James Taranto makes the case against the contraception mandate, pointing to its basis in doctrinaire feminism. (Michelle Obama?) It has moved from a right to a mandate. That's why I perceive the work of Satan behind so much of the way the world is changing in these latter days: Socialism, the "progressive" movement, Fascism, Communism, wars beyond all historic scales, modern weapons of wholesale killing, the Holocaust, Feminism (NOT women's rights!), the sexual revolution, the depopulation of the Western World and so forth. I know that there are many who will write me off as a nut for having these beliefs, but they are no less insane than the fixation of the left on Fox News, Rush Limbaugh and Andrew Breitbart and conservatives in general. I don't generally believe in global conspiracies, but I just took a look at MedidMatters.com which describes itself as follows: "Media Matters for America is a Web-based, not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media." The presumption that conservatism is the source misinformation in the U.S. media, I find laughable, since conservatives have so little control of media in the U.S. I recognize that the is mutual distrust between the right and left. Some of it exceeds the bounds of rationality. The fact that I see an evil influence at work in the world isn't new and that sense is shared by people all across the political spectrum. Evil is a fact. The fact that I view it as an intelligent force shouldn't disturb anyone, since Medid Matters seem to see it embodied in all who disagree with it. h

I saw this on TV the other night. I think it's a problem when you start referring to yourself in the third person.

Mitt won Michigan by 5 points after a scare from Santorum, and won Arizona went for Romney as predicted by the polls. Both will claim victories in Michigan, but I think Santorum is at the end of the road, or at least sees it from here. Now we'll see how well they can run multi-state campaigns,
