Confessions of a Conservative Atheist
The world’s only one man media empire
Inherent in the outrage is the idea that media outlets exist to advance their progressive view of the world, prioritizing their beliefs and preferences above all others. Progressives have whipped themselves into a frenzy over The Washington Post’s decision not to endorse a candidate for president this year or, assuming they stick to it, any… Continue reading The Washington Post’s endorsement “scandal” says a lot more about progressives than anything else
While former President Donald Trump might not prevail next week, we can say with surety that the hope, the joy, the vibes, the brat, and everything else that was supposed to propel Vice President Kamala Harris to victory has faded, to be replaced by what can best be summarized as Orange Man Bad. Rather incredibly… Continue reading Harris has nothing on Trump and everyone knows it
Previously, I had opined that just when you thought the Biden-Harris foreign policy couldn’t get any worse it does. I followed that up by claiming that we’re an impotent bystander in world affairs, but somehow they have managed to continue to reach depths previously thought unreachable. Earlier this week, Secretary of State Antony Blinken made… Continue reading Biden and Harris demand peace in the Middle East despite a string of victories that might actually secure it, while seeking total victory in Ukraine even as Russia continues to flaunt their growing power
Rockefeller himself was an unlikely business tycoon, born into a relatively poor family in upstate New York on July 8, 1839. His mother was the daughter of a local minister. His father was effectively a con artist, who had multiple identities and sold fake cures for cancer and other maladies. Still, he changed the world… Continue reading Modern capitalism, John D. Rockefeller, and the lies of the 1619 Project revisited
As pundits ponder the resiliency of a former President they despise, they’d do well to consider that people become dulled to controversies, real and imagined, and the accompanying rhetoric, causing both to lose their potency. There are few politicians, especially in recent memory, who have been denigrated as aggressively and hyperbolically as President Trump. Lately,… Continue reading Donald Trump and the law of diminishing returns
Conceivably, we might have given them the benefit of the doubt the first time around, applying the old adage about fooling me once and fooling me twice, but the second? After the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump in as many months, it’s become all-too clear that the establishment, which includes the Secret… Continue reading Trump: Dead or alive, you’re coming with me, so says the establishment
When Secretary of State Hillary Clinton used a fake Southern accent in 2015, we called it pandering, even those who tried to rationalize the behavior and give her the benefit of the doubt, but today Vice President Harris’ obviously fake accent is an intrinsic part of her mixed race heritage and dare not be questioned… Continue reading Code-switching is all the rage, but what’s with the progressive need for new words to describe old things?
Sherry won’t abandon her mother, and the speaker is either stuck with the three of them jammed into the same small car, or he can move on, hoping to catch the eye of one of those “girls melting on the beach,” but the Vice President doesn’t have that option when it comes to casting off… Continue reading Biden’s “Sherry Darling” moment at the DNC because Governor Walz is such a Springsteen fan
The media wants you to think of the current race as something akin to a prime 2008 Barack Obama battling a beleaguered 2016 Donald Trump. The one is the candidate of all our hopes, dreams, and aspirations. The other is completely unhinged, bitter, angry, and unfit. Both are serious cases of projection... “The lady doth… Continue reading The Democrats and the media are still scared shitless of Trump
One narrative holds that Vice President Kamala Harris has created the most joyous, transcendent election campaign since President Barack Obama in less than three weeks. Another is that she has done absolutely nothing except garner larger crowds, read someone else’s scripts, and pose for the cameras. Like magic, the media has settled on a new… Continue reading Let them eat joy
