NYTimes

The New York Times is a legend in their own eyes.

Truth

Winston Churchill, who once said, “The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.”

Interventionism

The foreign policy of the Founders – who inveighed against going abroad “in search of monsters to destroy”.

Clinton on negroes

“African Americans watch the same news at night that ordinary Americans do.”

Birth prevention

Studies such as the one reported by the Guttmacher Institute showing that 54 percent of women who have had abortions have been using birth control [prevention].

Evolution in schools

It should be taught in public schools but not until students have been taught to read and count.

Priests and bishops

There is one further, curious and very important footnote to the Church’s reaction to the Abyssinian War: research has shown that the vast majority of parish priests in the country were resolutely opposed to the adventure.

Science and belief

The discovery only applies if the moon was in fact created when a Mars-sized rock crashed into the still molten Earth and shot debris into orbit around us. Since this is the current theory most scientists believe, it means that either the collision occurred much later than they thought, or that the moon was created some other way entirely.

Death

You don't have any choice in where you die or how you die. The only choice you have is what you die for.

Lapsed Catholics

This is the fervent evangelistic writing of a “collapsed Catholic”.

Sea to sea

The ululations of the aggrieved resounded from sea to whining sea.

Cardinal Newman

"If the Church would be vigorous and influential, it must be decided and plain-spoken in its doctrine".

The New Deal

In May 1939, shortly after learning that unemployment stood at 20.7%, Henry Morgenthau, the secretary of the Treasury, exploded: “We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work.” Morgenthau concluded, “I say after eight years of this administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started. . . . And an enormous debt to boot!”

H Clinton and China

Shortly after becoming U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton stated clearly that she was not going to allow human rights to ‘interfere’ with economic issues with China.

Jews and abortion

Jewish doctors were most likely to say they would do an abortion.

Fascism in Italy

Mussolini’s supporters, including far too many Catholic bishops, used it as an excuse for his dictatorship.

Sowing and reaping

"Were we directed from Washington when to sow and when to reap," Jefferson dryly remarked, "we should soon want bread."

Evolution or appearance

Their assertion, if sustained, confirms the view that life evolved on earth surprisingly soon after the Late Heavy Bombardment.

[The confusion between evolution and appearance]

Provocation

Israel doesn't want to provoke Egypt by preparing for the worst.

[Where have we heard that before?]

Loyalty

"To be sure, the dog is loyal. But why, on that account, should we take him as an example? He is loyal to men, not to other dogs." --- Karl Kraus

Friends and enemies

Henry Kissinger's words still resonate: the only thing worse than being America's enemy is being America's friend.

The student party

As a student who was full of enthusiasm about life after the student party is over, I am left totally disillusioned.

Penn

"Those who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants.”

Hamilton

Hamilton, like his fellow Founders, had a lot to say about virtue and principle. He is said to have stated, “He who stands for nothing, will fall for anything.”

JFK and Krushchev

“Little Boy Blue meets Al Capone,” a U.S. diplomat said.
Khrushchev treated Kennedy with brutal disdain. In excruciating pain from his ailing back and pumped full of perhaps disorienting drugs by his disreputable doctor (who would lose his medical license in 1975).

Liberalism

If Jewish, they live like WASPs, vote like blacks, and lobby like La Raza—and then complain that many don’t like them. If Christian, they vote socialist and then discover the unknowable secret that socialists hate Christians.

Paul Krugman

Former Enron adviser Paul Krugman

ECUSA

The Episcopal Church which has "more clergy than people".

The Poor

Protect the Poor, Not Poverty Programs

Liberal religion

On the other hand, the Episcopalians and the rest of the Christian left, for whom terms like God, Jesus and the Gospel are nothing more than professional jargon, put their whole trust in governmental policy position papers.

Mr. Obama

He is the man with a poor mistress and a rich wife.

Economics

Economics really is taking in each other's laundry.

Debt ceiling

As part of this historic "cut," we've now raised the "debt ceiling" – or, more accurately, lowered the debt abyss.

Jobs in Russia

He graduated from Moscow State Textile University and was dismayed to discover that all the textile factories in the region had closed, with little hope for a comeback in the near future.

Wisdom

"Man is only wise while he searches for wisdom; if he thinks he's found it, he's a fool."

The media

"The media has, as it's always done, done a terrible job reporting on this. They have seen the fire and they've decided to throw gasoline on it,"

El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora de Los Angeles

Jane Jacobs, for instance, denounced Los Angeles as a “vast, blind-eyed reservation.” But people continued to move to a place that offered the promise of urban opportunity along with a single-family house, a swimming pool, and access to beaches and mountains.

Eating the corn

"The only way the Americans have come up with to improve economic growth has been to take on new loans to repay the old ones," a blistering commentary published on the official Xinhua news agency said. "To eat May's grain in April, however, will never be a permanent solution to a problem,"

Poor

A group calling itself the “Circle of Protection” recently promoted a statement on “Why We Need to Protect Programs for the Poor.” But we don’t need to protect the programs. We need to protect the poor. Indeed, sometimes we need to protect the poor from the programs. Too many anti-poverty programs are beneficial for the politicians that pass them, and veritable boondoggles for the government bureaucracy that administers them, but they actually serve to rob the poor of their dignity and their initiative, they undermine the family structures that help the poor build prosperous lives, and ultimately mire the poor in poverty for generations.

National Council of Churches

National Council Of Churches Nobody Goes To Anymore

Genius

Einstein is right when he says. “the difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limit.”

American economy

The assumption . . . is that there is some kind of perpetual engine of economic prosperity in America that is going to just continue.

Employed unemployment

The unemployment rate ticked down to 9.1 percent. The Labor Department said the improvement was mostly due to people leaving the labor force.

Archaic government

The simplest explanation—and the president's real bluff—is that they don't want to commit publicly to the kind of tax increases and health-care rationing that would be required to sustain their archaic vision of government.

Progressives

The Progressives came to do good...and did very well indeed.

Paul Krugman

Paul Krugman, the New York Times columnist who lives in an academic bubble as a tenured professor at Princeton, protected from the rough and robust reality of the real world, complains that he doesn’t understand why everyone is talking about cutting the size of government, anyway. The skin on his nose is intact.

Economic growth

And now it's going to see an unprecedented period of economic collapse due to the same US hegemony.

The "growth" has turned out to be nothing more than an inflation of asset bubbles hiding unsustainable debt... POP!!
