  • [More school killings, this time with a revolver and a shotgun – no semi-autos in sight, yet the killings continue.  When do we come to a national conclusion that it is the shooters we should do better at identifying and stopping, rather than taking guns from law abiding citizens?  gjr]

  • [We kinda skipped over the initiative to let California's illegal aliens hold seats on state boards and commissions.  And none of the Left have answered the concern about what will become of America if everyone who presents themselves at our border, and declares that their own country is not fit to live in, is granted…

  • [Well, I guess the big question du jour is whose bygone trysts are the most damning – a previous president's, verified and while in office; or the current president's, alleged and before he took office.  The French are laughing their butts off that the puritan Americans, especially the secular humanist progressives, are making such a…

  • [The Union is on an anti-gun binge, led by editor Don Rogers' editorial (here).  More needs to be said about the hoaky poll they are conducting.  Let's see if they publish a mea culpa on how easy it has been to subvert the poll's count as reported by our commenters.  gjr]

  • [I guess tonight belongs to Stormy.  We have the DVR on and it's recording the long-awaited '60 Minutes' interview which we will watch a bit later.  I presume everyone is preparing their pot shots.  Perhaps we'll even have a thoughtful perspective about what our country has now become with this latest widening the rift even…
