Lurid Las Vegas Details Emerge

by Smitty Stacy has called in with some tale of sneaking into a no-press Ann Coulter event with a recording device. Knowing Stacy’s non-command of all things technological as I do, I suspect a clay tablet and a reed stylus until other evidence is subsequently proffered. Unfortunately, details of this famous event will have to [...]

BUMPED: A Tease From Searchlight, Nevada

by Smitty Correction: Fixed erroneous mention of Matthew Vadum. SEARCHLIGHT, NV. The event was huge. Stacy phoned in a bit of a report, before the Battery Gods frowned and his phone passed out. Andrew Breitbart, Andrew Marcus, Andrea Shea King, Victoria Jackson, Chris Cassone and Matthew Vadum were in attendance. Photos and video of Sarah [...]

The Connection Between Lefty Dissenters and Righty Mobs

by Smitty No body wants to admit it, but the American good nature has been abused. We respected the Left during the Bush administration, and their patriotic right to say things with which we disagree. Watch this discussion, and consider the possibility that there is, in fact, a low-intensity ideological conflict underway: Michael Graham needs [...]

Fortune Minister to Jerusalem, Regardless of America

by Smitty It would have been equally bad for the President to have treated Abbas as he did Netanyahu. Irrespective of how inverted the treatment of Honduras, Britain, Iran, &c, each new bit of creepiness and slipshod statesmanship brings fresh outrage. Instapundit offered some counter-arguments, which mitigate some concern, but not much. Let those of [...]

‘The Activist Has Landed’

This was the text of an SMS sent from Ali Akbar to Stacy McCain upon Ali’s arrival at McCarran Airport in Las Vegas. The Hyper-Activist Duo are on the way to Searchlight, Nevada, where they intend, one supposes, to feel a tiny tremor of remorse, somewhere around the left ankle, for the seeds of doom [...]

Eve of the Showdown in Searchlight

LAS VEGAS — Just got back from Searchlight, where I reconnoitered the town and the rally site, about two miles north of Harry Reid’s hometown. A quick video report: One reason I wanted to make the trip Friday was to scope out the route. When Ali arrives at 7 a.m. Saturday, we’ll have to drive [...]

Some Say That Sufficient Falsehood Can Enable Truth

by Smitty Here is a ~2 minute summary of the major low-lights in ObamaCare. Brief and bitter, like a mugging:

Next Stop: Searchlight

LAS VEGAS, Nevada — Just a quick note before I make the run to Searchlight with Steve Foley to check out the scene before tomorrow’s big Tea Party rally. (See today’s front-page story in the Las Vegas Sun.) I’m now blogging from the headquarters of Liberty First PAC, otherwise known as Eric Odom’s kitchen. Today [...]

Do Dudes Even Worry About Blogger Gender?

by Smitty Dr. Helen picks up Susannah Breslin’s question. Villainous Company also posted on the topic. Given that we’re all looking at a browser, the gender of the author seems tangential at best. Either the post triggers thought, or it does not. WTF chromosomes? And does the typical male blogger ever consider this question? Can [...]

Charles Krauthammer Is Wrong About The Main Argument Against ObamaCare

by Smitty From Fox News All Stars, via the Corner The main argument against this Obamacare is it’s going to destroy our economy. All the numbers in it are phony. It’s going to create a huge amount of debt. That may be the proximal cause, Mr. Krauthammer. The main argument is that We The People [...]

Reason #7,126 Why Alyssa Milano
Should Be Following Me on Twitter

Just in case you were wondering: LAS VEGAS – Now Tweeting completely naked in Room 249 at the Orleans Hotel. About to get in the shower. Checkout time in 1 hr, 17 minutes. All I need is just one re-Tweet, Alyssa. Now it’s nearly checkout time, which means I’m fully dressed — including the fedora [...]

Hmmm. Why Did Jeri Thompson Endorse Sue Lowden Today?

LAS VEGAS — Just settling in for an hour or two of reporting before I head out to Searchlight this afternoon (it’s 9:30 a.m. out here) and I saw this column by Jeri Thompson in The American Spectator: In the Senate race to defeat Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid, we have several candidates who want [...]
