The Other McCain

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

It’s All Over for Lisa the Loser

Joe Miller won the Alaska Republican nomination for Senate, and I’m tired of people pretending that there’s some way Lisa Murkowski can undo her defeat. It can’t happen, it won’t happen, and every bit of lip-service given to hypothetical miracle resurrection scenarios where it could happen only encourages Murkowski in her delusional belief that “it […]

‘The Fools That Bring Disaster’

There were other things I wanted to write about this evening, but now I feel like I’m obligated to write a society-page feature because the Drama Queen decided to make her debut at the cotillion: Ken Mehlman, President Bush’s campaign manager in 2004 and a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, has told family and […]

Skippy, […]

Senator John McCain: Poster Child For 17th Amendment Repeal

by Smitty Yeah, Ruling Class: yeah. It is only natural that the system, rigged to favor the incumbent, returns anyone having a pulse not discovered with a dead girl or a live boy to office, irrespective of competence. Thus, it’s difficult to blame any State for sticking with an old warhorse, *cough*West Virginia*cough*. Note that, […]

Attending A Uniquely Cool School

by Smitty The Naval Academy has a special claim to fame among American schools, and it was an honor to attend. Thank you, taxpayers! It was here that Ensign Albert Michelson conducted experiments to determine the speed of light with reasonable accuracy, which informed the work of Albert Einstein. Should we name more sons Albert? […]

Why Joe Miller Won

“You can accomplish much, if you don’t care who gets the credit.” — Ronald Reagan Frankly, I’ve been patting myself on my back all morning about the prescience of my July 6 American Spectator feature about Joe Miller: Any disinterested political observer would be tempted to rate Murkowski a lead-pipe cinch for re-election. The incumbent […]
