Democrats have been demonizing the movement in the most crude terms. Every time there is a public act of violence, the immediate response is to look for a Tea Party connection, which never is found.

DIPLOMAD It's been an eventful week for the media: A government shutdown; a glitch-infested roll out of the disastrous Obamacare; and, of course, a deranged white male Tea Party member with a Ted Cruz pin carrying an AR-15 attacked the White House while screaming racial and Islamophobic epithets. Well, sort of. That last one, not so much, and much to the chagrin of the liberal media and politicians. It turns out, of course, that all the shots fired were by the Keystone Capitol Hill cops. Those Guardians of the Peace, members of that Thin Blue Line standing between order and chaos, after terrorizing downtown DC, shutting Congress with a fusillade of rounds, engaging in a wild twenty-vehicle chase, crashing a couple of cars, injuring one of their own, managed to shoot and kill a disturbed unarmed single mother apparently AFTER her car had come to a halt and presented no danger. One wonders where the Trayvon Martin supporters are on this. It also conjures up memories of last year's NYPD shooting orgy near the Empire State Building in which the cops pumped out some 16 rounds to kill a subject, who never fired a round, and wounded several innocent bystanders. The police are out of control. This cop craziness has to stop, if for no other reason than to allow the media to focus on the real danger, you know, white male Tea Party members with AR-15s.

Yet Another New Study: Children with Same-Sex Parents Fare Worse Using Canadian Census data, a very large and therefore representative database, Canadian professor Douglas Allen of Simon Frazier University finds that children raised by intact, married biological parents do better than children raised by same-sex couples. From the abstract, yes, published in a peer-reviewed journal:Here, a 20 % sample of the 2006 Canada census is used to identify self-reported children living with same-sex parents, and to examine the association of household type with children’s high school graduation rates. This large random sample allows for control of parental marital status, distinguishes between gay and lesbian families, and is large enough to Read More ...
