Delay, Deceive and Destroy
Who believes another FBI investigation of Brett Kavanaugh will be the end of it?
Atticus Finch Was on the Wrong Side
It’s time for “To Kill a Mockingbird” to give up its treasured place in American culture.
Explaining the Left, Part IV: Leftist Contempt for Middle-Class Values
When I was in graduate school, I learned a lot about the left. One lesson was that while most liberals and conservatives abide by society’s rules of order and decency, most leftists do not feel bound to live by these same rules.
A Trillion-Dollar Blunder
I have spent some three decades railing against faulty budgetary scoring of tax bills, but the latest charade from the Congressional Budget Office and Joint Tax Committee takes the cake. The story of fiscal phony math is so indefensible when it comes to the Trump tax cut that you may not believe it could be true. Alas, it is.
Fraud and Circuses: The Political Trashing of Brett Kavanaugh
Perhaps the only thing Republicans and Democrats can agree on concerning the ongoing saga of Brett Kavanaugh’s Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing for the Supreme Court is that it has not closed the divide between the sides, but has driven them further apart.
Trump Trade Triumph
President Donald Trump has delivered on another major campaign promise. He successfully renegotiated the Clinton-era NAFTA agreement.
The Farce Side: Dems Pan Kavanaugh Probe
The U.S. Supreme Court kicked off its fall term yesterday, but most eyes were on the empty seat. Heading into a packed season of cases, the biggest question isn’t how the justices will handle their cases, but who will be with them when they do?

University Removes Bibles From Guest Rooms
The tiny bottles of shampoo are permissible, but the Bible has to go.
Kavanaugh Hearings: The Farce Continues
As predicted, the testimony of Dr. Christine Ford and Judge Brett Kavanaugh solved nothing. Ford was credible, compelling, emotional, and 100% certain that Kavanaugh assaulted her. While I could have done without the tears, Kavanaugh was credible, compelling, emotional, and 100% certain he didn’t assault her or anyone else, ever.
‘Racism’ as a Tool of Racists
Never in human history has a word been used as often and as incorrectly as “racism” is used these days in America.

America Should Do Away With the Death Penalty
Without being aware of it, Vernon Madison might become a footnote in constitutional law because he is barely aware of anything.

Judgment Day
Politico reports that Arizona prosecutor Rachel Mitchell, who assisted Judiciary Committee Republicans with the questioning of Dr. Christine Ford, offered her professional opinion to Republicans in a closed-door caucus meeting.
The Barbarism of the Democrat Party
On Thursday, in Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s testimony, the American people saw a man fighting for his reputation, his integrity, and his family. His moving words felt less like a testimony and more like the last cries of an innocent animal before it is slaughtered.
The Senate’s Fight for Justice
Some day, years from now when Americans look back on this moment, I hope they see more than Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Ford.
A Way Out of the Mess
The other day I checked my high school yearbook to see what might keep me from confirmation to the Supreme Court. In it, there is a quote from former education secretary William J. Bennett: “Saints are not born through other people’s sins.”
English as a Second Language
It’s bad enough that tens of millions of Latinos don’t speak English in their home, language being the glue that binds people together, but the other night, because my TV began acting screwy, I was forced to spend an hour and a half on the phone with various Filipinos who had only a casual acquaintance with English.

Brett Kavanaugh Should Be Angry
Brett Kavanaugh may have saved his Supreme Court confirmation with one of the most memorable statements in modern congressional history.
Kavanaugh’s Indictment
Judge Brett Kavanaugh entered the hearing room yesterday after 10 days of his character and his family being smeared day after day. After Democrats accused him and his supporters of being evil and saying that people will die if he is confirmed, he declared his innocence and blasted the confirmation process as “a national disgrace.”
