Gun Rights Hanging by a Thin Thread
MichNews.com-- A few minutes after ten on the morning of June 26, the Supreme Court gave every conservative a reason to get excited, charged up, fired up, yes, even, if need be, a little wild-eyed about the coming election.

The Feminist as Political Hack
MichNews.com-- Despite the real problems commanding our attention these days, we are forced to endure the rants of the nation’s self-anointed feminists who complain bitterly about the sexism that sank their champion’s bid for the presidency.

Gulliverian to the Core
MichNews.com-- After Gulliver completed the last of his travels, his delusions about being perfectly rational drove him to a misanthropy so deeply psychotic that he was repulsed by every other human, even his wife and children. Thus, he spent the remaining years of his life amid the stench of the stable communing with horses, the only equals he could find.

Hillary's Septic Soul
MichNews.com-- After Hillary spurned beautiful, vigorous, life-affirming June in favor of a disgustingly serendipitous month in which the murder of her opponent allows her to become the Democratic nominee, Michael Goodwin of New York’s Daily News observed, “We have seen an X-ray of a very dark soul.” Then, he added: “We could have seen it coming, if only we had realized Clinton’s thinking could be so cold.”

The Past Is Not Dead
MichNews.com-- When we get to feeling like Big Brown (who certainly has a right to feel his oats), we Americans often plume ourselves about “how far we’ve come” and how “advanced” we are compared to America of the past.

Vetoing Hillary
MichNews.com-- If someone had asked you last fall to speculate about how the Clintons would react if by some miracle Barack Obama stole Hillary’s mantle of inevitability regarding the Democratic nomination, how would you have responded?

Goodbye Hillary, Goodbye Barack
MichNews.com-- The primary thus far has been a deservedly hellish experience for presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, and things are only going to get worse. But what should the nation expect from a “congenital liar” and a Centrist imposter who represent a Democratic Party so much dominated by Liberals that its Congressional Moderates and Conservatives could hold their meetings in a cloakroom that doubles as the Blue Dog Democrat Clubhouse.

Alice in a Mad, Mad Wonderland
MichNews.com-- Almost immediately after reading Alice Walker’s piece in The Guardian (“Lest We Forget: An open letter to my sisters who are brave”), I began thinking about how an elderly Jewish-Italian gentleman who struck up a conversation with me in front of the Great Synagogue of Rome would react to the political attitudes the novelist reveals as she argues for candidate Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton.

Hillary's Paradise Lost
MichNews.com-- Just months ago, Hillary Clinton believed she was comfortably and inevitably on her way to the paradise she regards as an entitlement earned by a lifetime of shameless lying — lied every word of the way, we should add, not through her teeth but an amoral mouth whose dismissive laugh women named Broaddrick, Jones, Willey, et al. have taught us is both contemptible and unfunny.

After Oregon Things Fall Apart
MichNews.com-- We can be pretty sure the Democratic Party’s superdelegates don’t curl up in a chair every evening musing over Yeats’ “The Second Coming.” However, we can be absolutely certain those pompous reactionaries agonize day and night over a Democratic Party wildly “turning and turning in the widening gyre” of anger, foul play, and bitterness.

Hillary: Hoist with Her Own Petard
MichNews.com-- You won’t get it from too clever by half talking heads and “experts,” but the only sensible speculation about Hillary Clinton’s presidential chances argues that the bombs Mrs. Clinton has employed in her campaign will blow up in her face.

Bill and Hillary Billions
MichNews.com-- I can’t for the life of me understand why, but the Obama campaign hasn’t thought it important to expose the financial shenanigans in which the Clintons have immersed themselves both during and after Bill Clinton’s presidency. After all, telling the truth that another Clinton in the Oval Office will guarantee scandals of proportions not seen since the age of the Robber Barons will surely be the straw that breaks the backs of a slew of Hillary’s already Clinton-fatigued supporters.
