Mea culpa

A poster at the Right-Wing News wonders at the inclusion of a certain commentator on the Right-of-Center Bloggers List Their Least Favorite People on the Right: I am suprised to see Malkin on this list. I wonder why she made the list. In part, because I get a vote. Although I was pleased to see […]

Omission is not negation

Malkin(s) Watch doesn’t seem to think the issue through: Vox Day’s column this week laments the shift of the conservative movement to (and its subsequent dry-humping of) The Left, and he finally does what none of us have had the courage to do: Peg down Michelle’s politics with a single label based on a single […]

In defense of the Littlest Chickenhawk

Lightning Aura jumps in very late: I have not been reading this blog for very long, so I dont know what happened between you two. If you really wanted to ‘eviscerate’ him why not have an intellectual debate? Because a debate takes two. Mr. Shapiro is too scared and self-important to do what he declares […]

Garbage gobblers and the trash that feeds them

Here we go again. SingleMind brings up the usual theme after first being kind enough to throw the snarling dog a few bones. Vox challenged Shapiro–who is a 21-year-old law school student at Harvard–to put his money where his mouth is and join the military. In the exchange that ensued, Vox attacked Shapiro with implicit […]

Racists, racists everywhere

Sinewave demonstrates his successfully indocrination by the PC crowd: OK, I’m going to slammed for this, but here it goes. I feel using “me-so” in Michelle’s name is racist. She is ditzy and pompous, but I don’t believe a tramp. The “Me-so” title implies she is a whore from SE Asia. I assume your using […]

Mailvox: Carnegie and the columnist

CC wants more columns on “conservatives”: Constitution? What Constitution? I didn’t think we still had one of those… If we do, it’s not because of people like Ben Shapiro. His WND columns are an embarrassment to actual conservatives who unfortunately get tarred with the same brush because he calls himself “conservative”. But his most recent […]

Mailvox: Bulverisms and bollocks

GN writes:: “Like I said, Shapiro may indeed be a chickenhawk, but you aren’t among the men – or women, for that matter – with the moral authority to level that charge at him.” “No one needs any “moral authority” to do so. A fact is a fact.” This is classic Bulverism – YOUR opinion […]

On global empire

There are three extant strains of thought when it comes to American empire. These are: 1. The Marxian notion of global capitalist hegemony2. The realpolitik view of sole superpower3. The utopian concept of world democratic revolution The “empire” for which Ben Shapiro and his neocon compatriots call is this third sort. It has its origins […]

Mailvox: logic and pugilism

JR plays dirty by bringing logic into the equation: I think you are becoming a victim of the type of “debate” used by . . . chickenhawks . . . on, say, FreeRepublic. You end up chasing them as they obfuscate, dodge, change the subject, etc. They are great at creating quagmires. It is really […]
