    UPDATE:

    I just spoke with my mother in Palm Harbor, and aside from a few fallen branches, things seem to be OK in the Tampa area.

    La Shawn Barber asks, “What’s happening on your side of the blogosphere? Trackback, and I’ll link.”

    Making sure…

  5. Good Reading Links for Monday

    Baldilocks does a little Jesus-preaching and quotes liberally from C.S. Lewis’ Mere Christianity. I love to read about people who take yet another step of sanctification and realize something about themselves needs to change. I’ll be wor…

  10. Illegal Immigration - The Modern Flood

    To say that illegal immigration has gotten out of hand in America is like saying that Noah’s flood caused a little water
    damage.

  11. The Palestine Hotel in Baghdad Attack: Will the Spaniards Sue?

  12. Tommie Smith and John Carlos statue, pork yes, a bad act no!

    I think my Conservative sister Debbie Schlussel is “showing her age” in her view that Tommie Smith and John Carlos were wrong for their actions!

  13. Race and the Unconscious

    In the late 1970’s, I spent some time working in the VA Hospital system. At that time, the primary Psychiatric population we treated were those whose psychiatric problems fell under the category of service-connected disability. Patients with SC disabi…

  14. Well, I am so not sure of blog etiquette, but I am going to go out on a limb and recommend one of the most equisitely written blogs I have ever read..voiceinthewilderness.info…..Texas Tommy is intelligent, insightful, intensely informed, beautifully analytical, AND a conservative who loves his Lord…One of the areas he addresses in an extremely intelligent and expansive fashion is the issue of ‘gay marriage’. He is witty, articulate, and elegant…As Renee says..”Run, don’t walk..”

  16. THE CONQUEROR at the Liberty Film Festival

    El Conquistadore attended all three days of the conservative event, which happened in the most unlikely of places: West Hollywood, CA–his own backyard.

    His favorite film: “Emancipation, Revelation, Revolution”

  19. Rosa Parks Dead at 92

    Considered the one responsible for inspiring the modern Civil Rights movement, by a simple yet historically imparative act of defiance of unjust laws, Rosa Lee Parks has passed away in her home at age 92 of natural causes.

  21. More On Da Vinci Code

    I posted a few days ago, under the influence of La Shawn Barber, that “blog swarming” could be a good front against movies like the Da Vinci Code. Judging by the reaction people had from the book, the movie will surely create a greater broo-ha-ha. It…

  23. LaShawn, I think I’ve proved that the Condi photo USA today used was doctored and constitutes a scandal. Take a look http://www.fromthepen.com/condi_usatoday_scandal.html

  27. Condi’s eyes in the ‘evil look’ picture
    This is simply someone, without experience in the art of Photoshop, or someone who forgot to use their opacity slider and reduce the percentage on the upper white layer, this layer being painted with white and with the opacity dropped down to 10% or 20%, cleans up the red, yellow or grey in the teeth and eyes, and it is meant to only enhance the look of the individual. In this case, it did neither, as the left eyeball was treated with the white brush more like a cat’s eye than a round or oval human eye. That’s the story, it is the operator and his or her supervisor, that is at fault here. Not the publication itself. More like an accident, that shouldn’t have been in the making.

  28. USA TODAY FEELS THE HEAT; RETRACTS ALTERED RICE PH

    Like any other effective propoganda machine, they left it up just long enough for point to get across, and claimed incompetence afterward.

    Genius.

    Make no mistake–this is WWII Nazi propoganda.
