Coincidentally my copy of this DVD collection of avant garde films arrived in the mail yesterday -- I picked it up today. What an odd omen considering the message of this post. Ben Shapiro and I had a fun little debate and exchanged some friendly emails last week about his controversial list of "most overrated" directors published last Sunday at John Nolte's Big Hollywood. I was offended by Ben's critical vengeance against my favorite director, Darren Aronofsky, and my favorite film, "Requiem for a Dream." For those who missed the discussion, check it out here: 1. Ben's original Overrated Directors Article Here at ... I'm watching Fox News right now and they are talking about Sen. Arlen Specter's ridiculous and sexist comments aimed at Rep. Michelle Bachmann. You know the "I'll treat you like a lady, so act like one" remarks. One of the guests says there's nothing sexist about these comments and that those who disagree are making a big deal out of nothing. She explained that it's a generational thing: Specter just doesn't know any better, he's an old man, this is how old men treat women. That may be, but that doesn't mean he wasn't being sexist. He was and we all know ... Bin Laden has released a new audio tape to claim responsibility for the Christmas Day airline plot that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab and Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula tried to carry out. It’s sort of like the 7th grade girl who tries to take credit for hooking up two friends who everyone knew were already pursuing each other. It was going to happen anyway, but unable to allow herself to not be part of the big fuss over this exciting new development in the lame world of middle school, she has to find a way to insert herself into the discussion. There’s ... Floating Ice in the Delaware during the Little Ice Age Most of us never noticed anything unusual in the famous painting of George Washington Crossing the Delaware when we first saw it in our American history textbooks. The floating chunks of ice in the scene, are only one of the many surviving reminders of the Little Ice Age. Fortunately for America, Washington's entire army didn't freeze to death in Valley Forge in the winter of 1777, but it was close, and 2,500 of his men did in fact perish that winter. Our understanding of our planet's climate history in recent years has helped us ... "La Revolution mange ses enfants." The Revolution devours her children. This is true not only of those who willingly nourish her with their own lives, but also those offspring who choose to renounce her and face a life of gnawing loneliness and consuming remorse. One man who realized the evil nature of Communism and abandoned the Party was Whittaker Chambers. After years of spying for Russia and establishing activist cells in the United States, Chambers spent his life trying to expose former colleagues who had infiltrated the government and to draw the country’s attention to its peril. His book Witness begins ... Image Courtesy of iowntheworld.com Lori Ziganto's latest article from iOwntheworld.com No, really. They need a commission to figure out why there is so much of that annoying debt stuff. President Barack Obama on Saturday called on Congress to pass a bill creating a fiscal commission amid reports that he will likely create an executive commission if Congress does not act. Obama issued a statement calling for Republicans and Democrats to join the effort, even though Republicans have already voiced their opposition to the plan. “I strongly support legislation currently under consideration to create a bipartisan, fiscal commission to come up with a set of solutions to ... Thanks to Time Magazine's faulty article on my NewsReal blog about Air America's collapse, other news sites have jumped on board.  It is clear from reading them that all they did was pull my quote out of the Time article and never actually read for themselves what I wrote.  That is thanks, in part, to Time not doing the germane task of simply providing a link to my blog in their article. MinnPost.com referred to the Time piece (with a link to it by the way) and then wrote: "It hasn't taken conservatives long to respond with glee, such as this quote ... The January 20 broadcast of NPR's On Point with Tom Ashbrook has a very obvious double meaning: Massachusetts Revolt and Mass Revolt.  NPR is soooooo clever.  Good to know that my tax dollars are not being wasted. So, does NPR consider the election of ostensibly conservative Republican Scott Brown to the Senate seat owned (as in "bought and paid for") by Ted Kennedy and the democrat machine in Massachusetts for the past 50 years to be primarily a local phenomenon (i.e., "It was Democrat challenger Martha Coakley's fault"), or was it a national referendum on both the content and the manner in which the ... -- The Wednesday Morning Club, April 2009 See part 1 of this speech which was featured yesterday. -- If you have a favorite Horowitz quote you want to highlight for others then click here to submit. Please include: "Horowitz Quote of the Day" in subject line. A link to where the quote is from. (No need to include this if it's from a book.) Any remarks you'd like published explaining what value you take from it. Your preferred name and a link to your blog or homepage ... Today, we will start a new series here at NewsRealblog, the subject of which will be David Horowitz's political memoirs Radical Son: A Generational Odyssey. I started reading this book, described by P.J. O'Rourke as "one of the best political memoirs I have ever read," for the first time a few days ago and will share my thoughts on it while reading it. This way, you're  reading it together with me. In this first installment of "Radical Son Reflections," I'd like to focus on the Left's vision for a Utopian socialist future as described by the author in his memoirs. Horowitz describes this ... Is the Obama Administration courting the Taliban? According to a New York Times article, Defense Secretary Robert gates said on Friday, January 22, that the Taliban “must be prepared to play a legitimate role” in Afghanistan.  Gates went on to say that the Taliban must be prepared to participate in elections, not oppose education and not assassinate local officials. United States strategy in both Iraq and Afghanistan has included an effort to ply defectors from the opposition, but is Secretary Gates suggesting that the Taliban could be allowed to run Afghanistan if it just behaves itself? It would seem this is exactly what ...

The Men Behind The Global Warming Conspiracy (According to Jesse Ventura?)

I make a habit of not paying attention to Keith Olbermann much for the same reason I wouldn't pay attention to a grimy, addlepated hobo on the streetcorner
