Employer Bashing Costs Jobs

We on the right tend to make this observation a lot. There is now no possibility of another Smith v. Rae-Venter decision helping hapless employers.  The Legislature has declare in no uncertain terms that the employer can avoid paying the employee’s attorneys fees (read, “the Labor Commissioner’s fees”) only if the employer walks out of Court owing…

Love your enemies, but don’t capitulate to bullies

Tapu Misa’s latest column is a shocker. I knew I’d struggle with the injunction to love my enemies when I first became a Christian. I just didn’t expect so many of them would turn out to be other Christians. Take, for example, the charming folk from the Westboro Baptist Church in the United States who…

Also in the news today, it’s illegal to read monument inscription aloud

I’d love to say “only in America” but it’s more widespread than that. On President’s Day — standing where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have a Dream Speech” — Phillip Howell, 25, recited Lincoln’s famous address and was quickly stopped by the Park Police officer. He told Howell that he could…

Yet another school disinterested in doing it’s job

This makes me angry. Mr Petherick said he had assured Mr Hamilton the school was a safe place for his son. “We have spoken to all the individuals in this, and we believe that it is sorted.” Bullying was not a problem at his school. “Any bullying that happens here we deal with it. We…

More Liberal Tolerance Caught on Camera

Quote: “If a liberal journalist were to produce the kind of footage at any one Tea Party, we would not be allowed to forget about it for the next five years,” Hartsock said. Quote. I doubt we’ll be seeing too many responses like this. Seems all the lefties are too busy telling conservatives that Regan would have…

A nice change in the suppression saga

The most recent celebrity (ug, hate that term) to have come before the courts and have his name supressed has changed his mind. Martin Devlin has issued a statement, which reads in part: Regarding the media coverage there has been… several reports have described me as a “household name”. I think we all agree that…

Arizona, and Palin – The Story So Far and where from here

Let’s review. On Saturday (US Time, it was Sunday here) a shooter killed 6 people and injured 13 others. A us congresswoman (Gabrielle Giffords) was the target, and she was shot in the head but survived. Immediately, media and pundits on the left realized an opportunity to smear, and claimed that the Tea Party’s rhetoric created the political climate for the…

The Key Thing the Left Forgets

Via InstaPundit. MICHAEL MOYNIHAN: The Assassin Who Would Save America From The Extreme Right. “But it is often forgotten, in the swamp of conspiracy theories and lurid fantasies of Sam Giancana and Judith Exner, that prior to shooting President Kennedy, Oswald made an attempt on the life of Gen. Edwin Walker, the far-right Birch Society activist…

More Liberal Logic

Self proclaimed pirate captain Paul Watson is adamant that refueling in the southern ocean is bad. He said the Japanese whaling ships would need to refuel soon. “We will be here with the Sun Laurel waiting for them to arrive. Refuelling south of 60 degrees is illegal and we intend to enforce the Antarctic Treaty…

Where’s the Truth?

Read this on Ann Coulter. In the most bald-faced lie I have ever read in The New York Times — which is saying something — that paper implied Loughner is a pro-life zealot. This is the precise opposite of the truth. Only because numerous other news outlets, including ABC News and The Associated Press, reported…
