Let Berg’s Seventh Law Be Your Guide
To jog the memory – Berg’s Seventh Law reads “When a Liberal / “Progressive” issues a group defamation or assault on conservatives’ ethics, character, humanity or respect for liberty or the truth, they are at best projecting, and at worst drawing attention away from their own misdeeds.” So – if the Democrats accuse any Republican,…

But Remember…
It’s the right wing that’s always hinting at violence. Really!

That’s So 1977…
I’m old enough to remember when the American political and media establishment wracked itself into knots over the fact that the executive branch had been using the CIA and Hoover’s FBI to spy on domestic political opposition. Among my earliest memories of politics and news – after Watergate, naturally – were the Church Commission hearings,…

The Shorter “Every Argument With A Minnesota Gun Control Advocate”
THEY: You’re paranoid! Nobody is coming for your guns! Period! ME: The Democrats have been introducing bills that would ban vast swathes of guns, and have been telegraphing that they see the whole thing as an incremental process. Perhaps you could stand to open your mind and learn a bit. THEY: I don’t have time…

Berg’s Seventh Law In The News – Sort Of
Psychological Projection is when I assume you have the bad traits that I deny I have. A liar will assume everyone else is a liar. It’s embodied in Berg’s Seventh Law.A mobster predicts Trump will have Cohen “whacked” in prison because that’s what happens to snitches. The story itself is proof Trump isn’t a mobster. If he was…

Six Thousand Words On Berg’s Laws
I could write six thousand words about Berg’s Seventh, Sixteenth and Seventeenth laws if I wanted. Or I could just display this: Either way. Mission accomplished.

Care Required
I’m not sure how old the adage is – but liberals should take keen advice from the phrase “only give your side the power you’re not afraid of your enemy having”. For example, many on the left express worry about the Trump administration stance – hostility – towards the media. They do this, apparently, forgetting…

Berg’s Seventh Law Is Getting Creaky And Worn Out From Constant Over-Use
If a conservative were to say bla blq bla that Jimmy Kimmel just bla bla bla yadda yadda: In the place of ABC’s late-night Jimmy Kimmel: The “Man Show” Jimmy Kimmel. The only thing missing were the women on trampolines. Kimmel took aim Thursday at the Christian proprietor of Masterpiece Cakeshop in Colorado. For the…

Berg’s Seventh Law Is Universal And Unfailing
When Democrats whinge about “right wing violence”… …well, you know what comes next, don’t you?

Orwell Was A Pollyanna
Progs at Evergreen State (but I repeat myself) equate science and white supremacy: Earlier this week, some graffiti was spotted on campus that sought to couterpose intersectionality and the sciences, equating the latter with white supremacy. Facilities staff have completed the chore of cleaning up the graffiti. Bret Weinstein – the former ESU bio prof…

Berg’s Seventh Law Is Universal And All-Seeing
Can you imagine if a significant Republican were to acknowledge that violence was a good thing in pursuit of political ends? No, not Donald Trump urging his supporters to “hit back”, at a time when people were, y’know, hitting them first. .No, actually forming groups and going out and beating up people who dissent from the GOP.…

Berg’s Seventh Law Is Universal And Inviolable
Gun violence prevention control grouips are fond of whipping up “popular” anger against “the gun lobby” – portrayed as an immense, boundlessly wealthy group of heartless white guys with three piece suits and cigars, cackling with glee at the deaths of innocent children. Big Left has worked overtime to try to demonize civil rights groups,…

Since We’re Talking About Harassment
Al Franken resigned so that the full weight of the Democrat noise machine can turn its attention to attacking Roy Moore – thereby returning the narrative to “The Republican War On Women”. Speaking of which – has there ever been a better Berg’s Seventh Law violation than “The War On Women”? Anyway – this past…

