In the poll of Jewish voters (conducted April 1-30), it showed Obama getting 61% of the Jewish vote against John McCain (32%). Yet in the same poll Hillary Clinton beat Obama among Jewish voters 62% - 38%. So obviously Jews are lifelong democrats who would vote for Obama, whom they rejected in the primaries, rather than vote for McCain.
More proof, if needed, of Obama’s anti-Israel friends.

Politicians are always looking for an edge to be seen to be doing something; especially if it involves children. Never is it more likely that during an election year or the lead up to a general election. Politicians all over the Anglosphere are eyeing the video game industry with ill intent.

National polls get big play in the media, but really don’t matter. After all, the Constitution doesn’t count the national totals for anything. It is the Electoral College totals that determine the outcome of the election — and polls show something very interesting there, according to the analysis by this blogger.

Prices of the commodity are skyrocketing as hop supplies have plummeted, forcing smaller brewmasters around the United States to begin quietly tweaking their recipes, in ways that are easily discerned by serious imbibers.

Often it seems as though American higher education exists only to provide gag material for the outside world. The latest spectacle is an Ivy League professor threatening to sue her students because, she claims, their “anti-intellectualism” violated her civil rights.
Priya Venkatesan taught English at Dartmouth College. She maintains that some of her students were so unreceptive of “French narrative theory” that it amounted to a hostile working environment. She is also readying lawsuits against her superiors, who she says papered over the harassment, as well as a confessional exposé, which she promises will “name names.”
An article about some whiny, thin-skinned professor (no doubt, an affirmative-action hire) at Dartmouth. This, though, was my favorite part:
I once wrote a term paper for a lit-crit course where I “deconstructed” the MTV program “Pimp My Ride.” A typical passage: “Each episode is a text of inescapable complexity . . . Our received notions of what constitutes a ride are constantly subverted and undermined.” It received an A.
(If you’re not familiar with “Pimp My Ride,” it’s a program where people nominate either their own, or a friend’s beater of a car. Then a team of automotive specialists — who are very good at what they do — descend on it and rebuild it from the wheels up, topping it off with a custom paint job and enough video and audio gear to annoy other motorists from five blocks away.)
