From Nanny Bloomberg to Wet Nurse Bloomberg
Mayor Bloomberg has been working overtime these past weeks to stay at the top of my least favorite politicians list. Now he’s mandated hospitals treat baby formula like it is a controlled substance. If a new mother requests it, not … Continue reading

Woody Allen Interviews William F. Buckley
First, who knew Woody Allen had his own show? Second, can you imagine a conservative getting that sort of warm applause on a TV show today?
