  Transterrestrial Musings — Authority: 146
  …until it happened to me. An amusing publishing tale by Claire Berlinsky. I loved this:I wrote the article, along with a sidebar about Sifu Emin’s top ten tips for defending yourself in hand-to-hand combat. It was a great assignment. I got to call people like Bob Wall and Chuck Norris to ask them [...]

• What Happened To The Cold War?

  
  Transterrestrial Musings — Authority: 146
  Younger people can be easily forgiven for not understanding the significance of what happened in Berlin two decades ago, both because they have little personal memory of what it was like to live under the nuclear threat, and because the teaching of history in public schools is so appalling. But Walter Shapiro ...

  And with a stroke of a pen in a French passenger car, the guns fell silent for two decades.Sadly, this would not be the last time French and German generals would meet in this rail car. The SS, having no sense of humor, destroyed the historic coach on the verge of final defeat in [...]

• Stewing Over Stupak

  
  Mad Kane's Political Madness — Authority: 497
  This feminist is furious over the abortion-coverage-banning Stupak Amendment to the House health care reform bill. And no, Stupak isn’t a Hyde Amendment-equivalent. It’s the Hyde Amendment on steroids.I’ve never been a third party-proponent. But Stupak’s inclusion in the House bill shows such disregard and ...

• What can Brown do TO you today?

  
  Cord Blomquist — Authority: 103
  UPS is trying to foist bad regulation on FedEx. Why? Because FedEx isn’t subject to the same labor regulations as UPS, which means that UPS pays a lot more for labor than FedEx. So instead of working to repeal the bad labor laws that are hurting its business, UPS wants to spread those laws to FedEx, screwing us ...

• Shocked

  
  Transterrestrial Musings — Authority: 146
  I was thinking the other day that if the president were to make an appearance in Berlin, there would be no mention of communism, or liberty or tyranny. I should have made a note of it, because I would be proven correct. As is usually the case, the subject of the speech was [...]

• Military Base Shootings

  
  Transterrestrial Musings — Authority: 146
  Why there will be more. If we couldn’t fix all of this suicidal multi-culturalism and political correctness in the military during the Bush administration, it’s hard to be very optimistic about doing it now. There was reportedly an interview by a CNN reporter who asked a military wife how she felt about her [...]

• Another Apology In The Wings?

  
  Transterrestrial Musings — Authority: 146
  The president doesn’t have time to help the Germans celebrate the anniversary of their freedom, but he wants to go to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I predict that on the seventy-fifth anniversary, next August, he will go there and apologize for the barbarism of the US in dropping the bombs.He probably would have liked to ...

• The Failed Stimulus

  
  Transterrestrial Musings — Authority: 146
  More proof that government spending doesn’t do much for job creation.One reason unemployment continues to rise may be that stimulus funds did not target high-unemployment states.You don’t say.

  Transterrestrial Musings — Authority: 146
  Some good advice for Barack Obama, that he won’t take, because he’s too ideologically rigid, and constitutionally incapable of it. I’ll have some more in a similar vein at PJM this week.

  In 1989, the Germans did what the Gipper told them to and tore down that damn wall.20 years later, Honecker and his cronies have their revenge as the Democrats take a big chunk out of the foundation that is America.A two thousand page health care ‘reform’ bill filled with lawyerese and wonkishness may seem like ...
