Our Tolerant Liberal Overlords (Unexpectedly!) Mock Dancing Lesbian

She insists on being known as “A Conservative Lesbian, Cynthia Yockey,” because that gets her to the top of any alphabetically ordered blogroll, at least until I change the name of this blog to “AAA Homophobic Sexist Patriarchal Theocratic Right-Wing Swine.” But I digress . . .

Who Wants to See Tina Korbe’s Thighs?

The title of this post is not a hypothetical question, because last week the aforesaid Miss Korbe joined her Hot Air colleague Ed Morrissey for a video interview with Rick Santorum, which I didn’t see until somebody brought it to my attention yesterday: Our keen-eyed readers will note that at the 0:28 mark of the [...]

Post-CPAC Rack

by Smitty A little nap with the World’s Youngest Blogger after church on Sunday. Frequent commenter and very old friend Jeff had dropped Da Tech Guy by somewhere around midnight.
