Frisco Based MSN Travel Writer Disgusted By 'Ugly' American Travelers
Diane Vadino, travel writer for MSN, seems to be just as disgusted by Americans who travel abroad as those foreigners whom she quotes in hers titled "How American Travelers Are Viewed Abroad: The U.K.".

The Left Eats Its Own: N.Y. Times Scorns Sexism, Racism of Sixties Art
There are articles about the hippy-dippy 1960s that seem designed to show how the left can eat its own.

Are Real Costs of Dealing With Climate Change Being Hidden From the Pu
As Al Gore and his band of not so merry global warming alarmists in buses and in the press try to convince Americans that they need to alter behaviors in order to save the planet, an inconvenient truth is being cynically withheld: this is going to cost a lot of money.Of course, one of the delicious hypocrisies is that these are the same people who decry the current economic boom as only helping…

We don’t…
