It’s all too easy to get swamped with information overload anymore what with everyone and everything on political fast forward these days. In the last week alone we’ve been treated to pirates, puppies, TEA parties, secession rumors from Texas and more than half of America’s citizens being labeled as potential domestic terrorists because they don’t completely support all of the leftwing agenda of President Obama and his radical cohorts.
Isn’t that last item lovely? Haven’t you always wanted to be considered “dangerous” somehow? My bet is that as a good, patriotic American, you aren’t exactly enjoying the frisson of being labeled an enemy of the Obamunist State. Or maybe you are and are still running on the adrenaline of being at a TEA Party. Anger will keep you warm too and you’ll need it once Obama’s Cap and Trade Policy gets into law because you won’t be able to afford to heat your home this winter.

Although I didn’t vote for him, and, if you are reading this, there’s a good chance that you didn’t vote for him either, Barack Hussein Obama is our President for better or for worse, for good or for ill or until after four years do us part. Until then, it’s Suffer Time; break it down!
Sometimes you just have to laugh at the Pauline Kael-like left. It seems that leftists in America are either mentally stunted or living in such an enclosed, bubble-world that they cannot discern reality from their own fantasy. Such is the case with the faux shock expressed by one 
For years now American TV audiences been constantly accosted with the overblown drama, feelings, and theatrics of people we don’t care about. It is given the exalted genera title of “reality TV.” Now Salon.com brings that drama queen sensationalism to journalism! Oh, joy.
We can’t stand RINO Arlen Spector. He’s not a Republican no matter what his name plate says. Most of Ron Paul’s supporters are just on the wrong side of tinfoil hattery. Social Cons need to get their head out of their rears and stop thinking abortion is the only issue in the game. Neocons really need to know that Israel isn’t the only thing that America should be worried about overseas. Country Clubbers just gotta remember that the business community isn’t all there is to this country. Foreign policy realists need to have it pointed out to them that principles DO matter not just “what works.” Strict constructionists should remember that compromise is a founding principle, too. The David Frums and Kathleen Parkers of the world have to be shown the door. You hear all these arguments and more coming from inside the GOP, these epithets used like clubs against our own with the result being that it always seems at any minute a party wide cage match could erupt. And I am often just as guilty in playing the purity game. Likely, so are you.
With apologies to the many fine folks at law that visit these pages, and those of my colleagues on the web that ply the law, today I am going to act the vulgar Shakespearian and advocate to “first kill all the lawyers.” Well, if not kill them exactly, then at least put many of them out of work — not that I am any expert on Shakespeare, he says to a chorus of “you betchas.” Still, the thought comes to mind because of a recent 
Captain Adam Kinzinger, 30, officer in the Air National Guard, was enjoying a night on the town in Milwaukee in May of 2007 when he saw before him a woman clutching her neck and bleeding profusely, a man with a knife standing behind her. Acting quickly, 
U.S. colleges are demanding. That’s right they are sternly demanding. You see, they are all upset that the Japanese government is not promoting study abroad for its citizens and they are demanding that the Japanese government get more of its citizens to pony up the cash for a U.S. college degree and if the people won’t do it, why these U.S. colleges demand that the government do it in their stead. 
We all saw the rocky performance that Bobby Jindal gave in his response to the president’s not-the-state-of-the-union speech earlier this week. There was a lot of wincing going on during and after his performance. But, let me stress the word “performance,” here. It was NOT the basic theme of the speech that was so bad. It was but how he delivered it.
Glenn Greenwald of Salon.com seems to think that Bill Clinton’s nonexistent boogie men, “the militias,” are back. Why are they back? Because all white people are angry, racists that are mad that Obama got elected, of course. What else could have dredged up this fantasy from the depths of the liberal’s worst nightmares of the 1990s? Somehow, though, it’s a bit hard to imagine Greenwald’s main premise considering the fact that millions of those same white Americans Greenwald so fears actually voted for Obama. 
For some thirty years Congress has built into bills a legislative device called a “pro-life rider.” These riders prevent public funding for abortion from being slipped into bills under the radar. These riders have wide bi-partisan support having resisted elimination since the 1970s.

We have here a classic case of liberal bias in the Old Media. It isn’t as dramatic as may others that we have seen since The One came onto the national scene, but it is the sort of bias that has been endemic in the Old Media for a very long time. In a