Hate Crime
Big Left has been warning us that there’s a wave of ideological hate crime just around the corner, and that you gotta watch out for those crazy right-wingers. It’s a Berg’s Seventh Law occurrence, of course. A gunman attacked a Republican congressional baseball practice this morning. His mission? “Kill as many Republicans as possible”. Shortly after…

Shot In The Dark: Today’s Learned Opinion, 11 Years Ago
Kurt Schlichter notes that “You Can Tell What Leftists Are Doing By What They Accuse Conservatives Of Doing” Sound familiar? Of course it does. This was codified in 2006, in “Berg’s Seventh Law of Liberal Projection“. To wit: “When a Liberal issues a group defamation or assault on conservatives’ ethics, character, humanity or respect for…

All Roads Lead To George
The more politics I watch, the more I realize Berg’s Seventh Law – which started as a flippant observation of casual hypocrisy…: “When a Liberal issues a group defamation or assault on conservatives’ ethics, character, humanity or respect for liberty or the truth, they are at best projecting, and at worst drawing attention away from their…

Chanting Points Memo: Fake Coverage Of Fake News
During the 2010 Minnesota gubernatorial race, the “Alliance for a Better Minnesota” spread a story – Target was “anti-gay”. They weren’t, of course; Target has always been socially progressive to a fault; by 2010, they spun themselves into a fair tizzy over every PC fad that came along. They still do. But they’d donated money…

The Most Ironic Berg’s Seventh Law Violation
It’s long been one of the Dems’ favorite – and most childish – chanting points to say that Republicans, being stodgy fundamentalist WASPS, want to make sex impossible to have. If you follow Berg’s Seventh Law, you know the Democrats are actually doing something worse (or actually enacting the slur). And you would, as always,…

Be Careful Out There
I suspect that Hillary Clinton has enough states with enough electoral votes to win the election – at that the vote-generation systems in her blue-city base of operations will generates any votes needed to give her the win. 1 And while any given liberal is no more likely to be violent than any given conservative, the…

Berg’s Seventh Law Is Eternal And Omnipresent
Know how I knew there was a Democrat plan to use physical violence on pro-Trump and pro-GOP rallies? Because the media has been spending so much time talking about the “threat” of GOP violence against Democrats. When I heard NPR last week solemnly intoning about the “threat” of “people in open-carry states standing around polling…

Berg’s Seventh Law Is Universal And Immutable, Part MXMVI
Joe Doakes from Como Park emails: Democrats claimed Hillary’s emails were not classified when sent, they were retroactively changed from unclassified to classified to make Hillary look bad. That always seemed a bit odd to me. Why would the Democrat administration be trying to harm the Democrat candidate? Now, it turns out the opposite was…

Berg’s Seventh Law: Universal And Immutable
Remember when Democrats couldn’t stop talking about the Koch brothers (who aren’t even among the top fifty political donors in the country) and the American Legislative Exchange Committee, a “think tank” utterly similar to an array of such groups on both sides of the aisle? And you – a smart person – asked “why all…

Everything Two, Four, Six, 12 And 22 Years Old Is New Again
What does the “Alt-Right” have in common with 2014’s Koch Brothers, 2012’s “ALEC”, 2010’s “Tea Party”, 2004’s “neocons”, and 1994’s “Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy?” Everything! One of the great staples of politics – in this case, the left, although the right does it too (although with less cynical panache or institutional momentum) – is “finding a boogeyman…

I Know You Are…
Victor Davis Hanson reminds us: If you don’t like something Trump has said, just take a deep breath… …and remember when a Democrat inevitably said, or did, something much worse: Trump reprehensibly has urged his supporters to physically tangle with opponents. But, after Chicago, did he emulate a presidential urge “to argue with them and…

The Mythical White Christian Terrorist
They’re back. In the wake of the shooting at the abortion mill in Colorado Springs, and the shooting in Minneapolis (and to a lesser extent last week’s shootings in San Bernardino, which the left tried its level best to jam into the template), the talking heads of the left are furrowing their brows and warning us, yet…
