A report that Congress doesn’t want us to see
October 31, 2009Can we get conservatives and Christians covered under hate-crimes as well?
October 28, 2009Democrats have added homosexuals as a new group protected under the federal hate-crime law, which makes homosexuals more important in the eyes of the law than heterosexuals. The way this story is written you would believe that it is currently not a crime to commit violence against a homosexual. In fact, homosexuals are protected under current laws just like [...]
Advertised gun-free zones are invitations to criminals with guns
October 24, 2009USAGI points out that Wackovia banks in Northern Virginia have posted “No Guns” signs recently, and have been robbed four times in three weeks.

Almost fell out of my chair laughing
October 8, 2009A crew of Somali pirates thought they were about to raid a commercial vessel, but instead they ran across a French Navy ship.
“The pirates, who because of the darkness took the French ship for a commercial vessel, were on board two vessels and opened fire with Kalashnikovs,” Admiral Christophe Prazuck said in Paris.

What about “women’s rights?”
September 30, 2009Movie director Roman Polanski has been arrested in Zurich and is going to be extradited to the U.S. to face punishment for having intercourse with a 13-year-old girl more than 30 years ago. Hollywood-types are coming out in favor of letting Polanski walk.

ACORN under fire
September 19, 2009It looks like there’s going to be a little less community organizing going on in Texas in the near-term as ACORN is suddenly concerned about appearing ethical.
ACORN offices across Texas are temporarily halting the bulk of their work, following the lead of other chapters nationwide, as they retrain workers and make sure proper policies and [...]
Gypsies, tramps, and thieves
September 14, 2009President Obama’s ACORN group is under fire, but not from the mainstream press. A man and a woman went undercover as a pimp and a prostitute to ACORN to get advice on how to evade taxes on their underage prostitution ring. Apparently, ACORN is pretty good at this sort of thing, because they knew exactly how [...]
Willie Herenton, the gift that keeps on taking
September 6, 2009Even though Willie Herenton resigned as mayor of Memphis weeks ago, the bills just keep pouring in.
Federal investigators are digging deeper into a $55,000 payment the city of Memphis made to a private lawyer representing former Mayor Willie Herenton in a criminal probe.
Already questioned by the FBI about why he authorized the payment, City Atty. [...]
Getting a bit testy
September 3, 2009First, union thugs beat up a black man who opposes ObamaCare, and now an ObamaCare opponent has gotten his finger bitten off by some deranged ObamaCare supporter.
California authorities say a clash between opponents and supporters of health care reform ended with one man biting off another man’s finger.
Ventura County Sheriff’s Capt. Frank O’Hanlon says about 100 [...]
Hitting back
August 31, 2009Former Miss California Carrie Prejean is suing Miss California USA officials under a myriad of accusations for stripping her of her crown after she revealed her opposition to same-sex marriage. Good for her.
Carrie Prejean’s attorney, Charles S. LiMandri announced today that the former Miss California USA is filing a complaint in the Superior Court of [...]
Sorry, Charlie
August 28, 2009Congressman Charlie Rangel, who oversees the Ways and Means Committee, appears to have, er, not paid his fair share of taxes. Keep in mind, Congressman Rangel is a stauch liberal who believes in soaking the rich because, let’s face it, they didn’t pay their fair share under the Bush tax cuts. Well, it looks like [...]
Who dumped that beer?
August 14, 2009Authorities in Chicago are hot on the trail of a Cubs fan who dumped his beer on Phillies’ centerfielder Shane Victorino as he was making a catch near the outfield wall during the Phillies’ 12-5 thumping of the Cubs Wednesday evening. Victorino filed a complaint with city authorities, and was apologized to yesterday by Cubs’ management, right [...]
Heterosexual monogamy rules
August 12, 2009There’s a lot to be said for a man who stays faithful to his wife, because adultery really can complicate things, as Rick Pitino has found out. I’ll be he wishes he could have that one back.
Louisville men’s basketball coach Rick Pitino told police he had sex with a woman accused of trying to extort [...]
According to Eric Holder, this is not a hate crime
July 9, 2009It looks like racism in America is alive and well, after all.
It came after a family night of celebrating America and freedom with a fireworks show at Firestone Stadium. Marshall, his family and two friends were gathered outside a friend’s home in South Akron.
Out of nowhere, the six were attacked by dozens of teenage boys, [...]
So much for “equal protection”
July 9, 2009Here’s an exchange between Senator Jeff Sessions and Attorney General Eric Holder back on June 25 during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on hate-crimes legislation:
Sessions: A minister gives a sermon, quotes the Bible about homosexuality, is thereafter attacked by a gay activist because of what the minister said about his religious beliefs and what Scripture [...]
R.I.P., Steve McNair
July 4, 2009I just heard on the radio a few minutes ago that former Tennessee Titans quarterback Steve McNair was found shot dead in his Nashville home earlier today. Shocking.

Today’s Lebanon Democrat column: “Not so fast, mainstream press”
June 23, 2009Two weeks ago, an 88-year-old man named James von Brunn shot and killed a security guard at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. He was critically wounded himself, thwarting his ability to make further attacks.
We have learned a great deal about James von Brunn in the days following his attack. He embodied an extreme hatred of [...]
Not so fast, mainstream press
June 14, 2009Last week’s shooting at the Holocaust Museum in Washington gave the media the opportunity to bash right-wing extremists. After all, anytime there’s a shoot-em-up, it’s a gun-loving right-winger, right? Wrong. Last week’s culprit was a flaming leftist. But you didn’t hear that from the mainstream press. That’s because the facts didn’t fit the media template.

The least safe city in the U.S.
June 6, 2009That distinction, unfortunately, belongs to my beloved city of Memphis, Tennessee. Ugh.
After New York, America’s safest cities are: San Jose, Los Angeles, San Diego, El Paso, Honolulu, Denver, Boston, Las Vegas and Louisville.
And the U.S.’s least safe city? That distinction goes to Memphis, Tennessee, with a crime rate of 18% per capita, followed by Atlanta [...]
Latest phishing scheme
May 21, 2009I received a call at work two days ago. On the other end was a crappy sounding automated voice claiming to be from F&M Bank. (We don’t even use F&M Bank.) The crappy sounding automoated voice said our account had been disabled because of suspicious activity, and that I needed to enter our 16-digit credit [...]
