  • Gregory Kane: Carrey got ugly when he dropped the mask of civility

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Sun, Apr 7, 2013

    Count me among those very few conservatives who are not -- repeat, not -- angry with "comedian" and actor Jim Carrey. I put the word "comedian" in quotes for a reason. It's in the interests of full disclosure. You might want to take what follows with a grain of salt, because Carrey is one...

  • Gregory Kane: PC Thought Police target Dr. Ben Carson

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Wed, Apr 3, 2013

    It's a combined operation of the liberal, lamestream media and America's Politically Correct Thought Police. The goal is to get renowned Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson to shut the hell up. As long as Carson was successfully separating conjoined twins, he was cool with the lamestream...

  • Gregory Kane: Camden's lesson in failure

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Sun, Mar 31, 2013

    This is almost shooting-fish-in-a-barrel easy. Writing something about Camden, N.J., public schools being so dismal that the state had to take them over? New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a Republican, announced early last week the reasons for the takeover, and it's hard to argue with the stats,...

  • Gregory Kane: Some veterans still offended that Hanoi fought back

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Wed, Mar 27, 2013

    Sometimes the voice of dissent must be a conservative one. Unlike members of the American Legion, other veterans' groups and Sen. John McCain, I was not offended when producers of the CBS show "The Amazing Race" decided to use the site of a downed B-52 bomber as a kind of prop. I wasn't...

  • Gregory Kane: The wrestler who helped bring justice to Steubenville

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Sun, Mar 24, 2013

    Until recently, Trent Mays was the quarterback for Steubenville High School's football team. Sean McGhee is just a wrestler. The difference in the sport of choice for the two teens probably has nothing to do with their worldview or values, but I'm going to make that stretch anyway, because they...

  • Gregory Kane: Brain-dead haters operate on conservative neurosurgeon

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Wed, Mar 20, 2013

    Wasn't I supposed to get a wagon to welcome me to the lunatic fringe? That's where I am, you know: out on the lunatic fringe, with all those other conservative types that took issue with Baltimore neurosurgeon Ben Carson being called a "token" black. Actually, to be fair to American...

  • Gregory Kane: Newtown fever strikes in Maryland

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Sun, Mar 17, 2013

    I've never lost a child, neither from suicide nor any other cause. So I can't even pretend to know the pain Chris McComas is feeling. Around this time last year, McComas had a 15-year-old daughter named Grace, who attended Glenelg High School in Maryland's Howard County. On Easter Sunday of...

  • Gregory Kane: Court can't humble New York's nanny mayor

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Wed, Mar 13, 2013

    Nothing could be finer than seeing an enemy of liberty taken down several notches. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the nation's No. 1 enemy of liberty, was recently taken down at least a couple hundred notches. And we have New York Supreme Court Justice Milton A. Tingling Jr. to thank...

  • Gregory Kane: Beware liberals' hyperbole

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Sun, Mar 10, 2013

    Not that I planned it this way, but for the past year I've been quite the frequent visitor to Johns Hopkins Hospital. The shortest, quickest route from the venerable Baltimore institution back to my home in the northwest section of the city takes me past a collection of buildings far less...

  • Gregory Kane: Hannity, Ellison should bury the hatchet

    Gregory Kane

    Published: Wed, Mar 6, 2013

    Earth to Sean Hannity and Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison: Gentlemen, please bury your beef. Ellison is an African-American and a Muslim, the first member of his faith to serve in Congress. He's also a Democrat. Hannity, as if he needs an introduction, is the host of a Fox News Channel show...
