The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Turning Into An Andrew McCarthy Fan

by Smitty (h/t Big Journalism) I followed Michael Walsh’s advice and read Andrew McCarthy’s review of the new book on Saul Alinsky. McCarthy, who wrote Grand Jihad, sees through the sycophant author to the diabolical mind of Alinsky. The last two sentences of the review, where another Alinsky acolyte, Obama, has attained the White House, […]

Can Jim Rutledge and Charles Lollar Beat Barbara Mikulski and Steny Hoyer?

Why the heck not? If my alma mater, Jacksonville (Ala.) State University, can beat Ole Miss, anything is possible. If there really is going to be a Republican tsunami Nov. 2

Bloggers Surprised GOP Under-reacting To Unproven Tea Party Commitment To Long-Term Agend– Oh . . . Shiny!

by Smitty Without the slightest disrespect to Dan Riehl and his point, the GOP isn’t ready to lead, one should ask the question: lead what? First, I’m not here to pat myself on the back. On the Geller scale, I would fall well short of asserting I’m doing “enough” to support American renewal. Second, let’s […]

Rule 5 Sunday Part 1

by Smitty What can I say? I’m rather a sad little blogging junkie. As Wombat Rampant noted about Rule 5 the night before Restoring Honor, “You’ve got to give the people what they want.” In other words, the opposite of the White House anti-Rule 5 disaster in the Oval Office. The Twitter hash was brutal. […]

Conservative Girl With A Voice Is A Bristol Palin Fan

by Smitty We’ll see if it’s still rattling around the TiVo when we get home, but CGWAV likes Bristol on the Jay Leno show. My question is how she’d fare in a celebrity cage match with ol’ Dirty Sexy Politics. I’m guessing that M&M’s candy butt wouldna do so weel.

Palin Derangement Syndrome Outbreak: There Are Still Five A’s in Raaaaacism

“With enough courage, you can do without a reputation.” — Rhett Butler, Gone With the Wind Some things are predictable — i.e., that the Palin-haters would decide it was a good time to recycle the old SPLC/LGF attacks on me in order to exploit my interview with Todd Palin for a guilt-by-association smear. When Rachel […]

Ladd Ehlinger WSJ Making-Of Clip

by Smitty Ladd Ehlinger tweets that the WSJ has finally posted the behind-the-scenes look at the filming of his now-viral Jane Harman ad: It appears that, for reasons of good taste, the Stacy McCain covered-in-pudding moment was edited out, leading to outbursts of hate in the Haight. Go, Mattie Fein! Also, watch carefully, as John […]

Jax State 49, Ole Miss 48

In double overtime! Down 48-41 in double overtime, Jacksonville State found itself in a fourth-and-long situation. After a few seconds of mad scrambling, quarterback Coty Blanchard flung the ball to Kevyn Cooper in the end zone, over 30 yards away. Cooper barely got one foot in bounds for the score. And then, Jacksonville State coach […]
