Jurassic Parks: Stevie and the Dinosaurs, Part 8
(NOTE: Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park series is one of the best franchises on film, particularly if you like dinosaurs. For the past several months I’ve been running a strikingly unbalanced review of the four films, because I’m a big fan of parts 1 & 3, while distinctly unenthusiastic over parts 2 & 4.

Wow, those crazy Republicans, eh? And those crazy Democrats! As a nation, we’re on the verge of a nervous breakdown!

Williamson has a column up at NR entitled “Chicago and Rahm Emanuel: Partners in Corruption” in which he opines “Mayor Emanuel is in a tough spot just now: A Chicago police officer was involved in a controversial shooting, and the mayor appears to have been involved in a cover-up,…
Three cheers for Ted Cruz! On select occasions only!
Yes, Teddie can be a shit, often, but his recent interview appearing in Bloomberg Politics, in which he denounced his quasi doppelganger/evil twin Marco Rubio as being basically Hillary Clinton in a mansuit, was something of an eye opener. Cruz, rapping with Bloomberg scribe Sahil Kapur, came up with the following bon mots, among others:…
