UK Telegraph: 'Humans Could Evolve Webbed Feet if Sea Levels Rise'

Quack! Quack! Be advised that the article you are about to read did not appear in The Onion. However, it is completely understandable if that is what you think because the story, which appeared in the U.K. Telegraph, takes Global Warming Alarmism to such an extreme that it has passed from the absolutely absurd into the completely hilarious. Just how laughable is the article? So funny that The…

Reasonable people agree that Americans fear of Islamic terrorism is irrational. Unfortunately, President Obama can't say that in public. That’s the thrust of New York Times reporter Peter Baker's “news analysis” on Tuesday’s front page, before Obama’s last State of the Union Address: “A Speech to Balance Terror and Reality.”  Baker’s pre-game analysis dovetailed with the administration’s…

Bozell & Graham Column: David Brooks Loses It On Ted Cruz

New York Times columnist David Brooks poses as a moderate who never stoops to being crabbily doctrinaire. He is the very model of a PBS/NPR “conservative” – defining conservatism in a very 1950s way, as wearing dreary gray suits and liking Ike and Dick Nixon. Go along, get along with the liberal elites. But as conservatives know all too well, people who pose as “moderates” – politically and…
