Naivete knows no bounds.

I've mentioned it here before, but I'm still amazed at the radicalism that passes for intellectualism at our universities. Here's an interesting article about a professor at Northwestern's Law School, easily considered a top law school in the U.S. I find that this professor's tenure is more alarming than that idiot in Colorado. If she was not admitted to the State Bar of New York due to her lack of respect for the rule of law, how can she possibly be a professor in law school?

A big screen version of Miami Vice? Awesome!

Universal Studios is making a movie version of Miami Vice. Link. How cool is that!?! It's gonna be tough to fill Tubbs' shoes, but I guess we'll see if Jamie Foxx is up to the task. How true to the original will Michael Mann's movie be? Same car? I have to think they'll update some of those things for the movie, although I hope they don't. I need to hear some Don Johnson/Phillip Michael Thomas quotes before and after the movie. What about celebrity appearances? Maybe Bruce Willis will be free?

Here's a newspaper blurb hyping the Mann angle.

Hat tip to other bloggers.

Here's a link to another blog that I find interesting. Seriously, how many conservative black woman are out there?
I found her post of 2.12.05 titled "President of the NAACP" provacative.

Condi versus Hillary? I'll take that bet.

Interesting article here.
Condi has impressive credentials, but difficult political background (not a governor).
I'd vote for her!

A truly historic event goes relatively unnoticed.

Much the same as the elections in Afghanistan, the elections in Iraq have gone by with very little trumpeting by mainstream media. Why am I not surprised?
Here's some insight on the importance of these elections.
(I especially am sickened by the quotes attributed to Ted Kennedy, jerk)
The significance of these elections will probably not be realized in the near future, but if this seedling of democracy can grow in the desert of the Middle East, there really will be hope for our planet.

Clinton begins her move to the middle.

In preparation for an '08 presidential run, she's trying to get towards the political middle here. It will be interesting to see all her manuvering (whatever she is, she's an expert at playing power politics). When will other Dems follow?

Hypocrisy knows no bounds...

Guns are only to protect people that deserve protecting, right Mike? Uberjerks bodyguard arrested for carrying an unlicensed firearm. Link. Jackass.

Here's an interesting take on Moore from Frontpage Magazine.

This article would seem ridiculous....

...until you consider the Commander in Chief at the time. Link.

This blog is INDEPENDENT!

Who knew there was cash in this? See the WSJ article. Man, I gotta get a new agent. Of course, they'll want me to reach a "broader" audience, but I'm no sell out! The George Costanza "Human Fund" doesn't sound like such a bad idea now.

Imaginations run wild.

Oh if only. I would have loved to witness this. Classic. Hey, wouldn't it be great if they made a beer comemrical outta this? Oh wait, I guess they already did. Thanks Miller Lite.
Tough to be a NFL quarterback. Gotta decide which playmate to date. Go for the younger one!

Pathetic doesn't cover it.

Dems, please. Did you see the picture of Boxer crying? Unreal.
A member of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission gets it right here.

Here's some input from Pat in Covedale:

More lost souls on the left:

The hysteria is . . . I don't know, ridiculous, wearisome, embarrassing, sad. Can't find the right adjective. At least my boycott of Wal-Mart was over something we can all get behind - poor customer service.

Allies and real effort.

Here's an interesting article. Seems like if you really want to fight terrorism, you have to do something other than exercise your jaw.

The United States is the most charitable nation around, pal!

Take that "stingy" garbage outta here. Check this info.
Navy press release.
This UN carping is ridiculous and unwarranted. Reform! Renounce?

This is what we are up against.

This is a terrifying article. This is really what we are up against in the "war on terror." It's hard to imagine what is most frightening: That Al Qaeda can still recruit, or that we might not take this seriously. Can't just sit around and wait for this "situation" to resolve itself.

Merry Christmas? You bet!

This article by Jay Nordlinger reminds me of that article by a fellow law student. She angrily demanded that we not "wish her a Merry Christmas" and "force our religious beliefs on her." Gimme a freakin' break. As I sarcastically quipped then, "Yeah, peace on earth and goodwill towards men. We don't need any of that." I'm going to look for that article. I think I saved it. If I can find it, I'll post the full text.
Merry Christmas!

"It's 'cause of my genes, baby."

I have a list of stuff for the blog, and just found this article by John Derbyshire. Still funny.

Stuff we always knew Back when anesthesia was a new thing, William James decided to explore the new realms of consciousness it revealed. He had himself put under with nitrous oxide gas, and while in the semi-conscious state the secret of the universe was revealed to him. He had sufficient control of himself to actually write it down. Before passing out. When the effects of the gas had worn off, he read what he had written:

Higamus, hogamus —
Woman is monogamous.
Hogamus, higamus —
Man is polygamous.

Well, he got that right, as some researchers at the University of Arizona have demonstrated by compiling a genetic record of humanity's reproductive history.

The scientists report that men appear to have traveled widely to mate. They also say that men and women differed in their participation in reproduction, while it was previously thought that men and women both played an equal role in mating. And the researchers have found that more men than women get squeezed out of the mating game, while twice as many women as men pass their genes to the next generation.

"It is a pattern that's built up over time," says Jason Wilder, lead author of the study. "The norm through human evolution is for more women to have children than men. There are men around who aren't able to have children, because they are being outcompeted by more successful males."

Like we didn't know that already. It's a matter of common observation that any woman can get a man to sleep with her, while some men have a heck of a time persuading women to do them the corresponding favor. One of the great arguments in favor of monogamous marriage, in fact, is that a society organized along these lines gives non-alpha males a shot at, well, "the lighter amenities of conjugal life"... Pity our poor male ancestors (or rather, I suppose, in these precise cases, non-ancestors), who had to stand around glumly while the local chief corralled all the nubile women for himself. Let's hear it for Western Civ!

I wanna party with you, cowboy.

Ahh, the good ole days. This place sound familiar?

Wasn't this inevitable?

I haven't been able to follow this story very closely, but after the Spainards capitulated after the train bombings, why wouldn't crazy people use bombs to advance their political agenda?

Important case before the Supremes.

Here's an interesting article about a case that just had oral arguments before the Supreme Court.
It's hard to reconcile my position on this matter. I guess in the end, I'm all about Federalism. Even if states are stupid enough to make mistakes, the Feds should probably stay outta the way. Commerce Clause be damned.

Here's another article pointing out the upcoming issue.

Stuff you won't see at 6pm.

It's hard to continue to post this stuff, but it's still amazing. You won't see this kind of stuff from the mainstream media.
