Clinton did it: It’s not the first time that the craven Arthur Sulzberger has committed treason and it won’t be the last. Not satisfied with aiding and abetting terrorists this collaborator authorized Bill Keller to personally target Rumsfeld...
ABOUT OUR ‘DICTATOR’ Excerpt from Jeff Jacoby In many quarters it has long been taken for granted that George W. Bush is an aspiring dictator, ravenous for power and all too willing to shred the constitutional checks and balances that restrain presidential authority. Of course this kind of paranoia is routine in the ideological...
BOOK REVIEW of “Only in America” by Paul Oreffice Published by Stroud & Hall, Macon, Georgia. H.B. $25 This book is a lot better than it sounds at first. Happily, stories about immigrants making good in America are so common that they have become almost boring. But this is a very un-boring book. As...
IMMIGRATION NOT AN ECONOMIC BENEFIT A British article excerpted below ‘We recognise the positive contributions immigration makes to the country and the economy,” the Prime Minister’s official spokesman said last week. “If we don’t have migration, we don’t have the growth from the economy that we all benefit from.” He was responding to some...

THE NYT HAS BEEN A PROMOTER OF TYRANTS FOR A LONG TIME We all know about the lying Duranty and Stalin but here is more: The late New York Times journalist Herbert L. Matthews is now an almost forgotten name, except, perhaps, among journalism students and those who remember the earliest days of the...
ANOTHER CLINTON FANTASY Post lifted from Taranto. For previous fantasies, see here CNN reports on a speech by New York’s junior senator: Appearing before a religious conference earlier this week, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-New York) told the audience that as a child attending Sunday school she would baby-sit the children of migrant workers...
Capitol Criminals Excerpt from Nathan Tabor Since the Clintons left office, Democrats have been a little dull, resisting the urge to engage in high crimes and misdemeanors. But, lo and behold, now we’re recovering from a Democratic crime wave in Washington. And, what’s so fascinating about the situation is that the self-proclaimed party of...
Race and Australia’s immigration policy Regardless of what may be true of the group, we cannot assume the same for every individual in that group. So when I comment about things in Jews as a whole that I like (such as high IQ and high drive) and when I point to things in blacks...
Saddam’s WMD: Why is the U.S. intelligence community holding back? Excerpt from here. One of the writers is the chairman of the House Permanent Committee on Intelligence! Even he is getting the mushroom treatment (kept in the dark and fed bulls**t) On Wednesday, at our request, the director of national intelligence declassified six “key...
Defending Christians Excerpts from an interview with Patrick Hynes, author of “In Defense of the Religious Right” Q: Quite a few people and even some bestselling books are saying the GOP is the party of theocracy. Any truth in this? Hynes: None at all. Conservative Christians within the GOP don’t agree on their theology,...
AUSTRALIA’S “NOBLE SAVAGES” In their hatred of their own society, a persistent Leftist theme has been the myth of the “Noble savage” (Rousseau’s term). Reality would have made “warlike” or “murderous” a better adjective than “noble” for most primitive people but Leftists are driven by their fantasies, not by reality. Australia has a bunch...
Time for St. Andrew’s Comeuppance? Post excerpted from Ankle-biting Pundits R. Andrew Newman has a piece in today’s American Spectator that I hope will only be the first in a long series of indignant swipes at “excitable Andrew” Sullivan for his truly disgusting “Christianist” smear. “If you fail to subscribe sincerely and personally to...
CAR REPORT I have been doing this blog since July 2002 and in all that time I cannot remember saying anything about the cars I drive — which makes me a rather unusual male blogger, I think. So just to show that I am not totally weird, I think I will say a bit...
