World’s Most Dubious Storybook Romance Turns Out to Be Fiction

C’mon, did you really buy into the Bristol Palin-Levi Johnston reunion? Ricky Hollywood is far too deeply in love with himself to permit anyone else to intrude. In fact, as a pathological narcissist, Levi is incapable of recognizing other people as fully human. They are merely objects which have no purpose for existence other than as means of his own […]

Death by Political Correctness?

“Everyone must come to grips with and make sense of their own failures. Excuse-making, blame-shifting, scapegoating — ‘It wasn’t my fault!’ — prevents us from learning the lessons of our failures. . . .

Victoria Jackson In A Retro Moment

by Smitty (h/t NiceDeb) Somehow, explaining the current situation to colonials results in guffaws. It’s dated last November. Missed it somehow. NOTE from RSM: “A Fat Man Flying!”

Raise Fareed Zakaria’s Taxes!

I agree with that part of his argument, although his argument for raising everybody else’s taxes by repealing the Bush tax cuts is kinda lame. On the other hand, considering that he is the highly-paid foreign editor of a bankrupt magazine that just sold for $1, maybe Fareed Zakaria could get laid off and collect 99 […]
