The SoTU

The SoTU

The Union is afraid, and deeply uncertain about its future, but you wouldn’t know that from listening to President Obama last night.   No, our “union is strong,” and the great and building anger of the body politic is nothing but the mewling of spoiled children. And like all parents of misbehaving children, Obama seems disgusted that he [...]

Best Week Ever?

Well, maybe for politically minded conservatives.  Scott Brown wins in Mass., killing ObamaCare, the Supreme Court strikes a blow for the 1st Amendment by ruling against free speech restrictions on corporations, the Copenhagen Accord is collapsing under the weight of its own stupidity, and Air America finally breathes its last.  I’m sorry, [...]

What Exactly is a “Negro Dialect?”

What Exactly is a “Negro Dialect?”

Senate majority leader Harry Reid has inadvertently stepped into the cesspool of misunderstanding and bad faith that is the state of race relations in America.  In what he thought was an off the record interview, Senator Reid said that Obama could be elected President because he was “light skinned” and didn’t speak with a “negro [...]

Can Scott Brown be the 41st?

Maybe.  Today the Boston Herald officially endorsed Republican Scott Brown's Senate run: If you love what’s going on in Washington, well, then by all means vote for Martha Coakley. She’s a perfectly nice person, and she won’t make a dime’s worth of difference in the balance of power in Washington. But if you’re not happy with the [...]

Great Stuff

Great Stuff

There is an excellent piece over at Dr. Sanity's titled The Four Pillars of the Socialist Revival and the Rise of Islamofascim.  A sample: Multiculturalism and political correctness are two of the fundamental pseudo-intellectual, quasi-religious tenets-- along with a third: radical environmentalism--that have been widely disseminated by [...]

What are they thinking?

How  the Obami can continue to write things like this amazes me: "This irrational exuberance was, of course, unsustainable. But it helps explain why the Obama administration is disappointing many Democrats, even though the president is poised to pass health care reform, has avoided any major foreign policy setbacks, and has not had to endure a [...]

Where is the President?

Where is the President?

The attempted destruction of Northwest flight 253 on Christmas day is at least the second, and possibly the third terror attack on United States soil this year, and the President is nowhere to be seen.  This from a man who has spent more time on air, from “special” town halls to spots on late night television, than any other President in [...]

On the radio tomorrow…

Happy Quantum Birthday

Happy Quantum Birthday

First off, I want to thank our resident lefty for reminding me of the one year anniversary of Quantum Conservative, and you, our readers, for sticking with us this long.  This blog was started on election night 2008, with TF, Double Agent, and I drunk blogging the results from our favorite local pub.  There is a funny, and sad, story from that [...]

The Right to Other Peoples Money

The Right to Other Peoples Money

By Clint Patterson Let’s start with two opposing definitions of the term rights.  The first was conceived by the Founding Fathers, was based off of English common law, and can easily be defined as those privileges guaranteed to the people, such as assembly, a free press, and freedom of religion.   Rights, thus conceived, are inherent in the [...]
